  • The Beatles visited the Old England Hotel in Sutton On Trent for lunch on October 9th 1964, while travelling to Bradford for the first show of their 1964 Autumn UK tour.
    I visited the hotel, and spoke to Vivien Stevenette, who met The Beatles that day.

    Part 2 to this story here: czcams.com/video/ttcbY_QlyZ4/video.html . I originally intended to tell this story from a completely different point of view, but when Vivien came on board and then we got access to film inside the Old England Hotel, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to focus fully on that as it was beyond what I could have hoped for.
    Part 2 is a mysterious tale of how I got involved in this in the first place based on a photo that turned up in the most unlikeliest of places, with a personal connection, and how I had to turn in to an amateur Columbo to figure out what the heck was going on....

    I loved this! It’s so touching that Paul went out of his way to greet Vivian and have his picture taken with her. I wonder if John had a headache from not wearing his eyeglasses.

    Paul again proving that he's probably one of the nicest human beings on this planet.

    What a beautiful story! How special for that young girl to have this moment in her life - Gotta love Vivien's Mum for making a wish come true (the true heroine of the story)!!!!

    Great video, enjoyed it very much….you can tell even today the joy Vivien had meeting The Beatles, especially Paul, who went the extra mile to interact with her.

    Meeting The Beatles would no doubt have been far more memorable than some humdrum day at school.

    Wow, what a great video. I really found it interesting as I'm the same age as Vivien and would have discovered The Beatles earlier that year when they appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show. I can only imagine how excited I'd have been to have met them at that age and, especially, had my photo taken with Paul McCartney.

    Great story and well done for getting it organised. I heard a similar story about a pub further down in Norhamptonshire. However, I now realise that is the same story. As the one I heard had Paul meeting the little girl and John with sunglasses on. I am glad I now know the whole story to the bits I had heard before.

    Very cool video. What a FAB experience for Vivien. Nice to hear how Paul went out of his way to be so nice to her.

    I love the traveling episodes that you have filmed over the last few years! It is definitely a unique feature on your channel that is not seen on other Beatle channels. (Although to be fair, it would be very expensive for the US channel owners to do these travel videos in England). Really fun to see your videos taken at various Beatle locations.

    Great story and video. And I didn’t realize they had added I Should Have Known Better and I’m Happy Just To Dance With You to the late 1964 shows as well as bringing Money back. It would be great if any audio of those shows were available.

    Really fun video Andrew. I love these kinda stories videos, because there just so down to earth and relaxing. And i laughed so much when you of course had to be Paul McCartney on the recreation of the photograph (I would have done the same, but still).

    This says a lot about Paul McCartney. There's a story too that actress Alison Steadman (pre fame) tells which casts him in a good light where she follows John and Paul in search of an autograph.

    Marvelous, & post-USA & post-Hard Day's Night, which makes it even better: the band was fully formed.
    Good job the council don;t own that hotel, else it would have been knocked down years ago.

      And it doesn't look like Bill Corbett either, so it's a bit of a mystery at the moment.

      @manortheatrecompanystoke-o8346 Před 8 měsíci

      If you look at him on the internet, oddly the man on the far right of the photo looks more like Bill Corbett. He drove The Beatles during 1963 up towards the latter part of 1964.
