It's Australia's favourite game, Wheel of Fortune!
Burgo is curious about the material in Adriana's suit.
Today's contestants:
Scott McCarten: Travel consultant who likes going busking (even dressed up in ladies' clothes and did an act around a mall), from Manningham
Diana Maerchel: Secretary who'd like to ride a donkey around Egypt (because it's different)
Sandy Sanderson (returning with a total of $9,641)
She then tries to ask for a Y on BANKRUPT.
The top dollar-value on the Wheel is now $1,000.
And...surprise! We're out of time, so Burgo must give the Wheel a spin. Consonants are worth $270, and Sandy starts.
Sandy: T (1,365)
Scott: R (270)
Diana: D (960)
Sandy: (Buzz out!) (He says F too late.)
Scott: S (DUD!)
Diana: L (DUD!)
Sandy: F (DUD!)
Scott: N (DUD!)
Diana: B (DUD!)
Sandy: C (DUD!)
Scott: G (DUD!)
Diana: Y (x2) (1,230)
Diana solves JURY DUTY.
BONUS ROUND:
Having secured a score of 1,950, Scott is grounded with just two consonants and a vowel. The Golden Wheel spins, and lands on...
Niagara Therapy Australian-made double bed ($6,040)
He arrives at his final puzzle:
Exciting prizes just waiting to be won, including a new Hyundai Lantra GL!
