Esteemable historian Red Richardson escorts us on a personalised excursion to 1956, when the most important things that happened were firstly the invention of the snooze alarm, Tom Hanks was born, British Rail gets rid of 3rd Class seats, Royal Navy Frogman Lionel Buster Crabb disappears, Violet Gibson dies, the woman who shot Mussolini in the nose, and Norma Jean Mortenson legally changes her name to Marilyn Monroe.
