Video – Beatle Toons
 For some strange reason I’ve recently found myself watching a lot of clips and segments from the old Beatles cartoon series that ran on ABC back starting in 1965. A total of 39 episodes were made running over three seasons. The voices were provided by British character actors Lance Percival (Paul & Ringo) and Paul Frees (John & George) who for some strange reason didn’t bother to use Liverpool accents.
I only have very vague memories of this show, in fact I’m not even sure if it ran in the UK, even though it was produced in London, or I’m recalling it from later encounters over the years.
You can find lots of information on the series here, and the official site is here.
Anyway here’s a clip of the ‘toon Beatles helping out in a French vineyard while performing “I’m Down.”Â
