1980: Ruefrex – Belfast Punk Documentary | Cross The Line

Cross The Line profiles the Belfast punk band Ruefrex – four young lads from the Shankill Road area – as they balance their day-to-day working lives with the demands of playing gigs in troubles-ravaged Northern Ireland.

Band members Paul Burgess, Tom Coulter, Jackie Forgie and Allan Clarke discuss their reasons for forming a punk band, and detail some of the hurdles they’ve faced along the way.

Clip taken from Cross The Line, originally broadcast on BBC Northern Ireland, 25 July, 1980.
