Wheel Of Fortune! Where one spin of the Wheel could twirl you into some fabulous fortune.
Today's contestants are:
Lillian: From Shetland, and she considers herself British rather than Scottish
Rav: "A bit of a raver" who has a family supermarket in Coventry
Karen: Mother of one who's into dramatics, from Stoke-on-Trent
The top value on the Wheel is 1,000, and we're sure you'll hit it at least once on your little adventure, especially if you can buzz in for this round.
Question: In which year is Hong Kong to be handed back to China?
Rav: 1997 (Correct!)
Your choice will be obvious between the second BANKRUPT or the second 1,000 space. After Carol presents a vanity case with matching holdall bag, Nicky votes to place the token on 300, and our next round begins:
Question: Which nut gives marzipan its flavour?
Rav: Almond (Correct!)
Our players can only rave about a third 1,000 space and double the points, plus Carol offers us a Swiss watch with quartz movement that you'll love! Remember that the token is on 200 for this round only!
Question: How many sides has a hexagon?
Rav: 6 (Correct!)
It's not over yet, as we've added a fourth 1,000 space to the Wheel!
Nicky begins the Speed Round with one last spin. Consonants are worth 800 doubled, and someone must buzz in to start.
Question: What famous battle was fought in 1805?
Rav: S (1,600)
Karen: M (x2) (3,200)
Lillian: G (DUD!)
Rav: C (3,200)
Karen: D (4,800)
Lillian: R (x2) (3,200)
BONUS ROUND:
Karen might be sad that she still hasn't solved a puzzle. This is her one chance, and it will be for a top prize:
A safari to Kenya
A £4,000 Jackpot
A Kia Pride family hatchback 1.3 litre Saloon
Karen wants a car, and we want her to solve a puzzle!
Wheel Of Fortune! Where one spin of the Wheel could twirl you into some fabulous fortune.
The best adventures await on your safari to Kenya!
Or you might keep it simple with a £4,000 Jackpot.
But a Kia Pride family hatchback 1.3 litre Saloon is simply the best!
