Notes: Almost every news outlet around the World filmed The Beatles arrival in Australia at Sydney`s Mascot Airport.
They arrived during a torrential rain storm but were still expected to get on the back of a flat-bed truck and do a circuit of the airport for the thousands of fans whom most of had been there all night.
Needless to say the boys got soaked and their new suits, they had purchased in Hong Kong, got ruined.
"British Movietone" put together a newsreel for use in theatres. This is the raw footage that was filmed from numerous cameras and angles.
This is footage from the "Associated Press".
More of the usual scenes though there are some different nice close-ups. Shame the quality isn`t better.
