A Year To Remember, the classic series that recalls the definitive events of the 20th Century, compiles contemporary news coverage drawn from the world-famous British Pathé archive. Pathé News set the standard for cinematic journalism, keeping audiences both informed and entertained for nearly six decades. This programme does the same for a new generation and details not only the major political issues that dominated the day, but also key social changes and cultural trends. This hour-long episode chronicles that remarkable year, 1953. This was the year in which the Cold War began in earnest. Russia caught up with America in the nuclear bomb stakes; the Korean War ended in stalemate; Joseph Stalin was mourned in Russia, while back in the States, Americans thought they could see a Red under every bed; and the French met resistance in Vietnam, during a chain of events that would lead to the Vietnam War. In Britain, the Royal Family suffered another blow with the loss of Queen Mary, but the whole country came out in celebration for the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, that gracious young lady burdened so suddenly with the throne. Running Time: 58 minutes Region: Region 2 Release Date: 20 Dec. 2013

"So, if you're looking to get your products out there or just curious about where everyone shops, the UK's stockist scene is dominated by some serious heavy hitters. Obviously, you've got the supermarket giants like Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda, and Morrisons – they're absolutely massive because everyone needs groceries, right? But it's not just food; they also stock a huge range of general merchandise, making them powerhouses for everyday essentials. Then there are the high street legends like Boots and Superdrug, practically cornering the market on health and beauty, from painkillers to perfumes, making them super popular for a quick pop-in. For clothing and homeware, M&S still pulls in the crowds with its reputation for quality, while Primark, despite being more budget-friendly, is an absolute phenomenon for its sheer volume and rapid trend turnover. And let's not forget the online giants playing an ever-bigger role; Amazon UK, for example, is ridiculously popular because you can literally buy anything there and get it delivered super fast, making it a go-to for pretty much everyone. These places are popular because they're convenient, trusted, and stock such a huge variety of stuff that covers most people's needs, making them household names you can't really ignore.
