Chances (TV Series)
''Chances'' is an Australian prime time soap opera which aired from 29 January 1991 to 30 December 1992 on Nine Network. The show was initially pitched by production company Beyond International, as a straightforward drama revolving around a middle-class family whose lives are transformed when they win $3 million in the lottery. However, the network requested raunchier, more erotic storylines in the vein of ''Number 96'' and '' The Box'', with contractually-obligated nudity and sex scenes. Later episodes diverged considerably from the show's original premise, with increasingly bizarre plots involving man-eating plants, devil worshippers and neo-Nazi cults.Albert Moran, ''Moran's Guide to Australian TV Series'', AFTRS 1993 p 111 The show has developed a cult following. Series history Development ''Chances'' was first made as a two-hour pilot in 1988, which remained unseen until the show's 2021 DVD release.

The Finder (film)
''The Finder'' is a 2001 Australian film. Plot An ex-cop sets himself up as "a finder" and gets involved in a mysterious kidnapping. Production The film was an idea of producer-writer Phil Avalon's. It was shot in 2000 with privately raised finance. Reception The film was finished by December 2000. It was sold to Israel, China, Russia and the CIR and was screened at the American Film Market in February 2001. It had a one off screening at Avalon's own bar in Sydney before being released on DVD. The critic for ''Screen Daily'' said that: Unable to unlock the potential of their sun/surf/sleuth concept, Avalon and veteran director Frank Shields instead deliver a compendium of overfamiliar situations, characters and dialogue, with an occasional ill-judged sequence of 'comic relief'. A committed bunch of talented actors do their best to energise an otherwise limp affair whose true home may well prove to be off-peak cable television.
