The washed-up, 50-year-old Lennon is played by Ian Hart. He has played the young singer twice before – in Backbeat and The Hours and Times. This new script, from a short story by Ian R MacLeod, gives the actor, who at 48 is eight years older than Lennon when he died, another chance.

Ringo and Paul, 70, have had a love-hate relationship since their Beatles days, with their last performance together coming in 2009.
In an interview back in 2011, Ringo said of his relationship with Paul: 'We are as close as we want to be.
'We’re the only two remaining Beatles, although he likes to think he’s the only one.'
But despite the fact that their friendship appears to be more love than hate at the moment, it looks unlikely that the pair will enjoy a musical reunion any time soon, as both Paul and Ringo currently have separate commitments.

Apparently he didn't find any "free love" or "free sex", did our good Georgie. However, let us not be too explicit about these things in journalistic records, just in case we go down in legal ones.
Anyhow, so he liked a bird?
