AFL player Anthony Koutoufides and Natalie Lowe were announced as the winners on 28 November 2006, while chess player Arianne Caoili and Carmelo Pizzino finished in second place.A controversy occurred in the semifinal round when judge Todd McKenney stated that he believed Arianne Caoili had received professional dance lessons prior to the competition; Caoili denied this.
