00:00Uno de nuestros campeonatos podría irse con un $20,000 jackpot,
00:03pero para hacer eso, tendrán tener que conquistar esta magnífica máquina.
00:07¿Quién tiene el dinero?
00:08Yo soy Todd Woodbridge.
00:09Vamos a lanzar los counters y playa Tipping Point.
00:31Hola, everybody.
00:32Welcome to Tipping Point.
00:33These three contestants are ready to take on our machine,
00:36so let's meet them.
00:37I'm Adam.
00:38I'm a teaching student from Somerville,
00:39and if I win the jackpot,
00:40I'm going to take my dad to Fiji for his 60th birthday.
00:43Hi, I'm Jenny.
00:44I'm a retired shopping centre manager from Melbourne,
00:46and I once called the police at 3am
00:48because I had a possum break into my house.
00:52Hi, I'm Tyne, a fuel tanker driver from Seabrook in Melbourne,
00:56and I once, 28 years ago,
00:58delivered my third child in the hospital
00:59when the doctors decided to leave the room.
01:03And Tyne, you've got your lovely wife here and your daughter.
01:07My wife, Jackie.
01:08Yep.
01:09At 35 years, and my daughter, Bryony.
01:11Jackie, let me ask you this.
01:13How were you with that?
01:15Obviously, you did all right.
01:16I didn't have a choice.
01:17Yeah.
01:17The nurse left, and I said,
01:20the baby's coming.
01:21It's on its way.
01:21He was there, and I said,
01:23you better get down there, mate.
01:24It's on you.
01:26And how did you cope with it?
01:28Tyne, obviously, well.
01:29It seemed to be all natural.
01:30Took it all in your stride.
01:31I went sort of back to my, you know,
01:32doctoring days and sort of,
01:35yeah, just said,
01:36can you stop screaming unnecessarily,
01:38and I'll deliver the baby.
01:39So, it was all done.
01:40I love it.
01:41And tell you what else I love.
01:42I love your shirt.
01:43It's a great shirt.
01:44Hey?
01:45Where'd you find that?
01:46We did order it.
01:47We were going to put,
01:48we had a picture of myself or you,
01:50so we went with the prettier one.
01:51We went with the one with hair.
01:53Yeah.
01:55I hope it brings you luck today, Tyne.
01:57Great having you on the show.
01:58Thanks.
01:59And Jenny, lovely to have you.
02:00Thank you.
02:01But tell us,
02:01did you actually think you had a real intruder
02:03or what was going on?
02:04No, I was actually asleep,
02:06and I woke up,
02:06I just had a feeling there was something in the room,
02:09and there was a possum sitting on the chair
02:10looking at me.
02:11Oh.
02:12And I had no idea how it got in,
02:15but by the time I got it out the back door,
02:17it looked back at me as if to say,
02:18I am never coming back a year again.
02:21Oh, well,
02:22hope it all goes well for you today, Jenny.
02:24No surprises here.
02:25Thank you.
02:25One hopes.
02:26And Adam,
02:27lovely to have you.
02:28Thank you.
02:28Take Dad to Fiji.
02:30Yeah, so,
02:31we've never left the country,
02:32or I haven't,
02:32and my siblings haven't,
02:33so head over there,
02:35have a bit of fun.
02:35That sounds great.
02:36Now,
02:37when you talk about siblings,
02:38the viewers at home are going,
02:41there's someone else behind you.
02:42I'm seeing double.
02:42You're seeing double.
02:43So,
02:44one of those siblings is your twin
02:45that's with you today.
02:46Twin Daniel.
02:47Hello, Daniel.
02:49Daniel,
02:49how are you?
02:50Lovely to have you.
02:50Thank you, Todd.
02:51So,
02:52is he the brighter one,
02:53or you,
02:53or how's this going to work?
02:55Brighter in different ways.
02:56Ah,
02:57okay.
02:57Well,
02:58if it doesn't go well,
02:59Adam,
02:59at least we know we can switch you out,
03:01hey?
03:01That's it.
03:02It's a strategy.
03:03All right.
03:03Well,
03:03best of luck to all three of you.
03:05Time to get the game underway.
03:06It's time to play
03:07Bank Builder.
03:14And in our Bank Builder round,
03:15it's your chance to start making
03:17some serious money.
03:18Every counter that you can push over
03:19the tipping point,
03:20$100 will be added into your bank.
03:22Now,
03:22you each start with three counters,
03:24and if you buzz in and answer correctly,
03:26you can choose to play one of your counters
03:27into the machine,
03:28or you could pass
03:29and ask one of your opponents
03:30to play one of theirs instead.
03:32If you answer incorrectly,
03:34well,
03:34don't answer within three seconds.
03:36I'll have to take a counter away from you.
03:38In the machine,
03:39you'll see the two double counters
03:40on the top shelf there today.
03:42Push those over to double the value of your drop,
03:44along with our mystery counters,
03:45and if you can push those over,
03:46you'll be going away with a great prize.
03:48So we're all set.
03:49Hands on buzzers, everyone.
03:50Here comes the first question.
03:52Prior to politics,
03:54which Australian Prime Minister
03:55set a Guinness World Record
03:56for drinking a yard of...
03:58Tyne?
03:59Bob Hawke.
03:59Indeed, yes.
04:00A yard of beer within 12 seconds.
04:03What would you like to do?
04:04Where would you like to deliver
04:05the first counter today, Tyne?
04:07I think we'll go
04:09number one, please.
04:10Light her up.
04:18Yes.
04:19Lines up nicely
04:20with the silver
04:20and the double on top.
04:22Come on.
04:24Yes, get down there.
04:26That's it.
04:30A couple will get you started, Tyne.
04:32Thank you.
04:32Two hundred will go up
04:34and into our machine.
04:35And let's transfer it from there.
04:36We'll put that into your bank.
04:37So some nice early money
04:39to get things settled.
04:40Phew.
04:42Okay, on to our second question.
04:44The slang term delulu
04:45is an abbreviation of what word?
04:48Adam?
04:48Delusional.
04:49Correct, yes.
04:51Right, Adam,
04:52where are you off to?
04:54I reckon I'll go drop zone three.
04:56Thanks, Todd.
04:56Okay, light up three
04:57for the first time.
05:04Down quickly,
05:05but again,
05:06lines up nicely for you, Adam.
05:12Yeah.
05:12Yeah.
05:19League changes hands early.
05:20Three over the tipping point
05:22for you, Adam,
05:22to get started.
05:23So 300 goes up.
05:24Thank you.
05:25Let's take it from the machine,
05:26put that in the bank,
05:26and you've got a one-counter lead
05:27over time.
05:30All right,
05:31on to our next question.
05:32The Broadway musical
05:33A Funny Thing Happened
05:34on the Way to the Forum
05:35is set in which ancient empire?
05:39Jenny?
05:40Roman?
05:40Correct.
05:41Nice work.
05:42Everybody off the mark.
05:44Let's see what you can do, Jenny.
05:45You want to play?
05:46You want to pass?
05:47No, I'll play
05:48and I'll go for drop zone two, please.
05:50Let's light up two
05:51for the first time.
05:52Going all the way
05:53through the machine early.
05:54Thank you.
06:00Now,
06:01not quite as lined up,
06:03but you get it off anyway.
06:05Nice.
06:10That's a little unlucky.
06:12One just slips out from underneath,
06:14doesn't pull anything with it,
06:15but at least you've got some money to start.
06:17$100.
06:18Put it into your bank,
06:19and everybody
06:20with two counters left to play,
06:22and a nice, tight game early on.
06:24The next question.
06:26Developed in 1985

06:29Severin Sjosted,
06:31are the meatballs

06:34Swedish meatballs?
06:35Are the meatballs
06:36sold in which international
06:37furniture store?
06:39Ikea.
06:39That would be Ikea.
06:43Tyne,
06:43I've got to take that counter
06:44away from you.
06:45Sorry.
06:45Just got in a little early there.
06:47One counter left for you to play.
06:49On to our next question.
06:50In TV's Doctor Who,
06:52the exterior of the classic
06:53police box TARDIS
06:55is primarily what?
06:56Adam?
06:57Blue.
06:58It is.
06:58What colour?
07:02Drop zone two.
07:04Thanks, Todd.
07:04Studying it hard there, Adam.
07:06Light her up.
07:14Now what?
07:15Yeah, maybe.
07:22Just have a look at the one
07:23that's leaning.
07:24It might still slide.
07:29Sticking to it.
07:30Bad luck.
07:31Okay.
07:32That keeps things interesting
07:34in terms of the score.
07:35Adam, you've got one
07:36counter left to play.
07:37Still got a one-counter lead.
07:39Tyne's got one counter to play.
07:40Jenny, you've got two.
07:41Okay.
07:42Our next question.
07:44The name of which other
07:45major Japanese city
07:46is an anagram of Kyoto?
07:49Jenny.
07:50Osaka.
07:51Tokyo.
07:52Oh, wrong one.
07:53Yeah.
07:54All right, Jenny,
07:55you've got to take that away.
07:56So now this is even better
07:57in terms of excitement,
07:59in terms of score.
08:00You guys don't seem excited,
08:01but I am.
08:03We're excited.
08:04All right,
08:05everybody with their final counter.
08:07Just one and two counters
08:08separating the three of you.
08:10Iceberg and Just Joey
08:12are popular varieties
08:13of which thorny,
08:13fragrant flower?
08:17Adam.
08:18I was going to say lettuce.
08:20No.
08:20It would be a rose, Adam.
08:22A fragrant flower.
08:24All right, Adam,
08:25I've got to take that last one
08:26away from you.
08:27Unfortunately,
08:28you're out of counter,
08:29so you need to sit back,
08:30see what Jenny and Tyne
08:31can do with their final counter.
08:32Last two questions.
08:34An icon of World War II,
08:36the Supermarine Spitfire
08:38was what form of military vehicle?
08:40Jenny?
08:41Jeep.
08:41It was an aeroplane.
08:43Oh, it was.
08:45The Supermarine Spitfire.
08:47All right,
08:47I've got to take that one
08:48away from you, Jenny.
08:49Oh, dear.
08:49So you sit back,
08:51just two behind Adam,
08:52so he's still well
08:53and truly in it.
08:53And Tyne,
08:54just you and me.
08:56Pressure's on.
08:56No need to buzz in.
08:58Do need to give me an answer.
08:59Got three seconds to do that,
09:00so good luck
09:01with the final one here.
09:03Australian Olympian,
09:04Michelle Timms,
09:04is a member of the
09:05International Hall of Fame
09:06in which team ball sport?
09:09Volleyball?
09:11Basketball.
09:13That's a foul, Tyne.
09:16It had to be a ball of some sort.
09:17It was a ball.
09:18I've got to take that counter
09:20away from you.
09:21And at the end
09:22of our bank builder round,
09:23well, we didn't do much.
09:25Adam's got the lead
09:26with 300,
09:26Jenny's got 100,
09:27Tyne's got 200.
09:28You're all well and truly in it
09:30as we get set to play
09:31Quickfire right after this break.
09:47Welcome back, everyone.
09:48Adam, Jenny and Tyne.
09:49There's a battle to come
09:50here at the moment.
09:51We're going to find out
09:52who's going to stay in the game.
09:53To do that,
09:54we need to play Quickfire.
09:58Quickfire.
09:59And in Quickfire,
10:01you'll each have 30 seconds
10:02to answer as many questions
10:03as you possibly can.
10:04Every correct answer
10:05gets you a counter
10:06to play into the machine.
10:07But of course,
10:08the player with the lowest score
10:09at the end of this round
10:10will be leaving the game.
10:11Now, Adam,
10:12you hung on to the lead there
10:13with 300 in the bank.
10:14One in front of Tyne,
10:16two in front of Jenny.
10:17So it's still anybody's game.
10:18But you have the advantage
10:20of playing first here
10:22if you would like to.
10:23Depends on how you see the machine.
10:25I reckon it's close to paying out,
10:27so I'll go first.
10:27OK, good luck to you.
10:28Thank you.
10:30So I'll put 30 seconds
10:31on the clock, Adam.
10:32Yep.

11:12You like a bit of entertainment.
11:13Is that you
11:14or is that Daniel?
11:15That's me, yeah.
11:15So Chorus Line, yeah.
11:16Yeah, so big into musicals
11:18and performing,
11:19so love all that kind of stuff.
11:20Right, I know.
11:20So that was right
11:21in your wheelhouse.
11:21Most 21-year-olds
11:23wouldn't get a Chorus Line,
11:24would they, Danny?
11:25No.
11:26No.
11:26Absolutely not.
11:27Anyway, he got it.
11:28Awesome.
11:28Right, let's get
11:29four counters
11:29into the machine, Adam.
11:30Where are you going to start?
11:32We'll go two first, Todd.
11:34Thank you.
11:34Light up job zone two.
11:43Oh.
11:44Right, that might go
11:46into that little gap,
11:47but you might still sneak up.
11:49Oh, hello.
11:50I thought you were going
11:51to sneak something off,
11:52not that many.
11:54Well done.
11:55I'm happy with that.
11:57Yeah.
11:58That just changed things
11:59in a hurry, didn't it?
12:00Sure did.
12:01Eight over the tipping point
12:02gives you 800.
12:03Yeah.
12:04Amazing.
12:06Yeah.
12:06You said it was ready
12:07to pay out.
12:08I mean, you've still got
12:08three more counters
12:09to put in, Adam.
12:10Two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two, two,
12:14two, two, two, three, two.
12:15Really?
12:15I've got zone four.
12:16So, before I light it up,
12:18Usually twins are in sync
12:20They are, but sometimes you can be wrong
12:24Daniel's going 2-2 and you go, I'm going 4
12:27So I'll light it up
12:28Awesome, thank you
12:37This is the first time we've been here
12:42And if it doesn't line up perfectly, that can happen
12:45But we're in there now
12:47Two more
12:50We'll go with two again, Todd
12:52Okay, switching
12:55See if Daniel was correct
13:03That's a rider
13:05Winona's appeared
13:09Slams down hard
13:10And jumps on top
13:12So you've got one more left here, Adam
13:14Two
13:15Four
13:26That should be fine this time
13:28I think
13:29Yeah
13:40You had a great drop and another little push, but I think it's riding
13:43Yes it is
13:44So another half a dozen coming your way
13:47Six hundred to go into the machine
13:49Transfer it from there and add it into your bank
13:52And you've got one thousand seven hundred
13:54Thank you
13:54Very well done
13:58So tiny, did a bit of cleaning up on the tipping point then
14:00Yeah, he's destroyed it big time
14:02Yeah, oh well there's still plenty there, still game on
14:05It's your choice though if you want to play now
14:07Yeah, I'll play now, yep

16:17I'm after anything at the moment
16:18Righto
16:19You've got to get after time
16:21I know
16:21That's what you've got to do
16:22You're four counters behind
16:23There's still plenty of money in there
16:24You ready to give it a crack?
16:26I'm ready
16:2630 seconds is on the clock for you
16:28And your time starts now

17:02Tolstoy
17:03Chekhov it would have been
17:05Very, very solid, Jenny
17:08Maybe you've done enough to give yourself a chance to get the tie or better
17:12You've got three to put in
17:15They're telling me drop zone three, so three
17:18Light it up
17:21Four to tie, Jenny
17:29It's okay, I think
17:30It's lined up where there's counters on the edge
17:33Oh, yes
17:34Come on, come on, come on
17:36Push them down
17:40Two
17:41Two hundred goes in
17:43You're halfway to tying
17:44Three would get you through now
17:45Three
17:46Three
17:47Three
17:48Three
17:49Three
17:49Three
17:50Okay, drop zone three again, please
17:53Light her up
18:00Oh, I don't think that's going to do it
18:03It'll wrap around to the left and I think you'll get it off
18:06There you go
18:08Come on, put them down, put them down
18:14You've got yourself another three and that'll get you through
18:18So now you're chasing Adam
18:20Five hundred sits in the machine, you've got one more to play
18:22Drop zone three again
18:24Light up drop zone three
18:30Okay
18:33Now I know you've been after a mystery
18:34I'm not sure you've got enough there to be able to get that off
18:37Maybe not
18:38I don't think that's
18:39Come on, push them forward
18:44So by the skin of your teeth, you're safe, Jenny
18:47We'll take five hundred out of the machine
18:48We'll put it in and you'll have a total of six hundred
18:53At the end of our quickfire round
18:55Great playing by Adam to get one thousand seven hundred
18:57Jenny's got six hundred and Tyne
18:59Well, you're not leaving empty handed
19:00But we have found your tipping points
19:02Thanks, Todd
19:03Thanks, Todd
19:05Tyne, it's been great having you
19:06And that shirt, that's already a winner as far as I'm concerned
19:10Had a good time with us?
19:11Great, fantastic
19:12Lovely meeting you
19:13And it means that after the break, Adam and Jenny
19:16You two are going to go head to head
19:17To live and count a difference at the moment
19:19Can Adam hang on or will Jenny get over the top of him?
19:22We'll find out next on Tipping Point
19:37Welcome back everybody
19:38Adam and Jenny, you two are about to go head to head
19:40We'll find out in a moment who's going to go on to play for the $20,000
19:43Before we do that though
19:44Jenny, it's great to have you
19:46Thank you
19:46Retired shopping centre manager
19:48Correct
19:48That's taken you actually all around the world
19:50Tell us about it
19:51It has, I've been very fortunate
19:52I've lived in Malaysia twice
19:54Working in shopping centres
19:56It's the last time I was there for eight years
19:58Wow
19:58So it's fantastic
19:59It's just a great country and a fabulous experience
20:02We could travel off to other countries close by
20:05And you've got your partner with us today
20:06You've got Chris
20:07G'day Chris
20:08How are you
20:09What do you want to do with the money if you can get over the top of Adam?
20:12I'd really like to go to South Africa
20:13Oh yes
20:14And go to Karuga and back up through Dubai if we can
20:17It's on my bucket list to do that
20:19It'd be really lovely
20:20Well you do have work to do because you're 11 counters behind at the moment
20:23I know
20:24And we have a chat to Adam
20:26A student teacher at the moment in placement
20:29Is that right Adam?
20:30Yes it is right
20:31So I'm currently at Monash
20:33And I've currently been studying teaching there since I was secondary school
20:38So I'm nearly in year 12 that's what I wanted to do
20:40Yeah fantastic
20:41Now very different to Daniel your brother that's sitting in the stands there
20:46Daniel what are you doing?
20:48Engineering is absolutely what I'm doing
20:50Are you into arts and stuff as well or not?
20:53No not at all
20:54I don't get normally like inseparable
20:56Are you two like that though?
20:58We are in different ways
20:59But probably what we focus on in terms of academics and hobbies we're very different
21:03But no we are very closely bonded otherwise
21:05And at school could the teachers tell you apart?
21:08They could definitely
21:09In the earlier years it was a lot harder
21:11But when we got towards the end it was definitely they could do it
21:14And you did mention that you love your drama and all of the like
21:17And you work a little bit in that
21:18Tell me about the escape room stuff
21:20I work in an escape room
21:22So we have lots of different sort of themed rooms
21:24And then I'll basically run the rooms for the people
21:27And make sure they can get out in 60 minutes
21:29Have you two swapped?
21:35What makes you say that Todd?
21:40I've seen different mannerisms here
21:44You have
21:47Get out
21:52In you go
21:53Thank you
21:54Now
21:56Stand side by side
21:58There is a difference
22:00But it took me a little while to get it
22:03Well played fellas
22:04Thank you
22:06Up you go Daniel
22:07Well done guys
22:09Well done
22:12Such fun Todd
22:13Such fun
22:14Alright well
22:15Are you two ready to get going again?
22:17Ready
22:18Thank you
22:18Alright
22:18Eleven counter difference
22:20Let's play head to head
22:26In our head to head round
22:28You each get two questions
22:29If you get your question correct
22:30You get to play the counter into the machine
22:32But if you get it wrong
22:33Your opponent will steal it
22:34And if you're unsure of your question
22:36You can pass it to your opponent
22:38Not to your brother
22:41Alright
22:41Now you're going to have the first question Adam
22:44You've got the lead
22:44And here it is
22:46Businessman and car designer
22:48Ferruccio Lamborghini
22:50Begin in 1948
22:52By repurposing military machinery
22:54To make what agricultural vehicles?
22:57Pass or play?
22:59I'm going to be honest
22:59I would have no idea Todd
23:01So
23:01I'm going to
23:04Pass
23:07To make what agricultural vehicle?
23:10I'm going to have a little bit of a guess on this one
23:12Because I actually think I heard about this recently
23:16And I hope I'm right
23:17A tractor
23:18Jenny thinks she's heard
23:20It's a tractor
23:24And it is
23:30Surprise
23:31Eleven behind
23:32It's a good chance
23:33It's a steal
23:33You're going to have to work your way around here
23:35To try to find some more counters
23:37Close the game
23:38Three
23:38Three
23:39Three
23:39Three
23:40I think I'm going to go
23:42Three
23:44Light up
23:45Three
23:52Oh no no no no
23:56Just got to go softly
23:59Slides on top again
24:01And a rider
24:03And I don't think anything will come up
24:04No
24:05Just chases on
24:07So
24:07Tractor for nothing
24:08You didn't get the most out of that opportunity
24:11Right
24:11Alright
24:11But the gap didn't widen
24:13And you've got the next question Jenny
24:14By law
24:15What is the minimum age required
24:17To become President of the United States?
24:20Pass or play?
24:21I think I might pass this
24:23Because I'm not entirely sure
24:24I've got a clue
24:26But I think I'm going to pass it
24:28Adam
24:29What do you think it might be?
24:31I know like the legal drinking age is 21
24:33So thinking around there
24:35I'm going to go middle of the 20s
24:37We'll go 25
24:37Is it 25 Adam?
24:43It's actually 35
24:45Oh
24:45Yeah
24:46So it's a little older than maybe you'd think
24:48I actually thought it was going to be much younger
24:50Yeah
24:50That one's done
24:51So Jenny
24:52Good pass
24:53You've got another chance
24:53You'll need to find some this time
24:55I do
24:55I do
24:55You're going to make the most of the opportunity
24:56I'll go drop zone three again
24:58Light her up
24:59Drop zone three
25:04That'll be better
25:05Come on
25:06Come on
25:07Push them down
25:08Push it
25:08Push it
25:09Push it
25:11Oh
25:11Come on
25:13Drop them
25:14Drop them
25:15Oh no
25:16Well done
25:19Okay the gaps tighten
25:21That was seven
25:22And a very good drop indeed
25:23$700 goes up
25:25Thank you
25:25We'll move it from there
25:26Put that in the bank Jenny
25:28And when you come back after the break
25:29You're only going to be four behind
25:31Can Adam hang on?
25:32It's going to be a good finish to this round
25:34Stay with us on Tipping Point
25:48Welcome back everyone to Tipping Point
25:49Adam and Jenny
25:50The game continues
25:51And well done Jenny
25:52You brought it down to four counters
25:54Thank you
25:54But Adam
25:55Here comes your next question
25:57With events in tennis
25:59Sailing
26:00Croquet
26:00Equestrian
26:01And golf
26:02Women first competed at the modern Olympics
26:04In what year?
26:07Pass or play?
26:08I am going to pass again
26:10Think of it as an opportunity Jenny
26:15Thank you Adam
26:16I'd like you to repeat the question
26:18If you would please
26:18Yes
26:19With events in tennis
26:20Sailing
26:21Croquet
26:23Equestrian
26:23And golf
26:24Women first competed at the modern Olympics
26:26In what year?
26:28Gosh
26:29I'll say 1956
26:32Melbourne
26:33Melbourne
26:341956
26:35I think it's wrong
26:36What would you have gone with
26:37If you had to pick one Adam?
26:39Probably the 60s
26:40Yeah
26:40Somewhere in the 60s
26:41I think I'm a bit early
26:42Yeah
26:42Has Jenny got it with 1956?
26:48Nice
26:49You've got to go back
26:50To 1900
26:52Wow
26:53Gosh
26:54Yeah
26:54Paris
26:55It was
26:56Gee whiz
26:56Some of those
26:56I wouldn't have thought they were playing in those days
26:58Wow
26:58Well probably the giveaway is croquet
27:00Yes
27:01True
27:01My grandmother played that
27:02They don't play a lot of croquet anymore
27:04No
27:04Alright
27:05Well Jenny
27:06Not to be your counter
27:07Adam
27:07Here's your chance now
27:11Let's go
27:12One
27:13Thanks Todd
27:13Light up job zone one
27:23That's lining up nicely
27:26No no
27:36That hard work that you did Jenny with your drop just got wiped away with half a dozen
27:41Another 600 going into Adam's bank
27:44Let's take it out of the machine
27:45Thank you
27:45Put it in there
27:46And Adam you've got $2,300
27:47Thank you
27:50So Jenny
27:50You've got to find 10
27:52I think I'm in trouble
27:53Might be
27:54But
27:55There's still a mystery there
27:56Yes
27:57And you've still got to get the counter anyway
27:58Yes
27:58So here's the final question
28:01In 2024
28:02Dua Lipa
28:03And which rapper
28:04Both had hits titled
28:05Houdini
28:07Oh jeez
28:08Pass or play
28:09Couldn't be any easier for me
28:11Yeah
28:12Um
28:13Look I
28:14Seriously think I'm going to have to pass
28:16And I hate doing it
28:17Because I've got a horrible feeling Adam might know this
28:20Adam
28:21I have a feeling it's possibly Eminem
28:25Eminem
28:26I hope you're possibly wrong
28:30Let's find out
28:32Is it Eminem?
28:36There it is
28:39Played well Adam
28:40Thank you
28:41Congratulations to you
28:42And where do you want to put the final counter?
28:45We'll go three Todd
28:46Go for that mystery later on
28:54Whoa
28:57Here we go
28:58Can you get off the top here?
28:59Yeah
29:01Happy with that
29:08And a really nice way to finish the round for you Adam
29:11Two more
29:12We'll give you another $200
29:13And when it goes up and into the bank
29:15It will give you $2500
29:17Cool
29:18Yeah
29:18Good result
29:19But of course you've got the mystery counter
29:21And thanks to Victorinox
29:22Start every trip right
29:24With an Aerox luggage set
29:25Including a super durable hard side case
29:28And carry on
29:28It's valued at over $1500
29:31Adam
29:32Thank you Todd
29:32Thank you
29:35If we manage to get the speed
29:36They don't go to good use
29:37There you go
29:38Exactly
29:39And so at the end of our round
29:41With Adam having $2500 in the bank
29:44Jenny you played well
29:45Couldn't quite hang on
29:46And it means we've found your tipping points
29:48Thanks Todd
29:48Thank you
29:49Well done
29:51Very nice to meet you
29:52Thank you
29:53You too Todd
29:53And hope that you get back
29:54Or get over
29:55I should say
29:56To South Africa
29:57For that trip
29:58So too
29:58Thank you very much
29:59Lovely having you on the show
30:00And Adam
30:00Well
30:01I don't know if I've got Adam
30:02I don't know if I've got Daniel
30:03But one of you
30:04Is going to play for this
30:06The Jackpot Counter
30:08It's worth $20,000
30:10We'd love to get you and your dad
30:11On a trip to Fiji
30:12And we'll find out after the break
30:14If you can make that happen
30:32Still trying to get over it Adam
30:33I'm still trying to get over
30:35Being taken for a ride by Daniel
30:36You've done very well
30:38Played brilliantly
30:39$2500 as you're sitting in the bank
30:41Thank you
30:43Happy with that
30:43And have you seen my double
30:46Have a look at that
30:47You're not the only one with a twin
30:48Hey
30:49You've put it on me
30:50Hey
30:52Have a look at that
30:53All I've got to do is stand here like this
30:54With the Jackpot Counter
30:55I'm not going to know who's who
30:56You won't know the one
30:57That one will be a bit stiff when it comes out
30:59But anyway
31:00If you do go all the way
31:01Fiji
31:02Your dad's never been overseas
31:03Have you done any travel?
31:05I've been overseas
31:06Dad has been overseas
31:07But we
31:08Yeah
31:08As the siblings and the kids
31:10We've never been overseas
31:11So that would be pretty cool
31:12Very cool
31:12Alright
31:13Well the Jackpot awaits
31:14$20,000
31:15Who knows
31:16Maybe even more
31:16You ready to give it a go?
31:18Absolutely
31:18Let's play the Jackpot round then
31:24Alright
31:24I'm going to ask you in a moment
31:25To put it into the machine
31:26Push it back out
31:27There's your 20
31:28Unless you want to try
31:29And get it out
31:30With one of the doubles
31:31The obvious choice would be
31:32The one that's on top
31:33And drop zone 1
31:34I've got the other double
31:36To maybe make more money
31:37Sitting on the lower shelf
31:38In drop zone 4
31:39What do you want to do?
31:42I might
31:45Because there's more counters
31:46On the bottom
31:46I might get a bit of extra money
31:47With that
31:48And the double
31:48Just in case
31:49I reckon I'm going to go
31:50With 4
31:51Okay then
31:53I'm going to light it up
31:54And let's see if we can
31:55Get it into a nice position
31:56Yes
32:02Okay
32:02I feel like that
32:03Main thing is that it's flat
32:05Yeah
32:11Okay
32:11Everything worth 100
32:16Nothing there yet
32:17But it's all
32:18Have a look at how thick
32:19And low that shadow is
32:20It's ready to come over
32:21We need to get a couple of pushes
32:23For that to happen
32:24So let's go to the categories
32:25Find out the five that you're going to play today
32:27Literature
32:28Food and drink
32:29Sport
32:29Sci-fi
32:30And political pets
32:33Pretty happy with most of those
32:36Sport's probably going to be my weakest
32:37I reckon
32:37Alright
32:38Now you can play one, two or three
32:39Of course the more you play for
32:41The harder the question will be
32:42But it doesn't seem to have bothered you today
32:43No
32:44I reckon we'll go
32:44We'll start at the top
32:45So we'll go top to bottom
32:46I reckon
32:46And are we going to play for how many?
32:48Three
32:49Three for literature
32:50Three thanks Todd
32:50Yep
32:53Okay
32:53Let's see what we can do here
32:55Good luck
32:55First question Adam
32:57Published in 2000
32:58What is the title of Canadian journalist Malcolm Gladwell's best-selling debut book?
33:04Is it The Bank Builder?
33:06Is it The Tipping Point?
33:08Or is it The Jackpot Temptation?
33:10I love the answers
33:11I've never heard of Malcolm Gladwell
33:14So I'd have no idea
33:15Okay
33:16Bit of a shot in the dark
33:17I'm going to think though about money
33:21And building money in a bank
33:23Having a good bank account
33:24So I reckon I'll go with The Bank Builder
33:28Thanks Todd
33:29Let's light up The Bank Builder
33:30Great titles
33:32But have you picked the right one with The Bank Builder?
33:37Oh
33:38It's The Tipping Point
33:39Right
33:40Right where we are at the moment
33:41Absolutely
33:42Okay
33:42That's a shame
33:44That's alright
33:44That's alright
33:44Never mind
33:45So if we go back to the categories
33:47Working our way down
33:48Food and drink
33:49I reckon we've got to go for three
33:50I think so
33:51It's the only way we
33:51Need as many counters as you can
33:53Yep
33:55A reference to the number of ingredients
33:58The name of which drink
33:59Is thought to derive from
34:00The Sanskrit word for five
34:04Punch
34:05Mojito
34:06Or sangria
34:07I think punch
34:09Definitely has more ingredients than five
34:11And sangria I've never heard of
34:13So
34:14Just because I know Mojito is quite a low number
34:17I'm going to go with Mojito
34:19Let's light up Mojito
34:21We're after Mojito
34:26It's punch
34:27Punch
34:27Right
34:28Never mind
34:29Alright
34:29Okay
34:30There were two I was hoping that you would be landing on
34:33Yes
34:34Because you told me a moment ago
34:35Sport's not so good
34:36Yes
34:36And as we go back to the categories
34:38That's what's coming up next
34:42So we're down to potential nine counters
34:44And that's what we probably need to get things moving
34:48Keep ourself in it
34:49So are you playing for three?
34:51Let's go for three
34:51Come on now
34:52Here's the one
34:52We've got to get this
34:55What is a common name for a backwards airborne kick in soccer?
35:00Bicycle kick
35:01Butterfly kick
35:02Or barrel kick
35:03Now work your way through this one
35:05I've heard of bicycle kick and butterfly kick
35:09I'm pretty sure both of those are related in soccer
35:13I've never heard of a barrel kick being affiliated with soccer before
35:16So I don't think it's barrel kick
35:18I feel like I've heard bicycle kick more
35:21So light up bicycle kick
35:23I'm going to light up bicycle kick
35:26So let's find out if we've got three counters with bicycle kick
35:32We do
35:35Is it not that one where they go
35:37Yeah, I'll play for a minute
35:38No
35:38Yeah
35:39That way
35:39Yeah
35:42We are good
35:42Yes
35:43We've got three to play
35:44Get them on the left
35:45And let's get this party started
35:47That's what we want to do
35:48We're going to get to Fiji
35:49So light up four
35:59Started left
36:00But spun hard out into that corner
36:05Good news is
36:05We can start building the bank a bit
36:07There's those big shadows on the tipping point
36:12Come on now
36:13Let's deliver some money
36:20All of those shadows are now in the win zone
36:22And it was seven in total
36:24So that'll give you 3,200 in the bank
36:28Let's go back there for the second time
36:30Light her up again please
36:37Sit down
36:39Come on go a little left
36:40Light me a little bit
36:41A little left
36:42Okay
36:44Yeah
36:46And sit down flat
36:47Don't ride on us
36:48Come on go backwards
36:49Yes
36:49Yes
36:50Hopefully that can clean out that little left bit
36:53From drop zone three as well
36:57Nope
36:58We'll take it
36:59We'll take it
36:59Find you a single
37:00It's a hundred bucks
37:01So it'll give you 3,300 sitting in the bank
37:04It pushed it about halfway to getting over
37:07Not quite enough maybe to get it down with this next drop
37:09But it'd be good to have it peering over the edge
37:12So light up four again
37:14Come on left side
37:15Come on left
37:22Maybe a little bit of a lateral
37:25No
37:26No it's the weight
37:31Yeah
37:33Radio
37:34That's alright
37:34So we made some movement
37:35There's a couple little gaps there that I'm not enamoured with
37:39No me neither
37:39But let's go back
37:40We've still got six counters up for offer
37:42And moving on down
37:43Sci-fi
37:44How are you with sci-fi
37:45I love Star Wars
37:46Big Star Wars fan
37:47So if it's a Star Wars question
37:49We'll lock in there
37:49But don't mind things sci-fi
37:51So we'll go for three with that one
37:53That sounds promising
37:55Okay Adam
37:56Here's the sci-fi question
37:57Oi
38:00Which Star Wars villain uses a red lightsaber with a crossguard
38:05Is it Count Dooku, Darth Maul or Kylo Ren
38:10Pretty confident about this Todd
38:12I'm going to go Kylo Ren
38:13Let's light up Kylo Ren
38:16Alright
38:17But just because we're starting to get close
38:20I'm a little sweaty
38:21Let's take a break hey
38:22We'll be back in a moment
38:23Find out if you can get the $20,000
38:38Welcome back to Tipping Point everybody
38:40Adam's got $3,300
38:42Things are going okay
38:43We've got hopefully another three counters
38:45You've got the luggage
38:46But you want to get that trip to Fiji
38:48Yes
38:48Let's find out whether you've got the Star Wars question correct or not
38:52Which Star Wars villain uses a red lightsaber with a crossguard
38:55You said light up Kylo Ren
38:57Pretty confident he says
39:01Got it
39:04All right
39:05We need a little bit of luck
39:06We need everything to steer left and see what happens with those sort of two gaps
39:10There's one to the right and one a little bit behind
39:12And see if we can get it on the bottom shelf here
39:14All right
39:14Come on Adam
39:15Up to you in here now
39:26That came down very fast
39:27Didn't it
39:27And then it just did a bit of a gymnastics jump right on top
39:31All right
39:32Okay so we can't afford to not get something out of these next two
39:35No
39:35Let's work on that timing
39:36Yep
39:36Let's light her again
39:46Come on Adam
39:51This is going to get a little more money though
39:53Yeah
39:56Just another two but plenty ready to come on over
39:59But it'll give you three and a half thousand
40:01Happy with that
40:01Yeah good
40:02But we need to make this counter really do some good hard work for us
40:06So fly to raft
40:13All right
40:14Our left
40:15Not machines left
40:18All right
40:19This is going to be a good bit of money though
40:24I wish that double
40:26That would have been good
40:27That would have been very good
40:28If that double had have come
40:29That would have increased a lot
40:31Because it was eight over the tipping point as it was
40:33So another $800
40:35It's going to give you $4,300
40:37And now we go back and try and find
40:39These last three counters
40:41On the categories board
40:42The final category is
40:45Political pets
40:46I probably don't know much
40:48But if you want to get it down
40:50We have to go to three
40:50You've got to have a chance
40:51If you don't know anyway
40:52One out of three
40:54Multiple choice gives you a bit of a chance
40:56At least Adam
40:57Serving as the ring bearer
40:59At his 2025 wedding
41:01Was Anthony Albanese's pet dog
41:02Named what?
41:05Toto
41:05Lassie
41:07Or Scooby
41:08I don't think Toto
41:10Or Scooby
41:10I don't know
41:12I feel like
41:12Probably wouldn't name them
41:14After movie characters
41:15He might
41:16But I know
41:17That Lassie was quite a famous dog
41:19So
41:20We'll go with Lassie
41:22Light her up
41:24Anthony Albanese's pet dog
41:27Is it named Lassie?
41:30Ah
41:32We need to go to Kansas
41:34It was Toto
41:36Not what we were hoping for
41:38Not what we were hoping for
41:39No
41:39But what you were hoping for
41:40Was to come here
41:41And try and earn yourself some money
41:43Yes
41:43And you have done that
41:44With $4,300
41:48So
41:50I would love you to get a little bit more
41:52Love you to fill up your luggage
41:53That you've already got
41:54With some extra cash
41:55Yes
41:56So let's play Jackpot Temptation
42:02Alright
42:02Alright
42:03What are you thinking?
42:04Because you know
42:04If you're going to play Temptation
42:06You're going to have to give up
42:06That $4,300
42:08We didn't get as many counters in
42:10As what we were hoping for
42:11No
42:11So
42:12Let me just give you something
42:13Special here
42:15I've got to give you five
42:16Haven't I?
42:17I think so
42:17Yep
42:18Righto
42:18So let's do that
42:20Let's increase the value
42:21Of the Jackpot Counter
42:23To $40,000
42:26And I can't get you to Fiji
42:28But I can get you another holiday
42:31I wonder if I could tempt you
42:32With an all-inclusive holiday
42:33For two to Vena
42:34Vanuatu
42:34Including return flights
42:36And seven nights
42:37At the Irariki Island Resort
42:39It's valued at over $8,000
42:40Thanks to the holiday package pros
42:43At Travel Online
42:44Now
42:46While you
42:48Put the wonder twin powers
42:50Kind of activate together with Daniel
42:53We're going to the newsroom
42:56Before we went to the newsroom
42:57Adam
42:58Put the offer on the table
42:59Of five counters
43:00For $40,000
43:01Plus a trip to Vanuatu
43:04And the whole time
43:05And the whole time
43:05You've just been staring
43:06At the machine
43:07I have
43:08What have you been thinking about
43:08I manifest that
43:09To move a little bit closer
43:10What should he do?
43:13Play
43:13Play
43:13Play
43:15Play
43:16I think he should take it
43:19What are you saying Daniel?
43:20He's got a substantial amount of money
43:21It's still on the top shelf
43:22So if I was him
43:23I'd take the money
43:24Okay
43:25Look I haven't had too much luck
43:27With it moving to the left
43:29And I don't want to risk
43:31Going home
43:33With that money
43:34And the suitcase
43:35So
43:3521 aren't you?
43:36I am
43:37Yes
43:37So that's
43:38That's great
43:39So I reckon we'll take the money Todd
43:41You'll take the money
43:42I get the feeling
43:43That I can't change

43:47So I must say
43:48It's been a lot of fun
