The Beatles would have Come Together for the greatest rock ’n’ roll reunion of all time… if it wasn’t for an 18ft Great White shark.

Sir Ringo Starr tells how a £50million deal – £200million in today’s money – was offered to the Fab Four in 1975. Drummer Ringo – who is 80 on Tuesday – says he and bandmates John Lennon, Sir Paul McCartney and George Harrison discussed the offer from showman Bill Sargent.

The producer – who planned a wrestling match between a man and the shark as the warm-up act – convinced the world the reunion was happening.

But he struggled to talk round the band. Ringo says: “We did talk one time. There was a crazy offer out there. “We called each other to see what we think.
