A very plausible explanation. Fascinating and as usual impeccably presented. 🥇

RIP Eva Marie Saint (1924-2026) at 102. Oscar winner for On the Waterfront (1954), co-star of North By Northwest (1959) and much more.

The penultimate one he did. But still plenty more to see that he recorded earlier.

The destination was poor but I thought the journey was very entertaining. For me it would have been better to end it with total ambiguity. We didn’t need an explanation - it’s a fun ride.

They didn’t make it onto Jane’s Desert Island Discs in 1988 but no doubt she’d revise that now (especially picking Bill Cosby). Neither did Macca but she did choose one by songwriter Bernard Webb.

I saw the live performance of this up on high in the Albert Hall which was the last time I saw Linda. I remember as we were very slowly making our way out if the auditorium some fans were singing “We love you Linda, oh yes we do” to the tune of this 1964 novelty disc: youtu.be/Hj3A3WcjBDE?...

6 year old me probably saw that. It was certainly my regular viewing on a Saturday teatime. Sundays it was probably Catweazle or H.R. Pufnstuf on ITV.

From a BFI Southbank exhibition in 2023: “one of many pairs” of red shoes worn in the film by Moira Shearer. Now in the personal collection of Martin Scorsese.

I was there and remember some young women sitting nearby who had come specifically because George was appearing. One of the staff told them that he would attend concerts there (The Albert Hall) and particularly liked Mahler. Another abiding memory was the lone woman throwing knickers at Tom Jones.

The story of Ray Ellington and David Ormsby-Gore reminded me that after being British ambassador to the US he (now as Lord Harlech) was the President of the BBFC (1965-85), based in Soho Square, near MPL, so his Harlech signature appeared on the certificate of all Goon & Beatles films in that era.

7 June 2021 when it was still Abercrombie and Fitch. I went to London to see a socially distanced play starting Gemma Arterton while Covid rumbled on. It was novel to get into London again and I was drawn back to this location before the show.

For some time after the clothes shop closed I’ve often walked over to take a look but the graffiti seems to have suddenly taken off after the announcement. Probably because it’s suddenly a Beatles site again.

Sat 26 Sep 2009 Walking Beatles London by chance when looking at the jeweller Asprey in New Bond Street (where a failed attempt is made to saw off Ringo’s cursed ring in the film Help!) we happened across this long long long scarf knitted by Australian fans in 1964. #thebeatles #asprey
