BBC Radio 2 airs Beatles Let it Be documentary

You can hear it, today only, here.

To mark the 40th anniversary of the release of Let It Be, and the accompanying Academy Award-winning film (both released in May 1970), Guy Garvey tells the story of the fractious and often bitter sessions that documented the demise of The Beatles.

Featuring contributions from many of those who worked on the Let It Be sessions, including director Michael Lindsay-Hogg, engineer Alan Parsons, photographer Ethan Russell, author Richard DiLello and engineers Dave Harries and Brian Gibson, this programme explains how a project (originally a TV documentary, titled Get Back, which was designed to re-energise the band and capture their stripped down rock'n'roll roots), instead documented power struggles, bickering and conflict.

Newly discovered dino named after Marvel Comics' Loki

Pretty cool.

Loki was a Norse god – and later a Marvel Comics villain – whose reputation for trickery signified the difficulty Ryan initially had pinning down the dinosaur's identity. "We had a lot of confusion with this," he said. "And if you look at the way they draw Loki in the original comic, he has this big helmet with these two giant hooks that come out of the top. So it's coincidental that it all lines up. I thought it made a great name."
