Surely you can't get much more iconic than this?
The (in my humble opinion) greatest to grace the Earth!

It seems strange that they are not on the list yet.
Maybe soon.

Will, if you make the Beatles the next BM Icon on the podcast, you'll have a devoted fan for life. We recently toured Liverpool and did the Beatles story etc. Since then, my 8 year old has watched Help at least 20 times and a Hard Day's Night almost as many. She has downloaded pictures from the internet and made a mobile out of coat hangers to suspend the Fab Four over her bed at night. She is also constantly nagging me to find out if we can "blow the bloody doors off" - so the combination of BM and the Beatles would be paradise for her. Give her a namecheck, Will - she's called Beth.

I think it's The Beatles FTW. They may make it onto iTunes one day, with the release of Rock Band I'm sure we'll see more of them coming into the digital age.
Start the trend Will!

How come no one has thought of them before?
Perhaps because they are a world icon we tend not to view them as british!
Now the floodgates will open as Britain has produced so many iconic bands. Zeppelin, Genesis, Bowie ...

Wow, Will - 'fraid I've only just got round to listening to Episode 91 - I've got one very thrilled daughter here! Thanks.
Tim (and Beth)

Yeah - hope it's more reliable than Guitar Hero. I've had to send back my yellow cymbal and now the whole drum kit is caput - and contacting the manufacturers is a right palaver!

Come on Will!
Sort out The Beatles as the next "British Icon"
There really is no more iconic representation of Britishness.
Alan.

Just to complete the story, the Beatles were indeed made a British Icon in BM91 !
