Preston turned out to see this year’s Christmas lights switched on.

Coronation Street favourite Jack P Shepherd who played David Platt helped turn on the city’s lights.

Thousands of people packed onto the Flag Market to see two-hours of performances from CBeebies Andy Kay, B*witched star Edele Lynch and many more.

The lights switch on took place on Saturday (24 November) with the lights going on shortly after 8pm.

Michael Porter was there to capture the festive proceedings for the big switch on, which was organised by Preston’s Business Improvement District.
