Spurred on by customers, the festive spirit and whiskey, George McDermott, landlord of the The Globe Pub, in Cranham Street, Jericho, stripped off and ran half a mile around the block. The cheeky 2am stunt raised £105 for the children's cancer ward at Oxford's John Radcliffe Hospital.

Blushing wife Jean said: "There were about 100 people waiting to welcome him."
