Double Mastectomy Twins

Documentary following twins who have chosen to undergo a double mastectomy to reduce their chances of developing breast cancer, after losing their mum to the disease.

Twins Rose and Charlotte lost their mum to breast cancer when they were just ten. Now, as adults, the twins have discovered they too have the BRCA2 gene that predisposes them to the same condition as their mum.

This programme follows the twins through pre-emptive double mastectomy operations - a choice they have made to reduce their chances of developing breast cancer.
