File:Paul McCartney & Wings - Big Barn Bed (Live from "The Bruce McMouse Show", 1973)-2

Towards the end of Wings 1972 European tour, Paul decided to film some of the concerts for a potential TV special. It seems that all the filming was done during the day at the venue of the actual concert that would take place that night and a "fake" audience was specially filmed for later inclusion to give the impression it was an actual live concert.

Now at some point, Paul decided to incorporate some animated footage of a family of mice who live under the stage. The storyboard called for some interaction between the band and the mice so further footage had to be filmed around June/July 1973 at Twickenham Studios in London. The 1973 live parts are very obvious as Paul has much longer hair compared to the 1972 footage even though they tried to use the same stage clothing, the different length of hair gives it away.

In the original Bruce McMouse film, the sound was replaced with studio audio. I changed it back to a live version on this edit, from the Newcastle 1973 concert.
