Thought I'd point this one out, the film doesn't get much of a showing. It's the story of the Tolpuddle Martyrs, a group of Victorian farm labourers who get transported to Australia for trying to form the first trade union.

Fantastic acting, beautifully shot, and an amazing true story. Watch it for some of our industrial and social history.

Probably best to record it and watch it in one or two sittings, as it's a bit on the long side (3hrs or so plus adverts)
