Xenides co-hosted the Australian version of long-running gameshow<em> Wheel Of Fortune<\/em>, with Ernie Sigley, Tony Barber, John Burgess and  John Elliot. At the time, she was once the longest serving co-host of a  TV gameshow anywhere in the world, lasting 18 years on the production. I know this isn&#8217;t exactly  <em>movie<\/em>-related news, but I grew up with Adriana on my TV, and like a nice  warm blanket she became part of the establishment: this is a personal thing. Her position on the show afforded her a particularly powerful fashion platform, with which to show off local clothing designers wares. This fashion identity made her famous across the country.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Xenides had health issues in later years, and died today after complications from a ruptured intestine. Xenides&#8217; family have asked the Liverpool Hospital where she was being treated to release no further details.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Adriana Xenides was 54.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sad news in the Aussie TV community this evening, with news out of Sydney that&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":48482,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[213],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12570","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-obituary"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","covernews-featured":"","covernews-medium":"","profile_24":"","profile_48":"","profile_96":"","profile_150":"","profile_300":"","sow-carousel-default":""},"author_info":{"display_name":"Rodney Twelftree","author_link":"https:\/\/www.fernbyfilms.com\/author\/rodney\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fernbyfilms.com\/category\/film-general\/obituary\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Obituary<\/a>","tag_info":"Obituary","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fernbyfilms.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12570","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fernbyfilms.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fernbyfilms.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fernbyfilms.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/48482"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fernbyfilms.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12570"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.fernbyfilms.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12570\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fernbyfilms.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12570"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fernbyfilms.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12570"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fernbyfilms.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12570"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
