SATURDAY NIGHT AT THE MOVIES 046: BRITISH BROADCASTING CORPORATION AND THE BEATLES

 

The relationship between The Beatles and the British Broadcasting Company (BBC) has always been a special and fascinating one. This programme looks back at some key moments that saw the BBC document the band's journey as they went from Merseybeat heroes with mop-tops and MBE's to seeing out the sixties as long-haired heroes of the counter-culture, ending this special with the recent screening of the latest Beatle gem. Throughout the film, there's new and exciting footage concerning The Beatles and their time. A documentary not to be missed.  

But before we get to the main feature, let's enjoy... 

The Pre-Show: 

 

   

In our "Film Extras" section we will enjoy our now, not so rare, "double feature" prediction, as we've had the opportunity of enjoying in other occasions. But, why settle for two when we have the chance of having three? As you can well see in the above pictures, Saturday Night At The Movies brings you the opportunity of deciding which will be our main feature for the night, as "The Beatles In Oz" and "The Brian Epstein Story" can perfectly substitute "The Beatles & the BBC". So, blest thou who hath such a dilemma.   

Concerning our "TV On Deck" section, we continue with our 60s-70s comedy sitcoms and our cartoon delight. Plus our "newbie" and his continued adventures in Las Vegas, or is it "The White House"?
