## Resource

In this week's episode Paul and Mark discuss what it was like to be a band looking for fame in the early 1960's and was it all they hoped it would be, when they achieved it! The discussion is centred around 4 British films originally released between the mid-60's and early 70's. The Beatles own 'A Hard Day's Night'. Two vehicles for 70's heartthrob David Essex 'That'll Be The Day' staring Ringo and 'Stardust'. Plus the now cult classic 'Slade In Flame'. Welcome to episode 43 of Fixing A Hole.
