. In this iconic photo print, we are transported back to June 25,1967, witnessing a historic moment in television history. It was the day when Our World, the first live global television link, connected 24 countries and captivated an astounding audience of 400 million viewers. As part of their contribution to this groundbreaking event, the BBC had commissioned none other than The Beatles to write a song representing the United Kingdom. At Abbey Road Studios on June 24th, just one day before the broadcast, we see John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr standing together with anticipation and excitement radiating from their youthful faces.
