The couple stepped out to watch the live concert film Rockshow, which documents Paul McCartney & Wings' tour across America.
As well as being shown at BAFTA the film was screened in 500 cinemas across the country.
'Rockshow' was shot in 1976 when Paul McCartney & Wings undertook the epic Wings over the World tour - the largest-scale tour they would ever undertake as a band.

Although filmed on this tour at the enormous Kingdome in Seattle, ‘Rockshow’, originally a cut down version of the concert, was not premiered until November 1980 in New York and April 1981 in London.
It was originally released on Betamax (later on laserdisc) but it’s only now that the complete full length concert is being made available fully restored from the original 35mm film and with restored & remastered sound, including a 5.1 mix for the first time.
