Wright and Tamara Lawrance star as June and Jennifer Gibbons, twins who closed the door on the rest of the world with a self-imposed vow of silence but ended up being cruelly served by the judicial system.
Adapted by screenwriter Andrea Seigel from journalist Marjorie Wallace’s non-fiction book of the same name, dramaThe identical twin sisters, born in 1963 to a pair of Windrush-generation immigrants from Barbados and raised in Wales, chose to not speak to anyone other than each other for
