Rewind back to 1987 and relive the music, news and events hitting the headlines of this memorable year.
Rewind takes a look back at 1987 and the news, music and stories from Scotland and around the world. It was the year Margaret Thatcher won an historic third term in office and US President Ronald Reagan travelled to West Germany and issued a demand to Mikhail Gorbachev to ease the Cold War. In sport, Australia and New Zealand hosted the first Rugby World Cup while closer to home St Mirren won their first ever Scottish Cup. Scots bands Hue and Cry and The Proclaimers were making the charts alongside US singer Whitney Houston, while Tutti Frutti entertained us on TV and Dirty Dancing was a hit on the big screen.
