1. Both movies feature miserable attempts at drumming. (The studio guy playing on the cymbal in AHDN and Algernon hitting the chair in Help .)

2. Both movies feature trapdoors. (The one that Paul's grandfather uses to get onstage in AHDN and the one Ringo falls through in Help .)

3. Victor Spinetti (obviously.)

4. In both movies, a Beatle cheats at cards. (John pulling cards out of his sleeve during the I Should Have Known Better scene in AHDN , and George peeking at Ringo's cards in Help .)

Can anyone else think of some?

In both movies, Ringo is a cause of the Beatles' troubles - when he went missing before the concert in AHDN and the whole thing with the ring in Help .

Also, in both movies, Ringo orders a drink but doesn't get a chance to drink it because it is smashed/tipped over by George

One day, a tape-op got a tape on backwards, he went to play it, and it was all "Neeeradno-undowarrroom" and it was "Wow! Sounds Indian!"
