Untaxing - 2. The Beatles Clause


UNTAXING - 2. THE BEATLES CLAUSE (320kbs-m4a/32mb/14mins)

BBC Radio 4 broadcast: 1st April 2025

Harry Potter star, Rupert Grint, thought he'd found a way to cut his tax bill, until an obscure law tripped him up. That law? One created because of The Beatles.

But why were the Fab Four so desperate to avoid tax? And how did their money-saving scheme end with them losing control of their own music? A story of rock, rebellion, and the long arm of the taxman.

Producer: Tom Pooley
A Tempo+Talker production for BBC Radio 4
