The Topp Twins - Highland Games

Television (Full Length Episode) – 2000

In this full episode from their self-titled show, the Topp Twins visit the 2000 Highland Games and Tattoo in the Northland town of Waipū. Whilst in character playing a variety of alter egos, the twins enjoy all the splendours of Scottish tradition, including highland dancing, the hammer throw and haggis making. The various characters also interact with one another and have some unfortunate accidents at the event, building up a story. The key plotline is the growing frustrations of Kiwi bloke Ken (Lynda Topp) that his Scottish Cousin Kenneth (also Lynda) is romantically pursuing Camp Mother (Lynda, again). 

Steady on mate! You can't call a woman yours unless you've talked to her!
– Ken (Jools Topp) to Ken (Lynda Topp)
