Lennon’s glasses stolen

A souvenir hunter has stolen John Lennon’s famous round glasses off a statue at the airport bearing his name.

They formed part of a 7ft bronze of the ex-Beatle that was unveiled by Yoko Ono in March 2002. Sculptor Tom Murphy said: “It’s a real shame. They were attached to the statue which has been damaged when they were taken off. We’ve put on a temporary pair and are getting a new pair recast soon.” The monument stands on a plinth overlooking the check-in desks at Liverpool’s John Lennon Airport.
