70s BBC pictures - unidentified?

Since we've been discussing studio pictures, I have a few other pics here that remain unidentified.  They appear to be from a TV shoot, circa 74-75.  It has been said that Queen performed Now I'm Here on Top Of The Pops in early 1975.  Is that what these pictures are from?  Note that there's a drum kit of a band called "Hello" behind the stage..

Another, from the same video shoot..

And this is an entirely different video shoot.  Any idea where this one is from?

Nice pics, although I have no idea where they are from!

It's strange to see brian on the opposite side of the stage!

think the first one is from oct/nov 74 - Killer Queen promo. Not sure if it was for a european pop programme called "top Pops"

ibut the timeline matched the drumkit for the band HELLO - whon only had two hits - "tell him" and "new york groove"

tell him - nov 74
new york groove - oct 75

therefore it's nov 74 and killer queen promo

The last one is from BBC in 1975/1976 - that's what I think from the B in the box on the camera at the bottom right corner. Can this be from the famous Top Of The Pops performance of Now I"m Here which I read about but never found any evidence it exists ?

This has caused a problem for a long time now.

The first two pics are from 1974 but nobody seems to know where the photos were taken. Myself, Greg Brooks, Jim Jenkins and Ratty can't seem to decide where it is from. I thought it was an unseen 'Killer Queen'....but from where?
It's not the Dutch show 'Top Pop' as it is totally different.

The second is more than likely 'Now I'm Here', either from 'Top Of The Pops' or '45'......but both performances were erased by the TV companies involved. So unless these photos have been captioned and properly archived then a bit more detective work is needed.

Any more ideas?

yes. i'm sticking with my first idea re: Killer Queen and "HELLO - "Tell Him" - the time/dates fit correctly. as regards Top Pop you are right.On the old vhs of that (that i had)  freddie is wearing what looks like a fake fur jacket. also there are more coloured lighting
however, to muddy the waters further (sorry) - found this http://i.ytimg.com/vi/2ZBtPf7FOoM/0.jpg  from a Killer Queen promo - same studio but different clothing for all of the band...weird
and here's the link to the video - think it could be the dutch tv show top pop http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Ti2P_z5IPw
another different Killer Queen promo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uq4r8XPbTik

and as the original photo uses the same stage layout...maybe it is "now i'm here" on  top pop?

Yes, this version of 'Killer Queen' is from 'Top Of The Pops' and is on all the official Queen video releases.

I've always thought that "Now I'm Here" was taken from the Rainbow concert.
So, is it DEFINATE then that this WAS a proper Top Of The Pops appearance????

Yes. That's definitely a BBC colour camera!

Your first video is from 'Top Of The Pops'. Your second video is from 'Top Pop'.

Queen's 'Now I'm Here' appearances on 'Top Of The Pops': 

 "Also in January the band make another appearance on 'Top Of The Pops' to pre record a filmed performance of 'Now I'm Here' in the studio. This appearance would be shown on the programme on January 30th and repeated on February 13th. Since then it is still believed that this footage has been erased and forever lost".

Right, because the BBC kept taping over their stuff in the 70s, since most people didn't really care to preserve footage back then.  So nobody taped this off TV, because it just wasn't too popular a song (like Seven Seas Of Rhye the previous year) ??
