A MUSICAL Henley family saved the day when a Living Advent Calendar concert faced cancellation last night (Thursday, December 13).

Watch our video of the performance by clicking here.

Singer Toby Marlow, 18, joined parents Andy and Helma for a show at the River and Rowing Museum after the Henley Symphony pulled out. The group could not perform due to a member's illness.

With less than 24 hours to prepare, they put together a last-minute set of five festive favourites, including a jazzy rearrangement of Bing Crosby's White Christmas and a final duet of Baby It's Cold Outside.

Also present was Olympic rower and newly-elected Leander Club captain Debbie Flood, who gave a short speech and collected money for the Living Advent Calendar's charities Camp Mohawk, Sue Ryder and the Chiltern Centre.

For video from the night, keep an eye on Henley Standard TV early next week.
