BBC Two history series on Britain and the Cold War, looking at the period from the end of the 1950s to the mid-1970s.
Historian Dominic Sandbrook explores the impact of the Cold War on British politics, culture and everyday society. Rather than focusing on missiles and summits, the series examines how the East-West conflict shaped the national imagination through spy scandals, James Bond films, protest records, consumerism vs communism, and widespread fears of nuclear annihilation—from the late 1950s through to the 1980s.
This takes us back to the strange years of the Cold War. These are the years in which we were both more secure and prosperous - and at the same time, lived everyday with the very real possibility of nuclear annihilation.
Dominic looks at the frontline of the conflict as a newly prosperous Britain of consumerism was pitched against the Soviet ideal of communism.
Dominic plunders the archive and music of the late 1970s and the 1980s to bring to life an era in which the end of the world seemed a very real possibility, years in which our leaders crusaded as never before.
