The relationship between The Beatles and the BBC has always been a special and fascinating one. This special looks back at some key moments that saw the BBC document the band’s journey as they went from Merseybeat heroes with mop-tops and MBEs to seeing out the sixties as long-haired heroes of the counter-culture.
