A MALVERN woman and her friends will be appearing on BBC1's game show Friends Like These tomorrow (Saturday).

Rachel Noble, of Pickersleigh Avenue, and pals from her hometown of Evesham will be battling for the prize of a dream holiday in the show hosted by presenters Ant and Dec at 6.50pm.

The show was actually recorded back in August, but mother-of-two Rachel is keeping tight-lipped about whether her group wins.

"It was great fun; they put us all up in a hotel for two days and had a party with Ant and Dec," she said.

Now Rachel is looking forward to seeing herself and friends on TV, along with her children Samuel, aged five, and Mia, three. Also visible in the audience will be their stand-in Esther Povey, who was there in case one of them could not go on the show.

Esther will be recognisable to many in Malvern as she is a teacher at The Chase.
