Some 70 years after his birth, and almost 30 years after he was killed, John Lennon is still a music legend. Or is he?

When his widow Yoko Ono and son Sean attracted criticism for "selling out" after letting an archive interview be used in a car advert, Sean said the ad was "not for money" but was intended to keep his father "out there in the world".

TV was the most effective way to get exposure to young audiences and keep the musician "in the public consciousness", Sean said.

So are young people really forgetting about John Lennon? We canvassed opinion from people in Liverpool who were born after Lennon died.
