An competition winner got the perfect Christmas present - a phone call from his musician hero.
Jake Hatt, from Macclesfield, was chosen as the best design for thrash metal band Megadeath's Christmas Card.

His design, which featured a ghoulish skeleton wearing a Santa suit throwing a snowball, was sent to its millions of fans around the world.

On Christmas day Jake was called by Dave Mustaine, guitarist from Megadeath.

As well as a Christmas Day chat with Dave, Jake won a limited edition lithograph signed by the band, two VIP passes to meet Megadethon tour, a t-shirt and an autographed CD.

After the call Dave posted on his Twitter: "Called Christmas Card winner Jake Hatt in Macclesfield, Eng. Cool guy and cool chat. These are the moments I love my job!".
