When was history re-written and Please Please Me no longer deemed a number 1 single?
Anyway I reckon:

Choosing your favs from a list that excludes almost all their best tracks ( in my humble opinion ) seems wrong.

Yes Kenny I think that's the way it will go.
If I was making a book on it I would have the Hey jude and She loves you well clear in the betting.

Bottom will be Lady Madonna I reckon, which I never cared for, and I assume others have similar good taste.

"When was history re-written and Please Please Me no longer deemed a number 1 single?"
In those days there were several charts based on record sales, but the one regarded as the official one was the BBC Pick of the Pops = the radio programme based on the Top 20 UK singles.
As they were based on weekly record sales all charts should have been the same, but sometimes they did vary slightly because one chart may have ended the week on a Friday, another on the Saturday or the Sunday. And PLEASE PLEASE ME was No.1 in every single chart except the BBC one.
The Beatles CD 1 with all their No.1 singles - Please Please Me was not on it, because officially it was not No.1.

Get ready for loads of nobodies in their 20s & 30s talking about the fab 4 like they are close friends
According to info they're counting us no 1s (28 in total)
well now they're including us, yesterday must be top 5

wrong, sorry guys!
Kenny gets his facts wrong. Nothing worse than a question-master who doesn't even understand the questions.
. Nothing worse than a question-master who doesn't even understand the questions.
They are there 27 songs are they using US as well? I find it hard to believe they had 27 individual number 1's combining the US and UK?
Mecca I feel fine has one of the finest intro's of any song. On my list it is on a par with Baba O'Riley
For what its worth, my top five Beatles songs (irrespective of Number 1's) are
A day in the life
I wanna hold your hand
In my life
Strawberry Field forever/Penny Lane (double A side I think)
While my guitar gently weeps.

'ringo was always my favourite beatle' - talking head who is about 25 
No idea what the total number should be, but I thought there were five singles that were number one in the US that were NOT number one in the UK. Yesterday of course being one. Someone will know the others!!. Strawberry Fields/Penny Lane is prob another.
penny lane

One final thought - They are probably counting the double A sides in US and UK as two songs (which of course they are!) and then deduping, in which case the total could easily be 27'ish
The Scottish guy who played the drums on Love Me Do passed away this week, I think.
Haven't heard anything on news, heard off a mate
