"Just like synchronisation in their movement. We're going to keep the dancing simple because we don't want them to think too hard about it. And hopefully just enjoy so we can see the personality come out when they perform.

9. SOUNDBITE: (English) Fatima Felisberti, Face Recognition Expert, Kingston University:
" We tend to think that we just look at the faces, static faces, whether the eyes and nose are exactly identical. But actually when we interact with people we're trying to look at emotions. Whether they express their emotions in identical way, whether they move their mouth in an identical way. The dynamic aspect of the face is very important."

Mehmet: "Some of my friends tell me that since we are old now, why do we dress the same. I like it, I'm a twin. That's how I was born and that's how I'm always going to be."

25. SOUNDBITE: (English) Sophie and Polly Duniam

Polly: "We like the same clothes, we like the same music."
Sophie: "It's not like I want this haircut so you have to get this haircut. We both like it, so both have it anyway. So kind of works quite well."
26. SOUNDBITE: (English) Terri and Tammy Facey
Terri: "Everybody thinks we look exactly the same. But I think we look completely different. I hate that. I wish we would be more alike."

LEAD IN:
Twins are said to be identical when they develop from one egg that spits into two embryos.
But it's not always as simple as that - as 30 pairs of twins found out in London this week.
The most identical pair, will become the faces of a television advert.
So just how do you measure the identicalness of identical twins?
