Wheel Of Fortune! Where one spin of the Wheel could twirl you into some fabulous fortune.
Today's contestants are:
Pamela (Pam) Truby: Mother of three who is fond of game shows but hasn't been on one before, from Aberdeen (originally from Durham)
Ian Murray: Almost has a connection with Pam (but he can't figure it out himself), from Allendale
Heather (last name not given): Does a little tap dancing, and has a lucky Loch Ness Monster with her; from Plymouth (but is part Scottish and Cornish)
The top value on the Wheel is 1,000. It's not aqua marine, but it compliments Carol's gold accessories. Will our contestant in the red be first to buzz in?
Question: On which island is Parkhurst Prison?
Ian: Isle of Wight (Correct!)
We'll think of how that second BANKRUPT got here later. Now, we must keep an eye on the second 1,000 space. We also have an eye on Carol with a pair of men's gold cuff links and onyx tie pin, and the prize token on 250. We move to the next round!
Question: Where on your body would you find the fibula?
Pam: In your leg (Correct!)
Pam wants to fix her low score, and we a third 1,000 space and double point values! Again, we treat the eyes to Carol with an Austrian crystal accessory set. Nicky's token goes on 250, and here's the next puzzle:
Question: What character did Lewis Collins play in the TV series The Professionals?
Ian: Bodie (Correct!)
Back to Nicky, who's ready to give the Wheel one last spin. Consonants are worth 500 doubled, and the one who buzzes in with an answer will start.
Question: What is celebrated in the USA on the 4th of July?
Pam: Independence Day (Correct!)
Pam: S (x2) (2,000)
Ian: R (x2) (2,000)
Ian says SWEET AND SOUR PORK CHOPS and laughs. It might not be too bad.
Heather: W (x2) (2,000)
Pam: T (3,000)
Ian: F (DUD!)
Heather: C (DUD!)
Pam: D (4,000)
Ian: J (DUD!)
Heather: N (x3) (5,000)
Pam: P (5,000)
Ian: K (3,000)
BONUS ROUND:
Heather doesn't like the thought of leaving empty-handed, so she has one chance at any of these big prizes:
A South Pacific and Tahiti holiday
A £4,000 Jackpot
A 2-door Vauxhall Nova family saloon
Heather picks the car. Can she solve a puzzle?
SRTMNE gives her some good letters:
Wheel Of Fortune! Where one spin of the Wheel could twirl you into some fabulous fortune.

Your cheque for a £4,000 Jackpot will take you out of the red!
When do you want to be red? In a 2-door Vauxhall Nova family saloon!

But he still likes Steve. Even if he didn't, maybe he would still get a wing chair, a trip to Malta, or a "tall boy" grandfather clock.
Ian ends with the grandfather clock.
