The 16th date of The Beatles’ UK tour with Roy Orbison was a return to London, with a concert at the Granada Cinema in Woolwich.
This was the group’s only performance at the venue, which later became a bingo hall.
The Beatles’ repertoire throughout the Roy Orbison tour contained seven songs: Some Other Guy, Do You Want To Know A Secret, Love Me Do, From Me To You, Please Please Me, I Saw Her Standing There and Twist And Shout.
