Wheel...of...Fortune!

Jason brings up Geri Halliwell's birthday today...but he doesn't know if she's 34 or 36.

An excuse to celebrate with some birthday money? How about a "birthday" Toss-Up?

Barbara (returning champion, won a lounge suite yesterday...and can replace the old one)
James: Hairdresser/stylist, and interestingly, has no driver's licence (What if he wins the car? He'll use the money for driving lessons.)
