Join us for a screening of the film. A Hard Day's Night, followed by a conversation between Samira and Dr Holly Tessler.
Samira is an award-winning writer and broadcaster. In 2023, she made headlines around the world for uncovering the earliest complete concert recording of The Beatles performing in the UK, at Stowe School in 1963, and helped to secure its acquisition by the British Library for the nation.
Full of insights from the cast and crew, and brimming with new analysis, Samira’s book shows brilliantly how the film captures the indelible image of the Fab Four.
Samira Ahmed presents Front Row on Radio 4, and Newswatch on BBC One. She co-hosts the TV history podcast Through the Square Window and writes a column for New Humanist magazine.
Samira will be joined by Dr Holly Tessler, Senior Lecturer in Music Industries and director of The Beatles, Heritage and Culture MA programme.
