Sir Mo Farah shared his childhood experience of living in a London flat after being illegally trafficked to Britain when he was nine years old. In a new documentary, The Real Mo Farah, the Olympic champion says he was forced to perform domestic duties for a family in the capital. Farah was only able to contact his birth mother in Somalia 10 years after he arrived in the UK. The Real Mo Farah airs at 6am on Wednesday 13 July on iPlayer and at 9pm on BBC One
