Over

First of all there was Victoria, happy and glorious. She saw the 20th century in for us. Had no idea how severe the changes would be in the next 20 years. South Africa started with bitterness. Europe's young men were cut down for big business. Newsreels, cars, aeroplanes, real revolutions. Yes Sir and No Sir were old institutions. Over... over my shoulder. Wave... wave goodbye.

Next there was prohibition and the depression and national radio. Gangsters and fear, the jazz era. Black and white movies, failed Wall Street careers. The 30's kicked off with dictatorships, Hitler and Stalin. the 'special' relationships. World War 1I came to a nuclear conclusions and the women came back disillusioned. Over.

First in line there was Elisabeth, Queen in the making, came in with Korea and Cold War and Berlin, Israel and Hungary, Nato security, rock and roll children. The 60's ignited with Dylan, the Beatles, the Space Race and civil rights killing. 68 riots and Vietnam shame. Flowerpower promised but Flowerpower failed. Over.

In the end there was Diana, a Princess designer, fell foul of the system and died by a chauffeur. Aids and ecology, mines and pollution, fights against drugs and the Third World illusion. Shah out of Iran, more trouble in Ireland, small wars with a good cause from the Gulf to the Falklands. Watergate, Chernobyl, Afghanistan. End of a century end of a symphony. Over.
