Today is the anniversary of The Beatles’ final concert, which took place on the rooftop of Savile Row 3 in London, headquarter of The Beatles and their Apple company. The occasion is celebrated every year by a gathering of fans lead by London Beatles guide Richard Porter. This year, they will be accompanied by a camera team and Chris O’Dell, former secretary of Apple and part of the rooftop audience in 1969. The camera team is there to film a documentary about Miss O’Dell, who wrote a book – Miss O’Dell: Hard Days and Long Nights with The Beatles, The Stones, Bob Dylan and Eric Clapton –  about her rock and roll experiences a few years ago.

In other words, plenty of stories to tell! The production company of the documentary is Liverpool West Productions.
