About this episode
The Ad Lib was the Beatles' favourite nightclub. They spent a lot of time here throughout 1964 and 1965 and it shaped them as people. Let's take a seat by the dancefloor, order a scotch and coke, and take part in the fascinating stories which occurred here - from hanging out with the other superstars of the Swinging Sixties to one particularly mind-expanding event involving spiked coffee and a lift which appears to be on fire.
