Sale of the Century (Australia; July 21, 1995)

Let's focus on the living room set days of Ausralia's richest quiz. This one comes from around the show's 15th anniversary, and while I don't have the episode taking place on the day celebrating it, you can find the 90-minute special elsewhere on KZbin.
But as for the game, three new challengers (Ed, Barbara, and Cameron) are ready to work their way to the Winner's Board. Who will succeed and what will they win?

This was the gold standard of game shows. Please bring it back

[@jaredjlinden]

It’s a great format - definitely worth a revival.

[@syc9675]

Really wish that we bring back this show. At least it’s a fun show to watch

[@linnag1210]

I remember watching this show when I was a kid, good memories

[@anonleft]

Eek, the pokie game is on the nose

[@syc9675]

I remembered watching this show back in the days. It was fun to watch and that the host was friendly. I missed watching Sale more and more with every passing year.

[@datwistyman]

Wish they would bring this show back I used to love it as a kid 😁

[@alitanicholas9579]

Yep. Even once a week, it would be GREAT!

[@stephenm4819]

Ed said Mercury was the smallest planet, now that Pluto is no longer a Planet he is correct and should be awarded the points.

[@tomcroydonfrommtthomas4719]

Nicky Buckley has a disability. She has one leg longer than the other

[@juniorjuniordibo]

In that time, Pluto still the planet until 2006.

Body Builder was Sonny Schmidt who went on to win the 1995 Olympia. In 2000 he was arrested for importing cocaine from Mexico. He did 3 years jail. Sadly he would die of cancer in 2004, aged 50.

[@WorldPeace-AdamNeira]

I was a contestant on Sale of the Century in mid 1992. (Won one night, $1500 cash, dining table and a camera.). Glenn Ridge was the host. It would be fun to be able to access/buy? the episodes of the two shows I was on. Do you know if old tapes/records are available from the Australian version of SOTC?

[@xmanval2]

Nah I think Fremantlemedia has your episode maybe contact them and they might can find it

did they film 5 episodes in a day?

@ 7:23, If $ale of the Century Could've Stayed with the Famous Faces Format past 1984 (and the show didn't get cancelled past 1989), John Mahoney might be placed on the Fame Game Board in both the US and Australian Versions along with other Celebrities in the USA could pop up Down Under in the Fame Game Board of Aussie $ale.

A bit of trivia. Nicky Buckley has a disability. She has one leg longer than the other

[@Droidzi]

OMG - the ads!

[@MrShieldsy100]

According to Wikipedia, Cameron would go on to win the lot on the 1st August 1995, totalling over $360,000. Would you happen to have this episode at all. If not, that's OK, I'm merely curious.

[@theguywiththegames1594]

I do not. Interesting bit of knowledge though.

[@MrShieldsy100]

The Guy with the Games Are any of the episodes that you have still to upload ones where the champion plays for the lot. I’m not asking you to upload them, just curious about your collection of episodes 😀
