It was quietly pointed out to John and Paul the financial implications of being typecast as Gollum and Frodo. Or perhaps it was the laughing fit that overcame Tolkien when they rang him.

What other major franchises did the Beatles consider filming in order to fulfil their contract?

Traffic outside EMI studios. Lots of Beatles fans crossing the road. 

 

Is Apple ever going to release Let It Be on DVD?

Sure! but on LaserDisc first! … they are looking for the right codecs and stuff to transfer it from 16/whatever mm to the right format and, well, you know… they probably don’t know about google existance yet,  or so…

 

what did they have to whistle to save ringo from the infamous tiger in Help !?

Beatles songs. Lots of them. In fact, they whistled the entire Help ! album, which was a double-edged sword as not only did it save Ringo from the tiger, but it was also a great means of promotion for the album. American fans were a bit confused by it, though. 

 

In What You’re Doing , what was the addressee of the song doing?

Faith Meredith. She tried singing it to save her pet rooster, but unfortunately, it didn’t work, and the rooster was partaken of at the next meal.

George, his works were:

Jellybabies Yum Yum, a candy-based collection of short stories about George’s shocking diet in the early Beatles years. Warning: contains flatulence burping and candy-based violence.

It Goes Bwang, suspiciously confused poems about guitars and how the walls keep moving. Example:

Plink. Plinnnnnnk. Scrape. Ow my ears. Ommmmmmm.
Plink. Plinnnnnnk. Scrape. Ow my nose. Ommmmmmm.
Plink. Plinnnnnnk. Scrape. Ow my fingers. Ommmmmmm.
I think I can see my own brain

Got Anything Else?, a sarcastic novelette about two Piggies who never like songs about shoes and ding dongs. Spoiler: they all get squashed by a great big hammer-shaped thing that the hero, Gargle, “accidentally” drops from a great height.

There are about 50 references on the White Album to pudding. Which songs have the most?

As they didn’t know it was a holiday they didn’t do anything out of the ordinary. They just sat at home, drank tea, smoked– tobacco and otherwise– played their guitars, watched telly… ordinary things. 

 

What Pink Floyd song was co-authored by a Beatle, and which Beatle co-authored it?
