Is Kew Gardens light show worth it?

For the third year we went to see the light show at Kew Gardens as a Christmas treat. There were lots of new displays and it was as spectacular as ever. This year there was no queue to go in, a great improvement. It took us about an hour to walk round the course and it was filled with delights.
