What happened at Aberfan? That is the question everyone is asking after watching The Crown season 3. This video is the full true story, giving you all the information and what happened and crucially why it happened. Disaster struck in Aberfan, Wales, the coal mining village of South Wales, on Friday 21 October 1966, leaving the country shocked.

I learned of Aberfan from my parents. It had a profound impact on people at the time. It is just one of the most sad and tragic things that anyone could hear about. How disgusting that the NCB could take some of the funds that were raised for the families to clean up the slag heaps. Bloody disgusting. I've just starting watching The Crown and love historical programs like this.

Working class people were always treated badly. Aberfan is relatively recent as well. I think it has always had a deep impact in Wales.

Not one person has ever been compensated for this. It is disgraceful.
