2013-11-17: The story of Freda Kelly (by The Guardian)

... Beatles' secretary for around 10 years:
https://www.theguardian.com/music/2013/nov/17/beatles-secretary-freda-kelly-story

Citando:
""Paul, you could always rely on. He was the good one. George was very thoughtful – he would always say 'What have you got in your cupboard for me to sign?' Ritchie [Ringo, real name Richard] was always laughing. He was Mr Happy. John was a man of many moods. People think John Lennon was a big, hard man. He had his moments but there was a caring side to him."

By her own admission, Kelly was something of "an innocent" when she started working for the Beatles. "I was Miss Gullible. I was an Irish Catholic who went straight from the Girl Guides into the music business. I didn't know anything about anything."

It was Lennon who explained to her that her boss Epstein was gay – at the time, homosexuality was still illegal. "I remember saying to John: 'I can't make him out. There's something about him.' And he started laughing. He explained it to me in really simple terms. He said: 'Put it this way, if you and he were the last people on a desert island, you'd be safe.'""

E sobre o DVD:
"Good Ol' Freda will be shown on More4 on 10 December, 9pm. It is also available to buy on DVD from 4 December at amazon.co.uk"

2013-10-18: Lennon em DVD dos Straits

Was not looking for it but...

Estando a ver a reedição de 2010 do documentário do Alchemy (Dire Straits), gravado em 2 datas no mítico Hammersmith Odeon, o Mark Knopfler referiu-se ao John Lennon (sem grande certeza) que teria dito:

"We're the boys who won the pool (?) and met the Queen".

Alguém se lembra da quote concreta?
