1965 In the Bahamas, filming their second movie "Eight Arms to Hold You" (later re-titled "HELP!"), The Beatles shoot scenes at Nassau International Airport, descending steps leading from their airplane to the ground. The Beatles wildly take photos of one another as they make their way down the steps.

Later, when the song is joined with "With a Little Help From My Friends", screams will be added from a tape of the Beatles in concert at the Hollywood Bowl.
