The other Beatles didn’t like the third sideburn which he grew as a consequence from the fire, which killed his fashion sense.

Where did this third sideburn grow from on Ringo’s face?

Some people call moustaches sideburns, like Mr. Burns in that episode of The Simpsons where he hires people to play softball.

Why did Paul McCartney make Bart Simpson write “we’re not bigger than The Beatles” on the chalkboard during the chalkboard gag for the season 2 episode Dead Putting Society?

They were liberated from Ronald McDonald, who planned on killing them and selling them to people so they could eat them.

What brand of tea was Paul and Mal drinking when they decided to do this?

Help was originally named ‘Kilauea’, and the album was supposed to consist of Hawaiian themed songs with a ukulele. Also, the movie was supposed to take place by the volcano with the fab four trying to skydive into the volcano.

Who is on their knees begging ‘if you please’ to Mr. Moonlight, and why are they doing so?

The “Tell Me Why ” guy and the “One After 909 ” guy.  Begging on bended knee proved ineffective therein thus they sought alternate sources of knee bending for improved results.

Who was that mysterious voice counting on A Day In The Life and what exactly was he counting?

Bruce Willis, he was counting down so he could say Yippie ky yay motherf-er, but once he was done counting, all he could say is yippie ky yay before the loud final piano E chord came in and obscured the obscenity.

How did Bruce Willis sneak into Abbey Road studios and why did Mal Evans and George Harrison let him stay despite everyone else wanting him to go?

He was smuggled in inside of George’s (arms, legs) and John’s (head, torso) guitar cases. And Mal & George – indeed, everybody – let him stay because, come on, the guy could hardly walk.

Pete Best. Ringo was nice enough to not include in the song the fact that Pete was throwing rotten veggies at him each time he passed by.

Why did Paul feel that he had to ask *discretely* when he asked Rita when she was free to take tea?

He didn’t want be late so he could find his coat, grab his hat and make the bus seconds flat.

Did Rita accompany Paul on his bus journey? If so, where did they go to?

Out of tune.

 

1st WOMAN: Wave.

2nd WOMAN: I don’t like to

1st WOMAN: Go on wave.

2nd WOMAN: Shall I? They expect it don’t they?

1st WOMAN: Lovely lads and so natural, I mean adoration hasn’t gone to their heads one jot has it, you know what I mean? Success.

2nd WOMAN: They just so natural and still the same as they was before they was.

Why was the above piece of conversation from the Beatles second feature film, ‘Do We Really Have To Do This Again?’ the basis of protests in America, Japan, India, Wales, Hungary and the Cayman Islands and lead to massive protests on the Beatles 1966 ‘Smile, Insult, Collect The Cash, And Get The Hell Out Of There Immediately’ Tour?
