Logo for Cadbury is Our Longbridge - Episode 1

Miles Warde tells the inside story of the closure of Cadbury's Somerdale factory near Bristol. Two years in the making, the series reveals how Somerdale became caught up in a global story. Cadbury first announced the closure of this historic site at the end of 2007. Miles follows the protests, the frustrations, and the raised hopes of a workforce who believed that Kraft's takeover meant their jobs could be saved. Production is now largely moving to Poland instead.
