About
On September 12, 1967, The Beatles stayed at a hotel in Newquay, while filming their “Magical Mystery Tour”. In the evening, musician Spencer Davis, who was on holiday with his family in a nearby location, came to visit The Beatles.
The Spencer Davis Group had just finished a tour and I was having a holiday, staying with my wife and daughters at the Tywarnhale pub in Perranporth, which was owned by the parents of our road, Alec Leslie. I knew the Beatles quite well, so when I heard that they were filming at the Atlantic Hotel in Newquay I called up and asked Mal Evans what was going on. Mal immediately invited me over, so the whole family got into the Mini and drove over there.
