Toss-Up Time!
Go!
Andrew solves FOOTLOOSE AND FANCY FREE and will begin...
...Australia's favourite game, Wheel of Fortune! Where one lucky spin could lead the way to $1,000,000! This is...
Million Dollar Wheel of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Peta Hannam (returning with $1,425 in cash)
Andrew Howie: Skiing instructor (who had to give up because he ran out of money, so he's here to win)
Sarah Quinlan: "Rock chick" who plans to play in the Melbourne region
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $750, but we can't be a Million Dollar show without a Million Dollar Wedge! Here's our first puzzle:
Sarah solves SNAKES ON A PLANE.
Here's a Puzzler for the home audience. Can you solve it?
Go!
Peta solves TO WIN BY A WHISKER to grab another $500 prize.
The top-dollar value is increased to $1,500.
Perfection! Sarah solves BRAD PITT AND ANGELINA JOLIE. She was this close to the lucky J...
Peta has some work to do in this round.
DING DING DING DING DING DING!
That Wheel has changed hands enough times, it seems. Tim will now give the last spin, and consonants are worth $150.
The answer to the last home viewer puzzle was HUGH JACKMAN. Time to give some more money away!
Go!
Sarah solves EMPEROR PENGUIN to take control...again.
The top-dollar value is now $2,500!
Tim will give the Wheel a spin. Consonants are worth $580, and Sarah will start.
Sarah: N (580)
Peta: S (760)
Andrew: T (2,160)
Sarah: G (1,160)
Peta: R (x2) (1,340)

Sarah: B (DUD!)
Peta: H (DUD!)
Andrew: C (3,320)
Sarah: H (Repeat)
Peta: L (x2) (1,920)
Peta solves MAIL SORTING CLERK. She took some extra cash, but this is where it ends.
BONUS ROUND:
It was never in doubt, was it? Sarah is the winner, and she could win one of our major prizes including...
Le Meridien Port Vila 7-night lagoon holiday ($6,598)
Kia Rondo 7 ($32,606)
Sarah spun a total of 5,120, which will give her four consonants and a vowel. The Golden Wheel spins, and lands on...
Blue Lagoon Cruises Fiji cruise ($9,295)
We hope she's good enough for this puzzle!
