Speaker 1 (00:00):
A look at this trailer here Channel nine. I've got
a new show called Australia's Most Identical and they've popped
this up and they say one hundred sets of Ossie
twins put to the test in a special two night
event to find Australia's most identical. There are human phenomena
(00:20):
that have fascinated the world.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
We've been twins for twenty seven years. It's pretty much
forever since now.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
The search for Australia's most Identical twins.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Parents couldn't tell us apart.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Over two groundbreaking nights.
Speaker 3 (00:34):
Would you rather man or we?
Speaker 1 (00:36):
I think we're gonna be different on this one.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Par sets of Ossi twins put to the test.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Do you always talk together at the same time?
Speaker 3 (00:47):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (00:48):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (00:48):
Okay, so that's the phenomenon that the world was fascinated
by with the Queensland twins talking at the same time
seems to be going on. There's a pair of young
blokes from the act and they on us now Lieutenant
Timothy Lachlan and Lieutenant command and Mitchell Lachlan, Mitch and
Tim geto, boys, how are you going almost talking at
(01:11):
the same time? There? I will mention your are you
in separate locations on separate phone lines at the moment.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Yes, we are. We are.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
It's like an echo.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
That's a good point, I think first. First thing we
just need to clear up, Mitch. Are you a higher
rank than Tim?
Speaker 3 (01:34):
Yes? I am at the at the moment.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Yet Tim, how did this happen?
Speaker 3 (01:40):
You know, he's definitely a high performer.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Really, so you're both differ in how you go about
life and work.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
I'll tell you we definitely have different different personalities and yeah,
I guess that would that would affect you know, our
work and different relates and things like that.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
You know, yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
It was the interesting thing with Australia's most famous twins,
Mark and Steve in the cricket and Steve ended up
being Australian cricket captain. You can't have two captains, so
you can. But those teams are kidding himselves.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Imagine having co captains a twin.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Well they could have, You're right, Gabby, that wouldn't have
been the solution, So it can absolutely happen. This has
fascinated just Australia and the world just with the promo.
When did you boys hear about it? Why did you
decide to sign up.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Yeah, so I got an email from the Australian Twin Registry.
This was a couple of two and a half years
ago now, with a requesting for applicants for the show.
So I filled out the form and then yeah, we
got a skype interview with the producer and yeah, and
then they were happy to have us on the show,
which was great.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
All right, we've got to go to produce a Chelsea
who is also a twin. Chelsea, are you familiar with
the Twin Registry? Are you on that?
Speaker 4 (02:59):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
I feel like if I did get that email, it
must have been got lost in the jumps or something.
Where is my email or.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
All the twins on that? Do your mommage?
Speaker 3 (03:12):
I'm not too sure. I don't know if all twins
are on there. I think it's it's not compulsory at all,
so good, Yeah, I think yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
I think mum signed us up years ago when we
were babies to get involved in some research or something.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Well that makes sense, makes sense?
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Okay, So you're part of this show. It's a two
part special. They're figuring out Australia's most identical Is it
true that you guys didn't realize how identical you were
until you participated in this show.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Yeah. Absolutely. I think Tim and I like we know
we're identical twins, that we kind of don't look at
ourselves as being all that identical until it's pointed out
to us. And I guess one thing that we learned
on the show was that we're actually what's called mirror twins.
So it's like where reflective in certain in certain senses,
(04:03):
like the crowns on the top of our heads are
on opposite sides and those kind of things. So even
though we're identical twins, Yeah, where we learned something about
the mirror twins phenomenon.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
You the best like doubles team in tennis, because one
of you is a lefty and ones in a writing.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Well, we're actually both right handed. Yeah, we're both right handed,
but I'm Mitch's goofy footed and King's natural footed.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
Oh there you go.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Yeah, you're both right handed because back in the day,
they used to love to force us to be right handed,
even if naturally we were predisposed to being lefty.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
Yeah, that's a good point. I think I was always
right handed.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
I don't know if Mitch got the left handed sort
of pushed out of him.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
I'm not sure.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
Maybe just ambidexterises this both right. I'm so excited to
see this show because it's so interesting to see how
twins differ in different ways.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
It is fascinating, to say the least. And I've said
it a bunch of times and I'll say it again,
and just captured the imagination and attention of the country.
Tim and Mitch, thanks for sharing a bit of the story.
You and Canberra at the moment or you're deployed.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
Yeah, we've actually so.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
When the show was filmed, I was posted out to camera,
but I since posted back out to the South Coast
and Mitch is out there as well. So yeah, we've
both moved away from Canberra, but who knows, maybe one
day down the track and we'll both be posted back
to Canbra.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
We're still claiming you, so we're going to ignore that
that last sentence happened a.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Lot of bells forget. We've got a lot of Navy personnelity,
just because it's a bit of a drive before you
actually get to the water park. All right, boys, congratulations,
thanks for sharing a little bit of the story. We
look forward to seeing you on the TV This is
going to be really cool on Channel nine. We might
chat to you afterwards.
