00:00They have a chance to take home thousands of dollars.
00:03There's only one thing standing in their way, The Chaser.
00:07The chase is on.
00:17Hello and welcome to The Chase New Zealand.
00:20Can my team of four beat one of the world's finest quiz brains?
00:24Gosh, I hope so. Let's meet them.
00:26Hi, I'm Laura. I'm 28 and I'm a lawyer from Wellington.
00:30Kia ora, I'm Raiha. I'm 46 and I'm a stay-at-home mum
00:34and I grew up in Tahapoa.
00:36Kia ora, I'm Tim. I'm 60 and a public servant from Wellington.
00:40Hi, I'm Reagan. I'm 34 and I'm a podcast host from Auckland.
00:44So, that's my team.
00:46Now, one by one, they'll try and put as much money as they possibly can
00:50into the prize fund.
00:51Then, if they make it through to the final and win,
00:54they split the money equally.
00:56But hunting them down will be the chaser.
00:59And if they get caught, they and the money are gone.
01:02And first up, it's Laura.
01:08Are you glad to be first up?
01:09I'm really nervous.
01:11Yeah.
01:12Well, make it work towards you.
01:13There's no money in the thing yet.
01:14You're first up. We've got to get money in the thing.
01:16See, I don't even know what the thing's called.
01:18No, I like it.
01:19So, you won the opportunity to be a Kontiki group leader.
01:23Yeah, yeah.
01:24So, I entered a competition.
01:26Four other Kiwis and I got to go on a free trip to Europe.
01:29And while you were there, you had to live your role.
01:31So, I was supposed to be the squad mum or the organiser.
01:34So, you knew that when you won?
01:35I did know that, yeah.
01:36Were you good at it?
01:37Or did you lead people up the garden path?
01:39Oh, well, I was good.
01:41There was a memorable moment where there was someone who needed a little bit of help.
01:46They were, you know, a bit tired in the bath after a long night of drinking
01:50and they needed to get out.
01:51So, I took it upon myself to wake them up by hitting them with a shoe.
01:56Was it like a sharp shoe?
01:58Was it like a...
01:59It was a converse, actually.
02:00Oh, it was a converse.
02:01We love converse.
02:02They'd wake people up if you hit them hard enough.
02:03Yeah, exactly.
02:04Where did you hit this person?
02:05On the head.
02:06And the next morning, she woke up and said,
02:08Gosh, my head is really sore.
02:10And her friend said,
02:11Well, you did have quite a few drinks last night.
02:13And I thought, yes.
02:14And I did hit you with a shoe.
02:15And I did hit you in the head with a converse.
02:16Exactly.
02:17Let this be a warning to you guys.
02:18You know, if you don't meet Laura's expectations,
02:21I've got converse here for you.
02:23You do.
02:24Alright, Laura.
02:25If you win some money.
02:26If.
02:27When.
02:28You win some money.
02:29Exactly.
02:30What will you do?
02:31We are engaged to be married next year.

02:33So, I'm hoping another trip to Europe with my fiance this time.
02:35What's your fiance's name?

02:37Well, you know how it's done.

03:55$10,000.
03:57How does that feel?
03:58Yeah, that feels great.
03:59Great.
04:00I mean, you're a stage closer to a honeymoon.
04:02Exactly.
04:03Fantastic.
04:04It's just a matter of taking the money back.
04:06It's time to face the chaser.
04:08Who are we taking on today?
04:10Could it be the dark destroyer?
04:12He's the courtroom king and he's about to sentence you to defeat.
04:16Will it be super nerd?
04:18A man who thinks a dating app is something historians use.
04:22Is it the vixen?
04:23She doesn't chase.
04:24She hunts.
04:25Watch out.
04:26Or could it be the beast?
04:28If you see him smiling, it's already too late for you.
04:31Is it the governess?
04:33Don't ask her to put her heart into it.
04:35She just hasn't got one.
04:37Laura, who would you like to take on?
04:40I would love to face Mark.
04:42Oh, really?
04:43Yep.
04:44I've seen him a lot and I think he's a real hard taskmaster.
04:47Oh, I wonder.
04:48I wonder if you're going to get your wish.
04:50Let's bring on the chaser.
04:55Oh, my God!
04:56Hello, Laura.
04:57Hi, Anne.
04:58Yeah, I enjoy hitting naked strangers with shoes.
04:59Although, in my case, it's just trying to stop masking for selfies.
05:12Go home.
05:13Put some clothes on.
05:14Laura's a weenie bit nervous.
05:15Will you be a bit nicer to her or not really?
05:16No.
05:17No.
05:18Okay, fair enough.
05:19Good.
05:20Laura, let's put your money on the board.
05:22There it is.
05:23$10,000.
05:24Now, you know how it works.
05:26If you want things to be maybe a little bit easier, a bit more opportunity, take a step
05:30closer to home, the chaser will offer you.
05:32$1,000.
05:33Ooh, that's a bit mean.
05:35If you want to take the chaser on, give yourself less opportunity but more money the chaser will
05:40offer you.
05:41$30,000.
05:42Face the team.
05:44All right, team.
05:45Regan, what do you think?
05:47What should Laura do?
05:48$30,000 is a lot of money but if we're talking strategically, we've got to start with something.
05:52Right now, we're at zero.
05:53I reckon go the middle offer.
05:55You've been super confident so far.
05:56Come back to the desk.
05:57Tim.
05:58That thousands are still a positive but they won't even get you breakfast in Paris if you
06:03want a honeymoon.
06:04I'll go with Regan.
06:05Bring back the $10,000.
06:06Let's get a potty.
06:07Raiha.
06:08You killed the cash builder.
06:09I'm sure whatever you choose, you'll do great.
06:12All right, Laura.
06:13Face the board.
06:14What have you decided to do?
06:16Okay, so I think the $30,000 is a nice offer but I'm definitely taking the 10 G-bangers.
06:23Fantastic.
06:24Let's lose the one.
06:26Let's lose the 30.
06:28Well, chaser, I mean, good for her.
06:31Yes.
06:32I mean, at least you didn't go low.
06:34All right, Laura.
06:35For 10 G-bangers, the chaser's on.
06:39Good luck.
06:40I want to say you got this and we're about to find out you have.
06:46Let's have a look at your first question.
06:49The girl with the lower back tattoo is an autobiography by which comedian?
06:54Is it Amy Schumer, Celia Pequola, Ali Wong?
07:04You have locked in Ali Wong.
07:07Do you know this?
07:08No, but I don't think that's Amy Schumer's book title and I haven't heard of Celia so I'm just hoping for the best.
07:15All right.
07:16Correct answer.
07:21I thought you said it wasn't hers.
07:22I thought it wasn't but maybe it is.
07:24No worries.
07:25I mean, is the chaser going to know this?
07:27Chaser has put...
07:30Yes, she is.
07:31I love it when they're so confident and yet so wrong.
07:34I mean, that was the only one you knew it wasn't.
07:36Too well.
07:37So maybe we'll just shake up the philosophy.
07:40Next question.
07:41Actor Kate Hudson co-founded which successful activewear label?
07:47Was it A, Fabletics, B, Lululemon or C, Sweaty Betty?
07:58You put down...
08:00Fabletics.
08:01You know, I think I would have gone that.
08:03Yeah?
08:04Are you...
08:05No, you said yeah like you weren't sure.
08:07I know.
08:08Okay.
08:09Correct answer is...
08:13We're moving in the right direction.
08:15Awesome.
08:16Chaser's put.
08:20You'll have a lot of this stuff in your wardrobe, I guess.
08:22Oh, of course.
08:23That sort of thing is.
08:24Yeah, absolutely chock-a-full.
08:25Next question.
08:27Which popular toy was first sold commercially in the 1990s?
08:32A, Fidget Spinner.
08:35B, Super Soaker.
08:37C, Play-Doh.
08:43You've put...
08:45Do you know all of those?
08:46I assumed Play-Doh was a bit older.
08:5050-50 between the other two.
08:51Yeah, no, I think you're probably right about Play-Doh.
08:53Correct answer.
08:54They were great too.
08:55Yeah.
08:56Did you have one?
08:57Yeah, definitely.
08:58Yeah.
08:59Chaser has put...
09:01Brilliant.
09:03Alright, next question.
09:04It's going well.
09:06Which of these is not a traditional Korean dish?
09:11Bim-bim-bap.
09:12Barazushi.
09:13Bindek-tok.
09:14You put.
09:15Yeah.
09:16Um, I think the other two feel right, so hoping for the best.
09:32Okay.
09:33Correct answer.
09:34Good.
09:35Good, good, good.
09:36Chase has put.
09:38Yeah.
09:39Yeah.
09:40I knew Bim-bim-bap was definitely real, and it was the only one that didn't look particularly Korean.
09:47Yeah.
09:48Next question.
09:49A skateboard trick made famous by Tony Hawk.
09:54What name is given to a 2.5 revolution aerial spin on a ramp?
09:59Is it 50-50 grind?
10:01Is it hospital flip?
10:03Is it 900?
10:07To be honest, I've got no idea.
10:14You've put.
10:15I mean, seriously, I had no idea, but I know if I tried to do it, I would require hospitalisation.
10:22Yeah.
10:23Um, it'd be quite good to get this one right, though.
10:25Look, we're calling back.
10:26It would.
10:27Uh, correct answer is.
10:31Yeah.
10:32Mm, yeah.
10:33Um, I don't know if the chaser's going to know this, although she is a big skateboarder.
10:37Um, Chase has put.
10:39360 plus 360, 720, plus 180, 900.
10:48Okay.
10:49That's not good, Laura.
10:51That's not good.
10:52The chaser is on ya.
10:55It's all right.
10:56Yeah.
10:57Next question.
10:59Originally, a shortening of babe, the slang word bae is now also defined as a backronym for what?
11:07Three words.
11:08Is it A, be always engaged?
11:11B, best amigo ever?
11:14Or C, before anyone else?
11:17Yes.
11:19Very quick answer you put.
11:21Have you used this?
11:22I haven't used it as a backronym, but I do think it makes the most sense.
11:27Yeah.
11:28Probably does.
11:29Correct answer is.
11:33Yes.
11:34How good is that?
11:35One more.
11:36One more.
11:37Chase is going to know this, of course.
11:38Chase has put.
11:41Yeah.
11:42Yeah.
11:43Uh, all right.
11:44This could be the last question.
11:45This could be you going home, or it could be you going to join your team with $10,000.
11:52All right.
11:53Your last question in this round is.
11:56In 2025, teenager Luke Littler became the youngest player to win the world championship in which sport?
12:04Darts?
12:06Squash?
12:07Snooker?
12:10Had you heard of Luke Littler?
12:11I have heard of Luke Littler, and my fiance was so disappointed when we didn't go to see him in Hamilton last year.
12:19You've put.
12:22Were you going to watch him play darts?
12:23We were going to watch him play darts.
12:25That, I mean, no, it, it, so far it bodes well.
12:29Yeah.
12:30Do you think?
12:31Well.
12:32Correct answer.
12:38The G-bangers are heading in that direction.
12:42Right, no, chip, chip, chip.
12:43Don't rush away too soon.
12:44No, no, don't look alarmed.
12:46Sorry.
12:47It's just, I want Anne to have a wee chat with you.
12:49Say something nice like, God, Laura, you did so bloomin' well.
12:54God, Laura, you did so bloomin' well.
12:56Oh, thank you so much, Anne.
12:57It means a lot.
12:59I write all of her best lines.
13:00Seriously.
13:01Hey, congratulations.
13:02That's absolutely fantastic.
13:03Take your money over there.
13:06Look at that.
13:08Now that is a good start.
13:10Up next, Raiha.
13:12We'll see you after the break.
13:16Welcome back to The Chase New Zealand.
13:29Well, Laura, thanks to her, there's $10,000 in the prize fund.
13:33Raiha is up now.
13:35How are you, Raiha?
13:36Kia ora po.
13:37I'm very well, thank you.
13:38Tell me a bit about yourself.
13:39You are from the farthest northern town in the country.
13:42I am.
13:43I don't think it's called a town.
13:44Maybe a village.
13:45How many people in Tehapua?
13:47Under 500, definitely.
13:48I think most of them were family members too, weren't they?
13:50Absolutely.
13:51A whole lot.
13:52Yeah.
13:53I mean, your family is huge.
13:54Yeah.
13:55I'm one of five.
13:56Yeah.
13:57My parents both had, they're one of seven on each side.
14:01So both parents are one of seven.
14:02Yeah.
14:03You're one of five.
14:04I'm one of five.
14:05You have how many children?
14:06I've got six kids.
14:08I've got ten grandkids as well.

14:33Well, I'm expecting a lot from you.
14:35You're going to be smart because you were ducks of your school every year you were there.
14:39Top of the class.
14:40Ducks one year, my final year of year.
14:42Okay, but top of the class.
14:43Yeah.
14:44How many people were in that school?
14:45Hmm.
14:49In the secondary, there was 20.
14:51But um...
14:52Fantastic.
14:53Still, you're really clever.
14:54What are you going to do with the money you win today?
14:56I met all of my grandchildren only through...
14:59You don't even know their names.
15:02Alright, let's see.
15:03Let's see if you can go and visit them.
15:06Even if you don't recognise them when you do.
15:09Um, you know how this works.
15:10You've got 60 seconds on the clock.
15:12Every correct answer is worth $2,000.
15:16Good luck to you.
15:18I want you to do really well.
15:19I want you guys to win money and win big tonight.

16:30Raiha.
16:31$12,000.
16:32How good is that?
16:33Awesome.
16:34You should be really proud of yourself.
16:36It's time to face the chaser.
16:45Hello, Raiha.
16:46Hi, Javanese.
16:47I wouldn't worry about the grandchildren's names.
16:49Once you get to ten, you are allowed to give up and just start numbering.
16:55Uh, right.
16:56Let's put some money on the board.
16:58Raiha, there is your $12,000.
17:01Now, if you want to take a step closer to your teammates, the chaser will offer you...
17:06$2,000.
17:07Okay.
17:09However, if you want to be bold and brave and take more money home to the two grandchildren
17:16who are without names, the chaser will offer you...
17:19$35,000.
17:20Turn around and face your team.
17:22Regan, what do you think?
17:25Raiha, you're a smart lady.
17:26I reckon you could bring home the 35, but let's come back to the strategy.
17:29Just keep adding to the pot, path of least resistance, go for the middle offer.
17:33Tim.
17:34That $12,000 was awesome, but I know how much you want to get back here.
17:37So don't be too proud to take the two and we'll keep building this team.
17:40Well, Laura, you've done it.
17:41You know what it's like at the table.
17:42What's your advice?
17:43It is harder than you think and I think you're amazing.
17:46So whether you take the 12 or the two, just bring it back.
17:49Thanks, guys.
17:50Alright, back to the table.
17:51Right, Raiha, what are you going to do?
17:53Because this is your decision.
17:54That's a lovely offer for $35,000.
17:57That would be great.
17:58However, I think I missed two green kids.
18:02So I'm going to go with the two grand and just try and get back to the team on this one, please, Anne.
18:08Alright, that is your decision.
18:10So let's lose the $35,000 and the $12,000.
18:14Raiha, for $2,000, the chase is on.
18:23Alright, first question.
18:25In a 2024 film, Ryan Reynolds' Deadpool memorably fights which character inside a Honda minivan?
18:32And haven't we all wanted to do this?
18:34Wolverine, Sabretooth or Dogpool?
18:42You've locked in?
18:44I've locked in.
18:45Hey.
18:46Wolverine, why?
18:47Because I think I've seen this advertised.
18:50I haven't seen the movie, but I think I've seen it advertised.
18:53OK.
18:54So, because you think you know it.
18:55I think so.
18:56Good, good.
18:57Correct answer.
18:59You did know it.
19:01Good start.
19:02Best possible start.
19:03Chase is put.
19:06Yeah.
19:08Next question.
19:09The tradesperson term plumber is derived from the Latin word for which metal?
19:16Is it A, iron?
19:18B, zinc?
19:19Or is it C, lead?
19:22And there's a trick in this.
19:26You know, the answer is in that question.
19:28Um.
19:29You've put.
19:31Lead.
19:32Why?
19:34I was assumed lead straight away.
19:36I was just hoping it came up.
19:37But then I was thinking P, B is the.
19:41What were.
19:42The symbol.
19:43What were pipes always made of?
19:45Lead.
19:48Correct answer.
19:49Co, not plumber.
19:54That's an answer for someone who's ducks.
19:57Um.
19:58Chase is put.
20:03That is it, isn't it?
20:04Lead pipes.
20:05Yeah, the Latin for lead is plum bum.
20:06Of course.
20:07Plum.
20:08Bum.
20:09Um.
20:10Right.
20:12A winkle picker is the type of what?
20:14Is it a hat?
20:16Is it a shoe?
20:17Is it a garden tool?
20:22You've put.
20:24Garden tool.
20:25What do you imagine a winkle is?
20:28I have no idea.
20:29Hoping there's something in the garden.
20:31Something in the garden?
20:32Yeah.
20:33There is a flower called a periwinkle.
20:34Oh.
20:35Yeah, there you go.
20:36Source of secret.
20:37Well, let's just check it out, shall we?
20:39Correct answer is.
20:43Shoe.
20:44There wouldn't have been a call for winkle pickers in Tehapua.
20:47Probably not.
20:48We had no shoes.
20:49No.
20:50We didn't need them.
20:51Not even Jandals?
20:52Not even Jandals.
20:53Whoa.
20:54Whoa.
20:55Those were the days.
20:56Those were the days.
20:57Um.
20:58Chase is put.
21:02Yeah.
21:03Right.
21:04See what's happened here?
21:05A little bit closer, but still plenty of breathing space.
21:07Next question.
21:09Children's author Roald Dahl created which fictional bird?
21:14A.
21:15Big Eggo.
21:16B.
21:17Gandy Goose.
21:18C.
21:19Roly-poly bird.
21:25Now I'm thinking, with the number of children you've got, and grandchildren, you should know
21:32this, you've put.
21:33B.
21:34B.
21:35B.
21:36B.
21:37B.
21:38B.
21:39B.
21:40B.
21:41B.
21:42B.
21:43B.
21:44B.
21:45B.
21:46B.
21:47B.
21:48B.
21:49B.
21:50B.
21:51B.
21:52B.
21:53B.
21:54B.
21:55B.
21:56B.
21:57B.
21:58B.
21:59B.
22:00B.
22:01B.
22:02B.
22:03B.
22:04B.
22:05B.
22:06B.
22:07B.
22:08B.
22:09B.
22:10B.
22:11Ducks.
22:13All right, this could be your last question in this round.
22:15I hope so.
22:16Let's have a look at it.
22:19In what year did the all-whites exit the FIFA World Cup
22:23as the only undefeated team?
22:27Was it 1998?
22:29Was it 2010?
22:32Was it 2022?
22:34What was it?
22:36I would have no idea.
22:41You've put.
22:47Do you know this?
22:48No idea.
22:49It could be any of them.
22:50Yeah, it could.
22:51And if you don't know, it could be any of them.
22:53Correct answer is.
22:59Correct answer is a different one.
23:01OK, no worries.
23:04Chase has put.
23:08Darling, how do you know this?
23:09My recollection is they kept drawing
23:11and they went out at the group stage on points, basically.
23:16All right, well, we're still clear,
23:18but this is beginning to justify a few things.
23:21If you'd gone for the top offer,
23:23you'd be walking off now.
23:24Mm-hmm.
23:25All right, let's look at the next question.
23:26In Shakespeare's Macbeth,
23:30the three witches chant
23:32double, double, toil and trouble,
23:34fire, burn and cauldron,
23:36what?
23:37A, bubble.
23:39B, huddle.
23:41C, rubble.
23:44You've put.
23:47Are you confident?
23:50Slightly.
23:50Slightly.
23:53Correct answer.
23:58Yes.
24:02How good.
24:03How good, Anne?
24:04Yes, I mean, I wasn't going to get a question wrong about witches.
24:07Um, and my sisters.
24:11Yes, very well done.
24:12I mean, like Laura,
24:13you could have gone for the middle,
24:15but like Laura,
24:16I would have been one step behind.
24:17And if you're feeling nervous,
24:19best to give yourself that breathing space.
24:20Congratulations.
24:21You take your $2,000 in that direction.
24:24All right, my heart adds another $2,000.
24:27Up next, it's Tim.
24:29We'll see you after the break.
24:29Welcome back to The Chase New Zealand,
24:45and I am on my way to a full team.
24:49Raiha has put another $2,000 in the prize fund.
24:52We're up to $12,000.
24:53Tim, it's your term.
24:55Can you get back?
24:56I really want to, Paul.
24:58I really want to.
24:58Brilliant.
24:58Well, I've got high hopes
25:00that you guys are going home rich today.
25:03Your brother is the mayor of Clutha.
25:06He is.
25:06He's older than you, isn't he?
25:07Much older.
25:07A lot older.
25:08Much, much older.
25:09And God, does he look it.
25:11Totally.
25:11You, um, you became the mayor of Otago
25:15because your brother was already a mayor?
25:17Central Otago.
25:18No, there was a lot of lead up to it,
25:22and certainly seeing what he had achieved
25:23was part of the motivation,
25:24but not all of it by a long means.
25:26Let's talk about, um, your theatrical endeavours,
25:29which didn't require much wardrobe.
25:32You volunteered to take part
25:34in a performance of the Full Monty.
25:36Yeah.
25:37Yeah.
25:37A few years and a few kilos ago,
25:39but yes, I did.
25:40I love it.
25:41Um, so it was a proper performance.
25:44Yeah, full noise.
25:45So it's the Alexandra Musical Society.
25:46They do fantastic productions,
25:47and I'd been in one,
25:49and one of my friends who was on the committee
25:51after a few beers at the closing night of that one
25:54said, hey, what if we ever did the Full Monty?
25:56And I was like, well,
25:57we're going to do the Full Monty.
25:58Don't be silly.
25:58And he said, well,
25:59did you say it in that high-pitched voice?
26:01Well,
26:01if we do, um,
26:04let's both promise we'll be in it.
26:05Shook hands.
26:06He was on the committee.
26:06He knew what was coming the next year,
26:08I reckon,
26:08so I was set up.
26:09I love it.
26:10But it was the time of my life.
26:11Honestly, I love it.
26:12What a great thing to put yourself forward for.
26:14If you win some money,
26:15what do you want to do with it, Tim?
26:16Look, Linda and I are hoping to go to Japan next year,
26:18so we're really keen to put something in the kitty for that.
26:20Great.
26:21Linda,
26:22he's coming home with the big bucks.
26:24$12,000 on the board.
26:2660 seconds on the clock.
26:29Every correct answer is worth $2,000.
26:32I wish you all the very best of luck.
26:33Your team wishes you all the very best of luck.
26:36And your time, Tim, starts now.

27:43You couldn't have got closer than that.
27:45How many do you think?
27:46Five.
27:47More.
27:49Six?
27:49There's $16,000 in the prize pool thanks to you,
27:53or at least there will be if you can get it back
27:55after you face the chaser.
27:57Hello, Tim.
28:06You're not quite, Anne.
28:07Can you imagine me doing the full Monty?
28:10Let's just say the audience would see a whole new side of me.
28:15You know, I'd be up for it, Anne.
28:18You'd be up for doing it, or you'd be up for being in the audience?
28:20In the audience, yeah.
28:22All right, let's put your money on the board.
28:23$16,000.
28:24You've got to be happy with that.
28:25Yeah.
28:26You've got to be happy with that.
28:27Right, if you want to make life a little bit easier for you,
28:30give yourself a few more options,
28:32the chaser will offer you.
28:33$3,000.
28:35Ooh.
28:35OK.
28:36If, on the other hand, you're not happy with $16,000
28:39and you want to add more than that,
28:41the chaser will offer you.
28:43$50,000.
28:45Turn around and face your team.
28:47Reagan, $50,000 is up there.
28:50Timmy boy, 50 grand to get us all to Japan with you and your wife.
28:54Maybe we could all come.
28:55Bald brother energy, though.
28:56I reckon, stick to the strategy.
28:58$16,000 is good, but...
29:00$50,000 is a lot.
29:01I don't know.
29:02I don't know.
29:02Raiha.
29:04That was a great cash builder.
29:07I just want you back here so we can do your celebration dance
29:09when you're back here.
29:11OK?
29:11So, what do we choose?
29:12I know your wife told you not to be a dick,
29:14but I think this is the time to be a dick.
29:16Take the $50,000.
29:19All right, face the board.
29:21See, clearly, you cannot tell Laura anything.
29:24That's...
29:25Yeah, that's apparent.
29:26It's been a learning thing.
29:27Uh-huh.
29:27What are you going to do?
29:29Thank you, Anne.
29:30The $50,000 is great.
29:31And the sensible thing,
29:32because I so want to be back with these great people,
29:34is to take the low,
29:35but my pride won't let me.
29:37My wife also says pride comes before a fall,
29:39so I'm going to go $16,000, Paul.
29:42All right, fantastic.
29:43Let's take away the three.
29:44Let's take away the $50,000.
29:47All right, Tim, for $16,000,
29:49the chase is on.
29:56Laura tells me you've got a celebration dance.
29:58Yeah.
29:59And we'll see it if there's something to celebrate, all right?
30:03It's clothed, presumably, isn't it?
30:04Very much, sir.
30:06Good luck to you.
30:06Here comes your first question.
30:09Lumo was the name of the mascot for which 2025 event, was it?
30:15Eurovision, was it?
30:17Super Bowl, was it?
30:19Australian Open.
30:23You've locked in.
30:26You know what I think?
30:28I think it's the sort of name that Eurovision could well use.
30:32Because it's just daft from top to bottom.
30:34Just stupid.
30:35I mean, great fun.
30:36Yeah.
30:37Yeah.
30:37That's stupid.
30:38I just...
30:39Best guess.
30:40Yeah.
30:41Okay.
30:41Well, let's see if it was good enough.
30:43Correct answer is...
30:46Yeah.
30:47Good.
30:48You move a stage closer to safety.
30:50Chase is put.
30:51Oh, interesting.
30:52Oh.
30:54Interesting.
30:55Well, I did watch the Eurovision Song Contest, but I actually watched most of it with the sound
31:01off.
31:01Who watches a music contest with the sound off?
31:06Loads of people watch Eurovision with the sound off.
31:08It is frequently better.
31:09It's barking, isn't it?
31:10It is.
31:10It's absolutely barking.
31:12It is.
31:12Yes.
31:13All right.
31:14Well, look.
31:15This is looking good, isn't it?
31:16This is looking good for a man that turned down 50,000.
31:17It's not good to get at ourselves, Paul.
31:18Next question.
31:19The technology region known as Silicon Valley is located closest to which U.S. city?
31:26Is it Washington, D.C., San Francisco, or Chicago?
31:33Yeah.
31:34You've put.
31:37Yeah.
31:37Correct answer.
31:41Yeah.
31:42Chase is put.
31:45Yeah.
31:46Yeah, yeah, yeah.
31:47Yeah, yeah.
31:48All right.
31:48Chase is on the board with us.
31:51Next question.
31:53The classic New Orleans stew gumbo is often thickened with which of these vegetables?
32:00Okra, fennel, kale.
32:06You were quick and you locked in.
32:10Okra.
32:10Do you know this?
32:11Well, gumbo's really good, so it hasn't got kale in it.
32:15Yeah.
32:15And fennel, fennel's not going to thicken because it's kind of, you know, fluffy, so okra.
32:20It is good.
32:21And it's nowhere near quinoa, is it?
32:25Yeah.
32:25All right, correct answer.
32:27Bloody quinoa.
32:30Fantastic.
32:31Fantastic, Tim.
32:33Chase is put.
32:33That's the way it's made.
32:38Next question.
32:41All right.
32:42The 1938 Munich Agreement allowed Germany to annex part of which country?
32:50Italy, Denmark, or Czechoslovakia?
32:54You've put.
32:58Czechoslovakia.
32:59Yeah.
33:00Yeah.
33:00All right, correct answer.
33:04Yeah.
33:05Chase is put.
33:10Look at this, Tim.
33:11Yeah.
33:11Look at this.
33:12Yeah.
33:12Could be down to your last question.
33:14Could be taking 16 back.
33:15But as you would say, don't jump the gun.
33:17Correct.
33:17Next question.
33:20Wizardmania is the title of a show that features in which musical film?
33:25Is it Wonka?
33:26Is it Better Man?
33:28Or is it Wicked?
33:34You've locked in?
33:35I've locked in Wicked.
33:36Now, you know what?
33:37If you have got this right, how confident are you?
33:40Oh, pretty confident.
33:42Wizard of Oz, Wicked.
33:44Yeah, yeah.
33:45Yeah, yeah, yeah.
33:46Yeah.
33:46Good thinking.
33:46Good thinking.
33:47Okay.
33:48Stand by with the dance routine just in case you need it.
33:51Correct answer is...
33:57Take it away.
34:00That's it.
34:00That's it.
34:01No, I did it too quickly enough.
34:03You were too slow.
34:03Go on.
34:04Old white men shouldn't dance.
34:06Chaser, he's clever.
34:09He is.
34:10He's doing it now and I'm not looking.
34:11I'm not going to look.
34:12Yeah, I don't.
34:13It's terrible.
34:13Is it really?
34:15Tim, congratulations.
34:16Good man.
34:17$16,000, guys.
34:19Heading your way.
34:20$28,000.
34:22Reagan is up next.
34:24Will he increase the pot even more?
34:26See you after the break.
34:36Welcome back to The Chase, New Zealand.
34:44Great to have you along.
34:45Tim, of course, has put $16,000 in the prize fund, which makes the team total so far $28,000.
34:51And I am heading for a full team.
34:54That, though, is up to Reagan.
34:56Reagan, how are you?
34:56Good, thanks, Paul.
34:57How are you?
34:57Good, good, good.
34:58I'm great.
34:58I'm going to love this conversation because you do something which I think not enough
35:02people do.
35:04You teach people finance.
35:06Well, I'm giving it a shot.
35:08I'm certainly not the expert, but yeah, I host a podcast called Where's My Money?
35:12And it's all about helping Kiwis be better with understanding the world of finance and
35:16money and just getting better at it.
35:18How do you make it interesting, particularly for children?
35:21How do you make compounding interest and things like that interesting?
35:25You've just got to tell kids what it's going to mean in the future and hope that it can
35:29connect instead of telling them that retirement is something for old people.
35:32Retirement means you can live a free life where you don't have to stress about money.
35:36Isn't that what we all kind of want to do so we don't have to worry about?
35:40What will you do with the money that you're going to make tonight?
35:45Well, I've been engaged to my beautiful partner, Laura, not that Laura, so we're clear, for
35:50four years and haven't really done anything about it.
35:52So it'd be nice to go and get married, hopefully at a nice destination, maybe Italy.
35:57I've got some family heritage in Italy, so it'd be nice to see that country and do something
36:01special.
36:02Wouldn't it be funny if it turned out it was that, Laura, and you're scamming us?
36:06All right, Reagan, you know how it works.
36:08I'm going to put 60 seconds on the clock.

37:21Um, $16,000.
37:25You happy?
37:25Pretty happy with that.
37:26You did very well.
37:26It's good for $10,000, but $8,000's good.
37:28Honestly, Regan, that's fantastic.
37:29It's time to face the chaser.
37:37Hello, Regan.
37:38Hello, Anne.
37:39Well, your financial podcast sounds like it could be the exact thing I need for those
37:44nights when insomnia gets the better of me.
37:46I'd love for you to have a listen, Anne.
37:48All right, Regan, this is where the rubber hits the road, yes?
37:52Yep.
37:52$16,000, let's pop it on the board.
37:56All right, now, here's the thing.
37:58You know finances, so you'll know what the best thing to do is going to be.
38:04Absolutely.
38:04If you want to make it slightly more likely you get back, the chaser will offer you...
38:09$3,000.
38:10Oh.
38:12If, on the other hand, you want to improve the odds of winning lots of money, the chaser will
38:17offer you?
38:18Well, nobody seems to want to go high, so I'll up it a bit.
38:23$55,000.
38:26It's a good offer.
38:27And you know figures.
38:28Right, turn around and face your team.
38:29Tim?
38:31It's a big top offer, isn't it?
38:33But I reckon we've got a super team here.
38:36$16,000, bring it back.
38:38Big night out.
38:39Right.
38:40You're amazing, Regan.
38:42But let's do what New Zealand does and create a winning team.
38:46Laura?
38:47You've been big on the strategy the whole time, and the strategy is to get back.
38:52Regan, turn around and face the board.
38:53OK, this could be a full team.
38:55If you get back, it'll be a full team.
38:58What are you going to do?
39:00I'm confident in my ability to answer some questions, but I don't want to get greedy
39:04and mess it up for the rest of the team.
39:06I want to get back there, so I'm going to go the middle offer of $16,000.
39:09All right, take away the $3,000, take away the $55,000.
39:11Reagan, for $16,000, the chase is on.
39:22Let's not muck around.
39:23First question.
39:24Which landmark, oh, I love these questions, replaced Chicago's Sears Tower as the world's
39:32tallest building in 1996?
39:34Was it the Burj Khalifa, Patronus Towers, World Trade Centre?
39:42You've locked in.
39:49You've locked in the Burj Khalifa.
39:50OK, so...
39:52The clue there really is the year 1996.
39:56And I think I've mucked that up.
39:57The correct answer is...
40:00Twin Towers, Patronus.
40:03Chase is put.
40:04Yeah, the Burj Khalifa's a little bit later than that.
40:10So, you can see what's happened.
40:12Yep, it's not ideal, but...
40:14But it's early days.
40:15It's early days.
40:15It's early days.
40:17No reason to get worried yet.
40:19No.
40:19Next question.
40:22Which of these 2025 Formula One Grand Prix races was not won by Oscar Piastri?
40:31Japan.
40:33Bahrain.
40:35Miami.
40:39You've put.
40:42Do you know this?
40:43I'm fairly certain Max Verstappen won that one.
40:46OK.
40:47Correct answer.
40:50You move a stage closer to safety.
40:53Chase is put.
40:56Chase, I knew it too.
40:58And she's on the evil side of things.
40:59That's right.
41:00Yeah, yeah.
41:01Next question.
41:02In the substance, Demi Moore's character Elizabeth Sparkle loses her job as the host of what type of TV show?
41:11Is it A, cooking, B, travel, or is it C, aerobics?
41:16Oh, yeah.
41:22OK, you've put cooking.
41:25Do you know this?
41:27Not at all.
41:29No, that's not a show I've watched.
41:31So that is a straight up and down guess.
41:33What have you got to go on?
41:34You've got the name of the program, the substance.
41:37Yeah.
41:37And the name of the character, Elizabeth Sparkle.
41:39Sparkle.
41:40Now, if you put those two things together, it doesn't help you in the slightest.
41:44Thanks, Paul.
41:45Correct answer.
41:49Aerobics.
41:50I suppose Sparkle.
41:53Chase is put.
41:57Ooh.
41:58Well, given the storyline, it had to be something for which you need to be young and pretty.
42:02Because it's about being no longer young and pretty.
42:05That's what the film's about.
42:06OK.
42:07So you'll see what's happened now on the board.
42:09Remember how just a little while ago said no reason to panic yet?
42:12Plenty now.
42:13Plenty now.
42:13Yeah, OK.
42:13Plenty now.
42:14It's panic time.
42:14We're in the panic zone.
42:15Good to know.
42:16OK.
42:16Thanks, Paul.
42:17Because remember, I am so desperate for you guys to win.
42:20I want to get back to those guys.
42:20I would love it to be a full team.
42:21OK.
42:22We're a little bit at risk, but you're going to know this question.
42:29Excluding overseas territories, which of these countries has the most time zones?
42:38Australia, China, Russia?
42:45You answered quickly and you answered Russia.
42:49The correct answer is...
42:53Thank God.
42:55Thank God, because the chaser is going to know this.
42:59Chaser's put.
43:04Right.
43:05You see what you've done?
43:06You've kept up the momentum.
43:08Yeah.
43:08But also the pressure.
43:09Next question.
43:12Which social networking service...
43:14Oh, yeah.
43:15...launched in 2011?
43:17Was it Facebook?
43:18Was it Facebook?
43:19Snapchat.
43:20Was it Tumblr?
43:25I mean, we can instantly know which one it wasn't.
43:27You've put...
43:29Snapchat.
43:31Facebook was around way earlier.
43:32Yeah, way, way earlier.
43:33And so was Tumblr.
43:34Tumblr was around when I was at high school.
43:36Oh, was it?
43:36Yep.
43:38No, because I would have been a bit like this with Tumblr.
43:41Correct answer.
43:46Yep.
43:47Excellent.
43:47Excellent.
43:48Step closer to home.
43:50Chase is put.
43:55Brilliant.
43:55Brilliant.
43:56I heard...
43:57I heard Laura then go...
43:59Thanks, Si.
44:00I mean, we all did it, but Laura did it out loud.
44:02Yeah.
44:03Next question.
44:05Which major award...
44:08...did British performer Adele win first?
44:12Was it...
44:13...an Oscar?
44:14Was it...
44:15...an Emmy?
44:16Was it...
44:17...a Grammy?
44:18I don't reckon this is super hard, actually.
44:22You've put...
44:23...Grammy.
44:24Why?
44:25It's the only music award.
44:26The other's for movies and TV shows, so...
44:28Bit of logic there.
44:30You've used a bit of logic.
44:31Correct answer is...
44:35...all day long.
44:36All day long.
44:37Chase is put.
44:40Yeah.
44:41All right.
44:42I'm looking now...
44:43...at the genuine possibility...
44:46...of a full panel.
44:49This is what I want more than anything else.
44:51And it's about me.
44:53Another 16,000 over there would be brilliant.
44:56Yeah.
44:57But it's still dodgy.
44:58It's really dodgy.
44:59I've got sweaty hands.
45:00It's dodgy.
45:01I feel sick.
45:01Ooh.
45:03I want to get back there.
45:05So anyway...
45:05...this is what will probably be your last question.
45:11If you ever plan to motor west...
45:14...is the opening lyric to which...
45:16...classic road song?
45:19Is it...
45:20...Road to Nowhere...
45:21...Road House Blues...
45:23...Route 66?
45:28This is quite important to get this right...
45:30...because the chaser will know this.
45:33You've put...
45:35...Do you know that that answer is right?
45:37It just makes the most sense.
45:41It's talking about moving east to west.
45:45I'm pretty sure that's what Route 66 does...
45:47...across the United States of America.
45:49The correct answer is...
45:54Yes!
45:57Chaser.
45:58Look at my...
45:59I'm going to have a full team over here.
46:01Yes, you are.
46:02You're in trouble.
46:03Very possibly one doesn't want to be facing a full house.
46:07But, yeah, this is going to be interesting.
46:10Oh, Reagan.
46:11Good man.
46:12Thanks, Paul.
46:12You can take your $16,000 and shimmy over there.
46:17$44,000 is in my prize fund.
46:20I have four players in my team.
46:23Can they win and take home the money?
46:25We'll find out after the break.
46:27Welcome back to The Chase, New Zealand.
46:43It's time for The Final Chase.
46:45Laura, Raiha, Tim and Reagan
46:53have made it through to The Final Chase,
46:55playing for $44,000.
46:58I have a full team.
47:00During the break,
47:01the team chose between two sets of questions.
47:03Which set have you chosen?
47:04I chose set B, thanks, Paul.
47:05You chose set B.
47:07Of course, that means the governess has got set A.
47:10There are four of you left.
47:12So that is a four-step head start.
47:15You need to make that count.
47:16Look at it on the wall.
47:17You know, that is a huge lead-in for you,
47:20a huge lead-in.
47:21All you have to do is produce a figure
47:24that the governess cannot match
47:26and you will take an equal share of $44,000.
47:30All right, I honestly wish you all the very, very best.
47:33You are so close.
47:36Two minutes on the clock.
47:37Best of luck to you all.

49:58It's time to bring back the chaser.
50:00Am I right to be a weenie but disappointed?
50:17It shouldn't be enough, but you never know.
50:21Things could go wrong.
50:22They could get some pushbacks.
50:23It might be enough.
50:24We're about to find out.
50:25Now, of course, if the chaser does get a question wrong, you, my team, have the opportunity to answer the question correctly and push the chaser back.
50:36The pushbacks, honestly, you know for a fact it's all down to the pushbacks.
50:41You know, there is 11,000 each for you in this if you play your cards right here.

54:59And for you, the chase is finally over.
55:01Chaser.
55:02Yeah, I'm sorry about that.
55:03You played really well all the way through and, uh, you nearly, nearly beat me there.
55:10Um, guys, honestly, so close and yet so far.
55:13At the end of the day, you just needed to set a slightly higher target so that the chaser
55:19was working that little bit harder.
55:21Laura, have you had a good day?
55:22It was awesome, thank you.
55:23Raiha?
55:24Got to push the butt out.
55:26Remember those two names yet?
55:27And I remember those two names as I did.
55:29And they were?
55:30Ramari and Kapua.
55:31Kapua.
55:32Oh, you're out of jail.
55:34You're out of jail.
55:35Tim?
55:36Hey, it's a great day.
55:36Met some great people.
55:38That's the way it goes.
55:39And Regan, you've had a good day?
55:40Great team.
55:41Brilliant.
55:41The governess isn't as scary as I thought she was.
55:43Oh, she's pretty scary.
55:44I have honestly loved playing with you.
55:46Thank you very much for joining us.
55:48And thank you for joining us on The Chase New Zealand.
55:50Now, if you've been sitting there thinking, I could have been part of a team that got more
55:54than 15 and put the chaser under more pressure, I could have walked away with money, well,
55:59why not give it a go if you get the chance?
56:02Until then, good night to you.
