Such a close thing

SIR Paul McCartney is only one of two surviving members of the legendary Beatles. While in London recreating the iconic image where he and his bandmates walk on the Abbey Road zebra crossing, he was almost run over by an Uber.

At the time of the incident, Macca was filming a documentary about the famous Abbey Road recording studios, which is broadcast on the Disney+ platform.

In a video posted on the official Twitter profile of Abbey Road Studios on Wednesday, January 25, Sir Paul is seen pausing to pose mid­crossing. As he stops, a blue­coloured car makes no attempt to respect the law of the road and drives straight through the zebra crossing just behind him.

Aviation Authority’s Consumer Director said: “It is always sad to see an airline enter administration and we know that Flybe’s decision to stop trading will be distressing for all of its employees and customers.”

IN a three ­ part documentary broadcast on BBC2 on Sunday, January 29, former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson claimed that Vladimir Putin threatened to kill him.

This bizarre incident occurred during a telephone conversation with the Russian President on February

The crossing is located outside the famous recording studios of the same name, where the Beatles recorded so many of their classic tunes. Their 1969 album Abbey Road features one of the most memorable and famous record cover designs of all time. It shows the Fab Four crossing the London road in a single file.

Now a sprightly 80 years old, the famous singer­songwriter was not even shaken by the incident.
