Jedward have reportedly signed up to star in a new children's TV series.

Jedward's Tour Of Britain will see the X Factor twins visit famous landmarks and attempt to be tour guides.

Under the rules of the show, John and Edward Grimes will face forfeits if they forget key facts about the landmarks, which are expected to be UNESCO World Heritage sites such as Hadrian's Wall.

"We just did the pilot and it's got commissioned," they told Newsbeat. "It's going to be so cool.

"We go to all these places and we take these tourists who don't even know who we are on tours and make stuff up. It's going to be crazy."

The singers, who recently announced their new album Victory, are also rumoured to be starring in Channel 5's upcoming series of Celebrity Big Brother after signing a £1m deal.
