1962 saw the passing of Marilyn Monroe, arrest of Nelson Mandela and birth of Eddie Izzard. Z-cars and Steptoe and Son made their TV debut and on the big screen James Bond first appears in Dr No. This was the year The Beatles were told they had no future and the Rolling Stones first gigged. Meanwhile the world held its breath as tensions escalated in the Cuban Missile Crisis.
