title	Christmas Lights and St. Mary's Church, Diss, Norfolk - 29th November 2004
intro	It's a rare treat: a day off to do not much at all - no travelling, no plans, just a wander into Diss. Roger Browne - local celebrity and butcher - is in the middle of putting up Christmas lights. Then, there's a look inside the attractive 500-year-old St. Mary's Church followed by the switch on of the Christmas lights in Diss. The lights have become fairly infamous following a BBC website exposé of the fact that the lights fund had only £5 in it the year before. This year, supposedly, there was £15,000 in the kitty, and whilst what's there is nice enough, it's hard to wonder where the extra cash went, as the lights seem more-or-less the same as last year's.
