If this has happened to anyone, please tell me what to do. My screen has turned black and white. I was just pressing a bunch of random keys, and I guess I must have pressed the wrong one, because suddenly all the colour disappeared. I restarted, but nothing happened. Is my display broken? Is my graphics card damaged? How do I fix it? Your help is urgently needed and greatly appreciated.

First of all, don't do that anymore. ;)

Try going to the Universal Access menu in System Preferences. Under the Seeing tab, click on the button marked "Set Display To Grayscale", and see if that fixes it.

Wow.

Thanks, that actually worked. But I also had to click "Switch to Black on White". Wierd. I hope that never happens again.
