Sidmouth twins to star in Bargain Hunt
TWINS from Sidmouth will grace the small screen and appear on BBC One daytime hit Bargain Hunt tomorrow (Wednesday, November 14).
Sam and Cat Wilkinson, both 22, will take on other look-a-like siblings on the show – hosted by Tim Wonnacott.
The pair, of Summerfield, hope pals from the town tune in to watch them.
They said: “We still had such an amazing experience.”
The show was filmed in Derby earlier this year.

“Our parents have always collected antiques, especially old mohair teddies - so when we saw a teddy bear at the fair with only one eye, bald patches in its fur and loose limbs, we absolutely fell in love with it and had to buy it!” said Cat.
They also bought a nutcracker and some wooden ornaments.
