Track 16 - The Beatles

Made for 4 Extra. In 'Mitch Benn is the 37th Beatle', the musical satirist explores his comedy connections to the story of The Beatles.

For Track 16 we find out a little bit more about The Beatles themselves, especially the wax versions who appear on the cover.

First the comedian Mitch Benn explores his comedy connections to the story of The Beatles in 'Mitch Benn is the 37th Beatle', from 2014.

Then we visit the archives of Madame Tussaud's to meet their curatorial archivist Louise Baker. She tells us about Madame Tussaud's historic working relationship with Peter Blake, how they helped him with the Sgt. Pepper album cover, and what has happened to the figures now.
