Paul McCartney gave Stephen Colbert a framed photo of the Beatles performing at the Ed Sullivan Theater—where the show takes place—as a gift. Colbert joked that Paul signed it saying: "To Stephen: You are better than the Beatles."

Stephen Colbert closed out the final episode of The Late Show with an emotional performance of “Hello, Goodbye” alongside Paul McCartney. Paul McCartney symbolically switched off the studio lights one last time to the Ed Sullivan Theater. 🥹🥺

A gear #FabFoolsFriday to all! I know Macca was on with Colbert last night, but he's everywhere at the moment anyway, so here's this week's Unbelievable Truth, with Holly Walsh's lying take on the Beatles story: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... #Beatles #Comedy #Rutles ✌🏾🎶🃏

Oh now I get it. Dubai is Golgafrinchan Ark B.

If you were born in the UK and you live in Dubai, you should die in Dubai. That's even if there's world peace.

It's #FabFoolsFriday! Here's one of the rare attempts to tell the Rutles story on YouTube. I can't remember if I've seen it, so it might be rubbish. Have lovely days. youtu.be/_sGBFuvYRgw?... #Beatles #Rutles✌🏾🎶🃏

I wish more people realised that if anyone has ever publicly admitted that they "don't like The Beatles" in pretty much any way, then you NEVER have to pay that 'person' any attention ever again, or even necessarily consider them to be human beings. That's just how it works.
