From The Beatles Monthly Book, N°105, January 1985:
At the London premiere of Paul’s “Broad Street” film, on November 29, someone in the cinema, much to the amusement of everybody, lustily cried out “Thank God!” at the end of the movie when Bryan Brown says “We got the tapes”. All eyes immediately fell on Paul McCartney to sec if he was upset by the apparent insult. He wasn’t — for it was he who shouted it out! If all goes according to schedule the film will go on general London release on January 11 and then move out nationwide at the end of this month.
