Ringo’s little star!

Paul’s stepdaughter, 6, shows him how to keep the beat in intimate new footage

By Eleanor Sharples TV and Radio Correspondent

IT was the day Ringo Starr got by with help from a little friend – Paul McCartney’s stepdaughter Heather.

The six-year-old gleefully picked up the drumsticks as The Beatles practised in the studio in January 1969.

Footage of the moment appears in a four-minute trailer for the six-hour documentary Get Back, compiled from footage locked away in a vault for more than half a century.

Heather, daughter of McCartney’s bride-to-be Linda, is also seen singing with John Lennon. The three-part documentary uses material shot for the 1970 film Let It Be and includes The Beatles’ final live performance together – the rooftop concert at their Apple HQ in Savile Row, London.

It will be shown on Disney+ across three days next month.
