Airdate: Unknown (1990's Wheel)

Look at these fabulous prizes...

A Mowtown white lawn tractor worth $5,329!
A 7-night Queenstown ski holiday worth $7,240!
A Mitsubishi Lancer worth $31,167!

It's New Zealand's Favourite Game, Wheel of Fortune!

It's also the second anniversary of Phillip becoming a dad, as Lana reminds him. Is he losing his memory?

Today's contestants (all male):
Bob Burke: Fireman with four foster children, all special needs, as part of a family of six
Terry Frisby (returning with $11,769 in prizes)
Keng Han: Father of twins (and they'll be a year old in 26 days)

Phillip gives Terry a special "painting stripes" tie to add to his collection.

The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $500, and here's our first puzzle:

Round 1

THING

BOB	Terry	Keng
$235: R (x2) Lose A Turn!	$145: B (x2) $115: Y (x2) $500: S $75: N Only vowels left! Solve: Correct!
235	835

A musical toy can be faintly heard in the background while Terry is spinning.

THING

Terry solves BOYSENBERRY.

It turns out that was not a toy, but Terry's tie playing the music! It's a Christmas tie! Press a button at the bottom, and it plays Christmas music. Jingle Bells starts playing! The problem is that it goes on for 15 minutes before stopping.

$835 to spend

Avanti 18-speed mountain bike (-$551)
Kitchen and bathroom scales (-$225)
Dimensions embroidery set (-$38)
$21 remaining

Bob	Terry	Keng
235	835
	Locked in: $814 spent $21 remainder

The BONUS space doesn't play music (not much, at least), but you'll still want to spin it for an Ansett mystery weekend for two.

The top dollar-value on the Wheel is now $1,000.

Round 2

ARTIST & SONG

Bob	TERRY	Keng

	$1,000: S (x2) $500: N (x3) $530: T (x2) $215: G (x2) Lucky G! Solve: Correct!
235	2,460

Terry wants to solve after the G's, and Phillip pressures him to spin again, even telling him that some audience members are walking out. We've never had this before, have we?

ARTIST & SONG

Perfection! Terry solves THE ROLLING STONES' ANGIE.

$2,460 to spend

5-piece bedroom suite (-$1,600)
Pedigree baby equipment range (-$700)
Piano by Candlelight CD and cassette (-$70)
Cadbury chocolates (-$40)
$50 remaining

Bob	Terry	Keng
235	3,295
	Locked in: $3,224 spent $71 remainder

The top-dollar value on the Wheel is up to $2,000!

Round 3

PHRASE

Bob	Terry	KENG

625	215

PHRASE

RRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNGGGG!

This could cost us if we don't finish this. Phillip will give the Wheel a Spin, and consonants are worth $215.

Terry: K (DUD!)

Keng: M (1,110)

Only vowels left!

PHRASE

Keng solves TO COST A BOMB.

$1,110 to spend

Century luggage (-$750)
Handcrafted double duvet covers (-$285)

$41 remaining

Bob	Terry	Keng
625	3,510	1,110
	Locked in: $3,224 spent $71 remainder	Locked in: $ spent $ remainder

Terry has shown he was a tough opponent today, so Bob leaves with an Élysée 24-karat gold and steel ballpoint pen as a consolation prize.

All contestants receive the Wheel of Fortune board game.

BONUS ROUND:

Terry will just keep rolling along, and we think he could win another major prize this time. We have:

Sewing machine ($3,600)
Whiteware package ($4,200)
Lounge suite ($4,100)
Ride-on mower ($5,300)
Ski holiday ($7,200)
Mitsubishi Lancer ($31,167)

We add 3,510 to the 3,465 from earlier, and 6,975 will give Terry four consonants and a vowel. The Golden Wheel spins, and lands on...

7-night Queenstown ski holiday ($7,240)

Phillip thinks this shouldn't be a hard puzzle.

Bonus Puzzle

FAMOUS COUPLES

A small puzzle, and a small reveal from RSND, and O.

FAMOUS COUPLES

He says JO, but he has nothing else. Terry does not solve AL & PEG BUNDY, but he has $14,993 in prizes and will return next week.
