Wheel Of Fortune! Where one spin of the Wheel could twirl you into some fabulous fortune.
And here comes your new hostess with 26 letters ready! It's Carol Smillie!
Let's see if we can make Carol proud. Someone ought to win one of these prizes:
A 16-day tour of Canada including the Rockies!
Or cash in with television's £4,000 Jackpot!
How about a 4-door 1.2 Vauxhall Nova?
Tonight's contestants are:
Tina Chayto: Mother of two, from Littlehampton, West Sussex
Mike Lagonen: Father of one who works for British Rail, from Doncaster, South Yorkshire
Lorraine Hoggett (?): In college studying business, also into cheerleading; from Glasgow
The top value on the Wheel is 1,000. It might be an opportunity for Lorraine to practise her cheerleading. We'll see as the game begins...
Suddenly, we're at the speed game. Nicky's going to have a lot of unused questions, isn't he?
It's time to give the Wheel a spin! Consonants are worth 1,000, and Tina will begin. Anyone can take it!
Tina: T (x2) (2,000)
Mike: S (1,000)
Lorraine: K (x2) (2,000)
Tina: R (3,000)
Mike: M (2,000)
Lorraine: P (DUD!)
Tina: L (4,000)
Mike: F (DUD!)
Lorraine: D (3,000)
BONUS ROUND:
She's stuck on the first word, and she does not solve JASON DONOVAN. Lorraine still leaves with the watches, brass bed, Lisbon trip, and the souvenirs.
