Island resident could have penned Beatles' first number one

A song wriiten by an Island resident could have been the Beatle's number one hit - according to late record producer George Martin.

The 'fifth Beatle' - famous for his work with the Liverpool outfit - died last week at the age of 90.

In an archived interview, he said he wanted the band's first big hit to be 'How Do You Do It?', a track penned by Mitch Murray.

However, Martin revealed the band felt it didn't fit their style.
