Angela Rippon and Richard Stilgoe invite you to look back at 1978: the year of the bitter winter, the non-summer, the Lib-Lab pact. the non-election. The year of three Popes, Camp David, sanctions busting and 5 per cent pay. The year Cambridge sank. Boycott was sacked and Colonel B was named.
It was a good year for Evita, a bad year for Scottish soccer. The first test-tube baby was born. Princess Margaret was divorced and Jomo Kenyatta died.
Reflecting on this dramatic year, Fred Emery with Mrs Edna Healey , Sir Freddie Laker
Hugh Scanlon , Paul Johnson and guests from politics, sport and showbusiness including Janet Brown with Mrs Thatcher 's Diary
