Transcript

00:00I've been a secretary for half a century.

00:11It's not as exciting as my last job.

00:22The Beatles needed a secretary.

00:24I just couldn't believe that I was starting my dream job,

00:27working for the Beatles.

00:29The Beatles were together for ten years.

00:31Frida, she was there right before they made it

00:34and right after they finished.

00:35On behalf of us all, I'd just like to say a great big thank you

00:38to our secretary, Frida Kelly.

00:42Silly me, I gave out my home address as the fan club address

00:45and the van rolled up.

00:48I was very naive.

00:54Once I joined the Beatles organisation,

00:56I grew up overnight in more ways than one.

00:59I was out with Paul walking somewhere.

01:01Somebody saw us and then it was, you know, I was marrying Paul.

01:05They got a quote, Paul McCarney is not marrying Frida Kelly.

01:10Somebody sent a pillowcase in and said,

01:12can you get Richie to sleep on it?

01:14I remember saying to his mum, can you make sure he sleeps on it?

01:18Frida was far more than a secretary to the Beatles.

01:22She was a family member.

01:26It was all fun when we were teenagers, but your life changes.

01:29Obviously, we can't keep playing the same sort of music.

01:33It wasn't what the Beatles were doing as a group anymore.

01:36It was what they were doing individually.

01:38Is the atmosphere today anything like it was ten years ago?

01:40No, no.

01:41What's missing?

01:43The closeness.

01:47This story of Frida Kelly's will be one of the last true stories

01:50of the Beatles that you'll ever really hear.

01:53I don't know why they picked me.

01:55Maybe it was just fate.

01:56I was taken along for this ten-year exciting ride.

02:06I was, and still, a Beatle fan.

02:15Did you go out with any of them?

02:17Pass.

02:19There are stories there?

02:20Oh, there is stories, but I don't want anybody's hair falling out.
