Description
Scrap by Mike Padgett tells the story of Phil Steele's struggle to find a new purpose in life after the closure of his local pit. Ten years on, Phil is still grappling with the loss of his identity and dignity as a miner. His family is feeling the effects, with his wife Deb pursuing her own dreams of running a café and their son Gav showing little interest in following in his father's footsteps. Phil clings to the past by working on his classic BSA Golden Flash motorbike, a restoration project that holds sentimental value for him. However, this obsession puts him at odds with an old enemy from his picket line days, leading Phil to confront the reality of his inability to move on and the dangers it poses to himself and those he loves. As Phil navigates this difficult period, he is forced to re-evaluate his priorities and find a new sense of purpose. Will he be able to overcome his past and build a better future for himself and his family?
