Double triumph for brothers

Two brothers from Somerset achieved a unique double at Christmas primestock shows when Archie Stamp, 17, took the supreme championship at Frome Market's Fatstock Show with a steer which went on to sell for 405p/kg.
His brother, Harry, 14, then took the same accolade at Sedgemoor Livestock Centre's South West Winter Fair with a heifer which then sold for £3,000.
Both animals had been bought privately from the same farm earlier in the year and had been managed and prepared by the brothers.
