The sixties were all about ?Free love?. The seventies was the age of great movie-making and music. The eighties was epitomised by consumerism and the 1990?s had er, the Tamagotchi.
Every decade becomes synonymous with a particular movement, fashion or mood. As such, the 2010?s (or ?Teens? as it's known to total idiots) will henceforth be known as the ?Decade Where People Broke Down Or Cried A Bit On Telly?. So far, we've had the usually stone-faced political spin doctor Alistair Campbell wobble on Andrew Marr?s BBC show and news that Gordon Brown gets emotional during his soon-to-be-televised interview with Piers Morgan. Though surely just hearing that the PM had to meet PM would have been enough to cause hysterical weeping on a grand scale.
Kicking off the ?Teens? ? sorry, 2010?s – Cry-O-Vision trend was of course the King of Hearts himself, Peter Andre.
