Paul McCartney 1968, hand-drawn portrait of him singing “Hey Jude” with the Beatles for the David Frost Show (Frost On Saturday), Wednesday, September 4, 1968 at Twickenham Film Studios southwest of London, UK.
On September 4, 1968 The Beatles filmed promotional clips for ‘Hey Jude’ and ‘Revolution’ at Twickenham Film Studios.
They arrived at the studios at 1.30pm and worked until evening. The set, at the studio’s stage one, had been assembled over the previous three days.
The completed films – two for each song, both in color – were directed by Michael Lindsay-Hogg, whom had worked with The Beatles on the clips for ‘Paperback Writer’ and ‘Rain’ in 1966.
‘Hey Jude’ was the first to be made, and featured Paul McCartney seated at an upright piano, John Lennon and George Harrison on a nearby podium with guitars, and Ringo Starr positioned on a drum riser behind them.
A 36-piece orchestra was also assembled, the members wearing white tuxedos, and 300 extras were brought in for the finale. The latter had been recruited after 20 students handed out leaflets in the area, and The Beatles’ assistant Mal Evans invited a number of fans from outside EMI Studios.
At least three takes of ‘Hey Jude’ were filmed, and the most commonly-seen promo was an edit of takes one and three. In each of them McCartney sang along to the studio vocals, and ad-libbed live during the extended ending.
The ‘Hey Jude’ film had its world premiere on September 8, 1968 on ‘Frost On Saturday’, presented by David Frost. To make it seem as though The Beatles were on the program, David Frost visited Twickenham the day of the shoot to record an introduction.
