In 1992 the project was once again resurrected, as a sixpart documentary series. This time, the surviving members later to be dubbed in the press as The Threetles, were directly involved, giving interviews on film with Jools Holland. Also interviewed were insiders Neil Aspinall, the bands press agent Derek Taylor and their longtime producer George Martin. The title of the documentary was now changed to The Beatles Anthology as George Harrison was against naming the entire Beatles career after a Paul McCartney song.citation needed This new title was to be a working one but it eventually stayed as it suited the parties concerned.A rough cut was completed in 1993, which was much more interview based and focused on the events as opposed to the final cut, which included more concert and television performances. This early version of the series has since leaked and been released via bootleg. ........
