This would have been cool to attend, but I was distracted by the ad for the opening of the Beatles Story. I hadn't realised it opened in 1984. I was given the impression by the people I've talked with in Liverpool who are involved with the Beatles tourism association that in the 80s, Liverpool was oblivious to caretaking its Beatles heritage. It seems not so much.

It was in the 80s that the Beatles industry took off in Liverpool. Basically, after Lennon was killed. The comment was absolutely true of 1970s Liverpool though.

P6 of the 1984 programme is quite edgy!
