Conjoined twins dilemma

If I remember correctly the twins on QI were Chang & Eng:

One of then got drunk and started a fight, the judge ruled it would be unlawful to imprision the innocent twin and let them both go. At least thats what was said on QI, I couldnt see any mention of it on the web :)

How can just one become drunk? Surely the blood streams are connected?

Not necessarily. They had conjoined but independently working livers. Their bloodstreams will have come into close contact but I don't think they would have been connected.

WEIRD! Between the two of them they had over 15 children. That must be the most awkward sex ever to have happened.
