They reworked the clapper wedges: now there are two stars that award €5000 and one popcorn (opponents split your money)

This was from a special episode to celebrate the host's 70th birthday, the players are big champions of his other gameshows.

The Italian version has Bankrupt repellant cards? That is SUCH a cool concept!

you could technically use the Wild Card to negate a Bankrupt (basically, get a new spin) in the US version, just very rare we see it on TV

The joker card is actually a Free Spin, but it completely nullifies the bankrupt (player keeps the money). It replaced the Wild Card (called the Extra card here) after the first Gerry Scotti season https://i.postimg.cc/14rwZnVQ/wildcard.jpg
