'I am not the person who instigated the split'

has gone against what was once believed to be Beatles canon by claiming he wrote A Day in the Life – not John Lennon.

Not so, says Sir Paul, as the 79-year-old has now contradicted the previous account and insisted it was inspired by a car accident which killed his friend, 21-year-old Guinness heir Tara Browne.
