It was a landmark in hippy history - pioneering but a financially disastrous experiment in "designer" retailing set up by the Beatles. Newsnight is marking the Apple Boutique's 40th anniversary with a light projection on Baker Street. The programme has recreated the vast and controversial artwork that dominated the four-storey building in Baker Street, London. The light projection shows the original psychedelic mural. Newsnight, BBC Two at 10.30pm on Thursday, 31st July 2008.
