- Trivia John Lennon told Paul McCartney about a dream he had where he used a shovel to serve spaghetti to a woman. Paul suggested they film that, and John agreed.
- Goofs Some shots of the bus driving along country lanes were obviously shot at a later date, when the bus was empty. In The Beatles "Anthology" book, Neil Aspinall describes taking the bus back out on the road after filming had finished, to shoot some external links which had been forgotten.
Mrs. Starkey, Ringo's Auntie : Now shut up!
Richard Starkey : Shut up- to me? I've had enough of it! I can't stand it any more! I'm gettin' off! Off!
Mrs. Starkey, Ringo's Auntie : Don't get historical!
- Crazy credits Made in England by The Beatles

Magical Mystery Tour
Released 26th December 1968
"We said to everyone: 'Be on the coach on Monday morning.' I told them all, 'We're going to make it up as we go along, but don't worry - it'll be all right.'" Paul
"It was good. We would get off the bus: 'Let's stop here,' and go and do this and that. Go on the beach, draw a heart, dance. Then we'd put the music to it. It took two weeks to film and a long time to edit." Ringo
"In the time that had elapsed since A Hard Day's Night and Help! - although it was probably only two years - it was as if we'd gone through five hundred years mentally. We didn't see any way of making a similar film of four jolly lads nipping around singing catchy little tunes. It had to be something that had more meaning." George
"They thought we were stepping out of our roles. They'd like just to keep us in cardboard suits that were designed for us. Whatever image they have for themselves, they're disappointed if we don't fulfil it. And we never do, so there's always a lot of disappointment." John
Away in the sky, beyond the clouds, live 4 or 5 Magicians. By casting wonderful spells they turn the Most Ordinary Coach Trip into a Magical Mystery Tour. If you let yourself go, the Magicians will take you away to marvellous places. Maybe you've been on a Magical Mystery Tour without even realising it. Are you ready to go?
The Beatles produced this film around a coach journey across England. It features a series of musical vignettes, interspersed with scenes of comedy and fantasy. It includes tracks such as Magical Mystery Tour, The Fool On the Hill, Your Mother Should Know, and I Am The Walrus.
" Having been involved in feature films such as A Hard Day’s Night and Help! The Beatles wanted to make a film that was in keeping with the spirit of the times. So in the summer of 1967 we came up with a scenario that would keep the project extremely freewheeling.
At the time Richard Lester, the director of our first two films, was quoted in Rolling Stone as saying “ They should make their next film themselves, just the way they make an album. I mean that it should grow organically rather than having the professional cult of film making superimposed upon it. ”
I took over most of the responsibility of pulling this together. We remembered mystery tours from when we were growing up in Liverpool which would take people on a bus trip without them knowing the ultimate destination. So that’s what we did. We wrote a basic story outline starting with a hand drawn pie-chart, recorded some songs, engaged some likely looking actors and along with a few friends set off in our brightly coloured bus heading towards the south west coast of England.
Most of the dialogue was improvised and would involve us talking to the actors, deciding a basic idea for a scene and filming it right away. None of us knew our destination, as in the mystery tours of our childhood, but we had a very enjoyable few days and then returned to London to sort out all the footage we had shot.
It turned out to be a wacky, impromptu romp that puzzled a few people at the time but as the years have gone by it now stands as a fond reminder of that period in our lives."
Paul McCartney, August 2012.

The Beatles, ‘Magical Mystery Tour’ – Film Review
Going into the last quarter of 1967, the Beatles couldn’t get any bigger. Their masterwork, ‘ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band ,’ pretty much changed the way pop music was made, sounded and consumed. They had transcended the rock ‘n’ roll ghetto, entering the final phase of a career that glided past pop music’s boundaries and into a wide-open realm of exploration and experimentation.
They were on top of the world, and nobody wanted, or could, tell them no. Which is how and why their third movie, ‘Magical Mystery Tour,’ came to be over two weeks in September of 1967. Conceived as a daylong travelogue, in which the Fab Four accompany a busload of family and friends to the sea, the 53-minute film was a kaleidoscopic-colored, and mostly improvised, trip into the overeager egos of the Beatles.
Each member gets his spotlight: John Lennon romping on the hillside during a musical interlude featuring ‘I Am the Walrus’; Paul McCartney (the driving force behind the project) ruminating on ‘The Fool on the Hill; George Harrison tripping out to ‘Blue Jay Way’; and Ringo Starr bickering with his aunt (played by an actress) for the duration of the tour.
But most of the movie is filled out by that tedious bus ride. Just to show you how desperate the filmmakers were for material, somebody plays an accordion and everyone else sings along. There's also bizarre sketches featuring the quartet dressed as magicians and a dreamlike love-story vignette that doesn’t include any of the Beatles.
‘Magical Mystery Tour’ originally aired on British television on Dec. 26, 1967, and bombed, proving that the Beatles were fallible after all. It’s easy to see why: The movie is a mess – incoherent, unfunny and an example of ego and authority running rampant and unchecked. It only comes to life during the musical numbers, especially the great ‘I Am the Walrus’ sequence, a music video before there was such a thing.
The restored DVD and Blu-ray includes a stellar soundtrack remix, ensuring that the movie’s watchable moments sound terrific. Extras include interviews with McCartney, Starr and some of the cast and crew, as well as commentary by McCartney, who readily admits that ‘Magical Mystery Tour’ isn’t one of the Beatles’ best moments. We couldn’t agree more.

The Meaning Behind “Magical Mystery Tour” by The Beatles and the Subtext Running Just Beneath the Surface
by Jim Beviglia February 27, 2024, 8:00 am
Four individual movies about the four Beatles due in 2027? Sounds like a fascinating project, just like the one the Fab Four embarked on when they made the film Magical Mystery Tour in 1967. Although the film served as fodder for critics, the title track delivered a jolt of psychedelic energy and still stands as one of The Beatles ‘ most strikingly original singles.
Videos by American Songwriter
What does this song mean? What exactly is a “Magical Mystery Tour”? And why was the film that contained it one of the few artistic endeavors by The Beatles met with less than universal acclaim? Let’s take a look at the origin and meaning of this classic.
“Tour” of Duty
It’s a common misconception that The Beatles made the Magical Mystery Tour film because they insisted on pressing on with some project following the death of their manager Brian Epstein . In truth, the “Magical Mystery Tour” song sessions took place months before Epstein’s death in September 1967, and filming for the movie was already underway when he died.
In any case, Paul McCartney did indeed push for the band to continue a busy pace in 1967, perhaps to stave off the lethargy that might have accompanied their lack of touring. Hence, the sessions for “Magical Mystery Tour” took place just days after the group had put a bow on Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band . McCartney explained in the Barry Miles’ book Paul McCartney: Many Years From Now what inspired the song:
“John and I remembered mystery tours, and we always thought this was a fascinating idea: getting on a bus and not knowing where you were going. Rather romantic and slightly surreal! All these old dears with the blue rinses going off to mysterious places. Generally there’s a crate of ale in the boot of the coach and you sing lots of songs. It’s a charabanc trip. So we took that idea and used it as a basis for a song and the film.”
John Lennon and McCartney wrote the song from that basic idea. The recording manages to sound both refreshingly old-fashioned, thanks to the bright, shiny brass, and eerily forward-looking, courtesy of the somewhat unsettling coda. It was yet another example of The Beatles’ ability to meld different music styles, all while keeping things undeniably catchy. The group released the song as a single in the United Kingdom to precede the film’s release, and it went to No. 2 in the British charts.
As for the film, The Beatles created a surreal pastiche that felt less like a coherent film and more like a collection of skits. Its avant-garde silliness isn’t all that unlike what Monty Python would do in the coming years. But at the time, viewers and critics were baffled. The Fab Four had to endure some of the first negative reviews of their career. The music, which included beauties like the title track, “The Fool on the Hill,” and “I Am the Walrus,” proved that they were certainly on top of their game in that department.
The Meaning of “Magical Mystery Tour”
Taken at face value, “Magical Mystery Tour” does indeed refer to a bus trip. But there’s a subtext running just below the surface that isn’t too hard to realize. The year 1967, when the song was released, stood out as a time in history when drug experimentation was running rampant through the culture. The Beatles had already used a few of their songs to promote psychedelia, including when they sang, I’d love to turn you on at the end of “A Day in the Life” to close out Sgt. Pepper’s .
That idea seems to be working its way through “Magical Mystery Tour.” McCartney, who sings the lead vocal, takes on the role of a barker trying to get crowds of people to join the traveling circus: Roll up for the magical mystery tour / Step right this way . You can certainly take it literally if you wish. But the idea of a mystery trip that’s going to take you away certainly could refer to tripping on acid or some other recreational drug.
Perhaps that’s why the movie failed. It attempted to put definitive visuals on a mind-altering journey. But it couldn’t quite capture the flights of fancy conjured by the song “Magical Mystery Tour,” which gives you the perfect soundtrack for the movie in your mind.

Take a mystery lover's holiday by solving crime on the Italian Riviera in On Your Tail
Poirot can't take a day off without stumbling into a mystery, and apparently neither can the protagonist of On Your Tail.
I'm used to mystery games where the mystery is the main thing. In Strange Horticulture you may be running a shop while trying to figure out what's going on in Undermere, but you don't have to balance the books between trying to figure out how a druid got poisoned. You're not going to suddenly get a game over because a national chain of weird plant shops opened up a franchise across the road from yours.
On Your Tail is something different. It's a mystery game where you're investigating a theft in a seaside town, but it's also about having a nice Italian holiday. The demo begins by letting you choose whether you want to go straight to the crime scene or meet with a local photographer who can show you the town and introduce some locals. Since you can bring any friends you've made with you on investigation, the latter seems like a better option.
Paun the photographer—who is also a fox or maybe a dog, as all the characters in On Your Tail are anthropomorphic animals—acts as tour guide, showing off the town of Borgo Marina and a couple of relaxing minigames: fishing and stone-skipping. The trailer shown during the Wholesome Direct showcase suggests more activities, like cooking, stargazing, and bocce, will be part of the full game. You can also pick spots to relax with your current walking companion, whether a beachfront coffee stand or just a bench, and talk about topics represented by cards you collect—each a location or character you've encountered so far.
This is the holiday chillout side of On Your Tail, which developer Memorable Games calls a life sim, though based on the demo it seems less sim-y than I expected. There are no bars to fill to keep your needs up, though there's a suggestion of NPCs having affection ratings and maybe the possibility of romance? We'll see.
To experience the investigation side of On Your Tail, I visit a restaurant that's been robbed and examine it using a magical pocketwatch. The sudden appearance of a tool that can let you see into the past comes out of nowhere and seems like an odd addition to an otherwise quite grounded game. The pocketwatch lets you see which objects have been displaced, like a simpler version of Return of the Obra Dinn, each of which becomes a clue card. When I've collected all the clues the viewpoint switches to a papercraft recreation of the scene where I play the cards in order to recreate the sequence of events. It's got a cute board game vibe, and while this first puzzle is easy I imagine they'll ramp up in difficulty as it goes on.
That's pretty much all there is to the demo, but it's an intriguing idea. I can't help but wonder what a full life sim crime game would be like, having to balance an investigation with a need to eat and sleep and hold down a job or run your farm or whatever, but On Your Tail seems like it's aiming to be more of an Italian holiday recreation than anything else. Sort of like La Dolce Vita, but with a nicer photographer. It's scheduled for release in 2024, and you can play the demo on Steam .

"Am I really the oldest? I didn't know I was the oldest," Van Dyke exclusively told ET ahead of the night's festivities. "I'll be darn. I think I'm the last of my generation, really. I'm 98. I have almost all my marbles. I can't remember what I had for breakfast."
The night also belonged to General Hospital , which hauled in the most awards with four Daytime Emmys for Best Directing, Best Writing, Best Support Performance and Best Drama Series.
The ceremony -- held at Los Angeles' Westin Bonaventure Hotel on June 7 -- was hosted by ET's own Kevin Frazier and Nischelle Turner, marking the third year in a row that the co-hosts have helmed the star-studded ceremony.
A 2023 Daytime Emmy winner , Entertainment Tonight made a bit of history as well after bringing home the first-ever Outstanding Daytime Personality Emmy. ET also won in the Outstanding Entertainment News Series category for the fifth straight year and ninth overall.

McCartney warmly recalls the chaotic spirit of fun that characterized the film's making. He frequently laughs at the absurdity of it all, while fondly remembering the band's desire to disregard most conventions of filmmaking. Much of Magical Mystery Tour was shot not at a film studio, but at an RAF airfield and hangar!

Magical Mystery Tour. Magical Mystery Tour was the Beatles' third major film. Unlike the previous two, it was a television film and not a feature film, with a running time of less than an hour.

The one thing I haven't yet mentioned about "Magical Mystery Tour" is perhaps the most important thing of all - the music. The six new Beatles' tracks featured in the film that formed the "Magical Mystery Tour" double EP are all wonderful and the film serves as a means of providing six little "music videos" for each of them.
