| THANKS TO THE WESTON MERCUARY NEWSPAPER FOR THIS NEWS PAPER ARTICLE.
WESTON SUPER MARE recollections of The Beatles are being recorded this weekend for a television documentary.
The Fab Four's visit to the resort in July 1963 is the subject of a BBC programme to be shown this autumn.
And bosses at the corporation's Bristol studios will be at the Winter Gardens on Saturday to find out what impact it had on the town.
The recordings will be made at the Beatles Day event, which will take place at the seafront building all weekend. the winter grdens pavilion.
John, Paul, George and Ringo stayed in Weston for a week and drew large crowds wherever they went.
A spokesman for the BBC said: "We hope that as well as Beatles fans attending the day, people with memories of that July week in the sixties will come along and find us - people who went to see the Beatles at the Odeon, who met them as they larked about around town, who saw them at the now derelict Royal Pier Hotel or bumped into them at Brean where they famously did a photo shoot."
The footage will appear on the regional programme Inside Out West.
The corporation also wants people to bring any memorabilia from the trip to the event, which runs from 10am-5pm.
