Yahoo Finance The Timing Of This Town’s Christmas Lights Switch-On Couldn’t Be Funnier
Comedy. It’s all about ... timing.
So, the socially distanced lighting of the town’s Christmas lights in Bridgwater, England, last week is comic gold.
Video shared on Twitter by BBC Radio Somerset on Friday showed the lights illuminating before local dignitaries had finished plunging the detonator that was appearing to turn them on.
Check out the video here:

Show it backwards when Xmas is over so it looks like they are switching them off. That'll work.
