If it was Sgt Pepper colours, George’s badge would be red, his suit isn’t orange.  

George’s suit was definitely orange. Paul and Ringo wore the same colours reversed: pink & blue vs blue & pink. John and George did the same. Each of the two pairs was connected to one of the other two by the colour of the details: silver/white for Paul and George, and gold/orange for John and Ringo. Of course, George and Paul also both wore their MBE’s, and there were other shared details. But yeah, John’s suit was green with orange details and George’s was orange with green. Not red. There was no red suit.

Well I’ll be damned. All these years, I would have sworn on a stack of Beatles Bibles that George’s suit was red. I can definitely see the orange in certain pics but still see red (happily) in others.

From close up, it looks red.

While bit further back, I see the orange.

LOL I love that… burnt sienna!! 

 

All these years I’ve always seen it as being orange. Looks very orange at least to me in this video, give it a pause @ 3:28 for example and see the orange:

I always thought it was a faded-looking orangey red. Something like an unripe tomato. 

The trick of the light on the shiny satin makes it that much harder to tell exactly what colour it is, not to mention… ah… limited 1960’s colour photography.

I remember seeing a quote from him saying he was surprised it still fit him. It is the original.

Yeah it was the original, he had to get it let-out though, that’s why there’s no close-ups of him wearing it in the video because you’d see how it was too small 😛

Maybe while you are debating the color of George’s jacket, maybe some of you could take the time to vote in the

I did my patriotic duty to Forumpoolia and voted.  You should too if you haven’t already.

By the way, we forgot to pin the topic to the top of the page this year.  Oh well.  Too late now.

By the way, @Starr Shine? , when are the results announced?  New Years Day?
