Alf Bicknell was the Beatles' chauffeur for three years. From 1964 to 1966.

You will NEVER see HELP! on British TV because of the “filthy Eastern people with filthy Eastern ways” comment by JOhn.

Are you sure this is Alf Bicknell in the picture? Could be Mal Evans instead ... although both had the same build, Mal was very often photographed with the Beatles whereas as far as I know, Alf was not.

The picture above is from the set of the "HELP!" movie, which Mal Evans appeared in as the 'swimmer' who pokes up thru a hole in the ice after it had been blown open by a bomb (disguised as a 'curling' pot), so it makes sense that it would be Mal in this picture.

BTW - I met and hung out with Alf Bicknell several years ago at a BeatleFest convention, and he was one of the nicest guys, just a regular person without pretense. RIP Alf (and Mal)
