The Beatles were a music group from Liverpool during the 1960s and 1970s.
Biographys
20th century
During the early 1960s, the Doctor and Donna Noble went to see them. A starstruck Donna had the band sign a CD which had songs on it which they had yet to record. (DWM: The Time of My Life)
In 1965, the Beatles performed "Ticket to Ride" at Riverside Studios. The Doctor, Barbara Wright, Ian Chesterton and Vicki observed the performance on the Time-Space Visualiser. (DW: The Chase)
In 1969, Ace prevented Huitzilin from killing the Beatles on the roof of the Apple building. (NA: The Left-Handed Hummingbird) Time distortion from the Rift Manipulator then transported them to the roof of the same building in the 21st century. (TW: End of Days) A year later, Paul left the Beatles. They acquired two new members, Billy and Klaus. (PDA: The Devil Goblins from Neptune)
- Although not explicitly identified as such, these were presumably Billy Preston and Klaus Voormann.
Mark David Chapman, manipulated by Huizilpin, shot ex-Beatle John Lennon outside his hotel on December 8, 1980. (NA: The Left-Handed Hummingbird)
21st century and after
In 2008, as a result of disturbances in time caused by inexpert use of the Rift Manipulator, the Beatles were spotted on the roof of Abbey Road studio. (TW: End of Days)
By the 25th century, a museum dedicated to them existed in their home town of Liverpool. Vicki knew of them but had not realized that they played what she referred to as considered classical music. (DW: The Chase)
References
- Paperback Writer (DW: The Evil of the Daleks) and Do You Want To Know a Secret? (DW: Rememberance of the Daleks) played in the background of cafés visited by the Doctor.
- The DJ on Necros had posters of several of the Beatles in his recording studio. (DW: Revelation of the Daleks)
Alternative timelines
Fitz Kreiner saw the Beatles perform at Live Aid in an alternative 1985 in which they never broke up in 1970. (Fitz collected alternate timeline Beatles records during his travels with the Doctor.) (EDA: The Gallifrey Chronicles)
Behind the Scenes
Appearance in The Chase
The Beatles were to have filmed a cameo for The Chase in which they played elderly versions of themselves, circa 1996. Their manager, Brian Epstein, however, forbade this.
Ironically, given the loss of many Doctor Who episodes to the BBC's policy of erasing old episodes, the clip of a live performance of the Beatles used in The Chase originated from a programme that was itself erased, leaving the Doctor Who clip the only known surviving footage of that performance.
Use of songs in Doctor Who stories
As mentioned above, The Evil of the Daleks and Remembrance of the Daleks originally had the Beatles songs "Paperback Writer" and "Do You Want to Know A Secret?", retrospectively, as background music. Rights issues, however, caused complications for the BBC. The audio release of the former story edited out the song, while the video release of Remembrance replaced with the original with a cover version. Since "Ticket to Ride" appears so prominently in The Chase, the appearance of the song in that story accounts in part for the delay in releasing that story onto DVD.
