Sir Paul McCartney has revealed that the late John Lennon was considered the group's favourite member and unofficial “leader” of The Beatles, during a recent appearance on the popular YouTube series, Chicken Shop Date.

The 83-year-old musician joined host and creator Amelia Dimoldenberg for the “first date” format, which sees celebrities interviewed over fast food.

Their conversation, held over vegan chicken nuggets and chips at Camden's Temple of Seitan, touched on subjects including dentists, tattoos, and favourite dance moves.

At one point, Dimoldenberg asked Sir Paul to name his favourite Beatle.

Sir Paul replied: “Well, there’s only one left now. Currently, it’s Ringo.

“During the Beatles, I think we all used to look up to John, because he was like the leader, even though there wasn’t officially a leader of the group.

“He was very witty and it was great to have in the group.

“I think all of us might have said John was our favourite Beatle.”
