Beauty Pageant judges

The Miss Hong Kong 1964 beauty pageant was being held in the hotel in Hong Kong where the Beatles were staying, and they were supposed to be judges.   However, they were so tired from their flight from the Netherlands, that they skipped the contest and disappointed many people.   This seemed to have been a pattern in the Beatles touring careers.  

However, John Lennon decided to go down to the pageant at the very end and helped with the final part of the proceedings.

 

Then the rest of the group (with Jimmie) came down for the press conference and met the winners.
