If you'd just reluctantly handed over 26,774 of your hard-earned British pounds to light up your town in festive cheer, you would expect the things to work when you switced them on. Residents of Aylesbury were rather unimpressed when faulty lights left Santa with no face, Rudolph with one antler and the entire town looking rather neglected.
The lights have been described as scary rather than cheerful. One counciller mentioned that "the lights look like a mere afterthought, and look as though they have been used, year by year, without any attention given to how they look". Maybe next Christmas? Or maybe not...
