Help! I'm a Beatles hater...

James Bond apparently hated The Beatles.

In Goldfinger, he advises Jill Masterson that "drinking Dom Perignon '53 above the temperature of 38 degrees" is "as bad as listening to The Beatles without earmuffs".

The Bond girl's own verdict on the Fab Four, unfortunately, is not recorded before her untimely demise on the inside of a coating of gold paint.

That was 1964, when 007 may have felt threatened by that year's global success of The Beatles' first movie, A Hard Day's Night. More...
