Paul. That’s the hidden truth about the “Paul-is-dead” myth; an alien abduction. They studied his brain and found it similar to J.S.Bach’s brain (they had taken samples of his brain too).

 

Which Beatle befriended Jimmy Dean before his untimely demise?

Sailing Across The Sea. Paul writing a 1920’s style track for the film which John famously got sued for in 1974 as it was claimed to be a rip of of Brian Dean’s 1943 track ‘My Baby Across The Ocean’ and Paul claimed to be dead so couldn’t be taken to court.

 

In 1969 George quit the Beatles after Yoko helped herself to one of his chocolate hobnobs and dunked it in her coffee . Shortly after he formed the Travelling Wilburys with seven bricklayers who had been working on building a wall to promote the Wonderwall album. Name the members of the Travelling Wilburys and, for a bonus point, their first single.

1. Revolution 9
2. Wire-tapping his girlfriend’s phone to keep tabs on her to see if she was spending time with another man (done without a warrant)
3. Lying to a court officer because he really did have something to hide and so did his monkey

The Beatles did many shows for the BBC. What do the letters BBC stand for?

All Beatles records were in the shape of an apple, except for Abbey Road which was shaped as an octagon, due to the song “Octagon’s Garden”

The Hindenburg –and he did it as he sang “Burn baby burn”.

Since Sean and Julian are twins, can we assume one of them is the evil one?

The Wizard of Oz’s henchmen.

 

In 1969 John released his first solo single all the while remaining a member of the Beatles. According to this iconic classic what should we give a chance?

There are three clones, all of which went horribly awry. As for the havoc, Xavier Lennon recorded ‘Lukewarm Turkey Loaf’, Manfred Lennon recorded ‘Whatever Gets You Laid’ and Anwar Lennon recorded ‘I Like Cheese’. None of the songs charted, casting a pall over John’s lineage and setting the science of cloning back by decades.

What Beatles song, written by Paul, was about an underwater craft that was the same color as a banana?
