Topp Country - For the Love of the Topps

In TV series Topp Country, Lynda and Jools Topp celebrate home cooks and food producers on a culinary tour of New Zealand. In this excerpt, the twins visit their parents' home in Morrinsville and help their mum Jean bake the family's special gingernut recipe. Jean recalls the recipe's origins, gifted by Nana Topp after Jean's mother's early passing, and the twins reflect on a childhood spent in the country. While the biscuits bake Jools helps their dad, Peter, clean his beloved car. He shares how he first met the twins' mother, and fondly recollects his own mother. 

We're not biscuit makers Jools, lets face it — because we can come here and get them.
