In this two-part episode, Diana and Dr. Duncan Driver explore Cleave's profile on George Harrison. In part two they explore the second half of the interview which focuses on George's home, his home life with Pattie, and his thoughts on war, the old guard, and religion. As in part one, George is amusingly blunt, witty, and endearingly earnest.
These exceptional interviews, originally posted in the Evening Standard, provide rare intimate glimpses of the Beatles in 1966, sometimes countering the traditional view of them at this time.
Many thanks to the fabulous Dr. Duncan Driver! @drduncd
