I've tried both (two stacks and two stacks and a cell) and I think the
extra cell just makes it a bit fussy.

If you have an array of two stacks:

  stack<symbol> tape[2];

and 'dir' is the move direction as 0 or 1, then

  tape[dir].push(tape[!dir].pop())

is the move operation.  Reading the tape cell is done just once per
step, so tape[0].top() is not going to be expensive.

My Haskell TM interpreter did it this way with a pair of strings
(Haskell strings are essentially stacks).  But I've lost the code.  I
might have time to re-create it.
