Notes: To promote their new single, The Beatles appeared on "Top of The Pops" and mimed to both sides of the record - "Ticket To Ride" and "Yes it is".
Footage of this performance was destroyed by the BBC but not before a brief snippet (25 seconds) was unexpectedly used in an episode of "Doctor Who".
In a scene from the episode "The Chase" (broadcast on May 22, 1965 ) the Doctor shows his companions a "time and space visualiser" which can show scenes from the past.
They set the controls to 1965 and up pops The Beatles performing "Ticket To Ride" from their TOTP performance.
Luckily this episode, unlike many episodes of "Dr. Who", was not destroyed and was re-discovered in the 1980`s and is now available on DVD.
