We've found Roxanne Pallett's Canadian twin!

What was Emmerdale's Roxanne Pallett, who plays Jo Stiles in the ITV soap, doing at the swanky US Critics' Choice Television Awards?

We know that soap stars must have pretty exciting lives, but even we were surprised when we saw Emmerdale's Roxanne Pallet (who plays Jo Stiles in the soap) strutting her stuff on the red carpet at one of the hottest events in the US television calendar.

We spotted Roxanne mingling with the likes of Jodie Foster, Hayden Panettiere and Zooey Deschanel at the Critics' Choice Television Awards. Or at least we thought we did...

On closer inspection, we realised that the actress wasn't actually the Emmerdale actress at all and was instead the Canadian television star, Hannah Simone.

You may recognise Hannah from the smash US comedy New Girl, in which she plays Cece. We wonder if she knows that she looks exactly like a British soap star?

We can't get over how spookily similar Roxanne and Hannah look - perhaps they were separated at birth? After some careful research we discovered that they were both born in the UK, so who knows maybe they're long-lost relatives?
