What Is The Accident About?

A Welsh community devastated by tragedy is forced to confront difficult truths amid the search for justice.

The town of Glyngolau, Wales, has lost its coal mine and steel mill, leaving everyone in financial ruin. A large factory complex, offering 1,000 local jobs, is being built in the town by Kallbridge Developments for a Japanese firm. Iwan, head of the town council, worked hard to secure the project. Iwan’s 15-year-old daughter, Leona, is a juvenile delinquent and small-time drug dealer; his wife, Polly, catches Leona in bed with a 30+ year old man. Leona takes eight of her teenaged friends to sneak into the building site, to cause destruction and “annoy my Dad”.

Their actions cause some gas canisters to explode, leading the building to collapse, killing site manager Alan and eight of the teens – ringleader Leona is the sole survivor. Polly leads a campaign to find out who was responsible for the incident. A public inquiry is held, apportioning the largest blame on Leona and her friends, for breaking in to the site and for damaging the material that exploded. A portion of the blame is placed on Alan, for allowing the gas canisters to be stored improperly. The final portion is laid on the company, which has to pay large fines for breaches of health and safety guidelines. Polly and Iwan have a tempestuous relationship, struggling with Leona’s injuries and the jealousy of the other parents. Polly also suspects Iwan may know more than he’s letting on.

The last episode of the series was released on November 14, 2019 in the US.
