06:25A bit of tactics there, John.
06:28Mmm, yes.
06:29Oh?
06:30Your tactics come into it, obviously.
06:32Okay, take a seat.
06:34Great, thank you.
06:35You're still in the game.
06:37We'll see you soon.
06:41Hi, Amy.
06:42Hi, Rebecca.
06:43So, Amy, your pass has been blocked.
06:46Okay.
06:46You need to answer this question correctly to stay in the game.
06:49Um, in 1957, Danish architect Jörn Utzen won a competition
06:55to design which iconic Australian building?
06:59Now, only one of these answers comes to mind
07:03as the correct one.
07:04Um, and I think it's maybe Australia's most iconic building,
07:08the Sydney Opera House.
07:09What can B?
07:10Lock in B, Sydney Opera House.
07:14B is correct.
07:15CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
07:21OK.
07:23Amy, you are nine questions away from $1 million.
07:28This question is worth $2,500.
07:31You have 30 seconds.
07:32Best of luck.
07:33Let's do it.
07:35What historic legal document
07:38limited King John of England's power in 1215?
07:43A, Magna Carta.
07:44B, the Constitution.
07:46C, the Bill of Rights.
07:48D, Acts of Union.
07:52History is not my strong suit.
07:55I think I can rule out the Constitution
07:58and the Bill of Rights.
08:01I would like to say A, Magna Carta,
08:03but I'm afraid that could be from an earlier time period,
08:07so I'm going to pass this on.
08:09Use your pass.
08:09Fair enough.
08:10Take a seat.
08:11You're still in the game.
08:12APPLAUSE
08:18Natalie, your pass is blocked.
08:21Yes.
08:22You do need to answer this question correctly
08:24to stay in the game.
08:26What historic legal document
08:28limited King John of England's power in 1215?
08:33Well, history in the year of 1215
08:38is definitely not my area of expertise.
08:43The Constitution sounded like a wise one to not consider.
08:4815 seconds.
08:48And I would have no idea what the Magna Carta is.
08:53Bill of Rights sounds interesting.
08:56So between A and C, let's lock in A, please.
09:00Lock in A, Magna Carta.
09:02Just a guess?
09:03A wild guess, yes.
09:06Natalie, it was not the Bill of Rights.
09:10It was A, the Magna Carta.
09:14Oh, my God!
09:19And that's my resume, expert in history.
09:24How are you feeling?
09:26Look, trivia's generally not my jam,
09:28but I'm always happy to have fun and give it a go,
09:30so I'm glad I got that.
09:31Trivia's not your jam?
09:33Oh, not really.
09:34Like, I just go to have fun
09:35and I just go with people that are good at trivia
09:38and that's what makes it fun.
09:39That's not me.
09:40Don't bring me in, OK?
09:41Natalie, you are now playing for $4,000.
09:44Your pass is still available.
09:47You have 30 seconds.
09:48Best of luck.
09:52Which of these boxing films
09:54won the Oscar for Best Picture?
09:56A, Raging Bull.
09:58B, Rocky.
10:00C, The Fighter.
10:01D, Ali.
10:03My husband would 100% know the answer to this question
10:06and he has talked about various movies.
10:09I've never heard of A and D,
10:11so let's rule them out.
10:13The Fighter certainly sounds like a boxing film,
10:17but I am kind of leaning towards B, Rocky,
10:22thinking that that might be one.
10:23Ten seconds.
10:27Let's rock, lock in B, Rocky.
10:29Lock in B, Rocky.
10:31B, Natalie.
10:34It was B, Rocky.
10:36Oh, my goodness.
10:37Great.
10:43Rocky, starring Sylvester Stallone,
10:46won the Oscar for Best Picture in 1977.
10:49Wow.
10:50Natalie, you are seven questions away from $1 million.
10:53This question is worth $6,000.
10:55Good luck.
10:57Which political leader famously said,
11:00the lady's not for turning?
11:03A, Jacinda Ardern.
11:04B, Julia Gillard.
11:06C, Margaret Thatcher.
11:08D, Hillary Clinton.
11:10Good news.
11:11I've heard of them all.
11:14Me too.
11:15Bad news.
11:16Bad to start.
11:17I might not know the answer.
11:20I would guess that it could have come from someone like Margaret Thatcher.
11:26Let's lock in C, Margaret Thatcher.
11:29Lock in C, Margaret Thatcher.
11:30You weren't tempted to use your pass?
11:32Yeah, I was.
11:34It's about having fun sometimes.
11:35I think some of the others might not agree with you about having fun,
11:38given that $1 million is on the line.
11:41Yeah, yeah, yeah.
11:42That's some serious stuff.
11:43Natalie, I can tell you it was not Julia Gillard.
11:49It was not Jacinda Ardern.
11:53It was, however, Margaret Thatcher sees for her.
11:58I just thought for a second it could have been Hillary Clinton.
12:01It sounded like it could be something she said.
12:05Natalie, six questions away from $1 million.
12:09Not a trivia buff.
12:11No, I could do six questions, maybe.
12:13Well, we'll put that to the test right after the break.
12:26Welcome back.
12:27We have a game on our hands.
12:29$1 million still in play.
12:32OK, Natalie, your pass is still available.
12:34Here is your question for $10,000.
12:39Typically, a prawn.
12:41Has how many legs?
12:43A, 6.
12:45B, 8.
12:46C, 10.
12:47D, 12.
12:49The word typically is nice.
12:52Oh, 8, 10, 12.
12:54I mean, there's so many options.
12:55Favourite number is 11 between 10 and 12.
12:58Let's lock in D, 12, please.
13:00Lock in D, 12.
13:02Natalie, typically, a prawn has how many legs?
13:07It does not have six legs.
13:09It does not have eight legs.
13:12It does, however, have ten legs.
13:14It was C.
13:16Oh, you're lucky.
13:17It was really fun having you on.
13:19Thank you so much.
13:19Thanks for playing.
13:20No worries.
13:28Kieran.
13:29Hi, Rebecca.
13:30Welcome to the hot seat.
13:32Tell me about this ghostly encounter.
13:34My brother and I were walking, and it was about 1am.
13:38We were in a little sleepy suburb, and I just look over to my left, the other side of the
13:42road, and there's this old lady dressed in just full white, like glowing under a street
13:48lamp.
13:48She looks at me, locks with my eyes, and she just starts walking.
13:51She floats across the road behind me.
13:54I've, like, stopped in my tracks.
13:56My brother stopped in his tracks.
13:57Getting goosebumps.
13:58Yeah.
13:59You know, I don't believe in ghosts, but maybe I'll say that one.
14:03I didn't.
14:03You didn't believe in ghosts, but maybe you do now.
14:06But after that one, yeah, absolutely.
14:08Well, your pass is still available.
14:10You are now playing for $10,000.
14:12You have 30 seconds.
14:13Good luck.
14:14Thanks.
14:16U.S. author Jack Kerouac is most commonly associated with which subcultural movement?
14:23A. Punk.
14:24B. Mod.
14:26C. Beat generation.
14:28D. New age.
14:30I'd rule out punk and mod straight away.
14:35I'm fairly certain he was, you know, in that beat generation, I would say.
14:43I don't think it's new age.
14:47I'm just doing all the beat poetry.
14:49I'm going to lock in C, beat generation.
14:52Lock in C, beat generation.
14:55Kieran, C is correct.
15:01Awesome.
15:05Getting closer to $250,000.
15:08Only four questions away.
15:10Here is your question for $20,000.
15:14You now have 45 seconds to answer.
15:18Due to an uncleared sample, which songwriting duo were awarded the royalties for the Verve's
15:25bittersweet symphony?
15:37I don't think it has anything to do with the Beatles or Simon and Garfunkel.
15:42I actually think I read about this.
15:45And I think it was a re-recording of a Rolling Stones song.
15:50So you lock in A, Jagger and Richards.
15:54Lock in A, Jagger and Richards.
15:58A is correct.
16:07Kieran, you're three questions away from a quarter of a million dollars.
16:11This next question is worth $50,000.
16:13You have 45 seconds.
16:16Which of these island nations is furthest in distance from Canberra, Australia?
16:23A, Fiji.
16:24B, Vanuatu.
16:26C, Samoa.
16:27D, Solomon Islands.
16:30I'm just trying to think, Solomon Islands, Fiji's up north from Canberra, Samoa, Vanuatu.
16:40I think Samoa's a lot closer to America, USA.
16:46Could I lock in C, Samoa?
16:50Lock in C, Samoa with a question mark.
16:54Yeah, lock it in.
16:56Oh, I've locked it in.
16:59You locked it in with a question mark.
17:01So it's kind of a guess.
17:02Yep.
17:03Kieran, three questions away from $250,000.
17:08You've locked in C, Samoa.
17:10And we will find out the answer right after the break.
17:14Don't go anywhere.
17:23Welcome back.
17:24We have a nail-biting game on our hands.
17:28Kieran is three questions away from a quarter of a million dollars.
17:33Before the break, I asked Kieran, which of these island nations is furthest in distance from Canberra, Australia?
17:39You locked in C, Samoa.
17:44Kieran, if you had said Vanuatu, you would have been wrong.
17:48If you had said Fiji, you would have been wrong.
17:55It was C, Samoa.
17:58Great.
18:01Wow.
18:04Well, I can travel there now.
18:06I was just saying if I was wrong, I'm never going there.
18:08Never going to Samoa?
18:09Well, if it was wrong.
18:11If it was another one.
18:12Well, you got it right.
18:13What would you do with a quarter of a million dollars?
18:15Um, oh, I was always saying it would be great to maybe make a movie.
18:20Make a movie?
18:21Yeah.
18:22I know an actor starring a, you know, middle-aged blonde.
18:25Just saying.
18:26Well, if I get the quarter of a million, I'll...
18:27Give me a call.
18:28Yeah, yeah, yeah.
18:29Two questions away from $250,000.
18:33This next question is worth $100,000.
18:3745 seconds.
18:39Best of luck.
18:40Thanks.
18:42In 2002, what name did astronomers give the off-white hue
18:47calculated to be the average colour of the universe?
18:52A, astronomical cotton.
18:54B, cosmic latte.
18:56C, vanilla milkshake.
18:58D, universal beige.
19:01Beige.
19:0245 seconds.
19:04Um, off-white makes me think cotton or milkshake.
19:13I would think universal beige and latte are a bit more brown spectrum, I guess.
19:21Um, vanilla milkshake doesn't really sound like one that would do.
19:31Maybe astronomical cotton, half-white.
19:35Ten seconds.
19:36Lock it in A, astronomical cotton.
19:40Lock in A, astronomical cotton.
19:43I guess.
19:45Yeah.
19:48Kieran, it was B, cosmic latte.
19:51Okay.
19:51You've been a wonderful contestant.
19:53It just wasn't your night.
19:54Thank you so much for playing.
19:56Best of luck.
19:56Oh, it was a great time.
20:03Bob.
20:04Hi, Bec.
20:05You're a disability support worker.
20:06I am, yes.
20:07I run, uh, drama classes and music classes for people with disabilities.
20:11So, yeah, we just have a lot of fun and, um, put on some shows and, and just, yeah.
20:17Oh, you're a good man, Bob.
20:19Here is the final question for $100,000.
20:30You have 45 seconds.
20:32Good luck, Bob.
20:48Okay, um, I know red-bellied black and eastern brown are Australian snakes and I think maybe
20:56the lowland copperhead.
20:57I didn't think the common death order was an Australian snake, um.
21:05Egg-laying snake.
21:06Egg-laying snake.
21:08Um, so, I feel like I'm literally, literally, between.
21:1320 seconds.
21:14A, B and C. Um, I feel like, I've seen red-bellied blacks and I've seen eastern browns.
21:22Um, I feel like they're sort of similar.
21:23But, so, I just feel I want to lock in C, lowland copperhead.
21:30Lock in C, lowland copperhead.
21:34Bob.
21:36Which of these is an Australian species of egg-laying snake?
21:40It was not a common death order.
21:43It was not a red-bellied black.
21:46It wasn't eastern brown, it was B.
21:50You don't go home empty-handed.
21:52You still take away the $1,000.
21:54So, thanks for being a wonderful guest.
21:56Yeah, great.
