I always love when new clips of OK show up, much less a full episode.  It's probably my favorite foreign version of Price, even though I don't speak Italian.  This was a great episode, but I do have a couple of questions.  I'd read through an OK fan site about the guess the showcase game that Iva was doing at the end of the episode, but I'm not sure exactly how it worked.  Second, Iva did three commercials during the episode.  The first two, for a mattress company and shoe designer, didn't have the "promotional message" graphic with them like the last one for a magazine did.  Could someone explain the reason behind that?

The first two are televendite (teleshopping in english?)

The first two commercials were televendite, infomercials. They wanted you to call a number and order the product right then. 
The third was a regular commercial, (it's not offering you to buy the magazine directly)

For the final showcase: at the time there was a "Guess The Showcase" promotion.   
During the final showcases round, only the price of the winner's showcase was revealed. The loser's showcase was offered to a home viewer contest at the end of the show.  If nobody guessed the showcase's price, it would roll over to the next day.  (the 95,110,000 on the screen is the price of the lot before the new showcase is added. The phone player must add up the lot with the new showcase)
