Fifty years ago, on the fifth of October of 1962, the Beatles released their first hit "Please love me do". With this song they began a long and successful career that lasted till 1975 when they split up.
They got more than twenty number ones including: "Can't buy me love", "Sargeant Pepper's lonely hearts club band" and "Let it be"among others.
The Beatles became famous all over the world. They went on tour to the United States and they even visited Spain.
Nowadays their music is still listened in many places and they are considered symbols of the decade of the sixties. Two of the members are dead: John Lennon was shot in 1981 and George Harrison died of cancer.

JAMES BOND
It was on the 5th of October of 1962 that the first James Bond film appeared on the screen.
James Bond was already famous because he was a character in books written by Ian Fleming. But he became known all over the world when Sean Connery played the role of the secret agent in 1962. It was a great success, so more films were made . When Sean Connery left the saga, other actors took his place.
Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig have been in the role of 007 since that time. Even Daniel Craig appeared in the ceremony of the Olympic Games with the Queen flying over London.
Spain has been important in some James Bond films as Cadiz and Bilbao were filming sets in two occasions.
And in the next one Daniel Craig has a Spanish enemy: Javier Bardem is the evil character in this film.
Here you have one video to remember this great character: James Bond at the service of his Majesty.
