A year to remember; but was it a turning point? William Hardcastle looks back on one of the most dramatic years of the century. The year of ... the coldest winter for nearly 200 years, the death of Hugh Gait skell, the resignation of Harold Macmillan , the assassination of President Kennedy, the death of Pope John , the peak of That Was The Week That Was, the first fame of the Beatles, the Great Train Robbery, the Profumo affair. How significant were so many dramatic events within the same year? Was there a pattern to 1963 or were its sensations merely a set of coincidences? Film editor PETER BARBER Producer THERESE DENNY
