I love the father /son relationship that Paul and George Martin had. :)

Paul really loved what he is doing....he loved playing in concerts but he also does not mind playing in small ones. He simply loves music and he seemed to be the driving force anong the Beatles ..wonderful human being.

I remember first hearing "No more lonely nights" on the radio. i was amazed, what a great song.

The most elusive? Hardly. He is the most available and forthcoming. You get what you see. A world treasure of a man.

24:41 I love how he slips in that slight hint of horn sound before he starts the line "Your day breaks". He's just feeling it all. What a musician!

Another gift from someone's personal archives. Praise God for the people who preserve these treasures - and KZfaq, for providing the platform to bring them all together.

“ No more lonely nights” is such a great song , awful that it’s never ever mentioned or played on the radio .

So it appears I have been stood up on a first date on valentines day after making a huge (and amazing) dinner... I'm not gonna lie, it hurts. Although this is a huge bummer and I should be hating life, I'm not. I have a cat on my lap, which I love, and I found this. This movie reminds me of my childhood and my father who passed when I was young. I am so happy I found this, it really turned my night around... Thank you!

Is there a harder working more productive pure artist than Sir Paul? What an amazing human being.

So cool! Thanks for sharing. Love seeing Paul and George work. Professional, natural, easy. Paul just loves creating. He is my hero.

The sad eyes Paul has after he says he would like to write with John Lennon again "but he's not here" coupled with the guitar note playing underneath is just such an emotional combination. Like just an overall sad moment thinking about his best friend

I loved Broad Street...the idea was great...the dancing scenes...Eleanor Rigby...of course the music and the twist at the end....superb!

Such a level headed man. Paul handled success and the difficulty of defeat so so well. A great man.

That's because he's a kind, gentle and caring person! We, as fans, are his career! That's one of many reasons why I love him Soo very much!! ❤❤❤❤💋💋💋

So special hearing Paul talk about him and John - and George talking about his understanding of Paul. Very intimate and moving.

Never saw this interview before, thanks for it.

Mr McCartney is a great conversationalist. He seems to always go out of his way to have a great chat!!!

He Is Just The Biggest Genius Musically The World Has Ever Seen And Heard !

When Paul started playing 'For No One' I just had to grab my Epiphone acoustic (wish it was the 64' Texan like Paul's) and learn it up. Five minutes and seven chords later, voila, that's definitely going in the mellow part of my bands set-list. Luckily our keyboard player sings like a young Paul so this should sound really awesome. Thanks Paul, you are such an awesome all around great musician. You've probably forgotten more musical knowledge than I'll ever be able to learn. Am I jealous? No! Envious? Hell yes! George Martin too, what a genius and a nice man.

Have never seen this before. Really cool video even now, or rather especially now in 2020, ...36 years after (omg). Gonna watch it again )

Loved watching Paul and George Martin work together 🙌

George Martin-- what a brilliant, interesting, creative person. He was the perfect person in the right place at the right time for the Beatles. Imagine if ALL artists could enjoy that kind of simpatico meeting-of-minds.

This was such an interesting and well done doc. I have more admiration for Paul after watching. Some great clips of him singing as well, in which his voice was just as good as when originally sung.

Of all the videos I have seen of Paul McCartney, I can’t even count, I have never seen Or heard him do a solo on his bass guitar. This is the first so thank you

Paul casually singing For No One, just by himself acoustically, not having ever performed it since the recording, proves how talented he just is, because this version is just as iconic as the recorded one from decades before.

He always looks like he wants approval for everything. You have nothing to prove Paul. Greatest musician of all time

McCartney also speaks highly of George Martin and has even said he was like a second father. George Martin was an amazing producer. He taught Paul, The Beatles and so many other musicians how to make their music better and always added great ideas to simple songs which turned them into masterpieces.

Martin was an indredible producer with his classical training, a fairly deep technical background as well. Paul's reference to his video with the suggestions he made about cellos was quite interesting when Martin told him that the upper range was too much for the instrument.

"Pop music - a 3 minute folk song" - a neat definition, from Paul. That definition adds value to the whole modern music era for me. Especially as l felt my love for it in the early years was like a guilty pleasure

Been looking for this forever. Thanks so much for posting.

Oh my God , I never saw this documentary before. It's amazing.

*One of the best TV theme tunes* ...wish it was longer, though!

It would nice if the movie was remastered for Blu ray DVD with bonus features such as unseen scenes or music not in the original film.Also an expanded version of the soundtrack album by Giles Martin would be good.Also it would be a treat to see it on British TV.

Later Paul knows by now that For no one was much better song than any 84 tunes but its ok he never got stuck no matter what. Thank you Paul for been here now.

Grande Paul...genio musicale vivente

George Martin was nearly 60 here! The man aged like bloody wine

Thanks, remember seeing that on TV back in the day but never on YT in full !

Ringo and Paul together are so funny! 😂😂

I love this.

Good night nurse,he is SO handsome!

This is what the Bravo channel used to look like.

Great!Thx for posting..Glad that there is a vid with this film-rehearsals!The video-title should be somehow related to the film "Give my regards to Broadstreet"(rehearsals,making of or similar) 20:50 ff. John Paul Jones in the back .Hearing his bass-track :-)

Remember seeing this back whe it was first shown, had it on VHS for years and years but all lost in the mists of time! Great post!!

Boy that opening sequence was trippy

Super beauty tv documentary The South Bank...!!! 👍👍👍👍 Here in 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽México City I saw in 1993 by Chanel 22 (Mexican Televition)...

Agree with his view on the early "simple" songs. My favourites too, Ask Me Why, Tell Me Why, I'll Get You, It Won't Be Long, etc.. great work.

Thanks for this. Great upload. Not seen this before. Btw Ommadawn is an awesome album.

i ADORE ringo in this

He gets choked up when he’s asked about John near the end. 😢

we need a bass solo from Paul,and a drum solo from Ringo !

Good God, he is gorgeous

The Best part of this starts at 23:18 ,,,The horns were perfect Sir Paul!!

Then again Sir Paul likes to experiment with different results over the years.The solo career has been a bit of a hotch potch at times.There have also been moments of genius.I would like to see a comprehensive and definitive compilation of his best 80s material in a musical and visual form obviously including Broad Street.

I went to see Broadstreet the week it opened in 1984 and the theater was 90% EMPTY. I'm not quite sure why people didn;t appreciate the mans music back then as thyey do today

Just as Magical Mystery Your as a film is not great, some of the sequences are incredible. Same with Broadstreet; it was awful as a "film", but as a series of videos, musical performances...it's quite good. The "Yesterday/Here, There and Everywhere/Wanderlust" medley is just beautiful. I like that version of "Wanderlust" in Broadstreet better than the Tug Of War version.

South Bank show had a Killer theme tune

Wow - his doing "For No One" - magic! 23:15

At First it sounds like Paul's been playing Super Mario Bros. when he starts working on the arrangement with George. However Super Mario Bros. came out a year after this special. Particularly the I Underground BGM.

¡Qué lindos muchachos!.😮😅😊

The soundtrack album is better than the movie although at least Sir Paul did by himself.

As a movie a bit of editing and a better storyline might have made it a classic.The music is the best thing about the film with some nice scenes with Ringo and George Martin.

Very human worries and unknowns he overcame

The movie was poor but I admire his guts for trying something different.

Paul only looks about 25 here with the curtains haircut

I liked the film. Not exactly Citizen Kane, but so what? Sir Paul was at the time (and still is) the man.

Some of the dubs of Broad Street movie are like a semi-tone higher than the record and officially released film. I've seen TV versions like that and the clips here in the show are the same. Macca sounds chipmunky on several songs...weird. I wouldn't think it was intentional.

I watch at Broad Street as just a long music video

muy buenooooooooooooooo

That's the remnants of Paul's Pipes of Peace video haircut we see at the very beginning of the programme I think

Te amo TANTO Paulina.

The concept of this movie was spot-on, but it was, unfortunately, a cheesy flop. But man-oh-man, as bad as the movie was, the music and related music scenes were a joy. David Gilmore's guitar solo on No More Lonely Nights is totally kick-ass!

One of the few things that do annoy me about Paul is how he buries a lot of feelings, like when he’s talking about John he just says “what can you do?”.

This is William (Billy) Shepherd. Paul McCartney died on September 11 1966 in car crash. This is the truth.

Oh wow, thanks for posting this, Billy got a bit carried away but overall I enjoyed seeing them having fun.

in retrospect, the correct solution to the problem of the eleanor rigby dream sequence being 8 minutes longer than expected would probably have been to cut 8 minutes out of the film rather than write 8 extra minutes of orchestral meanderings...

Would it be fair to say the South Bank Show theme tune is a superb piece of music?

The Edge/U2 is all in his playing in that first clip - a major influence by 1984

What a genius

Good to see this again - Terrible movie, great soundtrack, though I can never get over THAT hairstyle!! :o

COULD STILL CALL IT BEATLES STUFF!

The Walrus was Ringo

Bach…Mozart… Beethoven… Tchaikovsky… McCartney!

If you feel a little glum, to Hergest Ridge you should come.

great version of for noone

I just found out, that George Martin had perfect pitch? Had never heard that before. Think Paul has it?

Can’t wait until 1993 when I see macca sport a bowl head

What bass is he playing in the beginning of the video? Yamaha?

Thumbs down must be stones fans

Thank god thay have stopped dear animals going on long journeys across the channel to be killed,so it stopped for good yesterday, i hope Paul reads my comment xxxx

Those chords he is pumping out at 1:50 sound a lot like DELBERT MCCLINTON - Shaky Ground..

BASS AND DRUM SOLO

What's the name of the song in 08:00 of the video? Is it on the soundtrack?

First Chance that incidental music? not quite correct. He composed the music for the film in the family way 1966. You can tell from this interview that George Martin really was a good sounding board for the Beatles

I love when brilliant musicians work on shitty projects bc the next one is usually really good😂

I think I might be the only one who found us a little bit depressing. The banality of the songwriting process, and the film making. Are used to be a tape op at Air Studios btw.

Does anybody know what the tune is called that is playing at 8:05 please?

What year is this?

"7mins in let's have fun" to the film? "well it wasn't professional." Honest.

Is that Linda through the window at 5:49?

Tug of War was really good, but then he followed it up with Say Say Say and The Girl is Mine, two of his worst songs this side of Goodnight Tonight.
