The Brian Epstein Story: Tomorrow Never Knows

Concluding the two-part profile of the pop manager who brought global success to the Beatles. By the mid-sixties, the group's fame meant Epstein had little time to devote to the other acts under his control.

After the Beatles decided in 1966 to stop touring, Epstein began to lose touch with the group whose lives he had organised for five years.

But, in August 1967, he was found dead in his London home - killed by a mysterious drug overdose aged just 32.
