Toss-Up Time!
Go!
Margaret solves IT WAS LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT 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:
Sarah Quinlan (returning with $13,255 in cash and prizes)
Adam Morgan: Meteorologist and also involved with the Aussie Open
Margaret Conway: Studying events management
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $750, and we hope you'll fall in love with the Million Dollar Wedge! Now take a look at our first puzzle:
Adam solves LIKE A RAT UP A DRAINPIPE.
Here's a Puzzler for the home audience. Can you solve it?
Go!
Adam solves A SENSE OF HUMOUR for an extra $500.
The top-dollar value is increased to $1,500.
I just know what's going to happen after those rounds.
DING DING DING DING DING DING!
Yep. We played so long that Tim must give the Wheel a Spin. Consonants are worth $310, and Adam begins.
Adam: T (DUD!)
Margaret: S (x2)
Sarah: N (850)
Adam: R (x2) (1,260)
Margaret: D (x2) (310*)
Margaret solves A DOZEN RED ROSES. Naturally, the Z would be the lucky letter.
Our last home viewer puzzle solution was MAMMA MIA HERE I GO AGAIN. This one, you'll find out on Monday.
Go!
Sarah solves BOXING MATCH.
The top-dollar value is now $2,500!
Tim will give the Wheel a spin. Consonants are worth $385, and again, Sarah will start the last round.
Sarah: N (1,235)
Adam: T (x3) (1,645)
Margaret: H (x2) (385)
Sarah: G (1,620)
Adam: M (x2) (2,030) (He says NIGHT AT THE before getting buzzed out.)
Margaret solves NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM.
BONUS ROUND:
Less predictable than last night, but Margaret is this game's winner! Now, she'll look at some major prizes:
Spa World 5-person spa ($6,750)
Kia Rondo 7 ($32,606)
With 4,355, Margaret will pick four consonants and a vowel. The Golden Wheel spins, and lands on...
Echo from All Power Industries gardening package ($6,000)
Let's solve one more puzzle this week!
