Beatle John Lennon school detention sheets put up for sale

Detention sheets describing Beatle John Lennon's schoolboy misdemeanours are being put up for sale.

Teachers from Liverpool's Quarry Bank High School for Boys wrote that 15-year-old Lennon was punished for "fighting in class" and "sabotage".

The two documents from 1955 were rescued by a teacher in the 1970s who had been told to burn all of the books in a storage room at the school.

The sheets are expected to be sold for up to £3,000 each at auction.
