Watch: Town ridicules 'diabolical' Christmas tree

People have described a Christmas tree put up in a town centre as "diabolical" and looking "a bit dead".

The droopy fir with browning needles appeared in Market Place, Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, on Tuesday.

One passer-by said: "Absolutely diabolical. It's not even straight. There's more dead in that than there is green."

Wisbech Town Council blamed an extremely dry summer for the tree not looking its best and confirmed it would be replaced.
