A NEW series about the middle aisles of Aldi and Lidl is coming to our screens later this year - and it’s looking for keen shoppers to get involved.

There’ll be two episodes of Secrets of the Middle Aisle (working title) and Denise Van Outen will present the programme.

Van Outen will dig into the secrets of the middle aisle’s special buys and seasonal offers that keep customers wanting more.

She’ll also look into whether the items are worth buying and how the supermarkets secure major discounts.

Denise Van Outen said: “I’m a bit of a bargain spotter myself, so I’m really looking forward to getting to the bottom of how these supermarket offers work and whether they’re all they seem.”
