"So it would be exciting to see the BBC drama screened in the same place together with the locals and people who are interested in this story of the coiners.”
Donations will be collected for Heptonstall Museum.
The highly-anticipated drama, which was filmed in Calderdale, is based on the book by Benjamin Myers about the rise of David Hartley and the Cragg Vale Coiners.
