Missing Believed Wiped: Mid-Summer Special

A long-lost BBC documentary celebrating the release of Abbey Road screens alongside a special collection of recently uncovered items.

  • Total running time 110min

The centrepiece of this collection of recently discovered, mostly musical, items is a treasure from the extraordinary video archive of counterculture figure Jack Henry Moore. Among his eclectic and wide-ranging collection is footage from a long-lost Late-Night Line-Up special celebrating the 1969 release of the Beatles’ Abbey Road. Rowan Ayers, the editor for Line-Up at the time, said that he planned to ‘illustrate the music with captions, film sequences and electronic devices’. Dig Media, the custodians of the Moore Archive, will present a work-in-progress version of the programme.
