Can anybody confirm for certain that, apart from the brief clip of Ticket To Ride reused in Doctor Who, no video of The Beatles on Top Of The Pops is known to exist, either performances or camera rehearsals?

There is nothing known to exist, no. A list of their TOTP appearances will be found somewhere down the threads as I can recall posting the details in the past. There were several appearances made specifically for TOTP (most pre-taped) but only one actually in the studio for live transmission (16/6/66, which is thought to exist in a private collection).

That's what I thought. I'm off next weekend to view some footage which is potentially extremely exciting (n.b. not 16/6/1966). I'll make an announcement then if everything pans out as it should.

The details of Beatles appearances on Top of the Pops are also in Mark Lewisohn's book on the group, Paul. Anyway I expect you know this. I'm looking forward to finding out what your good bit of news is with the film footage though, Paul!

Didn't Apple discover a copy of Paperback Writer when researching 'Anthology' ? . I seem to remember them saying that they had been given a tape of the totp appearance but it was of very poor quality and was not able to be used in the project.

Did anything come of this?
Like Juke Box Jury & It's The Beatles it's hard to believe that nothing from TOTP apparently exists bar The Chase clip although of course we always view these things with hindsight.
