The Topp Twins and the APO - William Tell Overture
Television (Excerpts) – 2010
We're the last of a dying breed. Nowadays, it's all stand-up, but when we were growing up you had Billy T James, Lynn of Tawa, Fred Dagg. People loved them. They recognised their own community, because these characters were as Kiwi as you could get. They saw their cousins, their uncles and aunties, the farmer up the road...– Jools Topp on the Topp Twins' "old-fashioned" style of entertainment, Stuff, 24 August 2019
Prue and Tilly will be Dames too — and Ken and Ken will be Sirs I suppose . . . All of those characters are us. I'm sure a few of them will take the title at the odd gig or two — but it's kind of nice that Jools and Lynda are Dames too.– Dame Jools Topp on her and her sister and their gallery of characters receiving honours, Radio New Zealand, 4 June 2018
