00:00:26,087 --> 00:00:29,557
"Congratulations, lads.
Number one in US charts" or something
2
00:00:29,927 --> 00:00:32,646
It was a great feeling
3
00:00:32,927 --> 00:00:36,317
because we were booked to go there
directly after the Paris trip
4
00:00:36,447 --> 00:00:39,598
so it was handy to have
a number one
5
00:00:40,127 --> 00:00:45,759
British pop stars haven't made much
impact on the US, how will you fare?
6
00:00:45,887 --> 00:00:48,606
Well, I can't really say, can I?
7
00:00:48,727 --> 00:00:51,685
Is it up to me? No.
I just hope we go all right
8
00:00:53,767 --> 00:00:58,204
But at that time I didn't realise
that Capitol Records had been told...
9
00:00:58,327 --> 00:01:01,603
John F Kennedy Airport
New York 7th February 1964
They wanted the Beatles, you see
10
00:01:01,727 --> 00:01:04,639
Brian Epstein said
"OK, you can have them...
11
00:01:04,767 --> 00:01:09,602
"on condition that you spend $70000,"
which sounded enormous
12
00:01:09,767 --> 00:01:14,636
So they had to promote us, but I
think there was more to it than that
13
00:01:14,767 --> 00:01:17,645
They had a catchy single
that took off
14
00:01:18,207 --> 00:01:21,404
plus Ed Sullivan
had seen us in England
15
00:01:21,527 --> 00:01:23,677
and Time, Life and Newsweek
16
00:01:23,807 --> 00:01:29,279
had all put covers of the Beatles
on their magazines prior to us arriving
17
00:01:29,407 --> 00:01:31,796
It was a surprise, though
18
00:01:31,927 --> 00:01:36,637
because we thought we'd have to work
a little bit for this notoriety
19
00:01:37,087 --> 00:01:39,555
If there was a turning point
in their career
20
00:01:39,687 --> 00:01:43,760
Voice of Beatles' Manager Brian Epstein
a specific date on which the scope
of their future was to be altered
21
00:01:43,927 --> 00:01:47,966
it was the day they touched down
at Kennedy International in New York
22
00:01:48,087 --> 00:01:52,444
to a welcome seldom equalled
anywhere in history
23
00:02:03,807 --> 00:02:06,605
Would you please sing something?
- No!
24
00:02:08,487 --> 00:02:12,799
Is there something you CAN sing?
- No, we need money first!
25
00:02:15,327 --> 00:02:19,161
How many of you are bald if you have
to wear those wigs? - All of us
26
00:02:19,287 --> 00:02:22,882
Oh, we're all bald...
and deaf and dumb, too
27
00:02:29,607 --> 00:02:33,361
Are you for real?
- Come and have a feel
28
00:02:34,567 --> 00:02:38,685
Are you going to get a haircut?
- No, no, no... no thanks
29
00:02:38,807 --> 00:02:40,798
I had one yesterday
30
00:02:42,207 --> 00:02:45,483
That's no lie
- It's true
31
00:02:46,407 --> 00:02:49,444
What is it that your music
does to these people?
32
00:02:50,527 --> 00:02:53,166
Pleases them, I think.
It must because they're buying it
33
00:02:53,287 --> 00:02:56,199
Why does it excite them so much?
- We don't know, really
34
00:02:56,327 --> 00:03:00,115
We're going to form another group
and be managers
35
00:03:01,767 --> 00:03:05,965
I remember the great moment
of going into the limo
36
00:03:06,127 --> 00:03:08,721
and there we were
on American radio
37
00:03:15,047 --> 00:03:21,520
And tomorrow an exciting morningas Brad Phillips has the Beatles...
38
00:03:26,167 --> 00:03:31,366
Tomorrow night the Beatles read theirown poetry on 'Meet The Beatles... '
39
00:03:31,487 --> 00:03:33,603
Oh, really?
40
00:03:33,727 --> 00:03:36,195
I don't understand this
41
00:03:37,407 --> 00:03:39,284
We ain't writ no poetry
42
00:03:59,487 --> 00:04:01,682
Lock your door
43
00:05:18,887 --> 00:05:23,244
We were so over-awed by American
radio - Epstein had to stop us -
44
00:05:23,367 --> 00:05:27,645
we phoned every radio in town,
asking them to play the Ronettes
45
00:05:27,767 --> 00:05:30,486
We didn't ask for our own records,
but other people's
46
00:05:30,727 --> 00:05:34,845
This is John Lennon of the Beatles
on 1010 WINS
47
00:05:35,167 --> 00:05:39,365
This is the Beatles station. They're
taking over, telling us what to play
48
00:05:39,527 --> 00:05:42,883
One more week of this
and I'll become the fifth Beatle
49
00:05:43,087 --> 00:05:46,875
I liked Murray, he was a good guy.
There was him and cousin Bruce
50
00:05:47,007 --> 00:05:53,242
He became the so-called 'fifth Beatle' -
he was really big on our record
51
00:05:53,647 --> 00:05:55,638
He helped make it a hit
52
00:05:55,927 --> 00:05:58,236
Paul, suppose you tell them
what we got next
53
00:05:58,487 --> 00:06:03,436
We were very impressed with him,
so we'd ring his show
54
00:06:03,567 --> 00:06:07,037
He'd say "The Beatles are on
and I've got an exclusive interview"
55
00:06:07,167 --> 00:06:11,399
We'd ring up "Hello, excuse me, Murray."
"Oh, it's George. Hi, George..."
56
00:06:11,527 --> 00:06:14,883
We'd give him all the exclusives
because we loved him
57
00:06:15,407 --> 00:06:19,525
This is Paul McCartney from WINS
58
00:06:19,647 --> 00:06:23,356
and it's Marvin Gaye singingPride and Joy
59
00:07:04,927 --> 00:07:08,397
It's me-you know me-yes
60
00:07:09,007 --> 00:07:13,762
We're waiting for a call from London
and you're blocking the line
61
00:07:14,247 --> 00:07:16,841
Hello, John
- Hello, Brian
62
00:07:16,967 --> 00:07:20,118
What are your first impressions
of arrival in America?
63
00:07:20,247 --> 00:07:25,685
I don't know. They're sort of wild,
you know... all wild
64
00:07:25,807 --> 00:07:30,801
Wilder than they are in England?
- Maybe it was the first impression
65
00:07:30,967 --> 00:07:32,878
They seemed out of their minds
66
00:07:33,007 --> 00:07:36,363
Did you get home betweeen leaving
Paris and going to the States?
67
00:07:36,487 --> 00:07:41,686
We were in London for two days
- You didn't go to Liverpool?
68
00:07:42,287 --> 00:07:46,803
No. George went but he's regretting it.
He still hasn't slept
69
00:07:46,927 --> 00:07:49,566
Is George there now?
- Do you want to speak to him?
70
00:07:49,687 --> 00:07:53,885
In a moment, but do you want to say
anything to the fans here at home?
71
00:07:54,007 --> 00:07:57,522
Tell them not to forget,
we're only away for ten days
72
00:07:57,647 --> 00:07:59,683
We're thinking of them
73
00:07:59,847 --> 00:08:02,441
Let's have a word with Ringo
74
00:08:04,927 --> 00:08:09,125
What was the first thing you did
when you got to your hotel, Ringo?
75
00:08:09,247 --> 00:08:15,436
We had a big press interview
with about 100 people
76
00:08:16,247 --> 00:08:21,924
We got out of that, then we had
a Cadillac each, marvellous cars
77
00:08:22,047 --> 00:08:25,278
What sort of things do they want
to know at the press reception?
78
00:08:25,407 --> 00:08:30,686
Are we bald, and what do we do
with our money-the usual things
79
00:08:30,807 --> 00:08:35,927
You proved you don't wear wigs?
- Yeah, we took them off
80
00:08:36,807 --> 00:08:39,685
Well, cheerio Ringo,
and the best of luck to you
81
00:08:39,807 --> 00:08:44,005
Give my regards to everyone.
Here's George now
82
00:08:44,127 --> 00:08:47,119
Hello, George
- How are you, Brian?
83
00:08:49,487 --> 00:08:52,684
The first thing you'll be doing
is the Ed Sullivan Show, isn't it?
84
00:08:52,807 --> 00:08:58,006
We rehearse that tomorrow
and do the show on Sunday
85
00:08:58,127 --> 00:09:00,641
What will you be doing on the show?
86
00:09:00,767 --> 00:09:04,999
I Want to Hold your Hand, She Loves You, Please Please Me
87
00:09:05,127 --> 00:09:07,038
The usual ones
88
00:09:07,167 --> 00:09:10,079
How many of your records
are in the American hit parade?
89
00:09:10,207 --> 00:09:14,041
We've got six in the top hundred
90
00:09:14,167 --> 00:09:19,764
I Want to Hold Your Hand, She Loves You, Please Please Me, From Me to You
91
00:09:19,887 --> 00:09:23,675
My Bonnie, which is a laugh,
and I Saw Her Standing There
92
00:09:23,807 --> 00:09:29,165
You know in New York
three records are number one:
93
00:09:29,287 --> 00:09:32,962
Please Please Me, She Loves You, I Want to Hold Your Hand
94
00:09:33,087 --> 00:09:36,079
That's marvellous!
We're all very proud of you
95
00:09:36,207 --> 00:09:39,677
Good luck, and we look forward
to seeing you back home soon
96
00:09:40,047 --> 00:09:43,357
We'll see you in two weeks,
I suppose
97
00:09:43,967 --> 00:09:47,277
I'd this throat thing because
when you see the photographs -
98
00:09:47,407 --> 00:09:52,527
they did publicity shots
in Central Park -
99
00:09:52,967 --> 00:09:56,596
There's pictures of the three of them
with the New York skyline behind them
100
00:09:59,407 --> 00:10:03,366
Our theatre's jammed with newsmen
and photographers from all over
101
00:10:03,487 --> 00:10:10,279
The city has never witnessed such
excitement as stirred by the Beatles
102
00:10:10,407 --> 00:10:13,638
Tonight you will twice
be entertained by them
103
00:10:13,767 --> 00:10:18,397
Right now, and again in the second
half of our show. The Beatles!
104
00:10:24,007 --> 00:10:29,240
The Ed Sullivan Show
New York 9th February 1964
105
00:12:03,127 --> 00:12:07,962
It's still supposed to be the largest
viewing audience ever in the States
106
00:12:08,127 --> 00:12:12,803
and the States being the biggest
show biz town ever
107
00:12:12,927 --> 00:12:18,240
People still talk about it like "Where
were you when Kennedy was shot?"
108
00:12:33,927 --> 00:12:37,602
Something very nice happened
and the Beatles got a kick out of it
109
00:12:37,727 --> 00:12:41,606
They've just received a wire from
Elvis Presley and Colonel Tom Parker
110
00:12:41,727 --> 00:12:45,879
wishing them a tremendous
success in our country
111
00:12:46,327 --> 00:12:52,800
Later they said there was the least
reported, or no reported crime
112
00:12:53,247 --> 00:12:59,641
Even criminals had a rest for
ten minutes while we were on
113
00:13:00,167 --> 00:13:03,045
Then we did the train ride
to Washington
114
00:13:16,847 --> 00:13:20,920
That's where we got to know
quite a few of the press guys
115
00:13:21,087 --> 00:13:25,524
They started to get friendly and let us
know they were actually there to kill us
116
00:13:25,687 --> 00:13:28,804
Beause we shouted at them,
they loved us
117
00:13:29,567 --> 00:13:31,797
God knows what would have happened
if we hadn't shouted
118
00:13:45,087 --> 00:13:49,126
It's great being here in New York
- Washington
119
00:13:49,247 --> 00:13:53,445
Oh, is that the place? Washington?
I'm just moving so fast
120
00:14:08,807 --> 00:14:14,996
Voice of Neil Aspinall
Tour Manager
That Washington show was like a
boxing ring, with people all round
121
00:14:15,327 --> 00:14:19,525
Every song, you'd go to a different
side of the stage
122
00:14:19,687 --> 00:14:22,201
so you had to move the mikes
all the time
123
00:14:22,327 --> 00:14:28,084
Ringo was sitting on this round thing
in the middle of the stage
124
00:14:28,207 --> 00:14:33,884
He had to turn that round to face
the band and it got stuck
125
00:14:34,007 --> 00:14:40,196
All this chaos was going on.
But it was a good show
126
00:14:40,767 --> 00:14:45,682
Washington Coliseum
11th February 1964
127
00:15:10,447 --> 00:15:17,239
Thank you very much, everybody,
and good evening
128
00:15:20,727 --> 00:15:26,563
We'd like to thank everybody
here in America, Washington
129
00:15:34,807 --> 00:15:38,925
We'd like to thank everybody
for buying this particular record -
130
00:15:39,047 --> 00:15:41,845
for starting us off in America
131
00:15:41,967 --> 00:15:45,960
and giving us the chance to come here
and see you all in Washington
132
00:18:10,647 --> 00:18:14,720
The song we'd like
to carry on with now
133
00:18:14,847 --> 00:18:19,602
is one which we recorded
on an LP that we made
134
00:18:19,727 --> 00:18:22,844
That's English for album,
an album we made
135
00:18:22,967 --> 00:18:29,440
We'd like you to join in -
clap your hands and stamp your feet
136
00:18:34,567 --> 00:18:39,516
Everybody join in all together
137
00:18:43,847 --> 00:18:47,203
The song's called
I Saw Her Standing There
138
00:21:45,087 --> 00:21:47,078
Thank you very much
139
00:21:47,687 --> 00:21:51,362
We would like to sing a song now
140
00:21:51,487 --> 00:21:56,880
which was a record for us
and it was our first hit in England
141
00:22:02,847 --> 00:22:06,840
This song was released in America.
It didn't do anything
142
00:22:07,247 --> 00:22:13,117
It was released later again and, well,
it's doing something, you know
143
00:22:17,807 --> 00:22:23,518
We'd like to play for you now
Please Please Me
144
00:24:25,087 --> 00:24:28,716
British Embassy Washington
11th February 1964
The British Embassy it was -
there was a party
145
00:24:28,847 --> 00:24:34,080
This was starting to happen because
we were now conquering America
146
00:24:34,207 --> 00:24:38,439
and the British Ambassador
could play a role in this
147
00:24:38,567 --> 00:24:42,162
It would be good publicity
for him, you know
148
00:24:43,647 --> 00:24:47,925
There were a lot of 'Hooray Henrys'
which we'd never met before
149
00:24:48,047 --> 00:24:53,246
We hadn't played many Arts Balls
or Cambridge May Balls
150
00:24:53,367 --> 00:24:56,757
We'd heard about these guys who
got a bit stroppy after a few drinks
151
00:24:56,887 --> 00:25:02,041
"Oh, I say... play Rachmaninov's
Piano Concerto, ha ha ha"
152
00:25:02,327 --> 00:25:05,876
We were standing around,
saying "Hi" and having a drink
153
00:25:06,847 --> 00:25:12,126
One of them came up behind me
and snipped a piece of my hair off
154
00:25:13,007 --> 00:25:15,805
I was so angry "What the hell
do you think you're doing?"
155
00:25:15,927 --> 00:25:17,918
"Oh, it's OK, old chap"
156
00:25:19,207 --> 00:25:24,361
Some bloody animal cut Ringo's hair
in the middle of...
157
00:25:24,487 --> 00:25:29,481
I walked out, swearing at all of them.
I just left in the middle of it
158
00:25:31,887 --> 00:25:33,923
We eventually got down to Miami
159
00:25:34,407 --> 00:25:37,524
which was just like Paradise
160
00:25:37,647 --> 00:25:41,481
We'd never been to anywhere
where there were palm trees
161
00:25:41,607 --> 00:25:46,442
We took a lot of photos. We were
like tourists with our Pentax cameras
162
00:27:33,247 --> 00:27:38,401
We had a great time, looking down
at the sand from our hotel
163
00:27:38,527 --> 00:27:43,521
The kids would write
"I love John" on the sand
164
00:27:43,647 --> 00:27:46,161
so you could read it
from your hotel room
165
00:27:49,007 --> 00:27:50,998
Who are you?
166
00:27:51,607 --> 00:27:53,438
What's your name?
167
00:27:53,727 --> 00:27:55,524
Which one are you?
168
00:27:57,527 --> 00:28:00,519
This was just the most brilliant
place I'd ever been to
169
00:28:00,647 --> 00:28:04,037
People were lending us yachts
or anything we wanted
170
00:28:04,167 --> 00:28:07,955
This family lent us their boat
and they let me drive
171
00:28:08,087 --> 00:28:11,523
a 60 foot yacht, a speed boat
172
00:28:11,647 --> 00:28:14,957
which I proceeded to bring in
to port head on
173
00:28:18,167 --> 00:28:22,445
Not really knowing much about
driving speed boats
174
00:28:22,927 --> 00:28:26,761
and so they have those pretty rails
on the front hanging over
175
00:28:28,007 --> 00:28:32,523
I bent the bugger all over the place
but they didn't seem to mind
176
00:28:39,647 --> 00:28:44,675
The Ed Sullivan Show Rehearsals
Miami 16th February 1964
177
00:28:48,767 --> 00:28:54,160
For the next song, we'd like to sing...
OK, hang on...
178
00:28:58,247 --> 00:29:01,125
Shut up while he's talking
179
00:29:02,727 --> 00:29:06,720
And now from the stage of the
Deauville Hotel - Ed Sullivan!
180
00:29:14,847 --> 00:29:17,315
Thank you very much
181
00:29:19,247 --> 00:29:24,924
It's so nice to be here, thank you
182
00:29:25,167 --> 00:29:28,921
It's happened again.
Last Sunday on our show in New York
183
00:29:29,047 --> 00:29:35,043
the Beatles played to the greatest
audience ever on American TV
184
00:29:35,367 --> 00:29:38,677
Tonight, here in Miami Beach
185
00:29:38,847 --> 00:29:42,840
again the Beatles face
a record busting audience
186
00:29:46,207 --> 00:29:48,198
Ladies and gentlemen
187
00:29:48,767 --> 00:29:53,841
Here are four of the nicest kids
we've ever had on our stage
188
00:31:25,407 --> 00:31:28,046
Excuse the mess,
won't you... packing
189
00:31:47,607 --> 00:31:50,041
These youngsters from
Liverpool, England...
190
00:31:50,167 --> 00:31:54,126
Their conduct over here,
not only as fine professional singers
191
00:31:54,247 --> 00:31:56,715
but as a group of fine youngsters
192
00:31:56,887 --> 00:32:01,677
will leave an imprint with everyone
over here who has met them
193
00:32:03,607 --> 00:32:07,680
Nobody ever made it in America -
we were dying to be the first
194
00:32:07,887 --> 00:32:10,447
A lot of people had tried
and failed in America
195
00:32:10,687 --> 00:32:15,966
We were very confident, our
confidence was at an all-time high
196
00:32:16,727 --> 00:32:20,879
I felt we'd conquered America -
it was an attitude we had
197
00:32:21,007 --> 00:32:25,125
We'd conquered Sweden and France
so America was ours now
198
00:32:32,887 --> 00:32:37,039
London Airport
22nd February 1964
199
00:32:55,127 --> 00:32:56,924
What do you most like
about the trip, Ringo?
200
00:32:57,047 --> 00:32:59,607
I loved it all, especially Miami
201
00:32:59,727 --> 00:33:03,402
I didn't know what 'sun' meant
before I went there
202
00:33:03,527 --> 00:33:08,476
Don't you get it in Liverpool?
- No, they've finished up there
203
00:33:08,927 --> 00:33:13,762
Did you have a chance to get away
without anybody recognising you?
204
00:33:13,887 --> 00:33:18,278
We borrowed a couple of
millionaires' houses, you know
205
00:33:18,767 --> 00:33:23,841
You could afford to buy a couple
- We'd sooner borrow, it's cheaper
206
00:33:23,967 --> 00:33:27,482
We did a bit of water skiing
207
00:33:27,607 --> 00:33:31,919
Did your wife enjoy it over there?
- She loved it, who... who?
208
00:33:32,287 --> 00:33:36,405
Don't tell them he's married
- I'm sorry, I didn't mean to
209
00:33:36,527 --> 00:33:40,998
What about the taste of the fans over
there, did you find the same stuff?
210
00:33:45,327 --> 00:33:49,320
Yeah, we expected them to be very
different but they weren't at all
211
00:33:50,087 --> 00:33:53,204
The accent was the only difference
212
00:33:53,327 --> 00:33:56,285
Did they reckon you sang in an
English accent or an American one?
213
00:33:56,407 --> 00:33:59,205
Some fella said, how come
you're from Britain
214
00:33:59,327 --> 00:34:02,524
and you sing with an
American accent?
215
00:34:02,647 --> 00:34:07,402
We tried to explain that
it's a Liverpool accent
216
00:34:08,367 --> 00:34:12,519
I hear that the four of you will be
millionaires by the end of the year
217
00:34:12,647 --> 00:34:14,126
That's nice
218
00:34:15,527 --> 00:34:18,325
Have you time to spend this money?
- What money?
219
00:34:22,407 --> 00:34:26,923
You went to see those movies with Elvis
or somebody in them in Liverpool
220
00:34:27,047 --> 00:34:30,357
Everybody was waiting to see him.
I'd be waiting there too
221
00:34:30,487 --> 00:34:33,126
They'd all scream when
he came on the screen
222
00:34:33,247 --> 00:34:35,715
So we thought,
that's a good job
223
00:34:35,887 --> 00:34:39,960
We'd always... I'm talking about
this progression with the Beatles
224
00:34:40,087 --> 00:34:45,081
From the Stevedores' and Dockers'
Union, the Cavern, better clubs
225
00:34:45,207 --> 00:34:49,723
So films was one that
we'd always thought of
226
00:34:49,847 --> 00:34:54,159
We loved The Girl Can't Help It and
knew rock'n'roll could lead to films
227
00:34:54,447 --> 00:34:55,562
How do you reckon that one out?
228
00:34:55,767 --> 00:34:59,601
I loved the pictures as a kid
229
00:34:59,727 --> 00:35:05,245
I used to go a hell
of a lot in Liverpool
230
00:35:06,487 --> 00:35:11,163
Great memories from
the Saturday morning pictures
231
00:35:11,287 --> 00:35:15,439
If it was a pirate movie,
I would be a pirate
232
00:35:15,567 --> 00:35:20,880
If it was a western,
I'd come home as a cowboy
233
00:35:21,287 --> 00:35:24,962
It was a great fantasy land
for me as a kid
234
00:35:25,767 --> 00:35:29,157
We were interested in films
and what happened was...
235
00:35:29,287 --> 00:35:33,644
Brian started talking to people,
knowing of our interest
236
00:35:33,767 --> 00:35:36,839
He came up with Dick Lester's name
237
00:35:36,967 --> 00:35:41,916
He did the Running Jumping StandingStill film with Spike Milligan
238
00:35:42,047 --> 00:35:45,039
A classic comedy short,
about five minutes long
239
00:35:45,167 --> 00:35:49,718
I don't know if it's funny now,
but it was very funny then
240
00:36:12,007 --> 00:36:16,080
So they got hold of Dick Lester
and we were really pleased
241
00:36:16,207 --> 00:36:20,325
Dick came round. He was a bit of
a musician, played jazz piano
242
00:36:20,447 --> 00:36:23,803
so he was even more interesting
243
00:36:23,927 --> 00:36:29,559
He was American but he'd worked
in Britain with the Goons
244
00:36:29,687 --> 00:36:34,158
He got hold of Alun Owen,
a Welsh playwright
245
00:36:34,287 --> 00:36:37,882
who'd written
Last Tram to Lime Street
246
00:36:38,007 --> 00:36:42,717
Something like that,
it was a long time ago now
247
00:36:42,847 --> 00:36:46,681
It was a very good play
with Billie Whitelaw
248
00:36:46,807 --> 00:36:49,640
that Alun was known for
249
00:36:49,767 --> 00:36:54,795
He was a very likeable Welsh bloke
and he hung out with us for a few days
250
00:36:54,927 --> 00:36:57,885
He picked up little quotes like
"He's very clean, isn't he?"
251
00:36:58,007 --> 00:37:03,479
He picked up the jokes and sarcasm,
the Beatle humour
252
00:37:03,607 --> 00:37:07,600
John's wit and each one of us,
Ringo's laconic humour
253
00:37:07,727 --> 00:37:10,685
He picked up our characters,
which was good
254
00:37:11,167 --> 00:37:15,797
Normally in pictures you do things back
to front, maybe the end on one day...
255
00:37:15,967 --> 00:37:20,722
and the beginning the next day, but
this one we almost did it in sequence
256
00:38:46,687 --> 00:38:49,679
It was very exciting. We got on
a train at Marylebone station
257
00:38:49,807 --> 00:38:52,367
and the next minute
we're in a film
258
00:38:56,527 --> 00:39:01,203
There were little girls in gymslips
who were actually models
259
00:39:01,327 --> 00:39:05,559
We were fascinated with them
and George married one
260
00:39:05,847 --> 00:39:08,884
Pattie Boyd was one
of the girls on the train
261
00:39:27,327 --> 00:39:31,923
The whole of the train bit -
we were just going to pieces...
262
00:39:32,247 --> 00:39:38,197
It was all so romantic with the lights
and coming to work in the limo
263
00:39:38,327 --> 00:39:43,526
Getting up early wasn't
the best thing we could do
264
00:39:43,647 --> 00:39:49,085
The scene in Hard Day's Night,
the one I got a good credit for -
265
00:39:49,207 --> 00:39:54,122
walking on the beach...
by the canal
266
00:39:54,247 --> 00:39:58,035
with the camera and that -
the lonely guy scene
267
00:40:04,567 --> 00:40:08,526
That came about because
I came directly to work -
268
00:40:08,647 --> 00:40:11,241
very unprofessional -
straight from a night club
269
00:40:11,367 --> 00:40:14,723
I was a little hung over,
to say the least
270
00:40:14,847 --> 00:40:19,716
I was just so out of it,
so they said "Let's do anything"
271
00:40:20,127 --> 00:40:23,915
My version of it was - I said
"Just film me walking around"
272
00:40:25,567 --> 00:40:30,243
I looked so cold and dejected
because I felt like shit
273
00:40:30,647 --> 00:40:35,596
There was no acting going on,
I just felt so bad
274
00:40:36,127 --> 00:40:39,278
I was less embarrassed
than the others
275
00:40:39,407 --> 00:40:41,637
but I think John
got into the movie too
276
00:40:46,567 --> 00:40:48,364
Hello
277
00:40:48,487 --> 00:40:51,081
Wait a minute, you're...
- No, I'm not
278
00:40:51,207 --> 00:40:54,438
Oh, you are. I know you are
- I'm not, no
279
00:40:54,847 --> 00:40:59,443
You look just like him
- You're the first ever to say that
280
00:40:59,767 --> 00:41:01,758
Yes you do, look
281
00:41:02,847 --> 00:41:06,317
No, my eyes are lighter. My nose...
282
00:41:06,447 --> 00:41:08,483
Oh yes, your nose is very...
- Is it?
283
00:41:08,607 --> 00:41:10,723
I would have said so
- You know him better though
284
00:41:10,847 --> 00:41:13,884
I do not. He's a casual acquaintance
- That's what you say
285
00:41:14,007 --> 00:41:16,396
What have you heard?
286
00:41:16,527 --> 00:41:19,485
It's all over the place
- Is it really?
287
00:41:19,607 --> 00:41:24,078
But I stuck up for you
- I knew I could rely on you
288
00:41:29,247 --> 00:41:32,444
You don't look like him at all
289
00:41:37,167 --> 00:41:40,159
She looks more like him than I do
290
00:41:46,647 --> 00:41:51,596
Alun Owen tried to write a scene
of us being harassed by the press
291
00:41:51,847 --> 00:41:54,441
which was part
of our daily duty really
292
00:41:54,567 --> 00:41:59,766
They were saying things like
"How did you find America?"
293
00:42:00,167 --> 00:42:01,646
Turn left at Greenland
294
00:42:02,047 --> 00:42:03,685
What do you call that hairstyle?
295
00:42:04,287 --> 00:42:05,356
Arthur
296
00:42:05,487 --> 00:42:06,886
Has success changed your life?
297
00:42:07,207 --> 00:42:11,997
I think it did, because Alun hung
around with us and was careful...
298
00:42:12,127 --> 00:42:16,723
to put words into our mouths
that he'd heard us speak
299
00:42:16,847 --> 00:42:19,042
so I think he did a very good script
300
00:42:21,447 --> 00:42:24,837
Leave those drums alone!
- Oh, just a little touch
301
00:42:24,967 --> 00:42:29,404
If you even breathe on them...
- Aren't you being rather arbitrary?
302
00:42:29,527 --> 00:42:32,803
There you go, hiding behind a
smokescreen of bourgeois clich�s
303
00:42:32,967 --> 00:42:37,518
I don't mess around with your earphones
- Spoilsport
304
00:42:39,687 --> 00:42:44,124
He's very fussy about his drums.
They loom large in his legend
305
00:42:45,287 --> 00:42:47,517
What's up?
- Oh, he's sulking again
306
00:42:47,687 --> 00:42:49,166
I'll show him
307
00:45:07,607 --> 00:45:10,883
Pardon, 'scuse, pardon...
I'd like more drums, there
308
00:45:11,007 --> 00:45:13,805
No, I think it's on that...
309
00:45:13,927 --> 00:45:17,636
On the third bit... more bang...
310
00:45:19,407 --> 00:45:23,036
The next few minutes are in the lap
of the gods and the hands of the Beatles
311
00:45:23,167 --> 00:45:27,160
We're going to hear versions
of songs from their films
312
00:45:27,287 --> 00:45:30,245
Gather round, famous film stars,
gather round
313
00:45:30,927 --> 00:45:35,318
In my young days, they used
to have actors in films
314
00:45:36,007 --> 00:45:39,079
It's all changed now
- They're not doing that
315
00:45:39,207 --> 00:45:43,519
Did you find that the best bits
were left on the cutting room floor?
316
00:45:43,647 --> 00:45:48,801
The good bits are in the film.
He said those were the best. Rubbish!
317
00:45:48,927 --> 00:45:52,522
Was it really? Who was worst?
- Oh, Paul!
318
00:45:52,647 --> 00:45:55,400
No, I think John was about the worst
- No, it was you
319
00:45:55,527 --> 00:45:57,836
Ringo was very good. He's a good lad
320
00:45:57,967 --> 00:46:00,481
They're saying he's
the new Charlie Chaplin
321
00:46:00,607 --> 00:46:02,598
He's an old one
322
00:46:29,007 --> 00:46:33,797
We liked the bit in the field where
we all jump about like lunatics
323
00:46:33,927 --> 00:46:36,680
because that's pure film,
as the director told us
324
00:46:36,847 --> 00:46:40,237
We could have been anybody
but we enjoyed it
325
00:47:15,367 --> 00:47:19,963
NME Poll Winners' Concert
London
326
00:48:15,007 --> 00:48:17,646
Well John, I believe
you've written a book
327
00:48:17,767 --> 00:48:21,123
This book's called John Lennon -
In His Own Write, folks
328
00:48:21,247 --> 00:48:26,879
W R I T E, you see-it's
a laugh a minute with John Lennon
329
00:48:27,007 --> 00:48:30,966
Some of you might find it a bit
difficult to understand
330
00:48:31,087 --> 00:48:35,160
because it's in a sort
of funny lingo
331
00:48:35,287 --> 00:48:39,121
Well, we get it.
It's full of laughs
332
00:48:39,247 --> 00:48:42,045
I don't really know how
you can describe it, but...
333
00:48:42,327 --> 00:48:47,117
I've never read anything like it.
The stories are so funny
334
00:48:47,247 --> 00:48:51,126
Many little drawings to make you laugh.
It also had the wrestling dog
335
00:48:51,327 --> 00:48:54,046
Once upon a time,
in a far off, distant land
336
00:48:54,167 --> 00:48:59,195
far across the sea, miles away from
anyway, over the hills as the crow barks
337
00:48:59,327 --> 00:49:04,196
39 people lived miles from anywhere
on a little island on a distant land
338
00:49:04,327 --> 00:49:09,162
At harvest time, the people celebrated
with a feast and dancing
339
00:49:09,287 --> 00:49:11,755
It was Perry's
- For Perry was the loud mirth
340
00:49:11,887 --> 00:49:14,765
Job to provide
- At Perry's great pleasure, I might add
341
00:49:14,887 --> 00:49:17,276
A new and exciting...
- And usually it was
342
00:49:17,407 --> 00:49:21,685
thrill and spectacular performer
- Sometimes a dwarf was used
343
00:49:21,807 --> 00:49:26,801
This year Perry had surpassed
himself by getting a wrestling dog
344
00:49:27,927 --> 00:49:32,682
But who would fight this wondrous
beast? Not me, Dudley
345
00:49:32,807 --> 00:49:34,798
Mr John Lennon...
346
00:49:45,847 --> 00:49:49,476
Mr John Lennon will be back with the
answers later in the programme
347
00:49:49,767 --> 00:49:54,921
From an early age, John had a fancy
for that kind of thing
348
00:49:55,047 --> 00:49:59,882
At school he did "The Daily Howl"
which was like a comic
349
00:50:00,007 --> 00:50:03,966
He used to draw all the things
and it would be little jokes
350
00:50:04,087 --> 00:50:07,477
Today would be Muggy, followed
by Tuggy, Weggy, and Thurggy
351
00:50:07,607 --> 00:50:12,078
Little teenage jokes.
He used to do a lot of that
352
00:50:23,167 --> 00:50:28,400
Long distance calling for the manager
of the Beatles? His name, please?
353
00:50:28,527 --> 00:50:32,236
The manager's name
is Mr Brian Epstein
354
00:50:35,927 --> 00:50:39,158
The manager's name is Brian Epstein
355
00:50:39,367 --> 00:50:45,363
I went to Torquay with Brian
to write "A Cellarful of Noise"
356
00:50:45,487 --> 00:50:49,241
On the third day he said "I've got
a lovely idea. I want you to join us"
357
00:50:49,367 --> 00:50:54,236
I thought this is incredible,
this is the idea
358
00:50:54,367 --> 00:50:59,157
Derek Taylor
Beatles' Press Officer
I'd given up on the idea of joining them,
thinking, if it happens, it happens
359
00:50:59,487 --> 00:51:04,277
So after about 15 years
on newspapers
360
00:51:04,407 --> 00:51:07,444
I just dropped out
and joined the Beatles
361
00:51:07,567 --> 00:51:11,003
I was Brian's personal assistant,
then eventually their press officer
362
00:51:11,807 --> 00:51:14,799
I remember we played in Amsterdam...
363
00:51:14,927 --> 00:51:18,806
was when Derek
first came on tour with us
364
00:51:19,047 --> 00:51:20,526
We nearly didn't do that tour
365
00:51:21,007 --> 00:51:26,161
I was desperately ill,
I was having my tonsils out
366
00:51:26,807 --> 00:51:29,605
George is a very loyal person
and he said:
367
00:51:29,727 --> 00:51:34,562
George Martin
Record Producer
"If Ringo's not part of the group,
it's not the Beatles. I won't go"
368
00:51:34,727 --> 00:51:41,405
I despised the way we couldn't ever
make a decision for ourselves
369
00:51:41,527 --> 00:51:46,760
It was always like "No, sorry."
"But Ringo must go with us"
370
00:51:46,887 --> 00:51:49,082
"Sorry, we'll get a new drummer"
371
00:51:51,567 --> 00:51:57,278
Jimmy Nicol was a good drummer
who learnt Ringo's parts very well
372
00:51:57,407 --> 00:52:02,401
He rehearsed with them
and got to know the songs very well
373
00:52:05,807 --> 00:52:08,605
It was very strange
374
00:52:08,727 --> 00:52:12,879
They'd taken Jimmy Nicol and
I thought they didn't love me any more
375
00:52:13,007 --> 00:52:15,999
All that stuff went through my head
376
00:52:17,647 --> 00:52:21,879
Holland
5th June 1964
377
00:54:14,207 --> 00:54:18,837
Jimmy, will you find it difficult
to take over the role of Ringo?
378
00:54:18,967 --> 00:54:22,437
Not really, no
379
00:54:23,007 --> 00:54:27,523
I can never make up
for what Ringo is
380
00:54:27,647 --> 00:54:32,004
How long will you be doing this?
- Until next Thursday
381
00:54:32,127 --> 00:54:35,278
You're a sort of understudy.
Do you think it a great break?
382
00:54:35,407 --> 00:54:37,363
Oh yes, excellent
383
00:54:37,487 --> 00:54:40,797
Treating you good?
- Marvellous
384
00:54:41,087 --> 00:54:42,884
How is Ringo, by the way?
385
00:54:43,007 --> 00:54:46,886
His throat is so sore -
you're living on jelly and ice-cream
386
00:54:47,007 --> 00:54:51,444
I was a smoker in those days
and I was smoking the next day
387
00:54:51,887 --> 00:54:54,196
That was pretty rough
388
00:55:44,327 --> 00:55:46,557
Always good for a gag
is John, you know
389
00:55:46,687 --> 00:55:49,759
What do you expect
to do in Hong Kong?
390
00:55:55,607 --> 00:55:59,236
I don't know,
just see what's happening
391
00:55:59,367 --> 00:56:03,121
It's very different from what
I've seen before, I imagine
392
00:56:03,247 --> 00:56:07,126
Will you do any sightseeing?
- I hope so
393
00:56:12,647 --> 00:56:16,765
Kaitak Airport
Hong Kong 8th June 1964
394
00:56:17,927 --> 00:56:21,920
Hong Kong was different.
It was all army personnel
395
00:56:22,367 --> 00:56:27,600
It was very funny. We'd expected Asians
but it was the British Army
396
00:56:32,007 --> 00:56:36,683
It was all these British people,
there weren't any Chinese there
397
00:56:44,367 --> 00:56:48,326
It was a slightly flat show,
in a smallish place
398
00:56:48,447 --> 00:56:51,678
They all behaved themselves
and all looked like...
399
00:56:51,807 --> 00:56:55,197
They looked like a khaki audience.
It was slightly strange
400
00:56:55,327 --> 00:56:59,002
We just played. I don't think
we enjoyed the show too much
401
00:57:08,887 --> 00:57:13,597
Mascot Airport
Sydney 11th June 1964
402
00:57:19,847 --> 00:57:23,840
We had these capes and they were
disasters in Australia
403
00:57:23,967 --> 00:57:27,801
The rain hit them
and the dye came out
404
00:57:27,927 --> 00:57:33,320
They put the Beatles
on the back of a truck
405
00:57:33,487 --> 00:57:38,766
They had umbrellas
and were wearing these capes
406
00:57:38,887 --> 00:57:40,878
I was OK, I was in the cab
407
00:57:41,047 --> 00:57:45,757
The driver wouldn't go any faster,
even though it was pouring
408
00:57:45,927 --> 00:57:51,877
He said "These kids have waited
24 hours to see these guys"
409
00:57:52,287 --> 00:57:55,120
We got to the hotel
and everybody was blue
410
00:57:55,247 --> 00:57:59,365
because the dye had soaked off
these coats from Hong Kong
411
00:58:20,887 --> 00:58:26,757
They played Amsterdam, Hong Kong,
and I met them in Australia
412
00:58:27,287 --> 00:58:33,283
The flight was just horrendous
to Australia, it still is
413
00:58:33,407 --> 00:58:37,559
It may be two hours less now
but it's still a hell of a long way
414
00:58:38,407 --> 00:58:43,527
I remember getting off the plane
and feeling like a disaster area
415
00:58:44,607 --> 00:58:48,885
But Australia was fabulous, being
back with the boys and in the band
416
00:58:49,007 --> 00:58:52,761
They'd bought me presents
in Hong Kong
417
00:58:52,927 --> 00:58:57,045
That was a really nice moment
418
00:58:59,287 --> 00:59:03,678
It's very nice for all of us
to have back with us now... Ringo!
419
00:59:06,087 --> 00:59:10,797
Festival Hall Melbourne
17th June 1964
420
00:59:15,807 --> 00:59:21,359
We'd like to carry on now
with a song we recorded not long ago
421
00:59:21,487 --> 00:59:24,285
All My Loving
422
01:00:27,727 --> 01:00:33,723
When the Beatles arrived in Adelaide,
they were greeted by 300000 fans
423
01:00:33,847 --> 01:00:39,717
Not surprising as they occupy the top
6 placings on the Australian chart
424
01:00:39,847 --> 01:00:43,317
Australia is truly
in the grip of Beatlemania
425
01:00:47,487 --> 01:00:50,285
That was like a hero's welcome
426
01:00:50,407 --> 01:00:54,923
You'd go to the town hall
and they'd all be in the centre
427
01:00:55,087 --> 01:00:57,203
I think we enjoyed all that stuff
428
01:00:57,487 --> 01:01:03,403
It could be wearing but, with that
many people, we were flabbergasted
429
01:01:03,687 --> 01:01:07,999
Yes, shocked and stunned, just happy
430
01:01:08,127 --> 01:01:14,043
Everybody saying "There's more
people than came to see the Queen"
431
01:01:14,887 --> 01:01:17,355
I should think so -
she didn't have any hit records
432
01:01:17,487 --> 01:01:21,480
More people came to see
us there than anywhere
433
01:01:21,607 --> 01:01:24,201
I think the whole
of Australia was there
434
01:01:24,527 --> 01:01:28,964
We were on the roof of some hotel
435
01:01:29,087 --> 01:01:33,319
I don't know if it was Sydney
or Adelaide, or where
436
01:01:33,447 --> 01:01:37,235
There were thousands
and thousands of kids
437
01:01:37,367 --> 01:01:42,316
One of the things
that stuck in my mind
438
01:01:42,447 --> 01:01:48,966
was some guy on crutches -
I don't know why I focused on him
439
01:01:49,087 --> 01:01:52,284
He was shouting,
getting all excited
440
01:01:52,407 --> 01:01:58,198
I saw him throw his crutches away,
like he was healed
441
01:01:58,527 --> 01:02:02,122
and he fell right on his face.
He just fell over
442
01:02:03,007 --> 01:02:08,798
Before we go, we'd like to say
to all of you here tonight
443
01:02:09,047 --> 01:02:13,245
and to everybody who's come
to see us on this tour...
444
01:02:13,367 --> 01:02:16,564
We'd like to say, thank you all
very much for coming along
445
01:05:03,687 --> 01:05:08,841
World Premiere - A Hard Day's Night
London 6th July 1964
446
01:06:19,247 --> 01:06:24,640
I think Hard Day's Night had a lot
of comedy in it. People said:
447
01:06:24,767 --> 01:06:27,281
"They're young Marx Brothers"
448
01:06:27,407 --> 01:06:32,003
There had never been four people
doing comedy besides them
449
01:06:32,167 --> 01:06:35,921
Yeah, we were called Britain's
answer to the Marx Brothers
450
01:06:36,047 --> 01:06:38,925
It was very well received
and it did very well
451
01:06:39,767 --> 01:06:44,124
That was part of the Beatles,
they were very funny
452
01:06:44,247 --> 01:06:46,238
I mean, they actually were funny
453
01:06:46,407 --> 01:06:49,365
I found it exciting. I loved it
454
01:06:49,887 --> 01:06:53,926
When you first see yourself on the
big screen, you watch yourself
455
01:06:54,047 --> 01:06:58,757
Look at that ear, that nose, my hair
sticking out-each of us did that
456
01:07:14,087 --> 01:07:18,877
They're very supportive, the Liverpool
people-they loved us getting on
457
01:07:19,007 --> 01:07:24,320
They felt we were traitors when we left,
but the whole town was behind us
458
01:07:24,567 --> 01:07:26,683
We heard that we were
finished in Liverpool
459
01:07:27,047 --> 01:07:31,086
After a bit we began to believe it.
We thought, we don't want to go home
460
01:07:31,207 --> 01:07:34,244
We'll just sneak home to our houses
461
01:07:34,367 --> 01:07:39,077
They said "I've been to the Cavern.
They don't like you any more"
462
01:07:39,247 --> 01:07:42,284
Of course, they were talking to people
who didn't know us anyway
463
01:07:42,447 --> 01:07:44,881
We went back and it was
one of the best ever
464
01:07:49,167 --> 01:07:53,763
Liverpool Airport
10th July 1964
