Returning
Teams and Competitors |
|
Final winners Diamond Valley Devils (Victoria) would return in later
It's A Knockout series but would be known subsequently as Eltham. |
|
Additional Information |
|
This programme comprised six games rather than the normal seven.
The winners received a cheque for $20,000 which would be donated to the
charity of their choice.
As
the series had been such a ratings winner for Channel Ten, repeats of the 1985
series of It's A Knockout started the following week in the same slot!
