The Accrington Pals By Peter Whelan
In September 1914 Accrington was the smallest town in Britain to raise a battalion to fight in World War One. In less than twenty minutes on 1 July 1916, two hundred and thirty five of them died and three hundred and fifty were wounded in the Battle of the Somme.
Peter Whelan’s moving drama follows the lives of the soldiers, wives, daughters and lovers as the ‘Pals’ prepare for the fatal, final push into no man’s land.
