Yes. The entire hour-long made for TV The Beatles film. Forty years ago today, the film premiered on BBC1 to a very, very negative response.

With every job that comes with co-workers there are people that you like and there are people that you don’t. More often than not, the majority of which can be shuffled into the latter of the two groups. One of my managers, Joe, is one of the co-workers that I am quite fond of. Unfortunately, [...]
