520 8  On the night of 24 April 1974, at five minutes to eleven, 
       a Lisbon radio station broadcasts Portugal's Eurovision 
       entry. By 6.20 p.m. the next day, Europe's oldest fascist 
       regime has fallen. Hardly a shot has been fired. As 
       citizens pour into the streets, they offer carnations to 
       the revolutionary soldiers. For the first time in forty-
       eight years, Portugal is free. The Carnation Revolution 
       winds through the streets of Lisbon as the revolution 
       unfolds, revealing the myriad acts of ordinary and 
       extraordinary resistance that made 25 April possible. It's
       the story of daring escapes from five-storey prisons, 
       soldiers disobeying their officers' orders and simple acts
       of courage by thousands of citizens. It's the story of how
       a group of young captains felled a globe-spanning empire
