1967

1967 was the year Jens Bjørneboe was convicted under the pornography law for his book Without a Stitch. Sweden switched to driving on the right side of the road. Israel occupied the Sinai Peninsula, Gaza, and the West Bank during the Six-Day War. A military junta seized power in Greece and forced King Constantine into exile. Fashion icon Twiggy introduced new beauty ideals — women were now supposed to be extremely thin and look melancholic. Three Norwegians who shaped the year reflect on the events. Pål Bang-Hansen, who had previously been kept off the air by NRK leadership for having too light a voice, became host of Filmmagasinet on TV. Helge Rønning was a rising radical politician and the socialist candidate for party leader, and jazz singer Karin Krog got to record an album in Los Angeles.
