Fans of ITV's new reality show The Neighbourhood may recognise Liverpudlian twins Louise and Lyndsey from another television programme. The 25-year-old siblings are joined by Lyndsey's girlfriend Rosie as they compete against five other households to win a life-changing £250,000 on the brand new series hosted by Graham Norton.
However, this is not the first time the pair, who boast over 90,000 followers on TikTok, have appeared on screen. They previously featured on Channel 4's Taskmaster. Louise and Lyndsey also conducted a Q&A session on their Instagram page, which currently has over 22,700 followers, where they opened up about their time on the show.
Why They Joined The Neighbourhood
Speaking about joining The Neighbourhood, Lyndsey said: "We always say we don't want our every day to look the same. I feel like when the opportunity came up we were like, 'Of course.'" Louise added: "We've got to do it. What other chance would you get to do something as mad as this? Let's do it."
The trio live together in central Liverpool and have shared their plans for the prize money if they win. Rosie explained: "Where I am now in my life, I'm hitting dead ends and that money would be life changing for me. I'd be able to put a deposit down on a house, and think about getting IVF treatment to have a baby at some point in my life. And getting married would be a possibility because where I'm at now, it's not."
Louise added: "Me and Lyndsey want to take our mum on holiday. She's a bit ill, so we wanted to take her on holiday and let her see places and make memories and also use it for our business."
About The Neighbourhood
The Neighbourhood is a brand new format that sees families and households compete in a street-sized popularity contest, battling it out for a chance to take home a life-changing cash prize of £250,000. The 11-part ITV series turns everyday life into a giant gameshow that is authentic, immersive and rooted in real relationships.
Discussing his role as host, BAFTA award-winning broadcaster Graham Norton said: "One of the loveliest things about the show is seeing households who would never meet in real life, not only meeting but forming proper bonds of friendship. There are a few moments in the show that really do bring a tear to my eye because it's just so genuine, so lovely and properly heartwarming. It's such an odd word to describe a show like this but it's properly wholesome. There's something about the bright colours, being out in the countryside and the genuine bonds that you see created."
The six households competing are The Scouse Haus, The Bradons, The Kandolas & Samra, The Lozman Sturrocks, The Pescuds and The Uni Boys. A series of challenges will put every neighbour to the limit as they try to eliminate one another without becoming unpopular enough to get the axe themselves.
The Neighbourhood starts Friday, April 24 at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
