00:00You listening, Gran?
00:04Sonny, I'm making apple pies, and...
00:06Oh, yes, yes, I'm listening.
00:09Well, you know what?
00:10We'll start using dollars and cents all over Australia...
00:13I get with it, you're not listening.
00:15We'll start using dollars and cents all over Australia...
00:18When?
00:18Come on, when?
00:20Psst, February 14th, 1966.
00:23February 14th, 1966.
00:25Right, and one dollar equals exactly...
00:27Psst, ten shillings.
00:29One dollar equals exactly ten shillings.
00:31Right, and two dollars equal exactly...
00:34Psst, two dollars equal exactly one pound.
00:37Right, when will the pies be ready?
00:40Here, Sonny, cut yourself a slice of pie.
00:42Oh, you do know about dollars and cents.
00:45Sure, we'll start using dollars and cents all over Australia...
00:49...on February 14th, 1966.
00:52One dollar equals exactly ten shillings.
00:55Two dollars equal exactly one pound.
00:57See, even a little old lady like me can get with it.
01:09Gran, what did I say?
01:10Uh, you said, we'll start using dollars and cents all over Australia on February 14th, 1966.
01:18One dollar equals exactly ten shillings.
01:20Two dollars equal exactly one pound.
01:22What else?
01:23Get with it.
01:24Psst.
01:24Psst.
01:25I know.
01:29For about two years after February 14th, 1966, we'll use both kinds of money.
01:36Dollars and cents, pound shillings and pence.
01:38Or shopping can be done with both kinds of money.
01:41So dollars and cents are as good as pound shillings and pence.
01:44During the two years after February 14th, pound shillings and pence gradually will go out of circulation.
01:50Then we'll use dollars and cents.
01:52Two kinds of money for about two years.
01:54Dollars and cents, pound shillings and pence.
01:56One as good as the other.
01:57The old money gradually making way for the new.
02:01Right.
02:02See?
02:02Even a little old lady like me can get with it.
02:12That's very nice, dear, but you're supposed to be practicing your scales.
02:15I'm practicing for something else, Gran.
02:17February 14th, 1966.
02:19You're making your first public appearance.
02:21Get with it.
02:23What happens on February 14th, 1966?
02:25We'll all start using dollars and cents and pound shillings and pence.
02:29Right.
02:29Now if you want scales, one dollar equals exactly ten shillings.
02:34In one dollar there are one hundred cents.
02:37Ten cents in one single shilling.
02:40And five cents equals six pence.
02:43Very good.
02:44You can get with it too.
02:45One dollar equals exactly ten shillings.
02:48I'd like to learn that.
02:49So would I.
02:50One dollar equals exactly ten shillings.
02:53In one dollar there are one hundred cents.
02:56Ten cents in one single shilling.
02:59And five cents equals six pence.
03:02See, Gran, even a little old lady can get with dollars and cents.
03:05Oh, a dozen apples, please.
03:17They're forty cents a dozen.
03:18What do I do?
03:19Oh, Gran, you can pay in shillings and pence or dollars and cents.
03:23One kind of money is as good as the other.
03:25That's four shillings, right?
03:27Right.
03:28We need bananas too.
03:30I'll have half a dozen, please.
03:31Sixteen cents, please.
03:32Oh, I haven't got sixteen cents exactly.
03:35Don't worry.
03:36Give me two shillings or twenty cents and I'll give you four cents change.
03:40Always pay a little more and you'll get the right change every time.
03:43It always works, Gran, because one kind of money is as good as the other.
03:48Oh.
03:49We'd like a pineapple.
03:50Twenty-three cents, please.
03:52Now, if I give two shillings and ten cents, that's thirty cents, isn't it?
03:56I should get seven cents change.
03:58That's right.
03:59So here's your change.
04:00Seven cents, see?
04:02You always get it right in the chain.
04:04Always pay a little more and you'll get the right change every time.
04:08Seven cents, see?
