Memory Lane the 1960s special edition - on sale now

EVERY decade can lay claim to being crammed with significance, but the historical status of the 1960s as a period of change, often dramatic, for just about every walk of life cannot be overestimated. And in our latest edition of Memory Lane , we turn the spotlight on the Swinging 60s. It began with the abolition of National Service, immediately freeing up the young generation to raise more than a few eyebrows as they enthusiastically took their place in a cultural revolution that saw fashion, the mini-skirt and all, banish the colourless elements of post-war Britain. Designer Mary Quant led the way in the world of fashion for the masses with her signature item of clothing, the mini-skirt, and model Twiggy was the poster girl. Beatlemania was in full stride across the country, but they weren't the only band making waves, with the decade famous for its music - while it was a boom time for film and TV. Memory Lane is crammed full of stories and fantastic images from the decade. Buy your special now and have it delivered directly to your door.
