And finally… off the record
A rare early Beatles single has sold at auction for thousands of pounds.
The 1962 demo disc contains the band’s hits Love Me Do and PS I Love You.
The single is one of only 250 in the world.
The record failed to sell at yesterday’s auction after being estimated at between £7,000 and £9,000.
It failed to reach that threshold, but an undisclosed bid close to the lower reserve price was accepted after the auction, BBC News reports.
