I was quite young at the time, but remember the protests well.
Interested that DD says Franny went public in the Mirror, as I am sure that one of the tabloids helped promote his campaign - including giving out 'Forward with Franny' pin badges. I presume that was the Mirror as well? Or have I completely misremembered that?
Can remember well the euphoria after he finally took over, but I certainly never appreciated (until I was a lot older) the significance of the fact that he was still not a majority shareholder.
