While researching the Scarborough pics, this one came up as being taken in The Futurist Theatre, Scarborough, 9th August 1964 too - can anyone confirm that? It looks like they’re wearing the same clothing, but this is such a well known photo of the boys, I can’t believe I didn’t know it was taken in Scarborough! (My home town)

Beatle fans turn out on Scarborough seafront to catch a glimpse of the Beatles at The Futurist Theatre on the foreshore road, Scarborough, North Yorkshire on 9th August 1964. 

I have a personal interest in these photos as Scarborough is my home town, and although he didn’t live here at the time, somewhere in these crowds on the foreshore is my dad, aged 19. The grey expanse at the top of the last photo is the sea. The crowds went right down to the tideline.
