Wow I had no idea Dead Ringers was based on a true story.
And I wonder if this 1975 story inspired A Zed and Two Noughts (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Zed_&_Two_Noughts)

#12Should say [1975]
Not to be overly pedantic, but.. sure, they died in 1975. But the article was published on April 23, 2023. What is the correct label in such cases?
In this instance, "1975" confused me.

The article was originally published in 1975. Note the "From the archives" at the top of the page. Though it is confusing because they republished it with 21 April, 2023 as the date (presumably the date of republishing).

Yeh original was 1975, this is a republish, so 2023. Shrug

I believe it was based on a long magazine article on the case.
