Meet the police officer who ended The Beatles' last show 

I think l there’s a movie about her from a few years ago

@@masoncc9535 That was a different person. You're thinking of Freda Kelly.

I think he's exaggerating... Thousands blocking the street?. Not according to the footage.

he wouldve been a hero if he had arrested yoko

@@thewkovacs316 Or bumped into her and knocked her off the roof.

True Karens

Thats True!!!... And they're all dead

No one complained the police seen the crowd,,

Agreed.

I think the ones who phoned to complain probably didnt even know it was the Beatles. If they did I suspect they may not have done 😀 but who knows.. I'd have loved every minute of that.

A Day In The Life

He played his role well

He actually helped Paul to write new lyrics on the fly for get back😁

Actually, he stopped the last Beatles concert. The world never got to hear all the songs that planned to play. He ended everything on a big negative vibe.

@@hikesystem7721 Yes, we are forever robbed of a sixth take of Get Back.

@Steve Rutherford, here here. So true. I have watched the Get Back trilogy….several times….and could not believe I had seen any interviews with the officers that made history that cold winter afternoon. 100 years from now, a 1000 years from now, we will all still be watching with amazement of what took place that day.

What a nice guy. it's great you can look back and recall fond memories of the day and thanks for letting the Beatles perform one more time...

Greatest show on earth

Yes, he made history! My best wishes for him! 😀👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Totally agree, Steve. Many greetings from a Beatles´ fan in Mexico City.

But if it wasn't for the police we would have had a longer set with some more great music

@@MrWoodhaven11421 That's fair. But sadly at the time, no one knew this would be their very last concert

@@MrWoodhaven11421 Really? It was cold outside and they wanted to get through it swiftly. Not even the Beatles are above the law.

@@MrWoodhaven11421 the Beatles intended for the police to eventually stop the concert

@@MrWoodhaven11421 Not likely they would have done much else if they'd have been given more time. They had already practised and selected the 'Let it be' songs that would work best as a rock line-up, and they had got the takes they needed. It's not likely they would have pulled out older material either, as the whole premise for the project was always intended to be brand new material, and they had already seemed to have discounted, (for purely practical reasons) performing the remaining songs they had for the album, (those on acoustic guitars or acoustic piano for example) They were happy enough to jam in the studio as they waited around or just to loosen up, but again I don't think at this stage, as it was so long since they'd played live together, that they would have risked doing anything unrehearsed. Apart from not being physically dragged away by the Police, it had also worked out just as Paul McCartney had hoped for, when the policemen arrive on the rooftop Paul looks over his shoulder and grins with delight, it gave them the ending they wanted. Also bear in mind this was in the UK wintertime on a breezy rooftop, they had probably all had enough and really glad to GET BACK into the warmth of the building.

LOL!

Actually, in the film , you can see the cars moving.

🤣🤣🤣

the so called "Beatles long term effect"

Hahaha

El haber estado en esos momentos cerca del área de su trabajo vigilancia cerca del concierto lo hizo famoso.

Amen

He was so young when he was born.

@@doublek321 his eyes could not yet see

Exactly!

@@doublek321George Harrison reference

@Luis Humberto Vega, I TOTALLY agree with every thing you said. WELL DONE!!

Nonsense. He admitted on this video he was only well behaved because he was being filmed.

British police are just different from American

@@strangebrew1231 AMERICA POLICE ARE THE WROST IN THE WORLD.

@@Asshole88lmao exactly, love to see what a 1960s Bobbies would have done if they weren't well aware they were on camera, and they weren't dealing with the rich and famous. Cracking skulls most likely lmao

I feel the same way! He's part of the grand story!

I too feel exactly like you do!

Yeah, I noticed that, too! 😀

I wonder what's the historic value of the original picture and he better sign that one now.

I mean he was a teenager, he was only 19 when it all happened.

It bothered me how much he suckled the strap

Hats Off To (Ray) Dagg - I believe Imma shake 'em on down!

You should have seen him climbing up the Eifel Tower!

I'm crying

Kickin Edgar Allan Poe

Its Mister City Pleaseman...😂😂😂

@@elchichosantana6410 well dang I was wrong too😂😂 I’ve been singing it wrong

who did the job his Sarge should have done but probably didn‘t had the guts for!

He probably thought at the time if he arrested the Beatles his life wouldn't be so kind for a long long time and was quietly hoping they would just comply so it would be over amicably.

He was in his 20s at the time

​@@strangebrew123119.

OH ME TOO!!! Surely that couldl be arranged!

OMG was he REALLY 19 then?! Because back then when I saw "Let It BE" in the theaters when it was released, THAT was the age I GUESSED him to be. I was 22 at the time.

Luckily this wasn't in the 1970s - when "one more" might've meant a 40-minute guitar jam.

That would've been hilarious if the Beatles said alright, one more song. Ok, here's a 30 minute medley of our hits. 😆

🙂

Yes that's right.

Beautifully said, Bill.

Yes he was really in a very unique and unusual position then.

Even back then you could only trust cops to behave when they're on camera. 😆

lol that event would've probably brought them back together

Pauls grandfather would try to save them :D

@@andyw.3048 he is very clean.

yeah!! that would be awesome

Up on that very roof of course,...that would be a magical reunion.

He could finally arrest them after all these years. "You're nicked McCartney!"

@@gwangi64 The Japanese beat him to it already.

You're absolutely right. Interesting questions to be asked.

As far as I know, these cops might not have been true Beatles fans, but they weren't fundamentally averse to music of the Beatles either. I mean, I read that in some book a long time ago.

@@braudabo I recently read he said he was more into Simon & Garfunkel. :')

@Deecky RIzzo, You just voiced the questions I had WISHED they had asked him!!!

That's what I thought too

you still dont. 52 years later his memory is cloudy... freeze frame 3:17

@@googoo-gjoob I believe him when he says blocking the traffic on road below Apple Studios was overflowing and blocking the roads around it. Go look at map of London and Apple is in a prime location in London.
