Fenwick Christmas window revealed

The Newcastle department store has had a festive window display since 1971

Thousands of people have tuned in online to watch the unveiling of this year's Fenwick Christmas window.

The Newcastle city centre department store's festive display has been a fixture for generations of families since 1971.

This year, the theme was revealed as "The Twelve Days of Christmas", illustrated by Observer political cartoonist and former Children's Laureate Chris Riddell.

Fenwick said the display tells the "heart-warming story of Foggy, a determined partridge with a special Christmas wish".

It also said the Northumberland Street display would be accompanied by a soundtrack of The Twelve Days of Christmas, performed by Tyneside folk band The Unthanks.

Mr Riddell said he was "absolutely thrilled" with how his designs had been brought to life.

"My drawings and narrative have been brought to life through brilliant 3D creatives and fantastic moving characters - with the support of traditional mechanical movement," he said.

"[I] hope everyone enjoys the windows as much as I do."

It was officially unveiled on Sunday evening to a small crowd of invited guests.

The display will be open to the public from Monday.
