BBC broadcasts live from Burnham street dubbed Britain's brightest

BBC Points West broadcast a live report from a Burnham-On-Sea street that has been dubbed the 'brightest in Britain'.

Presenter Clinton Rogers interviewed several residents of Trinity Close, including the Gardner family pictured here, during a live segment on Wednesday evening (December 9th).

Eight homes have been illuminated with over 100,000 low-energy lights, attracting national media attention in recent days.

Coverage has appeared in several national newspapers, including The Daily Mail.

The homes are being lit up each night throughout the festive season from 4pm until January 6th and over £500 has been collected for charity in the first week, to be shared by BARB and PETAL, The Christine Woodberry Memorial Trust.

Trinity Close's Paula Payne told Burnham-On-Sea.com at last week's switch-on: "It's our best ever display this year, with several new quality illuminations on show. We hope to see lots of people over the festive period and raise a good sum for charity."
