The girls, who are best friends, made carnival history after they were both selected to represent the village for this year's event.

They would like to thank everyone who supported them and helped to raise funds for the float and their dresses.

Alan Cardwell, Newton Poppleford Carnival Committee member, said: "We would like to remind everyone in Newton Poppleford that if you are 12 years or over by October next year then this could be you. A night we hope you will never forget!
