✨This is the moment Trafalgar Square’s Christmas tree lights were switched on. Every year since 1947, Norway has sent a tree to Britain as a thank you for its support during World War Two. Standing at 20m (65ft), the tree, which is about 65 years old, was selected by experts and through a social media poll. It has been named "Ever Oslo". The tree will remain in Trafalgar Square until 5 January before being recycled. What do you think of the tree this year? 🤔🎄 #Christmas #ChristmasTree #London
