(Thursday, October 25, 1962, 8:00-8:45 p.m. British Summer Time) — The still largely known British rock music band The Beatles performed three songs tonight at Playhouse Theater in Manchester, England, for tomorrow’s 5:00 p.m. BBC Light Programme Here We Go.

This was The Beatles’ third appearance on the show and the group’s first radio session featuring Ringo Starr as the permanent drummer.

It was recorded before a studio audience at the Playhouse Theatre in Hulme, Manchester. Rehearsals took place from 4:00 p.m. and the show was taped from 8:00-8:45 p.m. BST.

For the recording The Beatles performed four songs: “Love Me Do,” “A Taste Of Honey,” “P.S. I Love You,” and “Sheila.”

The latter song was made famous by Tommy Roe. It was edited out of the final broadcast, however, as there was only space for three of The Beatles’ songs.
