Rare jackets worn by George Harrison and Ringo Starr during the making of The Beatles' 1965 film Help! are being sold at auction today.

The outfits were worn throughout the five days of filming in the Alps - and also feature on the album cover of the soundtrack.

They're expected to sell for more than £50,000 in Liverpool.

The jackets are among 200 lots going under the hammer in Liverpool including the piano used to pen the hit song and some hair clippings from the band.

The items belonged to film director, Richard Lester. He directed the band in Help!

The auction is being held by Omega Auctions in Liverpool to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the release of The Beatles number one hit "Can't Buy Me Love".
