The family of a man known affectionately as Mr Christmas has turned off his festive lights for the last time.
Dave Edwards, 86, lit up his home in Croxley Green, Hertfordshire, with extravagant light displays for 42 years to raise money for charity.
His daughter Sharon Markham called on local residents to continue to light up Croxley every year .
Mr Edwards started putting up the light display with his wife - who died three years ago - as a competition with a house across the street, and continued to build on the set over the years.
