Behind the scenes

 * An early 1960s photo shows John Lennon posing next to a Dalek.
 * The novel PDA: The Devil Goblins from Neptune suggests the Beatles continued as a group after 1970, with Paul McCartney leaving the group and two new members replacing him.
 * Originally, The Chase was going to feature The Beatles playing themselves as old men in the late 20th Century. However, the idea was quickly denied by the band's manager, Brian Epstein. Had the idea come to fruition, it, sadly, would have become anachronistic upon Lennon's murder in 1980.
