barrin' our way to the coal face and safety.

I'll smash a way through!

I'll smash a way through!

Steady, Nick. Steady.

Look, lads. Look.

Here's what we want. Here's cable.

- This will do the job, lads.

- It's just possible.

Whoever fires a shot with that

won't stand a dog's chance.

Well, it'll be short and sweet for one,

and that's better than slow death for us all.

- I'll have a smack at it.

- Well, if it's got to be done, we'll draw lots.

- That's it.

- It's you and me for it, Nick.

They have more dependin' on them

than we have.

Oh, no. We're not having that.

Not likely. We're all in this.

Leave it to me and Nick.

Tip-it.

- So it's up to you, Dave.

- Not yet.

Me and Ned's going to have our chance.

Tip-it.

You lose, son.

Well, it's you and me for the final, Em.

Your call, Dave.

- Now, listen, Em -

- I said, your call.

Tip-it.

- You fellas get back there.

- Listen, my boy-

Get back I say,

and leave this to me.

There isn't much time.

Careful.

I'll place the charge for you.

Thanks, Dave.

Let's say a word for the boy.

Our Father...

we, trapped here

in the depths of the mine...

are asking you to look down

on that boy who is risking his life for us.

In our savior's name...

- amen.

- Amen.

For the last time, Em,

will you listen to me?

- It fell to my lot, I tell you.

- I know.

But there's your mother and Dilys

and the other children.

They must take their chance.

- And there's Gwen.

- For God's sake, shut up!

You're tearing the guts out of me.

Get back to the others.

All right.

Then go!

Well, Em -

All the best, son.

- Is he hurt?

- I can't see a mark on him.

Emlyn, Emlyn.

Where's David?

What's happened?

So he did it after all.

David! David!

Dave.

He's dead.

I am the way and the life.

- Amen.

- Amen.

Come on, son.

We must finish what we set out to do.

You stay with him, Seth.

We must push on to the coal face.

Come on.
