It was hosted by Gigi Sabani, Iva Zanicchi, Emanuela Folliero and Maria Teresa Ruta. It first premiered on 21 December 1983 and went off the air on 13 April 2001.

Showcase Showdown

The Big Wheel in the Italian version is played the same as in the US version (after expanded to 1 hour in 1975). The bonus for 100 points in one or two spins is ₤1,000,000 (€516.46). After 2 SCSDs, the two winners must play a spin-off to determine who will play the Showcase.

Showcase

The showcase was largely played like the American Version, hoping that the contestant make the closest bid without going over, and awarding both showcases to a player who came within ₤100,000. Starting in 1999, the showcase was played in the same way of the UK/European version, with random ranges between ₤500,000 (€258.23) and ₤2,500,000 (€1291.15), hoping that their bid fell within the selected range of the actual price without going over.
