Images from television and the cinema have influenced popular culture throughout the 20th century. Captured in this book are some of the famous actors, musicians, politicians and events recorded in the historic archive of the Press Association, the national news agency of the UK. The collection reveals the changing face of entertainment over the past 100 years, from playwright Noel Coward and actor Charlie Chaplin in the early years through Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn, to 90s stars such as Hugh Grant and Dame Judy Dench, documenting a historic cinematic change. The images also provide a visual account of musical trends such as rock'n'roll in the 50s with Marty Wilde; 60s pop bands such as The Beatles and rock acts such as the Rolling Stones and The Who; the birth of punk in the 70s; the New Romantics of the 80s and chart pop stars such as George Michael and Kylie Minogue; and Britpop in the 90s which featured bands such a Blur, Oasis and Pulp. The book also covers events such as Queen Elizabeth II's coronation, political protests against capital punishment and nuclear weapons, London's flower children in the 60s, the Live Aid concert and the Notting Hill Carnival. Tracing the changing times and milestones of the last 100 years, the pictures provide a commentary on Britain in the 20th century.
