Notes: Between 7pm and 8.30pm The Beatles were at the BBC`s Television Theatre (since renamed the Shepherd’s Bush Empire) in
west London, to film their debut appearance on Top Of The Pops.

The show was normally broadcast from studios in Manchester, but The Beatles were allowed to pre-record, without an audience, two
songs in London. They mimed to both songs from their new single, "Can`t Buy Me Love" and "You Can`t Do That".

A fan filmed a silent home movie of some of their performance off the TV screen which has emerged on Youtube but the quality is pretty bad.
