00:00The Beatles! They're here!
00:14I think it's just the right thing at the right time, the right manipulation.
00:18Yeah, because I think kids at that time were, there was a time where they were, well, out of the 50s, out of conservatism and all that sort of thing,
00:25and it was just a kind of release for them and they sort of grabbed onto it and went, yeah, let's do this.
00:32We know it's not right and parents thought it was really terrible for kids to do that sort of thing and go wild over a pop group.
00:38But it just had to happen eventually.
00:48It was the birth of teenagers and it's a pretty important time.
00:52It's something that is sort of second nature to us now and we don't even think about it.
00:58It was also kind of the start of pop music.
01:02That's great! I can't even hear them! I love it!
01:06Oh, what a chance!
01:11Oh, I don't believe it!
01:12I don't know, I feel like, I feel like it's actually quite tragic, what Danny is supposed to stand for, that type of guy,
01:18is because the working class had all, were all of a sudden given this freedom and power
01:22and then with the advent of pop music and the people who are marketing capitalising on the middle classes,
01:28that guy, that sort of guy lost his voice completely.
01:32If I want to listen to rock and roll, I'll do it!
01:34And if I want to comb my hair up instead of down, I'll do it!
01:36Why?
01:37Because it feels good, that's why!
01:41It used to feel better.
01:46You've all done television, what are the advantages or disadvantages in making a feature film?
01:50The good thing was that you got to analyse your character.
01:54I think, with the TV work that I've done, the character doesn't really mean anything,
02:00it's just what line happened to work in that set while you're holding a milkshake.
02:07I know that!
02:10I sort of knew what I wanted to do with Dee Dee, but I wasn't sure how I was going to bring it across
02:16because it was sort of an eight year gap between what I am and what Dee Dee was meant to be.
02:24And something just clicked, I found a voice that suited Dee Dee.
02:30And that sort of made her all sort of young and little and naive.
02:36Our Beatles who art in heaven, Dee Dee is my name.
02:41In the name of John, Paul, George and Ringo. Amen.
02:46When you saw the film finished, with everything complete, with an audience,
02:51what were your reactions?
02:54Stop laughing!
02:55Yeah, I was laughing and laughing!
02:57The thing I noticed, and I enjoyed most, was the fact that I actually liked Danny,
03:02because he was really funny.
03:03But when I was doing it, I was just, I was, you know, we were just like this all the time,
03:07going, God, go, go, we hate each other.
03:09And when I watched it, I was laughing at everything he said.
03:12God, you're such a bastard! You're great!
03:14I think all you'll have to do is snap your fingers.
03:23How old are you?
03:25Eighteen.
03:26I had distinct feelings that, about each of you,
03:29I think somehow it was sort of screwed up because of the time of working so close together,
03:32and because of my character's point of view, you know.
03:34Absolutely.
03:35I mean, they weren't all negative, but there was...
03:37Sure.
03:38A lot of them were.
03:40But when I saw the film, I liked all of it.
03:41Yeah.
03:42Yeah.
03:43But if it, I don't...
03:45Yeah.
03:46It was pretty.
03:47Yeah.
03:48You know, I'm very good.
03:49I'll see the film in the next time.
03:51I think everyone was saying,
03:52I'm scanty-like.
03:53I'm scanty-like.
03:54I'm scanty-like.
03:56I'm scanty-like.
03:58I'm scanty-like.
04:00I'm scanty-like.
04:01You know, I worked for me.
04:02I'm scanty-like.
04:03You know, how about this film,
04:04you know!
04:05I'm so excited because I could take my life for it.
