The fact that we’re living in the timeline in which we can all watch a vid fresh from Paul McCartney’s phone of him kicking back, by a river, just after a J, just hits me as so beautiful I could weep laughs.

Dump Together? An angle The Beatles never thought of for the Abbey Road cover from a shop window in Bilbao, Spain.

The worst thing about the Beatles cartoon was the voices, and the script. So, yeah, keep them and re-do the visuals, the least worst thing about it... www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZ-S...

I know it's the job of every Guardian reviewer to be precisely as unqualified as they are incorrect about everything, but I'm so SICK of seeing Eric Idle publicity lionising the Rutles and NEVER Mentioning Neil Innes. Remember, Eric? Not famous enough? www.theguardian.com/stage/2025/s...

Only just heard 'Cups and Cakes': www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQBH...

It's no 'English Tea', but this is unequivocally the most ANY Beatle has EVER sent themselves up. Yep, more than Ringo and The Monkees flogging pizzas.

There's also a very funny bit in the BBC's This Cultural Life Eric Idle episode where the presenter mentions "The Rutles, who toured for many years" – as if that fact is anything but a thorn in Eric's side. I'd have loved to have seen his face at that moment. RIP Neil. www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...
