The Wiltshire town famous for its old rail works and Honda car factory is to be the first twin town of the Florida-based Walt Disney World. It was chosen thanks to the efforts of Rebecca Warren, 20, who lives in Swindon.

She produced a winning video slideshow extolling the virtues of the town, and will fly to Florida to unveil a “Walt Disney World Twinned with Swindon” plaque. Miss Warren said: “I still cannot believe my entry has been selected. What a great opportunity for Swindon.” The town beat off competition from Blackpool, Brighton and Cambridge.
