The Beatles' rooftop performance arrest 'was a bluff' - 'I should have resigned'

Sunday, January 22, 2023

On January 30, 1969, The Beatles played together for the final time on the rooftop of their company's building, Apple HQ, in London, UK. The performance was filmed by their documentarians, led by Michael Lindsay-Hogg, who was filming the Let It Be movie to coincide with the release of their final album of the same name. Although they were threatened when they started playing, the police officer who was there that day has now laid down the truth.

PC Ray Dagg was just 19-years-old when he attempted to stop The Beatles' performance on the building's rooftop. At the time, a number of noise complaints had been submitted, potentially ruining their final public gig.

Footage of the gig showed a few police officers - including Dagg - threatening to arrest the band. However, the man himself has now claimed his words were nothing more than empty threats.
