Romulus and Remus, Mary Kate, and Ashley. It’s hard to deny that the world finds twins fascinating. But what of the mythology and the darker side of our obsession? Today we explore twins Joanna and Jacqueline Pollock, whose family was convinced they were the reincarnation of their siblings who tragically died - and Broadmoor’s Silent Twins, Jennifer and June Gibbons, who created a secret language that only each other could understand.
Apologies for some sound issues in the first sections of this episode. Content note: racism, death, mental illness.
