Almost exactly 5 years ago I was lucky enough to see Paul and Ringo perform together onstage. And tonight I was privileged to see it a second time at the O2 in London. Even from waaay up in the rafters, just wow.

Listen to @drhollytessler from our Department of Music discuss the Beatles tourist offer in South Liverpool with @chamiltonbbc this morning. Listen again here 👉 https://t.co/n1EBHEeBpx (52 mins into the programme)
Underwhelming or magical? We’ve been talking about maximising the tourist offer on Penny Lane & the south Liverpool suburbs today. What do you reckon? Could the experience be better for visitors? #beatles More @bbcmerseyside
