Looking back at those times is to understand how rich they were in producing people like John Lennon who helped change the face of popular music with songs to last forever. #IMAGINE50 #TimsTwitterListeningParty

He was promoting his ‘Imagine’ album which made it even more special because the title song is one of the best he ever wrote. If I had to choose another track from the album it would be ‘Jealous Guy'. #IMAGINE50 #TimsTwitterListeningParty
The interview was remarkable in the sense that John insisted if I asked him a question about The Beatles I had to sit inside a sack which was then closed before I could speak to him. It was the most bizarre encounter of all the 800 Parkinson shows I did. #IMAGINE50

I had not met Yoko before and she gave me a silver mirrored box entitled ‘A Box Of Smile’ which remains a treasured possession. #IMAGINE50 #TimsTwitterListeningParty
When I moved to the BBC and started the Parkinson show, John and Yoko were on the first series and helped to establish the fact that this was the show the biggest stars appeared on. #IMAGINE50 #TimsTwitterListeningParty

More comments about how old and frail Dad is looking after GMB interview. He's 85, sharp as a tack and fitter than me. #PARKYPOWER #likefatherlikeson
