Blackout linings

I've recently hung some new bedroom curtains, 66" wide x 90" drop, and now I'm waking up at 5 am each morning because, although they're lined, they still let in lots of light. I find it very difficult to get back to sleep once I am awake (I have tried putting on a sleep mask when I've woken up but find it's not much help…

Homebase also has blackout rollers, but double the price of others.
