TL;DR
Documentary on the BBC iPlayer.
There is a documentary on the BBC iPlayer from July 1964 on the discovery of the ##\Omega^-##. It includes interviews with Gell-Mann, Ne'man, Feyman and Samios (from Brookhaven). It's available for over a year. If you have access to the BBC iPlayer it's definitely worth watching. Wonderful!

Thanks for sharing @PeroK

Is it available on any other platforms and does it have a title and episode number?

I found this description

https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p01zhsqn
That's it. It's on the BBC online archive at the moment. What happens if you follow the link? Does it tell you you need a TV licence?
 
I found it somewhere, Just Google it. If I can find the link again I'll share it.

It's not available out of GB :-((. I'd love to watch BBC science features, which are way better than almost anything they produce in the German TV, which I only know that some BBC features are also shown in German TV (of course synchronized in German).

Your computer needs to be off-shell, i.e., it need to take a virtual trip to GB.
