Surprised myself with eight out of fifteen. Regarding the first two questions, if his given first name at birth was James, it probably still is...and I CANNOT believe that His Lordship is going to be (or already is) eighty-one this year! At the risk of sounding a bit cheeky, m'lord, good on ya, mate!

Here's another one, In the early 70's, Paul was advertised as being a musical guest on this Variety Show, but in actuality they showed a music video. What was the name of the show?

Due to Ringo being away on a film shoot that day, I believe it was Old Brown Shoe. My all-time favorite George song!
