Jamie Taylor: Film buff, from London

The top value on the Wheel is 1,000, and plenty of points ought to fill you, but why not put a £100 prize on top? Solve this puzzle at the right time to win it!
Question: Heather Mills is engaged to which ex-Beatle?
Wendy: Sir Paul McCartney (Correct!)
Wendy hasn't figured out the puzzle yet.
Question: What is the single European currency called?

Louise: Stephen Hendry (Correct!)
Jamie solves PAUL WELLER DAYS OF SPEED. He was confident about that, but will he also score the £100 bonus? There's another puzzle below!
There's still one more chance to score, and the points are still doubled!
Question: Name one of the six lottery machines used to collect the numbers for the National Lottery.
BONUS ROUND:
