Transcript
00:00Our contestants will need to outsmart each other and the machine to make those
00:04canners fall in their favor. Who'll have a swing at our jackpot worth $20,000?
00:09I'm Todd Woodbridge, let's find out on Tipping Point.
00:32Welcome to Tipping Point where these three contestants are ready to take on the machine,
00:36so let's meet them.
00:37Hi, I'm Nadia, I'm a social worker from Adelaide and if I win today I'm taking my family to
00:41the Maldives and buying my husband a classic car.
00:44I'm Billy, a bakery manager from Fitzroy. I love a donut and I can tell you which one
00:49to get the best bang for your buck.
00:50I'm Patricia from Safety Beach and I love going to live gigs with my friends and we all act
00:56like teenagers.
00:57Good for you, Patricia. Nothing like getting out and having a good time.
01:04And I read that you want to have a good time with some dollars if you could get them today.
01:09Yeah, I want a big funeral.
01:10Right.
01:11Yeah, a party.
01:12Wasn't what I was expecting to read on your card.
01:13A party with a band, everything.
01:15Can I have an invite?
01:16Oh, absolutely.
01:17All right, good.
01:17It might be a while.
01:18Oh, good.
01:19Yeah, we've got time to work on it.
01:21Good luck to you today, Patricia.
01:23Hey, Billy, best donuts?
01:25Cinnamon, hot cinnamon donut.
01:26Oh, good damn.
01:27Yeah.
01:28No, no, no, just plain cinnamon.
01:29Oh, really?
01:30Yeah.
01:30Much more to talk about, but Billy, good luck to you.
01:33Nadia, trip to the Maldives.
01:35And Angelo, welcome to you.
01:37That's your husband who's in the crowd.
01:38How are you?
01:39Good.
01:39How are you?
01:40Good.
01:40What type of car would you like that Nadia's going to get you?
01:42Oh, just a classic S-series Valiant would be nice.
01:46Is that right?
01:47Nadia?
01:47Yeah.
01:47I'm going to have to play very well today.
01:49Well, good luck.
01:50You three ready to get going?
01:51Yeah.
01:52Here we go.
01:52We're going to play round one, Bank Builder.
01:59All right, Bank Builder's your chance to make some serious cash, and in this round,
02:03every counter that you push over the tipping point, $100 will be added to your bank.
02:07You each start with three counters, and if you buzz in and answer correctly, you can
02:11choose to play one of your counters into the machine, or you could ask one of your opponents
02:15to play one of theirs instead.
02:17If you answer incorrectly or don't answer within three seconds, unfortunately, I'll have
02:22to take a counter away from you.
02:23And in the machine, you'll see the two double counters.
02:26If you can push those over, you'll double the value of your drop, along with the two
02:29mystery counters, that if you can push those over, you'll be going home with a fantastic
02:33prize.
02:34Time to get things started.
02:35Hands on buzzers.
02:36And here comes the first question.
02:38Which search engine often celebrates events and famous figures by altering its logo with
02:43Nadia?
02:44Google.
02:45Correct.
02:45With a doodle.
02:46Nice start, Nadia.
02:49So that's the first bit done, but then you've got to make another decision.
02:51To play or not?
02:52I think I'm going to pass, Todd.
02:54Are you?
02:54Yes.
02:55I'm going to go with Billy, because he's right next to me.
02:57Righto, Billy.
02:58It's all yours.
02:59Where would you like to play the opening counter?
03:00Let's go drop zone two.
03:03Two for Billy.
03:04Light it up.
03:10Yeah.
03:11Nice and flat.
03:12And it looks nicely lined up with that grey.
03:16Yep.
03:17So you get something off the top.
03:22Oh.
03:23Well that's unusual, Billy.
03:25No good.
03:25Normally something off the top gets something on that lower shelf.
03:28So, ready to go drop zone two, I suspect, as we get ready for the second question.
03:32Mentioning an insect, a famous classical piece by composer Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov is Flight
03:38of the What?
03:40Patricia.
03:41Bumblebee.
03:42Correct.
03:44I'll play.
03:45Drop zone two, please.
03:47I thought you would.
03:47Light it up.
03:48Drop zone two.
03:50A couple of early shadows hanging on that tipping point for you, Patricia.
03:58Bounces around, but settles flat.
04:00Yes.
04:01Whoa.
04:03Whoa.
04:03Whoa.
04:05Come on.
04:07Whoa.
04:08Finally won.
04:09That's all.
04:10Machine is a little miserly early on today.
04:13One in, one out for you, Patricia, but a hundred goes into the machine.
04:17We transfer it into your bank.
04:18You got the lead.
04:21Alright, moving on.
04:22Next question.
04:23The limestone stacks, called the Twelve Apostles, are located along which iconic Victorian coastal
04:28Billy?
04:29The Great Ocean Road.
04:31Correct, Billy.
04:33Victorian Coastal Highway.
04:35Alright.
04:35I'm going to play.
04:36I thought you would as well.
04:37We're going to go drop zone two.
04:39Locked and loaded.
04:40Ready to pay out, I suspect.
04:41Light it up.
04:42Good luck, Billy.
04:47Yep, yep.
04:48Good spot.
04:48Good spot.
04:49There is a little gap at the front though.
04:53Right there.
04:54Oh, no.
04:55They snuck in and underneath Billy.
04:57Unlucky.
04:58Bad.
04:58You have one counter left to play.
05:00No money in the bank.
05:01Patricia has two.
05:02Nadia with all three still.
05:04Next question.
05:05A fraudulent financial scheme focused on recruiting new participants is named for what 3D shape?
05:12Nadia.
05:13Pyramid.
05:13It is indeed.
05:14Pyramid.
05:15Alright, Nadia.
05:16You've been able to hang on here.
05:18What are you going to do now?
05:19I'm going to play this time though.
05:21Two.
05:22Alright, up job zone two.
05:23Fourth time we've been there and only one counter has come over the tipping point.
05:32Oh, Nadia.
05:33Rider.
05:35It's going to ride on top.
05:38No way.
05:39Oh, you got something off.
05:45Lucky.
05:46Unusual to get a rider and get something off the top shelf.
05:49Three came over the tipping point in the end.
05:51So, you've hit the lead.
05:52300 will go up.
05:53We'll take it out and you'll have a two counter lead over Patricia.
05:58Tight game.
05:59Plenty of money on offer in that left hand side of the machine soon.
06:03Next question.
06:04With a round face, snub nose and long fur, Persian is an ancient breed of what domesticated animal?
06:11Patricia.
06:12Cat.
06:12Correct.
06:13Well done.
06:14A perfect answer for Fisher.
06:17Um, drop zone two please, Todd.
06:18Light it up.
06:26Oh, got down but again there's gaps.
06:28It's going to have to be a lateral push left or right.
06:31Oh no.
06:33Oh, look at that one there.
06:34Unlucky.
06:35It's kind of opened up like a clam and it's not going to come over.
06:39Oh well.
06:40That's okay.
06:41There has been an incredible amount of building over on drop zone two.
06:44No one's got the big payday yet.
06:46Nadia, still got two counters.
06:48Billy and Patricia, a single counter left.
06:51Moving on.
06:53Who plays Spider-Man opposite Kirsten Dunst as Billy?
06:57Toby Maguire.
06:58That's correct.
06:59As Mary Jane Watson.
07:03Drop zone two.
07:04Light it up again.
07:11Left, left, left.
07:14I think that'll be better, Billy.
07:15It'll be alright.
07:18Oh, you're kidding.
07:20Oh, you're joking.
07:22They're just hanging on.
07:24They're like sticking to the top shelf.
07:27That is unlucky to say the least.
07:29And Billy, you've got nothing to transfer and all three counters are gone for you.
07:33You've just got to hope that these two don't get away from you with the final counters left
07:37to play.
07:37Nadia, you've got two.
07:39Patricia, you have one.
07:41What white semi-hard cheese is named for its origin in Monterey, California?
07:48Nadia.
07:49Monterey Jack.
07:50Correct.
07:50Good work.
07:54There's no point asking in the way, is there?
07:56Light her up.
07:57There are three other drop zones, just to be sure.
08:07The mystery could be in play for you, Nadia.
08:10I hope so.
08:11Here it comes.
08:12Wow.
08:13Oh, good.
08:14Oh!
08:20Good work, good work.
08:22Well, it was inevitable.
08:23It was going to pay out eventually.
08:24Nadia, your timing was perfect.
08:26And that was nine over the tipping point, including the mystery.
08:30So, let's take 900, put that into your bank, and now you've got a very good lead indeed
08:34with $1,200.
08:36And then, you've also won a Harvey Norman gift card to spend on furniture, bedding, home
08:42appliances, and technology.
08:43It's valued at $1,500.
08:45Thanks to Harvey Norman, where you'll find the best branch, best range, and best prices.
08:51Well played.
08:52All right.
08:52One counter left, Nadia and you, Patricia.
08:55See whether you can chase her down a little here.
08:57You're 11 behind, Patricia.
08:59Next question is, which African country defeated Australia in the 2025 final of Cricket's World
09:05Test Championships?
09:07Patricia.
09:08South Africa.
09:08Correct.
09:09Correct.
09:09Well done, Patricia.
09:11Which one?
09:15Okay, drop zone one.
09:16Light up one.
09:25Don't sit in between the two, like there.
09:29New drop zone, that can happen.
09:31It's gone in between the two rows, Patricia.
09:33So, no counters left for you, just $100 in the bank.
09:36Tight, you and Billy.
09:37Nadia's got a good lead.
09:39One left.
09:40No need to buzz in, Nadia.
09:41Do need to give me an answer, and you've got three seconds to do it.
09:43Here's the last question of the round.
09:45Which hairstyle, famously worn by Amy Winehouse and Marge Simpson, is named for an insect home?
09:52Burrow?
09:56Fancy wearing a burrow.
09:59It's a beehive.
10:03Now I've told you, you know, don't you?
10:05That would be a weird one.
10:07I'm going to regret that.
10:08Well, listen, I've got to take that counter away.
10:10Billy and Patricia are happy about that, because at the end of our bank build around Nadia,
10:14you've still got a nice lead of $1,200.
10:16Billy, bit of work to do.
10:18Same for you, Patricia, in Quickfire, which is coming up next on Tipping Point.
10:34Welcome back, everyone, to Tipping Point.
10:36Nadia, Billy and Patricia all want a place in the jackpot round to play for $20,000.
10:40To make it happen, let's keep the game moving along.
10:43Let's play Quickfire.
10:48All right, in Quickfire, you'll each have 30 seconds to answer as many questions as possible.
10:52For every correct answer, you'll get a counter to play into the machine.
10:55Now, the contestant with the lowest score at the end of this round, we will say goodbye to.
11:00So, Nadia, you have the lead by 11 at the moment over Patricia.
11:03Going to continue to play first, or are you going to use a bit of tactics as you did with
11:07the opening question of round one?
11:08I'm going to give it a go, Todd.

26:14could you tell me
26:15I'm a social worker
26:16so I do a lot of work in well-being
26:18with young people
26:19very rewarding

26:24and to be able to help them through that
26:25so not easy
26:26because obviously you're a mum of three
26:29three

26:53you said the make the model
26:54can you tell us again
26:55it's a 1963 S series Valiant
26:58and do you know where one exists at the moment
27:00have you got it on the radar
27:01I've always got my eye on the market for one
27:03okay
27:03always got his eye
27:05he's got it
27:05well let's hope that you get both of those here today
27:08but you're ready to get going
27:09I'm ready
27:09alright let's play the jackpot round
27:16Nadia
27:16time to put that jackpot counter in the machine
27:18push it back out
27:19there's your 20,000
27:20although given what we've just talked about Maldives cars
27:23you need as much as you can
27:24so to do that
27:25maybe
27:26drop zone 1's the place to go
27:27because there is still a double there
27:28and if you could push that double with the jackpot
27:30it would be 40,000
27:31so
27:32what are you going to do
27:33going for the double
27:34have you got a favourite zone
27:35can I ask
27:36yeah
27:37can I ask
27:37what do you think
27:38three
27:39three
27:40he thinks three
27:41Angelo says three
27:42I'm going to go with one
27:46it was a good suggestion
27:48nice suggestion Angelo
27:50and thank you very much
27:51but no
27:52light up drop zone 1
28:00sit down
28:01yes it does
28:03okay
28:03right in the middle
28:04it's going to shuffle itself around
28:06maybe left here
28:07there it goes
28:08so the double
28:09and the jackpot
28:11are touching
28:12which is nice
28:12as long as they can stay together
28:14keep touching
28:14plenty of money on the lower shelf
28:16it's all worth 100 when it comes over
28:17but for now
28:18we need to find the five categories
28:20that you're about to play
28:21they are
