When twins Marcia and Millie Biggs start school today, the teachers will have no trouble telling them apart.
In a million to one chance, Marcia was born with their mother Amanda’s fair complexion and golden brown hair, while Millie takes after their father – who is of Jamaican origin – with her tight curls and darker skin.

The four-year-olds were pictured as they tried on uniforms before their first day at Osborne Junior and Infant School in Erdington, Birmingham.


Their mother Amanda, 42, says people still can't believe the pair are twin sisters - including their old nursery teachers. Amanda, a former Argos worker from Erdington, Birmingham, said: 'When they were growing up Millie was more timid and clingy and if anyone came to say hello she would take a while to say anything, but over the last couple of years she has come out of her shell a bit.

'Marcia is a bit bossier and is a bit more outgoing - she's a cheeky little monkey. 'Everybody is always amazed by how beautiful they have both become, and people still just can't believe they're related, let alone sisters.

They do look like a couple of little sweethearts...

I wonder why the one is so much taller than the other...

That struck me too Jim, I can only imagine again it comes down to her having more of her father's genes.

Good thing she didn't say that about the darker one, that's what got Howard Cossel in trouble. ;)

I wouldn't have thought a white girl could wear "Matrix Knots", but she pulls it off.

Well, they're really called Bantu or Zulu knots, but they were popularized in the movie, 'The Matrix: Reloaded' with the character Captain Niobe.
