That video clip was great. I had never heard of such a show or that particular skit. When George allowed his sense of humor some room, it was great. Thanks much for posting the link, TSG. Beatles and pirates (and a little bit of Python to boot) - tremendous.
I got turned on to that video by the Rolling Stone article "10 Things You Didn't Know George Harrison Did" I was aware of the Rutland Weekend Television (check out the "Pommy" skit) I didn't know about George's guest appearance as a pirate...or that he was the first Beatle to meet a US President.

ReplyDeleteThat quiet Beatle sure could be quiet, huh? So, which president did he meet? Pretty sure Macca has. Wonder if Ringo has?
