It was a BBC project. They involved the Beatles as they were the most famous people in the world at that time. The article leaves out all details of the European contribution to the programme.-

[edit] A Beatles project?

38.118.43.2 I have no first-hand knowledge of this broadcast, as I was only born in 1969. However, was this program really a Beatles project, or was this a BBC project with Beatles input? On the wiki page for the single "All you need is love" it states the BBC commissioned a song for OUR WORLD, which implies the BBC drove the project (probably in connection with other European/world broacasters) specifically to demonstrate the new technology. 38.118.43.2

It wasn't a Beatle project, certainly. I'm not sure if it was an international project to which the BBC contributed, or if the project was theirs. --kingboyk 07:28, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

It was a European Broadcast Union project, originating from an idea by a BBC producer. The Beatles contributed a new song that appeared near the end of the two and half hour broadcast. I wouldn't state that it was a Beatles project, because they were not involved in the planning, and were merely guests on the show.--Abebenjoe 00:42, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] External links error?

Um... the external link to the CBC's coverage actually links to an A(ustralian)BC page that is not what is described. Can someone in the know fix this? --RealGrouchy 01:55, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
