1968: The year that changed the world?


1968
"In this four part series, using archive recordings and music from the time, Sir John Tusa examines what made 1968 such a climactic year. Student protests, Soviet might, assassinations, war and famine - although these dramatic events took place more than a generation ago they seem incredibly immediate and astonishingly relevant today. Recapturing those events through the voices of those who made them, Sir John investigates if 1968 really did change the world." [BBC Radio]

This series was first broadcast on BBC Radio 4 and aired on BBC World Service on 1st December 2008.
