Radio stars switch your lights on

Your favourite BBC Essex presenter could be turning you on

BBC Essex will be making the county much brighter this festive season, as the radio stars countdown to Christmas.

Presenters will be visiting 'blinged-up' homes across Essex and switching the lights on.

BBC Essex presenter, Ian Wyatt said: "People in Essex really go to town decorating their houses.

"If you cover your home with lights and decorations we want to come and look and flick the big switch to turn you on," he said.

If you decorate your home and would like someone from BBC Essex to switch-on your lights call the BBC Essex Helpline on 01245 348348.
