Wheel Of Fortune! Where one spin of the Wheel could twirl you into some fabulous fortune.
Wait until you hear about our prizes, a trip to Australia...
Today's contestants are:
Tamsen Hazel: In amateur dramatics, as Nicky could tell from her confident delivery; from York
Malcolm Vegas: 32-year-old who works for Leeds city council, and is a sportsman (football, cricket, table tennis, and anything)
Charlotte Thompson: 23-year-old who is a very good driver and a member of the Institute of Advanced Motorists, from Torquay in Devon
The top value on the Wheel is 1,000. We'll start spinning that old Wheel after someone answers our trivia question...
Question: Which pop star shared the credits with Queen on the chart hit Under Pressure?
Tamsen: David Bowie (Correct!)
There's a second BANKRUPT to take you offline, but a second 1,000 space offers added protection. In the source, we also find a leather handbag and briefcase. Let's put the token on 400 and look at another puzzle!
Question: The pharaohs were ancient kings of which country?
Malcolm: Egypt (Correct!)
We're not joking in this round! There's a third 1,000 space, and point values are doubled! We won't even joke about a pair of gold and pearl earrings that can be won! Our token is on 500, and our next puzzle is...
Question: In which Daniel Defoe novel is there a character called Man Fri- (interrupted)
Malcolm: Robinson Crusoe (Correct!)
We look forward to the future with a fourth 1,000 space and a bigger puzzle!
Question: In which US state is Cape Canaveral?
Charlotte: Florida (Correct!)
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
We don't have much time for a big puzzle, it seems. Nicky will give the Wheel a spin, and consonants are worth 750 doubled.
Charlotte: M (7,600)
Tamsen: R (DUD!)
Malcolm: N (x2) (3,000)
Charlotte: P (DUD!)
Tamsen: D (1,500)
Malcolm: L (x2) (6,000)
Charlotte: B (9,100)
BONUS ROUND:
We don't have diamonds or gold in the final, but Charlotte can still win a great prize!
A trip to Australia
A £5,000 Jackpot
A Suzuki jeep
The advanced driver will try for the jeep and hopefully solve this puzzle:
HRSLME may or may not work with what's revealed.

Malcolm takes the cutlery set.

Malcolm solves WATER UNDER THE BRIDGE.
He will no longer need to think about that puzzle. Malcolm will just think about a chair with matching 3-seater settee, a high tech TV and video player, and a compact disc player and Hi-Fi system.
Malcolm adds a CD player.

That's all water under the bridge for the one who needed a prize. Charlotte now gets an indoor/outdoor table tennis set, a field holiday in Amsterdam, or a patio furniture set.
Charlotte picks the trip to Amsterdam.
