The Beatles Championed To Appear On British Money

Legendary pop group THE Beatles could soon find themselves pictured on the British GBP20 note to honour their incredible achievements in the 1960s.

Calls for Sir Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and the late John Lennon and George Harrison to be the first 20th century faces to adorn the monetary paper have been made to the Bank Of England.

Liverpool Culture Company's PROFESSOR DRUMMOND BONE says the band "inspired a generation". A spokesman for the Bank Of England says the institution will "consider" the request.
