The Beatles spent part of the day at the Paris studios of the American Forces Network recording a radio interview that would be broadcast on a show called Weekend World to US troops stationed in West Germany.

In the evening it was back to the Olympia Theatre for two more shows.

The Beatles played another two shows at the Olympia Theatre in Paris.

Earlier in the day a short interview with the group was broadcast on the French radio station Europe 1

The on going series of performances at the Olympia Theatre in Paris usually consisted of two shows each night, with a third show, a matinee performance, added on Sundays.

A portion of this Sunday’s matinee was broadcast live by the French radio station Europe 1 during its Musicorama show. Listeners heard The Beatles perform five numbers, From Me To You, This Boy, I Want To Hold Your Hand, She Loves You and Twist & Shout.

After the taping The Beatles headed back to the Astoria Cinema in Finsbury Park for two more performances of The Beatles Christmas Show.

Before the Beatles performed two more houses of The Beatles Christmas Show at the Astoria Cinema in Finsbury Park, George and Ringo taped a segment for the BBC radio show The Public Ear.

The segment took the form of an audio letter encouraging listeners to listen to the American R&B artists that had influenced the Beatles themselves and was broadcast on the 12th January.

At the BBC Paris Studios in London, The Beatles record a two-hour radio special to be broadcast on the Boxing Day Holiday (26th December). Originally developed under the title Beatletime, the show was renamed as From Us To You and The Beatles recorded a suitable altered version of From Me To You to be used as the show’s theme song.

The show was hosted by Australian comedian Rolf Harris and also featured seven other acts. Along with chatter and jokes, listeners heard The Beatles perform She Loves You, All My Loving, Roll Over Beethoven, Till There Was You, Boys, Money (That’s What I Want), I Saw Her Standing There and I Want To Hold Your Hand.

At the Playhouse Theatre in London, The Beatles tape an appearance for the BBC radio show Saturday Club to be broadcast on 21st December.

The group performed six songs, All My Loving, This Boy, I Want To Hold Your Hand, Till There Was You, Roll Over Beethoven and She Loves You as well as two fun numbers, a scat style All I Want For Christmas Is A Bottle and the Crimble Mudley, a 29 second medley made up of extracts from Love Me Do, Please Please Me, From Me To You, She Loves You, I Want To Hold Your Hand and Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer!

The Beatles play a gig at the Gaumont Cinema in Doncaster.

On this occasion the usual pre-gig interview has a twist. Instead of being interviewed for a local TV or radio station the boys are interviewed by Australian Dibbs Mather for the BBC’s Transcription Service. The interview will only be available for use outside the UK and was broadcast as part of the Dateline London transmission and the Calling Australia radio show.

The Beatles returned from a few days off to what was probably one of the busiest days of their career to date.

At home in Liverpool for the first time in four months they would record two TV shows, record a radio interview and play two shows – all in one day.

The day’s activities kicked off at the Empire Theater with a specially recorded edition of the popular BBC TV show Juke Box Jury in which celebrity guests listened to new pop releases and determined if they would be a “Hit” or a “Miss.” On this occasion all four panelists would be Beatles. The show was recorded in front of 2500 screaming members of the Northern Area Beatles Fan Club, and broadcast (screams and all) later that evening.

30 minutes after the taping of Jule Box Jury had wrapped, The Beatles once again took to the stage of the Empire, in front of the same (still screaming) fans for a 45 minute show. 30 minutes of the show would be broadcast by the BBC as It’s The Beatles later that same evening.

Apparently the screaming was so loud that the BBC cameramen and sound recordists couldn’t hear the directors instructions and the end result was deemed to be somewhat of a technical embarrassment by the BBC management.

After the show The Beatles still had one other task to do for the BBC. They recorded a short interview segment for later transmission on the Christmas Day radio show Top Pops of 1963.

With all their BBC obligations fulfilled The Beatles received a police escort down especially closed off streets as they transferred to the near by Odeon Cinema, where they gave two evening performances as part of their continuing tour.

The Beatles played two houses at the ABC Cinema in Huddersfield. Between the two houses they were interviewed by a representative from the Huddersfield Tape Recording Society for a local hospital-radio show called Music Box. The interviewer was a young Gordon Kaye, who years later would become one of Britain’s best loved TV comedians.
