A BBC spokesperson told MailOnline: “The lyrics you sent us are not being played by the BBC.”

Jimmy bled to death in the arms of his brother Harry, who was 19 at the time. He was attacked when he went out to buy his first lottery ticket on his 16th birthday.
Farhi, who has pleaded not guilty to murder, ran out of the store, with one witness saying he was “strutting around” and another saying he had “a big smile on his face”. Ta.
Three days after the murder, he booked a hotel room under the name Jack Walker and said goodbye to his girlfriend before turning himself in to the police.
He was found guilty of murder after a two-week trial at the Old Bailey in 2009 and sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 14 years.

Even before the brutal murder of Jimmy Mizen, Farley had a shocking past of violence and aggression.
He had previously bullied one of Jimmy’s brothers at school and then attacked him.
The teenage thug once attacked a girl when she was 16, kicking her and even spitting in her face.
Mr Fakhri was subsequently expelled from his state university, Crown Woods in Eltham, following a so-called “happy slap” attack.

In 2013, Farhi’s ex-girlfriend Chantel Lewis, 17, claimed that Farhi attacked her after high on cocaine and alcohol.
She told the Mirror: “He started hitting me and I regularly had bruises all over my body. I hid them from my parents and friends.”
“He came home drunk and beat me.

“He hit me on the left cheek once and I had to cover it up with foundation.”
Local sources told MailOnline they hope he does not return to the streets of south-east London.
Former Metropolitan detective Peter Brexley said: “Once again, you could argue that the criminal justice system is on the side of evil rather than justice.”

“That is certainly not the case in this case. My condolences to Jimmy’s family. It’s horrifying.
“We hope Mr Fakhri avoids south-east London.”
Even after receiving the sentence, it was inevitable that he would get into trouble.
In 2009, while serving a sentence for murder, Farhi was stabbed by Sean Mercer, the gang member who shot and killed schoolboy Rhys Jones.

Jimmy’s parents, Margaret and Barry, have previously spoken of how they have forgiven Farley and said they may want to meet him in the future.
Last year, Margaret told Good Morning Britain: “After Jimmy was killed I had to learn to live a new life and that means forgiveness.”
“If I don’t forgive this boy, I’ll never laugh again.”
“Last week was very difficult and this sentence was much harsher than I expected.
“I think it will be very difficult (to meet him). Maybe it will never happen, but we will have to wait and see what happens.”
Barry added: “This year has been a little difficult, but we are determined to bring some good out of what happened to our son.”
The Ministry of Justice and the Parole Board confirmed that Mr. Fakhri will be released in June 2023.
A Parole Board spokesperson said: “We can confirm that the Parole Board panel has directed the release of Jake Farhi following an oral hearing.”
“The Parole Board’s decisions focus solely on what risk a prisoner may pose to the general public if released and whether that risk is manageable in the community.
“The panel will carefully examine a vast range of evidence, including details of the original offense and evidence of behavioral change, to examine the harm and impact the crime had on the victim.”
“Members read and understand hundreds of pages of evidence and reports prior to oral hearings.
“The hearing may include evidence from witnesses such as probation officers, psychiatrists, psychologists and staff who supervise offenders in prisons, as well as personal statements from victims.
“During public hearings, prisoners and witnesses are typically questioned for long periods of time, often lasting more than a full day.
“Parole reviews are thorough and sensitive. Protecting the public is our top priority.”
