The film gives the impression that Queen were unhappy at having to mime along to their song on the BBC TV show 'Top Of The Pops,' presumably with their first appearance when promoting 'Seven seas of Rhye' in February 1974. Whilst this may have been true, the band did appear in person on the show several times in the years afterwards to promote their singles with a mimed performance. This was usually done when EMI released a single but there was no promotional video available to go with it, or at least it was not available at the time of transmission. The last time they did this was in 1982 with the minor hit 'Las Palabras De Amor' and their appearance, which was recorded after the audience had left, ended up becoming the official Queen video for that song. NB: As was standard policy with the BBC in the 1970s, some of these shows were wiped and the expensive videotape was reused for recording other shows; therefore, not all these earlier performances survive.
