Lets take a break from the everyday analysis of celebrity plastic surgery, and enjoy this classic and thought provoking episode of the original (1959–1964) anthology series, The Twilight Zone.
The episode is entitled "Number 12 Looks Just Like You", and the story revolves around a future age-obsessed society where people desire to mirror one another, by means of a procedure that alters their face and body to resemble that of a model.
However things are about to get interesting, when a naturally beautiful young lady, Marilyn Cuberle, chooses to defy the status quo, and refuses to undergo the "procedure", which ultimately lands her as an outsider, as her "friends" try their best to persuade her into becoming a mold of her former self.
Which begs the question, are we currently living in a 21st century twilight zone?
