00:30Expert subject, the nanny
00:34Here's your host, Tom Gleeson
00:38Hello, too much sport is barely enough
00:42Welcome to Hard Quiz, these contestants are preppers
00:45Last one to leave the bunker will be tonight's Hard Quiz champions
00:48To be part of the show at home, go to the ABC iView socials, let's say hello
00:54G'day Angelina
00:56Hello
00:56Now the nanny is a bit before your time
00:59Quite a bit
01:00Yeah, how did you get into the nanny?
01:01My mum raised me as a 90s kid in the 2000s
01:04Which happens when you grow up in the sticks in Adelaide, so you know
01:07Okay
01:09And you liked it, even though even then it would have been dated
01:12Yeah, the first episode I watched was actually when they got married
01:15And I was like, oh, I like this a lot
01:18And I related to her quite a bit
01:19So you know, I was like, yeah, this is who I'll choose to watch
01:22All right, how many times would have you watched the whole thing all the way through?
01:25Since I was 14, I finish it and then I start re-watching it, so I can't even count
01:30Probably like 50
01:31Yeah
01:32I don't even know
01:33It's insane
01:34There's all this prestige TV on offer
01:37We're living in a golden age of TV and you're watching that shit
01:41What's going on?
01:43And what do you do for a job?
01:44I'm a nanny
01:45Yeah
01:52So did you become a nanny because you love the show so much?
01:54No, no, I just like working with kids
01:56And you know what?
01:57It gets better though
01:58I run my own nanny agency
02:00And it's called The Nanny Named Ange
02:02Okay
02:04So, you know
02:07Jack
02:08Hello, Tom
02:09How did you get into the Mustang?
02:11Well, it goes to a long story
02:12I'd better not give it a long story
02:14Because my daughter said
02:15Don't talk too much, Jack
02:18Thanks, daughter
02:21I really fell in love with the Spitfire first
02:23When I was seven years old
02:24Okay
02:25But later on, I found the Mustang
02:27And I thought, oh, you beauty
02:28I fell in love with it straight away
02:31And actually did a flight in a few years back
02:34Flying a mile higher over Maitland
02:36For about 20 minutes
02:38Doing aerobatics
02:39And sort of consummated the romance then
02:41Oh yeah, there you are, doing it there
02:43So were you flying the plane?
02:45No, well, no
02:48I always wanted to be a pilot
02:49But I never did make it
02:51So you're sitting behind the pilot then?
02:52I am, yeah
02:53I'm telling him what to do
02:55How did you not spill?
02:57Well, he told me
02:58He said to hold my stomach in
03:00And the three G's will take care of it
03:02And they did
03:02Oh, okay
03:04Jack, this might sound rude
03:05But I don't care
03:05Because I'm rude
03:06Yes, I know
03:07How old are you?
03:08Uh, 92
03:09Oh, okay
03:16I think you are our oldest contestant we've ever had on Hard Quiz
03:20Beauty, I've won something already
03:21And I think you're also our youngest viewer
03:32Pete, what's your favourite thing about the state of origin?
03:34Is it the game or the grubs who play it?
03:37Probably all the above, Tom
03:38Yeah, you like watching the grubs go at it?
03:41Watching the blues get up, more importantly
03:42Yeah
03:43Um
03:47Gay
03:50What would you do if one of your kids started supporting Queensland?
03:53Um, that would be tough to take
03:55Um, yeah
03:57We'd have to look at some options
04:02Are you coaching under-eighth footy team?
04:05I do
04:05Are there any of the team that are showing promise
04:07And one day they might appear before a court?
04:10Um
04:13Joe
04:14Tom
04:15Why do you like funnel web so much?
04:17And what's wrong with you?
04:19Well
04:21You need to approach danger
04:23Yes
04:23With knowledge
04:25With, um, courage
04:26Yeah
04:28Vigilance
04:28Yeah
04:29And purpose
04:29So therefore you will not be afraid
04:31Oh, so is this overcoming a fear?
04:34No
04:34I just moved into an area that was loaded with funnel webs
04:38All throughout my backyard
04:39And you just had to make peace with that?
04:41I had to make peace with that
04:42I had young children
04:43So I decided to learn as much as I could about them
04:45Alright
04:46So when you get bitten by one and you're dying
04:48Your last words will be
04:50Oh, I know the Latin name for them
04:52Very important
04:55Do you think they've had a bit of a bad rap
04:57Or are we right to be scared of them?
04:59Who doesn't love
05:01A cute little animal
05:02With shiny little eyes
05:04And fluffy little feet?
05:06Yeah, well
05:07When you describe a koala
05:09I agree with you
05:10But you did not describe a funnel web spider
05:13Oh, they're pretty amazing, aren't they?
05:15And unique
05:15And they're also a bit of an Australian icon
05:18But so is Ivan Milat
05:23Alright, let's play
05:24Hard!
05:25Expert round
05:27Expert subjects
05:28Win or lose five points
05:30Steal and answer
05:31Double points
05:32I'll ask each of you five questions on your expert subject
05:35Right, you get five points
05:36Wrong, I will take five points from you
05:38The rest of you can steal at any time to get double points
05:40Let's start with Jo and her expert subject
05:43Australian funnel web spiders
05:46The Sydney funnel web can be identified by its large spinnerets
05:50Which produce what?
05:52Jo

06:02Visitors can witness a keeper provoke funnel web spiders
06:05As part of what demonstration?
06:07Jo
06:07Milking
06:09Correct
06:12The park is the only provider of venom for the production of anti-venom
06:16And this is what milking a funnel web looks like
06:20So you basically just annoy the spider so much that it tries to kill you
06:25Is that right, Jo?
06:26It's a dream job
06:27Yeah
06:28I'd love to do that
06:29That's what Virginia Trioli's like when you take a latte too
06:35Measuring 9.2 centimetres foot to foot
06:38This large male funnel web was named after which trio of Australian actor brothers?
06:43Jo

06:50In 1958, a research lab's appeal for funnel webs was followed a day later by a statement from a government
06:57spokesperson saying that spiders must not be sent through what service?
07:01Jo
07:02Male
07:02Male
07:03Correct
07:08Last question in your set, Jo
07:10A peptide that can prevent cardiac damage after a heart attack has been discovered in the venom of funnel webs
07:16located on which sand island?
07:19Jo
07:19Gharry Island
07:20Correct
07:24Also known as Fraser Island, have you been to watch a milking?
07:28Oh several times, it's one of my sort of annual outings
07:33Five for five!
07:39Next set of questions is for Pete on State of Origin
07:45State of Origin is an annual rugby league series between the New South Wales Blues, nicknamed the Cockroaches, and the
07:51Queensland Maroons, nicknamed after which invasive pest?
07:55Pete
07:55Cane Tote

08:02In 1985, Blues captain Steve Mortimer was carried off the field after the team won their first ever Origin series
08:08at which Sydney stadium?
08:10Pete
08:11SCG
08:12SCG
08:13Correct
08:17From 2006 to 2013, the Maroons won eight consecutive series with which former Queensland captain as coach?
08:24Pete
08:24That's Mal Meninga

08:36in which state of origin competition?
08:39Pete
08:41The women's state of origin
08:43Correct
08:47What do you think of women's origin, Pete?
08:48To be honest, it's better footy than the blokes to watch
08:55Last question in your set, Pete
08:56In 2025, Cameron Munster captained the Maroons to a series win while grieving the recent loss of which family member?
09:03Pete

09:05Correct
09:08Time for four!

09:20The first Mustang fighter planes arrived in Britain two years into the Second World War after being designed and built
09:26in which then neutral country?
09:28Jack
09:29In America

10:37Supplying extra fuel to the Mustang, disposable tanks made from paper and glue were informally named after what crafting technique?
10:45Jack
10:45Paper mache
10:47Correct
10:47Correct
10:52They've all made of paper mache, I imagine it makes them lighter
10:55The main thing was that they were originally made out of aluminium, but because when they dropped them, the Germans
11:01picked them up and used them for building their aircraft
11:04Right, but when you drop these in the channel, they just frid away to nothing
11:09Not a fun pinata though

19:59what will you do with the mug if you win Joe?
20:01It's not really to my taste
20:03Oh
20:04I probably would just put it in the cupboard with all the other stuff I don't like and when I'm
20:07dead my kids could worry about it
20:13What about you Pete?
20:14Being a teacher myself, it probably would be a handy stationary pot
20:18Pens, pencils, rulers, scissors, all that
20:24I know what stationary is
20:27It's best to fire penalty shootout style harder questions on your expert subjects
20:31So it's Joe's knowledge of Australian funnel web spiders versus Pete's knowledge of state of origin
20:36Let's play
20:37Hard!
20:41Marty
20:47Diagram
20:47Joe, this is a drawing of a male Sydney funnel web spider but it's missing two things
20:52It's spurs
20:56So place the spurs in their correct positions
21:00We'll need the correct leg and the correct segment of the leg
21:03So on me or on the...
21:06On you?
21:07You can put it on me or yourself
21:09It'll be f***ing wrong won't it?
21:13Okay
21:13Okay
21:14It's on this second leg but whereabouts?
21:18Um...
21:18That's really mean
21:21Um...
21:22It's to hold the female down while he's doing the deed of mating so she doesn't kill him in the
21:28act
21:29Oh
21:29Um...
21:32Okay
21:34No, I'm gonna go here
21:38Yep
21:39Okay
21:44Correct
21:45Correct
21:50Marty
21:51Thank you
21:53Well done
21:54Pete
21:56In the 1997 series former blues captain turned coach Tommy Radonicus used the code word cattle dog to prompt the
22:05team to do what?
22:07Cattle dog
22:08Tommy being Tommy was a call to uh... to invoke some violence so it was to um start a fight
22:16with the other team
22:18Correct
22:23Joe, after many years spent trying to develop a funnel web anti-venom it was discovered that the venom being
22:29studied was accidentally losing potency for what reason?
22:35Why was it losing potency? That's a very good question
22:43You're all good questions Joe
22:46Every single one
22:47It was losing potency because it needed refrigeration
22:56Incorrect
22:58Ah, the correct answer is the main toxin in the venom was sticking to the lab equipment and glassware
23:03Ah, yeah, they fixed it by lining their glass tools with silicone
23:07Oh, yes
23:09And that
23:11You're blaming us for you being poorly researched
23:16P
23:16The 2025 Maroons men's jersey was inspired by a past Queensland team
23:22What detail on the right sleeve have we obscured?
23:28Hmm...
23:29I'm not really sure, don't really like that jersey Tom
23:33Maybe a Maroons stripe
23:38Incorrect
23:39The correct answer is...
23:411995
23:42Oh
23:44Now that I say that, you know why?
23:47For their series win, perhaps
23:49Well, the 1995 refers to the 95 Maroons side dubbed the Neville Nobodies
23:54Yes
23:54Who went on to win the series, so they were...
23:57Yep
23:57Inspired by the Neville Nobodies because that particular team was full of nobodies
24:01That makes sense
24:03Joe
24:04Identified by and later named after spider enthusiast Cain Christensen
24:10The species Atrax Christenseni had what earlier nickname?
24:17Rather apt
24:18It was called...
24:20It came from Newcastle
24:23And the Novocastrian said, well we're going to claim this as the Newcastle Big Boy
24:30Correct
24:31Correct
24:36Pete
24:36In game one of the 2000 series, Gordon Tallis was sent off the field because he said
24:43What word to referee Bill Harrigan?
24:47He called him a cheat
24:50Correct
24:54Joe
24:55According to the Australian Museum, the Adelaide Enses species group are the only known funnel webs to include what unusual
25:04feature as part of their burrows?
25:08Okay
25:10They're South Australian, so anything goes really
25:15So...
25:16Hello to our South Australian viewers
25:20Um...
25:21I reckon it's a...
25:23Second bedroom
25:26Incorrect
25:28The correct answer is trapdoors
25:30I didn't know that
25:32Yeah, they have trapdoors on their burrows
25:35Pete, despite Queensland officially being declared the winner of the 1987 series
25:39Some New South Wales players maintain that the series was a draw
25:43For what reason?
