00:06It's a brand new season of Celebrity Treasure Island.
00:1216 fresh celebs think they're ready.
00:15Battle ready!
00:17But they have no idea what's coming.
00:20This game just knows how to pull me, you know?
00:24I don't imagine there'll be a coup. I could be wrong.
00:26We are in for the kill today.
00:27Also, I've got an old mate crashing the party.
00:30Miss me?
00:33We're back in the far north.
00:36And this quest is like nothing we've faced before.
00:39A brand new mystery is about to drop.
00:44What matters is that the world collapsed.
00:48Dystopia, it's ruins of civilization.
00:50Banks crumbled.
00:52Gold was the key.
00:54And chaos rules.
00:59The games have begun.
01:01We're all set to get some revenge today.
01:04My face just got attacked.
01:06There are two more celebs waiting in the wings.
01:10Oh my God, I just got shivers.
01:12I have no idea what's going on.
01:15Everyone forward.
01:16Bigger battles.
01:19What a sick freak made this game up.
01:23Wilder meltdowns.
01:24We stole them.
01:26Their team are just the dirtiest players.
01:31Get the f*** out of our face right now.
01:34It makes me feel sick.
01:35And the most emotional season of Celebrity Treasure Island yet.
01:40What the hell are we doing to each other?
01:43Stay in there, stay in there.
01:45Need a minute.
01:46Oh, f***.
01:48I'm sorry.
01:49I'm just a little bit of...
01:51No more empathy.
01:52This is the game.
01:54Now we have a battle on our hands!
01:57We're not going down without a fight.
02:00Who's got what it takes to snag 100k for their charity?
02:03That's right.
02:04Celebrity Treasure Island is back, baby!
03:03We're not going to die.
03:10Celebrity Treasure Island is back and our 16 new celebrities have no idea of the
03:17twists turns and chaos that's about to hit them I'm already nervous for the
03:25drama because usually I distance myself from it and now I've gone and put myself
03:30right in the boil up pot I mean I didn't come here to stir the pot but if the
03:36pot needs stirring well damn people think I'm a princess you know because I
03:43wear the tiaras and I love glam and I love dressing up and I love sparkles I
03:48don't have like you know the guns and I probably don't look like the smartest
03:51person but I grew up with three brothers you know I had to fight for everything
04:00that I got I'm always gonna come on this I just love the show hey pretty good
04:05show I've watched it like most seasons and I just want to like dig up trees like a
04:10pirate that's pretty cool like a dream that's a dream job right there you know
04:14buck a list I'm family man simple man lives on the coast quiet fishing diving
04:23you know my little life and then anything verse someone else I'm a competitive
04:31demon if it's me verse you it's me man I'm a sports reporter that's where I hope
04:40people know me from I'm not a sportsman I'm definitely not adventurous this is
04:45definitely outside my comfort zone like what am I doing here I I don't know I
04:52would love to win this whole thing I think a woman needs to win this so I'm
04:56here to play I'm here to play to win I am pumped oh I feel that in my cockles
05:04eyes dude I've done no training I've done no training in any I I'm in like city
05:09mode right now I don't really know much about how the show works I've read a lot
05:15of Wikipedia articles about it I feel like there's a lot of running involved I feel
05:20like there's a lot of rice and beans in the show my fitness is that an all-time
05:24low last refuge oh shit I don't know what I'm signed up for I have spent the
05:36last few years not being as adventurous as I used to be so I'm just trying to do
05:41things that challenge me and not just be afraid of life I don't be afraid of life
05:46I don't have a great sense of balance it's less than a foot deep we are about to find
05:51out whether my idea of coming in here is really dumb or really smart it was our arrival on the
06:03island it's one of the march up the beach purposefully turn around but what is going
06:10on hey we need a medic mate what'd you do getting off the boat I've done something
06:15through here well that's a record not even five minutes in and we're already
06:23calling the medic buckle up folks I've really done a mischief to my knee I
06:27haven't even really started the game yet and I'm a lame duck it's like it's so frustrating and
06:33disappointing there's not the pain it's just I don't want to let my team down I'm worried for
06:37my team but sometimes pain can disperse through adrenaline and that's what I'm certainly hoping
06:47a strained knee might not be the adventure Polly had in mind but she's not about to let it dampen
06:55her spirits absolute icon all right back into the action here they come fresh fearless and totally
07:09unprepared just the way I like it well well well fancy seeing you guys here the first thing going
07:20through my head is holy hell they are so young and beautiful I am feeling very nervous I'm feeling
07:30really excited whoa I saw their team and I was like we've got this like we've got this which is
07:37crazy
07:38to say no my hide am I get the hiku or Tika the rugged landscape forming the tale of the
07:45legendary
07:46Fisher of Maui pulled up from the depths of the ocean this is the far north the place of meeting
07:53seas shifting sands and ancient stories home to sacred sites such as third in a way to a Cape
08:00Ranga where according to Marty the spirits of the departed take the final leap into the spiritual realm it is
08:06home to the tribes of muri whenua and we are privileged to stand in this place treat it with respect
08:13carry
08:14yourselves with mana and honor the stories it holds I probably should mention my old mate Jaden's back

08:49Treasure Island no pressure no no no pressure and he won it right here in this very place okay yeah
08:55I'm
08:55crumbling under that pressure Chris Parker is my older brother who won the iconic season of 2021
09:04tell us the truth did he give you any words of wisdom surely he gave me words of affirmation
09:10because he knows me I think because he knows me really well his advice was more like be present
09:16don't be hard on yourself and he was just like big bro kind of like supportive
09:22Vinnie Bennett Kia ora Jaden you played a young Vin Diesel in Fast and Furious are you planning on bringing
09:28that same ride or die energy to the island
09:30we'll have to find out won't we I was very Vin Diesel I think people will underestimate my mental game
09:40I
09:40think they might expect me to just depend on uh you know the physical and then the brute force kind
09:47of
09:47side of it all but now open up we're on they'll see Polly Gillespie great to see you thank you
09:58you
09:59have had an illustrious radio career giving you battle-tested experience and wisdom do you think
10:05any of that's going to help you in this game absolutely not we didn't either David Kareos is
10:13here or should I say David chaos mate you're known for being about as calm as a seagull in a
10:18chip shop
10:20I just clicked I just clicked that took a while but I clicked thank you that's a good one that's
10:25a good one what's going on up here right now I'm uh I'm cold I'm cold well I'm ready to
10:31warm up I
10:32think the worst thing that could happen is burning bridges with people that I don't know that well
10:37yet the more I get to know someone I feel like that's when my more annoying parts of me come
10:43out I think the worst thing that could happen is like people getting annoyed with me right if you
10:48were listening carefully there are a few hints in there as to why you've been placed into these two
10:53teams basically we've put everyone with ADHD into one team challenge is to figure out which team
11:05that is obviously I'm kidding kind of blue team you have all been chosen because you carry wisdom of
11:19the sea orange you bring the fury of the skies that's right guys this season is wisdom versus fury
11:34we like it I got goosey the wisdom and fury thing makes a lot of sense for the two groups
11:40but I
11:41interpret that it's just old versus young let me explain a little bit more over here on the wisdom
11:47side we have not one but two TV doctors and as we know doctors have all the answers how's it
11:53going
11:54Ben and Ria pretty good not sure we've got all the answers but between us we've got all the answers
12:00I'd like to think I'm a little bit of an all-rounder but I'm gonna be as surprised as anybody
12:05else in
12:06terms of what I am good at doing and what I am not good at doing I'm a wild card
12:11to me we also have
12:12Frank Buntz the wise experience give it up people always keep saying wise I'm not quite sure why because
12:21you're carrying that stick Frank Buntz is there I've looked up to that guy you know like I'm just
12:27chilling out with Frank Buntz the all-black you know that's pretty surreal Frank you're a CTI alumni remind
12:32us what year that was that was 2001 I think how are you feeling about being back I'm feeling great
12:39actually every time we ask him he says he can't remember you know I get asked why would you do
12:44it
12:44again and it's the people you know it's always the people comes back down because I can't remember any
12:49of these challenges I can't remember the food over here on the fury side we have musician Georgia lines
12:55fueled by fire and passion and here's a tip if you do cross her she will go Taylor Swift on

16:02Yeah!
16:05Alright.
16:06First up, one player from each team will enter the arena
16:10armed with a balancing disc and a small statue balancing on that disc.
16:14Your aim is to knock your opponent's statue to the ground.
16:18First team to seven points wins.
16:21Capuche?
16:21Capuche.
16:23Let's do this thing!
16:29Alright, for this first round we're going to have female against female.
16:34I'll give you a second to choose who that will be, then we'll get into it.
16:38You guys have to go.
16:40I back my team. I think we're awesome.
16:42But that other team is super young.
16:46Hotness doesn't really matter, but super hot.
16:49Yeah, I'll go first.
16:50Oh!
16:50Oh!
16:52That's it!
16:53Sammy Poole, former Miss New Zealand,
16:57versus Ria Vandivis, Shorty Street alumni.
17:02Like, I just wanted to get the nerves out of the way,
17:04because that's what I do in everything in life.
17:05If I can go first, then it means that it's done first.
17:08Facing off for the first challenge in Celebrity Treasure Island.
17:13This is a big one.
17:14Kaurite, are you ready?
17:15This wind is rushing through,
17:18and it is definitely going to make this so hard.
17:22Ti Mata!
17:24Yeah, we can serve it early.
17:25Come on, Ria.
17:26We can serve it early.
17:27We can serve it early.
17:28They're stroking like a cat on heat.
17:31Take it slow.
17:32Bro's trying to work out the strategies.
17:34Be the takabu.
17:35No one wants to be the first to lose.
17:37I try a few flicks.
17:39Oh!
17:40Nice, Ria!
17:41They're not landing.
17:42Then I feel like I've got this great, great chance.
17:46Nice, Ria!
17:47Oh!
17:48Ria's statue balls!
17:50To be fair, I was robbed by the wind.
17:53I swear.
17:55Sammy gets the first point.
17:57Ria!
17:59Yeah, I think I've proved myself.
18:01Maybe a little too early, but I think I've definitely proved myself.
18:04We have one point for Kauru.
18:06Zero for Takapu.
18:08Not a great start to the competition, but it's only up from here.
18:14Okay, for the second round, we're going to have two guys up against two guys.
18:19Last person standing.
18:20Their team wins the points.
18:22Let's go.
18:23Let's go.
18:24First time we walk into the ring, it's like two people for the first time.
18:28I think I'm going to do all right at it.
18:30I think I'm going to do all right at it because I'm going to try and be shrieky about it.
18:33Yeah, they're really tall.
18:34They're real tall.
18:35Look at them.
18:35They're so tall, eh?
18:36They're big units.
18:37What workout do you do for your height?
18:39So I'm going like, okay, we'll just have to go for one person.
18:42So I lock out Ben.
18:44Eye on us.
18:45Yeah!
18:46Louis and Vinnie's statues fall.
18:48They're out of the game.
18:53I've got to distract Ben.
18:54I mean, like, just a lot of eye contact.
18:56Like, I don't want him focusing on the statue.
18:58I want him focusing on me.
18:59We should work together.
19:00We should.
19:03Boom.
19:04Find my, find my moment.
19:06Got it off.
19:07Taking Kahu to two points.
19:09Yeah!
19:10Look at him.
19:11He's stoked.
19:12I love this.
19:13And this is why I love Celebrity Treasure Island.
19:15You never know what's going to happen.
19:17You never know what's going to happen.
19:17All right, contestants, are you ready?
19:19Yes.
19:20Timata.
19:20I'm competitive enough to know I can do this.
19:23I can do this, Polly.
19:25You've got old age and treachery.
19:27You're going to be fine.
19:28Come on, team.
19:30Come on, Knicks.
19:31No!
19:32You're out.
19:34Liv statue falls.
19:37Polly versus Tao.
19:40Oh, dirty tactics.
19:42Both statues down at the same time.
19:45Who's hit the ground first?
19:46Play there, Beck.
19:48Play there, Beck.
19:49We're going to have to go to the VAR for that one.
19:51Do you think it'll be green?
19:52Yes.
19:53It's a draw.
19:55Good game.
19:55Good game.
19:56But you know what?
19:57Pop's the Polly.
19:58She's fast.
20:00All right, after that draw, we still have two points to Kahu,
20:03zero points to Takapu.
20:04There is a lot riding on this challenge.
20:07You've got Harrison Keepe, Georgia Lions for Kahu,
20:11Ria Vandivis, and Frank Fuggs for Takapu.
20:16Timata.
20:18I'm on blue.
20:20I got chased by Frank.
20:23Yeah.
20:24It was real scary.
20:25Whoa.
20:26Frank Fuggs.
20:27Frank Fuggs.
20:27It's just the chess match.
20:28You know, you're just waiting.
20:30Shall I go?
20:30Shall I go?
20:30Shall I move?
20:31You go.
20:35He pretty much just put his arm and just knocked it off,
20:38and I was like, man, do whatever you want, honestly.
20:39I love you.
20:41Then I got off and just, like, winked at him.
20:43He poked his tongue out at me.
20:45But...
20:45mean.
20:47Can Ria pull the first point for Takapu?
20:50Go on, Ria.
20:51Come on, Ria.
20:53I really want to get a point for my team,
20:56because we are not doing so well.
20:58The wind is blowing.
21:02Fell down.
21:03Every time.
21:05Nice try.
21:06Kahu goes three.
21:07Zip.
21:08Just watch yours, mate.
21:09Watch your statue.
21:13Vinnie!
21:14We are being knocked down.
21:18Left, right and centre.
21:23This could not be going worse.
21:26We have five points to Kahu.
21:28Zero points to Takapu.
21:30Remember, it's first to seven.
21:31We are going to win this, huh?
21:33We already made our minds up.
21:35We've already celebrated.
21:40David, we're doing the cha-cha.
21:41David, we're doing the cha-cha.
21:43High five.
21:44High three.
21:48Takapu pulls in their first point.
21:51It's a long way back from here, but it's been done before.
21:54Nice, Ria.
21:55Can Ria get the second point from her team?
21:57They both reach it.
21:59And Mix overexerts, drops her statue.
22:02Ria takes the second point for Takapu.
22:04It feels really good to get that point.
22:07Good girl!
22:08Suddenly it looks like things might turn around.
22:11Takapu now has two points.
22:13Kahu has five.
22:14Let's go Harrison.
22:15Harrison keeps dipping in again.
22:17And Ben Barrington.
22:19Come on!
22:19I really think Ben will be our saviour.
22:21He's tall.
22:22He's also muscly and handsome as well.
22:25Be careful of that.
22:26Come on, Bene.
22:27Both men meet in the middle.
22:31Ben drops his statue.
22:35Match point.
22:38Georgia Lions implementing the moonwalk tactic.
22:41You got it, Georgia.
22:42Russia.
22:44Got it, Georgia.
22:44That's it, that's it.
22:46That's it.
22:46Block her in.
22:48Oh!
22:49Oh!
22:50Oh!
22:51Oh!
22:51Oh!
22:51Oh!
22:52Oh!
22:53Oh!
22:53You're so, pretty!
22:55Our team has won.
22:57Oh my gosh, everyone did so great.
22:5915!
23:00We actually stomped them, eh?
23:02I'm feeling pretty confident about being on the island, to be honest.
23:05If this is the vibe, it's going to be so sick.
23:07Congratulations, Kahu, you have taken out the first challenge.
23:11You have earned the right to choose which of the two legends you want as your Kaihotu.
23:17Very exciting that we're going to choose our captain.
23:19Huge advantage.
23:21I think it's pretty important.
23:23Are you ready to find out who those legends are?
23:25Yes!
23:27Well, you're going to have to wait until the next challenge.
23:30I know.
23:32Suspense is my love language.
23:35Who could it be?
23:36Will it be sports people?
23:38Will it be a movie star?
23:39Will it be a Kardashian?
23:40Like, it wouldn't be a Kardashian, would it?
23:43All right, Kahu, head that way where you will find your kainga.
23:47Takapu, yours will be that way.
23:50Settle in, we'll see you very soon for the first team face-off.
23:53Get out of here, guys. See you soon.
23:57We don't get to choose. The other team get to choose.
24:00Yeah.
24:01It's completely out of our control.
24:03We don't have any power.
24:17Oh, my God.
24:22It does have an ocean view.
24:23Having just arrived at camp.
24:25Oh, okay.
24:27It looks like we're sort of Glastonbury camping without the mud and without the pillows.
24:34I think I have to be down.
24:36You know, like I'm sharing a bunk with Frank Bunce.
24:38Like, that is nuts.
24:39I'm on the top bunk.
24:40He's on the bottom bunk.
24:41And I'm going to be like, hey, Frank.
24:43Like, we're bunk buddies.
24:44I had to take the bottom bunk because there's no way I'm climbing up a ladder.
24:47You know, and then in the middle of the night I have to climb down and go to the toilet.
24:50Fart is on the bottom bunk.
24:51Oh, here we go.
24:52The classic celebrity treasure island camp banter.
24:56Fart jokes and bunk chatter.
24:58Truly the soundtrack of day one.
25:00Actually, it's probably nicer than the beds.
25:02Can you bring us a pillow?
25:04I wonder how Kahu are settling in.
25:06This is cool.
25:07Really?
25:08Oh, this is cool.
25:10I am so stoked to see walls on our camp.
25:15I have no complaints.
25:17There's a sleeping bag.
25:18There's a hammock.
25:19There's a beach in my backyard.
25:21And don't forget an empty bunk.
25:23Wait, who's going to sleep in that one?
25:25Our captain.
25:25Oh, captain.
25:26Oh, I'm going to sleep next to the captain.
25:28Oh, I see how it is.
25:31I see how it is.
25:31She's like whispering sweet nothings.
25:34I love my team.
25:36We're bonded really, really quickly.
25:38I'm so happy that we all work together.
25:42But how's about that?
25:43We've f***ing won the first challenge.
25:45Yeah!
25:51How did you feel when you walked in and saw the other team, honestly?
25:53I was nervous, and then I wasn't.
25:55Nah, I was like, mean, we're a mean team.
25:57Yeah, I wasn't envious in the slightest.
26:00Yeah.
26:00Yeah.
26:00I didn't expect us to, like, dominate like that.
26:04We, like, dominated that game.
26:07They're also wise.
26:08They kind of look wise, too.
26:10They do look wise, too.
26:10They do look wise, too.
26:10But we still want one, so it's fine.
26:11Is that it?
26:12Old, you mean old?
26:12Not old, wise.
26:14You were wise.
26:14They were wise.
26:15Wise, old.
26:16It's funny how those words suddenly get mixed up out here.
26:20Careful boys, takapu might just school you yet.
26:24They are so young.
26:26Very young.
26:26What a, where wisdom and then what?
26:28Theory versus wisdom.
26:29Thank you, Polly.
26:30At least someone was listening.
26:32AKA old and young.
26:34Alright, I give up.
26:36Kahoo.
26:37Young whippersnappers.
26:39Takapu.
26:40Old.
26:42Whale.
26:44Our team has some knee issues and some asthma and this, that and the next.
26:47And we're going to have to find a way to overcome that.
26:50But, but, but.
26:52Old age and treachery always wins over youth and enthusiasm.
26:57So I have my vote.
26:57Well, I did it that time.
26:58No, no.
26:59I'm talking about the long game.
27:01The long game.
27:02The long game.
27:02I think it's good.
27:03We've just got to feel them out a little bit.
27:05Yeah.
27:05We know what we're up against.
27:08That was kind of our team's first test of friction.
27:11And I think we're getting through it with a bit of toxic positivity.
27:14People are saying, yeah, it's really good to lose the first challenge.
27:16It's a better story.
27:16And all I'm thinking is.
27:18So we've lost the abilities, have the first choice of captain.
27:23And I'm a little bit worried, if I'm honest.
27:26What kind of captain are we off?
27:28Do we want someone like, um, athletic or?
27:32What if they take it too seriously then?
27:34Nah, well I get, like an athletic person with like a big heart though.
27:37We also got to pick someone who kind of like fits the vibe as well.
27:39I know.
27:40I think that's the main thing.
27:41You know, like we're not really taking this too seriously.
27:43And I think that's why we're doing well.
27:46Yeah.
27:46We're a ragtag bunch of kids.
27:48We don't need a stepparent to come in and start making weird, crazy decisions.
27:52Because that's not how the fairy tales go.
27:54Is Valerie Adams available?
27:56Because she'd be handy.
27:57If it's someone like a, you know, like a Porsche Woodman, you know, you'd be like instant pick.
28:02I think it's going to be Taika Waititi.
28:04He's looking fit.
28:05Good be him.
28:05He's a legend in this field.
28:07All I'm thinking is.
28:08I hope this captain is a miracle worker.
28:11to come in and turn this ship around.
28:14Well, we've got somewhere to go from here, guys.
28:16That's right.
28:17And then some ways up.
28:18Yeah.
28:18Up to them.
28:20The Kahu.
28:21Kahu have the power to choose out of two legends in their field.
28:26Let's just hope they choose wrong.
28:41No.
28:43Ekk.
28:44What.
28:46Is this?
28:53Tēnā koutou katoa.
28:54Welcome to the first team face off.
28:57Woo!
29:00I bet the suspense is killing you right now, isn't it?
29:03Yeah.
29:04Are you ready to find out who these two legends are?
29:06Yes.
29:09Get in here, you lot!
29:12Oh my gosh.
29:13Who is it?
29:14Who is it?
29:14Who is it?
29:17It's Portia Woodland-Rickcliffe and Simon Barnett.
29:22Look at them go.
29:23Here they come.
29:25Come on through, guys.
29:27Got her.
29:28So pumped to see Portia.
29:30I've always admired her.
29:32I'm so stoked to see Simon.
29:34Simon, look at his body.
29:37His abs.
29:37He wore like an extra, extra small shirt.
29:40I love that about him.
29:41Nice of you to join us.
29:44Oh, honestly, to be here, it's unbelievable.
29:47I think it's the unknown.
29:49Makes me feel really nervous, but also really excited.
29:52Probably more nervous for this than any World Cup I've ever been a part of.
29:57Simon, like Frank Bunce, you're also a CTI alumni.
30:01Why on earth would you put yourself through this again?
30:04I really wasn't sure.
30:05I'm getting older, and I've been through a few things recently, so I thought I'll do it, yeah.
30:09About two years ago, I lost my wife to brain cancer, and I spoke with my daughters when I was
30:15asked to do it,
30:16and they said, Dad, you know, it's either this or sitting at home.
30:18I know Jode would relish me being here.
30:21So very mixed emotions, truthfully, very mixed emotions.
30:24Well, Kahu, you have one minute to make your decision.
30:29Go.
30:34It would be unreal to have the greatest athlete New Zealand has ever produced on our team,
30:40but since we have lost to Kahu, she is definitely getting chosen first.
30:44We're trusting.
30:46We trust the group.
30:47Yeah.
30:48Portia is the obvious choice to be our captain.
30:50I want her to be my captain.
30:52Imagine the sisterhood we could create.
30:54She'd be amazing as our captain.
30:56All right, Kahu, who's it going to be?
30:59All I'm thinking is, our captain is the radio guy.
31:13All right, Kahu, who's it going to be?
31:16Portia, one of the greatest athletes this country has ever produced.
31:21Oh, come on.
31:24Or, Simon.
31:26One of the most ripped men.
31:29One of the most ripped men you've ever seen and also a voice that has raised multiple generations of New
31:35Zealanders.
31:38Simon.
31:40Oh!
31:43You felt sorry for me, but I'll take it.
31:46I'm big on charity.
31:48Idiot.
31:49That is, no offence, Simon, a terrible decision.
31:52Takapu.
31:53That means Portia is your Kaihotu.
31:58Thanks, guys.
31:59I think they had completely altered the trajectory of their team with that choice.
32:05Simon, Portia, these are your captain's staffs, your mana hotu, a symbol of leadership and guardianship.
32:12With these, you hold the power to lead and the authority to steer your team on this journey.
32:18Come and grab them.
32:20Thank you very much.
32:23I think we picked, so I'm pretty happy with that decision.
32:26All right, let's get things moving.
32:28It is time for the wero.
32:30This one's going to be fun.
32:31It's slingshot volleyball.
32:33Oh.
32:35You'll be battling inside this fenced arena.
32:37One team to each side.
32:39Each team will start with 20 balls on their side and one slingshot.
32:42The Kaihotu must nominate one player to be their shooter.
32:46On my call, shooters will fire balls through the hole in the centre wall, aiming to land them on the
32:50other team's side.
32:51Teammates will collect balls that don't make it through and run them back to their shooter for reloading.
32:55You can fire the other team's balls back through the hole.
32:58The Kaihotu can swap shooters at any time, but then that shooter is out of the game.
33:03First team to clear all balls from their side wins.
33:07Now I can see by the looks on your faces, you're probably wondering what's on the line.
33:11Yes.
33:11Yes.
33:13Well, today's reward is literally on the line.
33:17It's fish again.
33:19Yes.
33:21If we could win that.
33:23Oh my God.
33:24And then if I caught fish for our group.
33:27Oh my God.
33:28My dad would be proud.
33:31Yeah, no, we got to get this one.
33:33We have got to get it.
33:35There's also another surprise.
33:36Oh, hello.
33:39This one's not so nice.
33:42Tonight, one of you will be set packing.
33:45Missing out on your shot at the $100,000 for your chosen charity.
33:50So lock in guys, because the game starts right now.
33:55Not stoked about that.
33:57Real vibe killer.
33:59Real vibe killer.
34:01Not fun.
34:02The winning team's Kaihotu will get to choose one person from each side to fight it out in the first
34:07elimination battle tonight.
34:10Oh no.
34:12I, who have just got here, has to go and send someone up for elimination.
34:16It's cruel.
34:17It's really, really cruel.
34:19All right.
34:20Let's do this.
34:26First up shooting photography, we have Zion.
34:30Did not expect them to choose.
34:32What's his name?
34:34Sorry?
34:35Zion.
34:36Their team looks so physically threatening.
34:39And he looks so sweet.
34:42For Kahu, we have Vinny Bennett.
34:45I looked through the hole and I see Vinny.
34:47I thought, awesome.
34:48Again.
34:49I have to come up against this guy again.
34:51Good luck Vinny.
34:52Come on team.
34:53I saw the slingshot immediately and I was keen to have a go with it.
34:58And I was like, okay, here we go.
34:59We're about to dominate this one again.
35:01Kaurita, are you ready?
35:03Yes!
35:04My God, there is balls flying everywhere.
35:10Boom!
35:11Go!
35:12It's just full on.
35:13Like I'm looking around.
35:14I'm like, oh my God.
35:15I've got a ball rolling to me.
35:17Grab that.
35:17Pick it up.
35:18Wait for Vinny.
35:19Hand it over.
35:19Oh, nice break.
35:20Oh my God.
35:21It is full on.
35:22How long will it take each man to get their eye in?
35:26See, we're not getting it in properly.
35:28Oh shit.
35:29He let go of the slingshot and the ball dropped and the slingshot went further than the ball.
35:32It may look easy.
35:34It's not.
35:35Nothing.
35:36It's going horribly wrong.
35:38Balls aren't even making it into the air.
35:41Oh my gosh.
35:46Let's go, let's go, let's go.
35:47First person to get a ball through the hole.
35:50Kahu has one ball.
35:52Get it.
35:52Get it first.
35:54Yes Vinny!
35:56Vinny has two.
35:57Has he got his eye in?
35:59Go Vinny!
36:00Yes Vinny!
36:01Yes Vinny!
36:02Vinny has three over.
36:04Will this be a short challenge?
36:06Vinny's got his eye in straight away.
36:09What has Zion got?
36:11Has Portia made the wise decision in this one?
36:14It's all right.
36:14Take your time.
36:15He's shooting above the hole, to the left, to the right.
36:18It's like, oh brother.
36:19You want to keep it the same.
36:21Like that.
36:21So that you're learning as it goes.
36:24And I've already gone, Louis, are you ready to step in if Zion doesn't quite crack it?
36:27And he's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
36:29Sweet.
36:30Go.
36:31But then he gets a couple, like just hitting the top of the hole.
36:34So close.
36:36Just to the side of it.
36:37And we're like, okay, you're in there bro.
36:38You've got this.
36:39Take your time.
36:41Yes!
36:41Yes!
36:41One.
36:43Yes!
36:44Two.
36:44Come on Zion!
36:45Three.
36:46And we're like, yes Zion, you've got it!
36:49Yes!
36:50Zion gets another ball through.
36:52That's four for Takapu.
36:53Bing, bing, bing, bing.
36:57Oh, that was one that crossed over in the middle.
37:00Did you see that?
37:02Yeah, nice Vinny.
37:03Tahu has seven balls on the other side.
37:06Takapu has eight balls.
37:08Nice.
37:09Nice shot, shot.
37:10Vinny evens it up.
37:12Takapu answers straight away.
37:14We are neck and neck.
37:17And another one comes through.
37:19Takapu have an answer.
37:20Nice shot Vinny.
37:22Nice mate.
37:23Zion is just smashing it.
37:27Yes!
37:27Yes Zion!
37:28Takapu only have five balls left.
37:30Quick, quick, quick, quick.
37:31They've only got five balls left.
37:33And I decide we need to start giving Vinny the other team's balls.
37:38Tahu, loading up one of Takapu's balls.
37:40This is the first time a ball from another team has been loaded.
37:44Yes!
37:44And he gets it through.
37:45Giving Takapu one more ball to fire back.
37:48One for one.
37:49One orange, one blue.
37:50And a boy!
37:50Yes!
37:51And a boy!
37:51And then they follow up with their own.
37:54Go Vinny!
37:55We start getting a couple of them through.
37:57And now we're thinking, okay, we're setting them back.
38:01Yes!
38:02Beautiful!
38:03But they just keep firing them back through.
38:05Zion gets another ball through.
38:07Four balls left.
38:10Zion, he's not just a sports reporter.
38:13He is a sports star.
38:15Takapu only have three balls left.
38:17Three to go.
38:18Let's bring it home.
38:19Come on.
38:20Come on.
38:21Yes!
38:22And another one!
38:24Maybe do it a bit stronger.
38:25And that's when I think I started panicking.
38:28Oh, .
38:29Just struggled to find the rhythm.
38:32.
38:33It's not hitting.
38:34And Zion found his.
38:36All right, hang on.
38:38Oh, my God!
38:40Oh, my God!
38:41Takapu have one more ball left to fire.
38:44Come on, mate.
38:46Yeah!
38:47Yeah!
38:48Yeah!
38:49Yeah!
38:51Zion!
38:51Zion!
38:51Zion, you're a legend!
38:53Takapu!
38:54Portia Woodman leads her team to victory!
38:57Frank Bunce was on one shoulder.
38:59Portia.
39:00Louis.
39:01Polly was there on one leg.
39:03Oh, like, it was just the moment that we needed.
39:05It was, ah.
39:07It was terrific.
39:08Oh, wow!
39:09That's official!
39:10So good, bro.
39:11You did so good, bro.
39:12You did so good, bro.
39:13You did so good.
39:14It really sucked.
39:16Once again, the game becomes a reality when you see how the weight of a challenge is on
39:21one person.
39:22Yeah.
39:23Yeah.
39:24And I really felt to the knee and just could see that he was carrying that weight.
39:29You put everything in that.
39:30You held down the floor.
39:30I felt gutted.
39:31I felt like I let my team down.
39:35Now it feels like we're on the back foot.
39:44Kahu might have lost the first face off.
39:47We're still happy, eh, guys?
39:49But spirits are high with the arrival of their newly crowned captain.
39:53Before you enter the whare, we have a little gift to welcome our kaihoutu in the manner
39:59that is deserving of the kaihoutu.
40:01And so you will never be mistaken as anything but the kaihoutu.
40:05We present to you your crown.
40:07Oh, my gosh.
40:09Yay!
40:13Oh, my.
40:14Yay!
40:16You all right?
40:17You getting this?
40:18Eh?
40:19That is cool.
40:21A little bit of action.
40:22Yay!
40:22Yay!
40:25This is a young buck.
40:26That's cool.
40:28Coming to our party.
40:29Thank you, team.
40:30What a lovely team I've got, eh?
40:32Wonder if spirits are as high over the hill.
40:35We did it!
40:41I guess so.
40:43Yes.
40:44To come away with a win, the team is just absolutely pumped.
40:47We feel so good.
40:48And the best thing to come of that is that we got a fishing rod
40:52and dive kit for Louie to go get us some kai moana.
40:55And we got a knife!
40:57Yay!
40:59We can fill it, Vish!
41:00We can actually eat this!
41:03And then I realise, ultimately, I've got to make a really big decision.
41:10First thing I have to do is do this.
41:12This is crazy.
41:14Who's the strongest in our team that we want to put up?
41:21It is absolute tumbleweeds.
41:24Everyone's looking at their feet.
41:28Nobody wants to leave, including myself.
41:31So hard.
41:32Everyone's strong.
41:33Does anyone feel confident with puzzles?
41:40Do you know what I'm scared of most?
41:42I'm really scared that I'm going to hold them back
41:46because they've got this lame duck that they're having to sort of carry through everything.
41:50I don't want that to happen.
41:51I don't want them to be held back.
41:53I feel very strongly about this team.
41:56And I just want everyone to go all the way.
41:59And do we want to sacrifice one of us?
42:01And if we do, I fully understand that it should be me because I'm injured.
42:05It looks like the captain's love buzz hasn't lasted long at either camp.
42:10The vibes are low.
42:13All of us are pretty stressed because we don't know who's going to go up for elimination.
42:19Who do we think is going up tonight?
42:20Like, if we were to guess, do you think that there's someone that...
42:23Well, it's Porsche deciding, right?
42:26Yeah.
42:26But, I mean, there's so many different things we'll probably...
42:29It's so nerve-wracking.
42:31I don't know what Porsche's thinking over there.
42:34I don't know if they're looking over at all of us.
42:37I don't know if they would think of me as a threat.
42:40Oh, I'd be honoured if you did.
42:42I'd be bragging for years to come.
42:45I'm worried. Like, I feel like Porsche might be like a girl's girl.
42:48Like, have all the, like, wahine's back.
42:50Or they want to take out the strongest.
42:54Do you reckon?
42:57I feel like I may have, despite my efforts, put a target on my back.
43:02Vinny, how are you feeling, bro?
43:06You know, not the best, to be honest.
43:09A part of me felt really, really responsible that we had lost.
43:15Vinny, you were the man.
43:16Yeah.
43:17Yeah, Vinny.
43:23I really wanted to encourage Vinny, because he's a sensitive guy.
43:26And I could see right off the bat, he was really upset.
43:30I can honestly say, put your hand up if you think he would have done a better job.
43:33Nah.
43:34Nah.
43:35So there's your answer, because none of us would have done a better job.
43:38Yeah.
43:38So, don't you worry about that.
43:40They would have won earlier.
43:42Yeah.
43:42Yeah, I mean that. I actually mean that.
43:44Simon, he's a lovely, lovely man.
43:48We're all extremely grateful to have him.
43:50Thank you, man.
43:51No, I mean it.
43:52Otherwise, you're just too hard on yourself.
43:54I actually crossed paths with Simon about 20 or so years ago.
43:59It really played a part in, you know, completely changing my life.
44:04And, um, maybe this is my only chance to tell him.
44:08I used to go to this youth group, just in New Brighton.
44:11Yep.
44:11I would have been about 14.
44:13I was probably at my naughtiest.
44:17It's a bad, I was, I was, I gave my mum a headache.
44:21You came in and you just pointed straight to me.
44:24Really?
44:24You told me to come up because you said that God was telling you that I would be a big
44:29influence one day.
44:30And, you know, I never grew up with, um, a father.
44:35I never had another man giving that confidence or belief in myself.
44:42But you, you really played a part in that.
44:47And, um, I can't, I really can't thank you enough, man, honestly.
44:52And I just had to share this with you no matter what happens tonight.
44:55That's, look, honestly, you don't know how much that means
44:58because that's why I went to those youth groups and spoke.
45:01Because I, I wondered, can I make a difference?
45:03And that's what I wanted, so.
45:04I'll tell you right now, you made a difference moment.
45:07Oh, mate.
45:09You know, who knows where I would have gone without, you know,
45:13that little bit of support there from another dude.
45:16Yeah.
45:16I hope you don't go now.
45:19We've got a lot of talking to them.
45:21No, no, no, no.
45:22Well, guys, I'm sorry to say somebody is going home.
45:26And it's time to find out who that might be.
45:34I want to be sick, to be absolutely honest.
45:38I don't know anybody.
45:40I haven't seen anything.
45:41And I have to make this decision.
45:43Like, my hands are shaking for it.
45:46I honestly have not yet.
45:48My heart is breaking right now that I have to have someone eliminated today.
46:00Next time.
46:03Tonight, one of you will be the first to fall.
46:06And I have to make this decision.
46:07Like, my hands are shaking for it.
46:08A shocking elimination.
46:11A perplexing face-off.
46:13Stand back.
46:15Oh, .
46:17I think we made the puzzle too hard this time.
46:20Look down this camera right now.
46:22And a celebrity treasure island first.
46:25Love you, Jenny.
46:26I might buy a ring soon.
