I remember in the late 80's or early 90's some staff at the BBC where on strike and this affected output. Pink Floyd where about to play a concert and it was due to be broadcast live.
It was looking as though the concert would not be broadcast but at the last minute the dispute was settled and we got to see it.
Does anyone know where and when that concert was and does anyone know if this concert was the reason the dispute was settled?
I am not certain if this is correct, but I have heard that this concert happened near the Berlin Wall and played a small part in the fall of the wall. Can anyone confirm this?

Not too sure about Floyd solving a strike.
But the Berlin wall gig, was performed by Roger Waters only and NOT pink Floyd.
The concert itself had no responsibility for the wall coming down, but was used as a celebration for the 2 united halves of Germany, very soon after the wall did come down

I have heard that tale before too, although I am pretty sure there were other bands involved too. All I know is never let Floyd bake you brownies, I ended up drinking milk straight from the cow and it turned out to be a yak.
