RINGO STARR: “SO NOW I SAY, PEACE AND LOVE AND BROCCOLI”

Ringo Starr has disclosed his approach to longevity and his ability to maintain a global touring schedule at age 85, citing a very basic philosophy... it's very simple.

Ringo has revealed the secret to still rocking at 85-years-old and it's just broccoli. He reckons the green vegetable is behind his boundless energy as he continues to record and tour well into his eighties.

In a new interview with Rolling Stone Ringo was asked how he stays so incredibly active at his age and he simply shared: "Well, you’ve got to eat more broccoli!"

Before quickly adding: "All the good things about me, I blame broccoli for.” Ringo even joked that he’s updated his iconic catchphrase 'peace and love' laughing, “So now I say, peace and love and broccoli.”

The comments come after Ringo shocked fans last year by admitting that he’s never tried a curry or a pizza before due to living with allergies. “I’ve never had pizza”, he said. “I’m allergic to several items… With pizza, you don’t know what you’re putting in it half the time.”

Clearly still feeling fab, Ringo also stays clear of any products made from a cow too as he claims “the molecules are so big” but will is a big fan of goat's cheese. He previously said: "I don’t eat anything from the cow because the molecules are so big... that’s why you can drink a glass of milk, you’re full". Whereas he insisted that "with a goat, it’s a good size for our bodies".

Later this month - 24 April - Ringo will release his new album Long Long Road

SOLD OUT: BRITISH LIBRARY EVENT - THE BEATLES AT STOWE SCHOOL

On Saturday, April 4, 2026, the Pigott Theatre at the British Library in London will host a unique gathering from 2:30 pm to 5:00 pm, featuring an exclusive listening session and a panel discussion. Tickets are priced at £20, with doors opening at 2:00 pm.

(Update: This event is now Sold Out.)

The date marks a significant anniversary. On April 4, 1963, The Beatles performed a one-off concert at Stowe School in Buckinghamshire after a persistent student convinced them to book the gig. In the audience that day was 17-year-old John Bloomfield, armed with his brand-new reel-to-reel tape recorder.

His efforts captured the earliest known full-length recording of the band playing live in the UK, caught right at the precipice of their global superstardom. The tape features a 22-song setlist, blending tracks from their debut album Please Please Me with their favorite R&B covers, interspersed with candid banter with the crowd.

This special afternoon centers on a playback of that historic recording, which is now preserved within the British Library’s sound archive.

The Panel:

John Bloomfield will join broadcaster and author Samira Ahmed to recount the story of that day and how he captured the audio.

They will be joined by official photographer David Magnus, who was there to document the performance visually.

Renowned Beatles historian Mark Lewisohn will provide expert insight, framing the concert within the band's meteoric rise to fame.

MADAME TUSSAUDS: IMMORTALIZING THE BEATLES

For over 200 years, London’s iconic Madame Tussauds and its global locations have showcased lifelike tributes to history’s biggest icons and pop culture legends.

Madame Tussaud's has been a staple of London tourism since its debut in the 1830s—a decade often cited as the birth of the city's travel industry.

The Beatles actually made history there on March 28, 1964, when they became the very first pop group to be cast in wax.

Those same figures eventually played a starring role in music history nearly three years later, when they were borrowed to appear on the legendary cover of the Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album.

Fueled by its initial commercial triumphs, Madame Tussaud’s quickly evolved into a household name, leading the way in creative marketing techniques during the early days of the advertising world.

Managed by Merlin Entertainments, a UK-based leisure group, the museum has expanded globally to four continents, starting with its first international site in Amsterdam in 1970.

BRIAN EPSTEIN APPOINTS DEREK TAYLOR TO GHOSTWRITE "A CELLARFUL OF NOISE"

In March 1964, The Beatles' mastermind, Brian Epstein, summoned Derek Taylor to the NEMS headquarters in Liverpool. At the time, Taylor was a Manchester-based reporter for the Daily Express, though his roots were in Merseyside. His fascination with the Fab Four had been sparked a year earlier after witnessing one of their live performances, and he had since earned a reputation as a journalist the band could trust.

Brian Epstein was looking to produce his memoirs—eventually titled A Cellarful of Noise—but he had no intention of writing them himself. He initially approached Taylor simply to ask for recommendations for a suitable ghostwriter.

During their meeting, after discussing the group’s future projects, Brian turned the conversation toward his own life story. Taylor was internally struck by the irony: "An autobiography? He's not even thirty yet!" He suggested Raymond Foxall, a writer known for historical romances, but Brian dismissed the idea immediately. He insisted on someone "modern," someone with whom he shared a rapport and who truly understood the Beatles' world.

Sensing a golden opportunity, Taylor seized the moment. "I’ll do it if you'll have me," he offered, his voice slightly wavering.

Despite his packed schedule, Taylor’s inner optimist—his "Dr. Pangloss"—blinded him to the stress of taking on more work.

Taylor later traveled to London to coordinate with the ambitious publisher Ernest Hecht.

Using Matt Busby’s biography as a template for the book's structure, Taylor officially became Epstein’s ghostwriter.

He harbored no literary pretensions about the project, viewing it simply as "journalism in a sturdy binding."

To complete the manuscript, Taylor took a hiatus from the Express.

In April 1964, he and Epstein spent five days sequestered at the Imperial Hotel in Torquay, where Taylor meticulously recorded Brian’s recollections.

It was during these sessions that Epstein made a life-changing proposal: he invited Taylor to move to London as his personal assistant at NEMS, offering a weekly salary of £70.

Taylor didn't hesitate. He resigned from the Daily Express on April 17, 1964, and stepped into his new role within the Beatles' inner circle just forty-eight hours later.
