Musical and comedy duo The Topp Twins were well on the way to becoming national treasures when they fronted this late 1990s advertising campaign for NZ Post — their television show had brought them to an even wider audience. These four commercials feature a variety of the twins' beloved characters: old money socialites Prue and Dilly, classic Kiwi blokes Ken and Ken, eccentric camping ground managers Camp Leader and Camp Mother, and bogans Raelene and Brenda. The ads were directed by Paul Middleditch, who went on to helm ad campaigns for major brands like Pepsi and Amazon.
