IDENTICAL twin sisters from Warndon Villages, Worcester, are to feature on a popular daytime television programme.

Millions will see Lynette Whitty and Louise Brand on the Trisha show with other twins discussing what it is like to be part of a duo.

Lynette, who lives in Bolton Avenue, said being a twin was "fantastic".

"Louise lives just around the corner from me and we see each other every day," she said.

Lynette said they had experienced the phenomenon where one twin can feel her sister's emotions, even if they aren't even in the same room.

The pair, who were adopted at the age of just six months, were invited on the show after Lynette saw it advertising for twins.

"The show is a light-hearted look at being a twin," said Lynette.

Lynette had twin children of her own, but tragically, her son Christian's sister Tamara died suddenly in November 2003 from Fujian Flu aged just three.

The episode was filmed on Thursday, March 24, and is due to be aired on Channel 5 within the next week.
