'She Loves You' had been in the charts since August and 'I Want to Hold Your Hand' was about to be released with advance sales of a million. The London Palladium had been besieged by hysterical fans when the band played there in October; and they had just returned from five days in Sweden, their first overseas tour since their Hamburg days. ‘A few days later the boys appeared in the Royal Variety Performance, the biggest show of the year. The Queen Mother, Princess Margaret and Lord Snowdon were in the royal box. That was the evening when John famously said, “The ones in the cheap seats clap their hands, the rest of you just rattle your jewellery”. The joke was on every front page the next day and confirmed the Beatles’ image as a group of cheeky but lovable lads’ (John, by Cynthia Lennon (2005).
