Welcome to 1990: a year when Margaret Thatcher said goodbye, Twin Peaks said hello, and the nation held its breath as Gazza wept and England almost brought football home.

This is your front-row seat to the year that launched the '90s in glorious, chaotic style. Relive the soundtrack of the time—from the rise of Madchester and the baggy revolution, to the chart-topping anthems that blared from cassette players and Top of the Pops. Remember the fashion? Shell suits, scrunchies and stonewashed denim galore. The news? Poll tax riots, the fall of Thatcher, and the dawn of a new political age. The telly? Keeping Up Appearances, The Crystal Maze, and One Foot in the Grave—pure gold.

Packed with pop culture, politics, big headlines and even bigger hair, 1990 is a time capsule of a nation on the cusp of change. Whether you were there or just wish you had been, this is your ultimate guide to a year that shaped a decade.
