Kodak didn't invent color and it wasn't in the mid-50s.

I think it comes from the period right after Kodak invented color in
the mid 1950's. We here in the US had it long before the rest of the
world and at least 10 years before it reached Europe. I can vaguely
remember waking up one morning and finding that the trees had turned
from gray to green. We all walked around with our mouths hanging open
for a few weeks.

A perception that many have, and if you drive regularly up the M6, it's easy
to see why even today. Much of the TV broadcast around the world shows this
country in a different age, where there was coalmining, factories and acres
of back to back housing. All grey.
Today - and in fairness you can point at much of the developed world and
point this out - there are acres of residential/industrial/retail/economic
identikit sprawl, which frankly make the country look as if it has had
successful charisma by-pass surgery.
