00:07 The spectacular Saxifrage Way Christmas lights are back on in Worthing.
00:12 The amazing display was switched on at 5pm on Sunday, November 26th to raise funds for the air ambulance charity Kent Surrey Sussex.
00:20 The team behind it thanked everyone who has supported the project for the past three years, including Worthing Lions and Astar Waste Management for sponsoring them.
00:28 A motorcyclist who rode into a police officer in Eastbourne causing him significant injuries has been jailed.

00:44 Police said that he narrowly missed one officer but hit another on the arm and leg causing serious injuries requiring surgery.
