1972
Introduced by Jeremy Vine. 1972 was the year of Bloody Sunday, the Munich Olympics, mass unemployment and power cuts. Music got glittery and Monty Python tickled TV.
Radio 2's audio journey through five decades reaches 1972. Jeremy Vine introduces a collage of the music, news, people and programmes - as they were heard at the time - without any commentary, analysis, or hindsight.
1972 is the year of Bloody Sunday and the Munich Olympics. Unemployment hits a million, there are nationwide power cuts, and the music business reaches for its glitter ball with Ziggy Stardust, Virginia Plain and Gary Glitter.
Meanwhile, on Radio 2, Terry Wogan is Fighting the Flab and on television, Monty Python are celebrating spam, spam, spam, spam.
