TWO sisters from Thirsk were the envy of their friends at the weekend after winning a competition with The Northern Echo.

Rachel Frank, 13, and her ten-year-old sister, Charlie, were thrilled to meet members of their favourite boy band at Lightwater Valley.

Rachel and Charlie won a VIP day out at the park where Blue were performing at the Children's ITV White Knuckle Roadshow. The girls received backstage passes and were able to meet all four members of the band.

The CiTV White Knuckle Roadshow from Lightwater Valley will be broadcast on ITV at 4.35pm on Tuesday next week.
