What happened in Britain in 1998?
Here are the most important news headlines, sports and entertainment in the year 1998 ...
Politically, there has been real progress in Northern Ireland when, after 30 years of violence and almost two years of intense peace negotiations, an agreement was reached. The Good Friday Agreement ", as it was called, lay a future of friendship and harmony, and led to Prime Minister Tony Blair and the Republic of Ireland leader, Bertie Ahern, received praise from all corners.
Themuch to say, "Human Rights Act received Royal Assent, which means that the British Government in accordance with the" European Convention on Human Rights had fallen. Among other things, there was a legal right to life, torture, fair trial and freedom of expression, discrimination and the death penalty. Some saw it as essential to a civilized society, while others saw a greater involvement of European bureaucracy.
Another arrival from Europe caused debate was the 43rd Euro Vision SongContest. This year's competition was held in Birmingham and hopes were high for entry Imaani UK and their song "Where are you?". It took a second place behind rival Admiral of Israel, male-female transsexual Dana International. The goal has a lot of hype and publicity contest, so everyone remembers that it remains the only vision song contest euros. What Imanni that do not recognize the name tells you everything you need to know about the future of their musicCareer.
Even the hope of making the UK (or rather, the English part of it was anyway) World Cup 1998 in France. As always, fans were hoping / praying / begging that this is the year, and as always in close, things went a bit 'wrong. England were the victims of the sanctions again (this time in Argentina) and "new face on the block David Beckham was the victim of his temperament. Once sent to a stupid football team in one of Argia, Beckham has been accused of everything and was hated byall (including probably, Victoria).
No doubt, Jim, Barbara, Anthony, Dave and Denise, had been the Royle Family now the World Cup from the comfort of their couch in their home to Manchester Council. Who would have thought a television show about other people watching TV would be such a success? In fact, they not only watch TV, but also smoked cigarettes, cups of TV and broke wind! It is not certain that Jim Royle would be hit with American cultimport 'South Park', but the rest of the UK certainly put into it, millions tune in each week to see "Who Killed Kenny?" (Much more can find out who killed Beckham voted!)
The cinemas have seen a swing back to America for the great successes of the campaign film that presents significant from the United Kingdom in 1998. The bloody "Saving Private Ryan" was a hit the second World War with Tom Hanks, the story of a group of soldiers with orders to secure the private home of James Ryan to take hisanother mother whose three children were killed. Much less bloody and more singing and dancing was the re-release of "Grease." The high school love story returns to the big screen 20 years after its original release (this time with the best color and digital sound).
