Alas, he neglected to mention whether these were overweight middle aged gentlemen.

No, Dalek Dave words were aimed at the middle aged gentlemen with big tits.

You don't have enough information to pick. It's possible that both or neither will be able to handle the workload and work environment.
This is mostly a question of which personality you like the most. If neither personality really suits you, flip a coin.

We can simple down the option into two types of personalities:
#1 He could be performing well but he's totally unstable and unpredictable. He's like the drunk pilot that scarifies himself to hit the alien spaceship in Independence day movie. He might do adventures but nobody knows, when.
#2. Guaranteed above-average-performance , excellent deadline adherence.
Seriously I simply go with #2. I know enough about the project and it's not like we are going to hit a wall and seek for a heroic breakthrough. I can handle them I just need people to do their own task and check in the code in TFS on time.

At the risk of repeating what DD said... #2 is probably a woman, so with no further information, I'd probably give her a shot.
Seriously, I'd probably wind up throwing #1 off a roof within a week, so #2 is the safer bet.
I'm glad I'm not in a position to hire people.

Yup!We are really safe with this bet.
A well laid project plan don't need any surprises. May it be good or bad.
Consistency matters and the records in their CV simply portray it.
In fact I have my downs in my CV but still we can make out a pattern which says, untilmately I'm above average in my academics and at whatever I was involved with.

You have described two people who have zero work experience.
Which means either you get what you hope you pay for regardless or a senior developer is going to be spending a lot of time daily for a long time mentoring them.
So you pick which ever one you like best, subjectively, from the interview, because it is nothing more than a gamble either way.

Err...you are kidding right? That is a good way to set everyone up for failure.

Hire both of them and fire someone else in the group (or vice versa). Wait a month between each event if you like (and possibly fire one of these two).

We bought a house this spring, got it yesterday. A day of anger and frustration... 
A lot of the things the seller should have done wasn't done, I know we bought the house from a person that makes a lot of promises and keeps some of them. So I wasn't surprised.
So he has today to fix the things that was left, otherwise we bring in craftsmen to do it at his expense. So I'm not worried that it isn't done, just how much frustration it will take before it's done.

ho damn.... good luck with that hey!
and... I hope I won't be unlucky, this is rather too expensive..

You're not any poorer than you were yesterday, you have only made a redistribution between your liabilities and assets.
That you can make use of a house after this redistribution is only a plus.
I'm sure DD can tell you everything about how you get in the right mindset.
Be excellent to each other. And... PARTY ON, DUDES!

An Airlines recently introduced a special half fare for wives who accompanied their husbands on business trips.
Expecting valuable testimonials, the PR department sent out letters to all the wives of businessmen who had used the special rates, asking how they enjoyed their trip.
Letters are still pouring in asking, "What trip?"

That is the traditional toast made by British Navy Officers[^] on Saturday nights, probably a long time before Groucho ever made it.
