The BBC is looking for tots who look like stand-up comic Miles Jupp.

Thy are wanted for a Children In Need sketch about Balamory, the kids' TV show that stars Jupp as Archie the inventor.

Producers are looking for mini look-alikes of all eight adult Balamory characters to perform live with the real stars for Scotland's Children In Need show on Friday November 21.

The closing date is Friday October 31, and the youngsters will perform at BBC Scotland's studios in Glasgow.
