Â鶹Éç

The relationship between The Beatles and the Â鶹Éç has always been a special and fascinating one. This programme looks back at some key moments that saw the Â鶹Éç document the band’s journey as they went from Merseybeat heroes with mop-tops and MBEs to seeing out the sixties as long-haired heroes of the counter-culture.

In the early years, an interview on the Â鶹Éç was something the band would pursue and embrace, but as their fame spread, their TV appearances became increasingly rare. The changing dynamic is captured here through a combination of classic music performances and the very best moments from the Â鶹Éç’s archives. Songs featured include the fresh sound of She Loves You to the era-defining special performance of All You Need Is Love.
