French TV icons and identical twins Igor and Grichka Bogdanoff died just six days apart—Grichka in late December 2021 and Igor on January 3, 2022—both from COVID-19 complications.
Rising to fame in the late 1970s with science and sci-fi shows like Temps X, they became known for their futuristic sets, eccentric style, and deep voices. Born in 1949 in southwestern France, the twins left a lasting mark on French pop culture. Their deaths added a tragic note to their legacy, but their influence on television and science enthusiasm endures.
