It was a year of drama, and familiar faces.
Now, we have put together a gallery of photographs looking back at the year 2007.
It was the year the Gatecrasher nightclub was tragically destroyed by fire, and the year that Joe Cocker unveiled his legends plaque outside Sheffield Town Hall.
Other celebrity links show Sean Bean received an honorary degree at Sheffield University.
Can you recognise anyone you know in these photos from 2007?
