Martin Lewis addresses concerns over cost of running Christmas lights

Martin Lewis has eased concerns over the cost of keeping your Christmas tree lit this year. During his weekly presenting slot on Good Morning Britain , co-presenter Susanna Reid asked the Money Saving Expert about the cost of running festive lights.
