Potter doubles on TV

FOUR Harry Potter look-a-likes are set for a TV appearance after being discovered by the News & Journal.

The Foley boys, Oliver,10, twins, James and Sean, nine and Leigh, seven, will appear on CBBC's Smile programme when JK Rowling's latest book on the boy wizard is released this summer.

The four all bear a remarkable resemblance to Daniel Radcliffe who played Harry in the hit film adaptation of the book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.

After the Paganhill brothers featured in the SNJ in February they hit national headlines and have been offered a number of media appearances. But they may soon have to cut the latest addition to the family in on their success.

New-born brother Owen is shaping up to be another Potter double.

"He's got black hair," said mum Nicola. "But we don't know whether he'll wear glasses."
