Sister Act: Doing The Two Step, The Brunettes Named Britain's Most Identical Twins [Pics in URL] By DAISY DUNN 22nd June 2010

They are so alike that even their boyfriends struggle to tell them apart. But Ruby and Pearl Day's other halves can be forgiven - especially since the pair were yesterday judged to be Britain's most identical twins.

In a nationwide competition, the 18-year-olds were deemed to be most alike in terms of facial likeness, personality and 'dancing synchronicity'.

The girls, from East London, are at college where they both happen to study the same subject - performing arts. They plan to spend the year ahead concentrating on their acting. Pearl and Ruby have already featured as extras in the fifth Harry Potter film, and will appear in the final instalment of the series.

The twins share a bedroom at home, where they live with their mother and elder sister, and have seldom been separated from each other.

Ruby said: 'People at school were always muddling us up and even now at college some people confuse us. 'We're so alike we're even able to trick our boyfriends as to who's who - but we quickly correct them if they're wrong!' Twin peaks The pair have featured as extras in the fifth Harry Potter film, and will also appear as extras in the final film in the Harry Potter series

A series of challenges resulted in them being judged as the most identical of the 30 sets of twins to arrive at Pineapple Dance studios in London yesterday morning, in a competition held by Cadbury's Wispa Duo.

Pineapple Dance teacher John Graham examined the twins' synchronicity, while cognitive neuroscientist Dr Fatima Felisberti judged the girls' facial likeness to be particularly close.

It’s fun to be in the middle of a hot twin sandwich.

One's got a little more junk in the trunk.

Doublemint Twin Lyrics satire:

Double your pleasure,
Double your fun;
Take two girls to bed,
Instead of just one.

They are very attractive, but don’t look all that identical.

[Steelfish]

You noticed!

I went out with an identical twin in my youth.The first time I met her sister the only thing I could think of to say was "oh my God" (it was the first time I had ever seen adult identical twins).Her sister replied "nice to meet you too".

Memories....

[fieldmarshaldj]

A closer inspection is warranted, but all that fabric obstructs the view.

[GOPsterinMA]

I’d like to be the jam in that sandwich.

[Perdogg]

I would too.

[fieldmarshaldj]

You boys are too old for that action. :-P

[Perdogg]

18 + 18 = 36. I am not too old for 36.

[JSteff]

Yeah and from the one picture one or both look slightly pregnant.

[GOPsterinMA]

10-4 Perdogg!

FMDJ, you are NEVER too old!!! Look at Charlie Chaplin and Hugh Hefner. :)

I married a widow after I was widowed. Her late husband was an identical twin. While we were still dating, she introduced me to her brother-in-law. It was a very bizarre experience. I felt I was meeting her late husband.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Now, now. That’s cheating.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Yeah, but Hef's gotta gobble bottles of Viagra just to make it with icky bleached-blonde Oompa Loompas with basketball tits. His taste has gone downhill with his age. Barbi Benton was the hottest girl he was ever with, and that was 4 decades ago.

She had the face of an angel, and the body of a... well, y'know...

[GOPsterinMA]

Hells yeah!!!

I remember the episode of “The Love Boat” she was on - oh yes!

[fieldmarshaldj]

Earlier than that. I recall an episode (only saw a clip) of Playboy After Hours from around the late ‘60s/early ‘70s where Hef remarks to Barbi about dating her, and she says to him, “I’ve never dated anyone over 30.” Hef replies, “Neither have I.” ;-)
