Cod. War. Women. And Beer. 

Why Grimsby? Why Now? 

Grimsby. 11th March 1961. Landing day. And the end of the Cod War. Since 1958 the men have been going to sea with the threat of war looming over them. But now they’re free, they’re back in town and they’re ready to head down to the ship's disco. 

And of course there’s the women they left behind…

It will be 7 years before the triple trawler tragedy, it will be 11 before the second cod war and 15 before the fishing industry collapses on itself all together. The fishing community of Grimsby have been forgotten by all, society and government alike, and yet they are, still to this day, 115 times more likely to suffer injury than any other workforce. Their story needs to be told and Grimm is here to do it. 

After its sold out 2023 hit preview, Grimm returns promising laughs, scrapes and  a whole heap of fish - this is Grimsby as it was. So, grab your mate, skipper or loved one and meet us at the ship's disco where there’s a pint with your name on it!
