Notes: As news outlets went into overdrive following the announcement that The Beatles were to be awarded MBEs, a press
conference was hastily convened at Twickenham Film Studios where the group had been watching a rough edit of the Help! film.

John Lennon was 70 minutes late for the conference, and had missed the film screening as he had been in bed. In the end he had
to be fetched from his home in Weybridge by Brian Epstein.

At 1.30pm all four Beatles appeared in front of 150 reporters at the studios.

The "Associated Press" were there and filmed the Beatles arriving, some of the press conference, the interview & the Beatles
leaving.This is the raw footage that was filmed both with and without sound.
