1971 - The view from space

In Glasgow, Rangers / Celtic fans are crushed
Western oil companies talk with OPEC
Apollo 14 and 15 have splashed
Back down. East Pakistan a flooded wreck
And West Pakistan occupies, but next
Independence is declared, with Indian
Help later on. Soyuz astronauts dock
With Salyut 1 space station, the Russian
Astronauts dying on the way back down
Trouble in Turkey, the Ceylonese clash
Arsenal win the double, UN accepts
Communist China rather than Taiwan
Jimbo dies in his bath, fierce rioters
In Northern Ireland and Attica's bricks
