Performing for the show “Teenager’s Turn – Here We Go”, the band arrived at the Playhouse Theatre in Manchester early and started rehearsing from 3:45pm. Later in the evening between 8 and 8:45pm, The Beatles donned suits for the very first time and performed three cover songs, “Dream Baby (How Long Must I Dream)”, “Memphis, Tennessee” and “Please Mister Postman”.

Interestingly, the band also reportedly performed an early McCartney-Lennon original “Hello Little Girl” but while the covers were broadcast, “Hello Little Girl was absent”. It is also worth noting that at this point in time, Ringo Starr had not yet joined the group, so the line-up featured John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Pete Best.

The show was broadcast the following day on the BBC Light Programme, between 5 and 5:30pm. The recording is available above.
