  • Damn that Paul McCartney! Always getting the best of the bunch! Where did Ringo's go?

  • Yeah, almost 100% positive this is The Vernons Girls. Check out the picture sleeve of number 22 on this page: http://rateyourmusic.com/list/nosialmenara/my_favourite_brit_girls_of_the_60s

    Also note that their name is The Vernons Girls, not The Vernon Girls.

    A google image search with Vernons Girls turns up some other images too that seem to verify it.

    Thanks for all the pics!

  • I'd think this is in a BBC building. The font used in the top right on the STUDIO sign is the one the Beeb use.

  • Yes, they're The Vernons Girls, who at this time were Frances Lea, Jean Owen and Maureen Kennedy. Liverpool girls.
    Photo taken at Teddington TV studio, Sunday April 14 1963. They were there to record Thank Your Lucky Stars (for broadcast the following Saturday, April 20).
    After this recording, the Beatles went to see the Rolling Stones play at the Crawdaddy in nearby Richmond, meeting them for the first time.

  • Don't feel TOO bad for Ringo. He's had Barbara Bach to sit on his lap since 1980!
