Quoting:
"Ray Dagg is not a name associated with iconic cultural moments, but it ought to be. As a Metropolitan police constable he ended the Beatles’ final live performance, on a London roof.

Now he is the unlikely star of a new wave of Beatlemania, powered by the release of a documentary of the band working on Let It Be, their last studio album to be released."

Quoting:
"A native of London’s Chelsea neighborhood, Dagg has been inundated with Facebook friend requests and calls for interviews. An American Reddit member even painted him in watercolor, The Times reports.

His threat to arrest the band and their manager was a “bluff,” he told the outlet, adding he doesn’t regret his role in rock history.

“Well, at that time, I didn’t know that they would never play together again,” Dagg said. “At least there’s something on a film somewhere that will forever show that PC Ray Dagg shut down the Beatles."
