GLASTONBURY Festival founder Michael Eavis was in Burnham-on-Sea on Saturday to switch on the town's Christmas lights.

A day of family fun, which included street entertainment and activities for all, was rounded off when Mr Eavis took to the stage for the big switch on at around 5pm.

Hundreds turned out for the event and helped countdown to the lights being turned on.
