Notes: John Lennon filmed a second appearance on the comedy television show Not Only But Also on 27 November 1966.

Lennon played the role of Dan, a doorman at the fictional nightclub Ad Lav. The name was a spoof on the Ad Lib Club, a venue
often frequented by The Beatles and other leading showbusiness personalities of the mid-1960s.

Lennon wore a uniform complete with top hat and gloves, and for perhaps the first time in public wore the wire-framed granny glasses that would soon become his trademark.

The 51-second sketch was filmed early in the morning on London`s Broadwick Street, beside the entrance to the underground men`s
toilet on the corner of Hopkins Street. It also featured Peter Cook as the Duke and Duchess of Windsor.
