John Lennon says in a long interview in the French weekly magazine L'Express that the Beatles smoked marijuana in the lavatories at Buckingham Palace before receiving the M.B.E. in 1965.
Asked if he took the decoration seriously, Lennon replies: "I took it as a joke. A priori we wanted to laugh. When that happens to you, when you're being decorated, you don't laugh anymore. Even so, we were bursting like mad because we'd just been having a joint in the Buckingham Palace toilets. We were so nervous."
