Royal wedding fever continues to grip the globe as the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton fast approaches.
Two days before the world focuses its attentions on Westminster Abbey, 20 lookalikes from around Europe arrived in London for a competition organised by easyJet.
After impressing a panel of judges in various challenges, including the perfect romantic proposal and waving like a royal, Simon Watkinson and Orsola Rossi eventually saw off their rivals to scoop a year's worth of free flights from the company. The 'couple' will now remain in London to watch the real lovebirds tie the knot.
Londoner Watkinson, 29, said: "I've often been told that I look like Prince William, particularly since the royal engagement was announced, but I can't believe that I've been crowned the winner. I'm so excited to have won a year's worth of free easyJet flights and to be in London for the big day."
Rossi, also 29, from Milan, added: "To be voted the best double to one of the most famous women in the world is very exciting. This really is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and there isn't a better place to be to enjoy the celebrations."
