It isn't a video, it's a radio news report. The part of it that's the Brian interview is a re-use of a video interview that I've already seen on YouTube.
It's an interesting listen, though, as it gives a good idea about the 1964 context and how people saw the Beatles. They interview Maureen Cleave about Brian's relationship with the Beatles and that is something that I hadn't heard before.

Thank you Emily for telling us. I am glad you come by here. So part of it is on YouTube? If it is, it may already be posted somewhere around this forum. Hopefully, more interviews with Brian would be discovered and revealed so the public would learn more about this great man.

Definitely on YouTube... I'm certain that you've posted the link here already, in fact.
I have to say that I never find these interviews terribly revealing. One sees his public face but doesn't necessarily learn that much about the man behind it. I keep watching them, though!
