A house in Marlow Bottom has been crowned with Britain’s best Christmas lights display.

Tony Shepherd, 63, decorated his home in 60,000 lights with each illumination being synchronised to belt out 15 different Christmas songs, with each tune taking 20 hours to programme.

The Christmas enthusiast officially turned on his lights on December 1 with more than 150 people attending the switch on.

The family have been doing this for a number of years and following the popularity of his bright lights, members of public have offered money to watch the display, with all the cash going to charity.

The vote was conducted on the price comparison website MoneyExpert.com, with the winning house receiving £500.

Tony revealed that he will donate his winnings to charity, which will be the Charlie Waller Memorial Trust.

Following the victory, the 63-year-old said: ‘We create our display every Christmas, and it’s become a local tradition for visitors from far afield to come and see our lights!

‘We’ve raised over £30,000 for charity over the past three years, so I can’t wait to see how much we can raise for the Charlie Waller Memorial Trust this year!’

Tony’s lights are on everyday from 4pm to 11pm, with the musical sessions running from 5pm to 9pm each night.

And to help with the Christmas spirit in Marlow Bottom and even Marlow, Tony and his family have also organised a schedule so passers-by can get ready for each song and sing along.

Tony’s win comes after MoneyExpert.com’s research revealed that Brits will spend £222 million on Christmas lights this season, with energy bills expected to increase by a third for households.
