Three newborn calves have been serenaded by singers at a Carols with the Cows Christmas service on a farm.

Herod, Wenceslas and Chris Tingle were born on Friday and into Saturday morning at Old Hall Farm, Woodton, Norfolk.

Rebecca Mayhew, farmer, owner and manager, said the new arrivals were "slightly bewildered by what's going on."

More than 100 people are expected at each musical show, which took place on Saturday night and will continue later.
