On November 25th, 1963, The Beatles taped a mimed performance of their new single, "I Want To Hold Your Hand"/"This Boy" for use on two Granada TV shows, Late Scene Extra and Scene At 6.30. They were also interviewed, along with Liverpool comedian Ken Dodd, by host Gay Byrne. Only a few minutes of the sometimes salty interview were used in the finished broadcasts, but the full 15-minute recording has survived.

Dezo Hoffmann: “Back on their own territory, we could hardly get the session done without them getting mobbed. Beatlemania had really started.”

Studio, Dick James House. Time unknown. Recording: "Pantomime: Everywhere It's Christmas".

Dick James House, 71-75 New Oxford Street, London
Producer: George Martin

The Beatles' fourth Christmas record, Pantomime: Everywhere It's Christmas, was recorded on this day at the first floor demo studio owned by their publisher, Dick James.

Each member of The Beatles sang on the recording, with Paul McCartney also playing piano. A number of songs and skits were recorded, which were edited into a 10-part, six-minute piece on 2 December. The songs included Everywhere It's Christmas, Orowainya, and Please Don't Bring Your Banjo Back, and the sketches included Podgy The Bear And Jasper, and Felpin Mansions.

We worked it out between us. Paul did most of the work on it. He thought up the 'Pantomime' title and the two song things.

The Beatles' Fourth Christmas Record – Pantomime: Everywhere It's Christmas was edited by The Beatles' press officer at Abbey Road on 2 December 1966, and was sent to members of The Beatles' UK fan club on 16 December

>John returns his MBE.

Как известно, отказ от MBE сопровождался письмом
на имя королевы, подписанным собственноручно Джоном.
В письме называются причины отказа, среди которых
в качестве прикола указывается падение рейтинга песни
Cold Turkey. Расшифровка подписи гласит: John Lennon of Bag
(на приложенном снимке частично отсутствует).
