'Historic' Tower Colliery still in business

History was made 20 years ago when miners at the last deep pit in Wales used their redundancy money to buy back the mine.

Tower Colliery workers marched back to work in January 1995, a year after the mine had closed.

It reopened and soon started making a profit.

Carwyn Jones looks back and finds out what the future holds.
