In the trenches of Gallipoli, two rival Yorkshire workforces—once enemies in the factory—must put aside their hatred to survive. Divided by pride and suspicion, they’re forced into labor and left on the fringes of battle, until a tragic accident on the beach finally forces them to fight as one. With the Turks breaking through, they’re sent to hold reserve trenches, where their unlikely unity becomes their greatest strength. The Worst Of Pals finds its meaning not in victory, but in the bond forged under fire.
