Auction Note: Footage shot by Dawn Swane, an Australian dancer and make-up artist who at the time was working at Granada TV in Manchester.
Dawn says: 'I was in the makeup room. And so we were having some champagne and so we started to, well we were all drinking some champagne.
And anyway, I don`t know if it was John or if it was Ringo but they took the camera off me and said,
This is no way to use a camera and they sort of jiggled it upside down and inside out a bit, and everybody was just mucking around.
But that was great. I mean they were a nice group of people. They really were'.
Dawn's collection of home movies and video recordings have been donated to the NFSA by her daughter, production designer Melinda Doring.
