Light fantastic: Electrician's Christmas house draws crowds

An electrician from Melksham in Wiltshire has decorated his house with approximately 200,000 Christmas lights.

For the last 15 years Alex Goodhind has been putting up the lights - which takes five weeks - and raising money for charity from the many people who come to see them.

He has raised more than £15,000, which goes to a hospice which cared for his mother before she died.
