Best Answer

In 1963.

The Beatles' first single, Love Me Do, was released in 1962 and peaked at #17 in the UK.

In 1963 their next single, Please Please Me, reached #1 in three of the four charts that were commonly referred to at that time, including the New Musical Express chart which was the most widely recognised one at that time.

However it only reached #2 in the Record Retailer chart and it is that chart which is recognised by The Official UK Charts Company as well as by the standard reference book, The Guinness Book Of Hit Singles as the authoritative contemporary listing.

The third single, From Me To You, did top the Record Retailer chart in 1963 so it's officially the Beatles' first indisputable number one hit single.
