Are my Google Analytics ( 2 domains 1 site) duplicated or unique?

We have recently built a new website with a new domain to replace an old website, and on the advice of our IT guys and web dev team have pointed both oldaddress.com's & newaddress.com's a records to the new website.

Now, they both share the same google analytics code (UA-12345-1) and as such we have two entries in the Google Analytics dashboard. The problem is I'm still fairly novice with GA and as the reports seem VERY similar (~25k pageviews for each domain), are these figures exclusively for that domain?

For example:

oldaddress.com 25,400 pageviews newaddress.com 25,600 pageviews

Does this mean that in total for this website I have 51,000 pageviews.

Hope this is clear enough but let me know if anything needs clarifying. Thanks.
