ReplyDeleteAnd Esther Kwan as twin sisters liking the same guy in The Legendary Four Aces...
ReplyDeleteLater we will see Double Fantasies ...
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of seeing twins but most storyline doesn't quite live up to the idea. I remember the series, 'United we stand' with Barbara Yung (?, don't remember the spelling) and I remember it was fun. all these roles you've listed seems to be serious character roles, I would definitely like to see a fun twin series.
