Danny Boyle's 'Yesterday' Imagines A World Without The Beatles, But Does It Work?

Can you imagine a world without The Beatles? That's what happens in Danny Boyle's new film Yesterday, which stars former EastEnders actor Himesh Patel as Jack, a struggling musician who wakes up after a blackout to find that he is the only person left who remembers The Beatles and their music. He uses this to his advantage, passing their songs off as his own compositions and finding the fame that had previously eluded him. But does the film work? Dee Molumby and Gordon Hayden joined us for our weekly movies slot to give their take. They also reviewed Metal Heart and previewed Spider-Man: Far From Home.
