  Bonds of Blood   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Alun kept his dream secret, repeating over and over the litany of commands he overheard the swordmaster give his young charges until he knew them by rote; and practiced them daily, beating on the rotting elm by the creek with a solid branch until the moves became a part of him.
Alun was at his usual place, in the shade of the cold, stone wall, watching the boys and their relentless trainer as he paced watchfully around them.
Alun, unaware that he had grown almost a foot, was lean and taut with muscle, and his face had lost its boyishness, hardened by relentless exercise and the hollowness that filled his heart.

 A Hard Day's Night (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Screenwriter Alun Owen was chosen because they were familiar with his play No Trams to Lime Street, and Owen had a knack for Liverpudlian dialogue.
Owen spent several days with the group, who told him their lives were like "a room and a car and a room and a car and a room and car".
He realised by 1964 The Beatles were prisoners of their own fame, and their schedule of performances and studio work by that time was extremely punishing, and wrote it into the script.

 Montreal Film Journal
Once director Richard Lester and writer Alun Owen were hired, they were given a budget and then it was “See you at the premiere.” All this contributes to how unusual and refreshing “A Hard Day’s Night” turned out to be.
Owen’s screenplay is a breezy slice of silliness that pretty much has the Beatles playing themselves.
Owen followed them for a couple of weeks as they played gigs, did promotion and so on and he condensed what he observed into a narrative which follows the Fab Four during a day.

 ARMCHAIR THEATRE | A TELEVISION HEAVEN REVIEW
Newman's approach was to abandon established dramas and go for a gritty realism with a series of specially commissioned plays by young playwrights such as Harold Pinter, Robert Miller, Ray Rigby and Alun Owen.
The wealth of talent employed both in front and behind the cameras read like a who's who of the British entertainment industry as the weekly dramas reached the top ten ratings for 32 out of 37 weeks between 1959 and 1960, with audiences of 12 million viewers.
Pinter's first TV play during that period was A Night Out, and was followed that same year by Owen's Lena, O My Lena, which starred Billie Whitelaw and Peter McEnery in a terse story of a Liverpool student who falls in love with a factory worker.

 The DVD Journal | Quick Reviews: A Hard Day's Night: Collector's Series   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
However, with a carefree script by Alun Owen and the Fab Four only too happy to goof around in front of the camera, director Richard Lester came up with one of the best movies ever about rock-and-roll, be it fiction or documentary.
Working with just the barest thread of a plot, Owen's story simply follows John, Paul, George and Ringo as they journey by train from Liverpool to London, where they are expected to perform on a national television show.
And since so much of Western civilization's attention was given to the daily activities of the Fab Four, not a lot happens that didn't really go on at the time (some of the screaming fans in the film are extras — many are not).
