The brothers Millipede

Beautiful solution to the problem of knowing which is which on The Appalling Strangeness:
David, with his faintly pained expression and little tuft of white hair, resembles a baby badger with constipation. Ed appears to have a head that looks like an overcooked baked potato with hair crudely stuck on it. This is the best way to tell them apart, since there's been nothing in the campaign so far to aid with it - despite the fact that Badger Boy and Potato (now, there's a pitch for a TV show for kids, right there) have been running against each other. This week, there seems to have been greater attempt to put clear divides between them, and it appears the Badger Boy is the continuity candidate who doesn't mind change while Potato is all about change but won't do away with continuity with the past.
