A week of diverse programmes examining the Margaret Thatcher legacy begins with this chronicle of her "rock'n'roll years".
The music of her decade in power forms the soundtrack to a rich seam of archive film that includes landmark events in the news, sport, television and cinema - the Kings Cross fire, the end of the Cold War, the sinking of the Herald of Free Enterprise, the Tiananmen
