Fans are ecstatic about the return of the Leggos ad campaign featuring Tziporah Malkah and Kerri-Anne Kennerley

A much loved throwback TV commercial featuring former model Tziporah Malkah speaking Italian has resurfaced on social media.

Fans have gone wild over the 25-year-old spot which was created for the Australian made Leggo’s brand.

In the ad, which originally aired in 1999,  Tziporah, 50, previously known as Kate Fischer, can be seen telling viewers how best to prepare a bowl of pasta.

Dressed in a white shirt and slacks and filmed inside a chic kitchen, Tziporah’s dialogue set up her reputation as a sophisticated high-profile and much sought after socialite.

‘I’m home tonight so I’m knocking back a quick pasta with this Leggo’s stir through,’ she tells viewers at one point.

‘Bung on the pasta and stir through.’

‘This ad lives rent free in my brain,’ messaged one fan on the Instagram post.

‘The fact I can still say Kate’s [ad] word for word [makes me laugh],’ added another fan.

Fischer, 50, now known as Tziporah Malkah (pictured) was one of many famous faces who appeared in the series of Leggo's 'Talking Italian' commercials. The brand used the campaign for 15-years

‘It’s hard to be entertaining in the kitchen night after night,’ she tells viewers in fluent Italian.

Also loaded to social media was another of the ‘Aussies talking Italian’ ads, which featured former Labour Party Prime Minister Gough Whitlam.

The late political leader, who died in 2014, can be seen preparing a meal of chicken cacciatore as he sends himself up as a ‘revolutionary’.

After serving the meal he tells viewers the dish is ‘fit for a Queen or a President’.

The series of commercials ran for 15 years and featured many famed Australia’s including rocker Jimmy Barnes and funny man Peter Helliar.

Many Australians will remember Fischer (Tziporah) for her engagement to billionaire James Packer in the late ’90s.

She famously appeared in the film Sirens, about the hedonistic and creative lifestyle of artist Norman Lindsay, alongside Elle Macpherson and Portia de Rossi.

After splitting with Packer after a two-year engagement in 1998 she relocated to the U.S., eventually becoming an American citizen.
