thompson twins 22
The Thompson Twins were a British new wave pop band formed in 1977. The name is a tribute to the Dupondts, two characters from the Belgian comic strip Les Aventures de Tintin et Milou ("The Adventures of Tintin", Hergé, 1930) who were rather inept and almost identical police inspectors, although they did not really appear to be brothers. In the original French they were called Dupont et Dupond, but in the English version they were renamed Thomson and Thompson, which was what inspired the band's name.
