Canterbury is one of the UK's least festive cities, a study has revealed.

According to a survey carried out by Beaverbrooks, city residents are some of the UK's biggest Scrooges.

The city comes seventh on the list of locations which have little Christmas cheer.

Topping the list was Norwich, with Nottingham second and Leeds third.

At the other end of the spectrum, the people of Peterborough have the most Christmas cheer, followed by London and then Derby.

According to the survey, 64% of us won't be singing carols and 63% will not be buying a real Christmas tree.

Almost half of people claimed they thought Christmas had become too over the top.
