Featuring original newsreel footage of key people and events that shaped 1960, including elvis presley, macmillan v khrushchev, princess margaret’s wedding, the launch of britain’s first nuclear submarine dreadnought – and much more. A year to remember, the classic series that recalls the definitive events of the twentieth century, compiles contemporary news coverage drawn from the world famous bbc and british pathé archives. This programme details not only the major political issues that dominated the day, but also key social changes and cultural trends. This hour long episode chronicles that remarkable year, 1960. This was the year during which, in algeria, france seemed to be on the brink of civil war in the congo, belgium beat a hasty retreat, leaving bloodshed in its wake in south africa, the black majority began to fight the cruelties of apartheid in berlin, thousands of refugees sought freedom from state communism and in the skies, gary powers was shot down in his u2 spy plane.on the lighter side, princess margaret wed in westminster abbey, tommy steele married a windmill girl, and elvis presley left the united states army to much press attention.1960 was certainly a year to remember.
