AT the 'Live Nativity', due to take place at Liphook Church Centre on December 5, a real wise man has offered to play a part in the traditional Christmas story.

Ninety-one-year-old Ted Pilgrim will don a costume to join two other wise men, five shepherds and four angels, as well as real sheep, cows and donkeys.
