A COUPLE from a pub and guest house near Tenbury are set for a weekend on national television.

But they are sworn to secrecy and people will have to see if it all ends in happy faces or humiliation.

Chris and Sarah Whitehead of The Rose and Crown in Burford will be appearing on the Channel 4 programme ‘Four in a Bed'.

Four sets of B&B owners take turns as hosts to decide who offers best value for money.

Each couple visit the premises of the others on the programme and decide how much they would be prepared to pay to stay the night and this is then compared with the price that is charged.

As well as the accommodation, each bed and breakfast is judged on the food and there is also an activity linked to a local attraction.

The programme is will be broadcast on Channel 4 during the week starting on Monday (October 10) and the Rose and Crown will feature in the episode on Wednesday (October 12).

It will all culminate with the day of reckoning and the results on Friday, October 14.

The other contestants taking part in the programme with The Rose and Crown are from Deal in Kent, Thetford in Norfolk and Lynmouth in Devon.
