Ringo appeared on Cilla Black's TV show. She was another Epstein-managed act. Shortly before his death, Brian Epstein had gotten her this show. Early in this day, at 10:30 AM to 1:00 PM and again at 2:00 to 6:30 PM, rehearsals took place. The program, broadcast by BBC1 from 8:00 to 8:50 had Ringo giving several guest appearances. He was first seen when the camera panned to show all of that week's guest stars. Also among that week's guest stars were Spike Milligan and the ventriloquist Peter Brough. Ringo was featured in two sketches. The first included Cilla, pretending to be a dummy, with Ringo pretending to be a ventriloquist. Together, they sang two songs, Nellie Dean and Do You Like Me?.
