I think my books (which I don't have with me at the moment, but if
memory serves...) say that the show was on 13 Oct 1963, hence the title
"Sunday Night at the London Palladium". That year the 13th fell on a
Sunday.
Barry Miles' "The Beatles: A Diary" happens to be on Google Books and it
corroborates the Oct 13 date. IMDB also cites the Oct 13 airdate:

Are you sure about your date, Edvado? Your research skills are
impeccable, so I'm confused by this.
