60,000 lights at Jack’s home brings Christmas joy in Holbeach

For many people, a trip to see Jack Turner’s stunning Christmas lights display in Holbeach is an annual fixture.

This year an extra 8,000 lights takes the total at his Fleet Road home to the highest ever – more than 60,000. It took Jack (86) and pals Daniel Harrison, Tony Parker and Andy Pegler a fortnight to put them up.
Proceeds from a collection box go to Holbeach Hospital. Last Saturday was the best-ever takings – £52.60.
