Australia's favourite game, Wheel of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Ronny Schnatt (returning champion)
Scott Hall-Watson
Clara Tatiotian
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is 750, and here's our first puzzle.
Here's a Puzzler for the home audience. Can you solve it?
The answer is THE MAGIC PUDDING.
Sometimes, the little things also matter, like our BONUS of a Tissot quartz dress watch with Swiss movement.
The top-dollar value is increased to 1,500.
We begin our next round.
RRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNGGGG!
Ronny: "N for no, no, no, no, no." (No.
)
Scott: R (DUD!)
Clara: L (385)
Ronny: F (DUD!)
Scott: D (1,045)
Clara: B (DUD!)
Ronny: M (1,135)
Here's another Puzzler for the home audience. Can you solve it?
The answer is WEDDING CAKE. (If only Kim had one more game...)
The top-dollar value is now 2,500!
Ronny: T (DUD!)
Scott: R (1,265)
Clara: S (x2) (Lucky S!) (825)
Ronny: F (DUD!)

Proton Persona GLI Aeroback ($15,990)
And we'll save the chyron for the $3,500 cash Jackpot.
With 2,110, Clara just barely earns three consonants and a vowel. The Golden Wheel spins, and lands on...
Proton Persona GLI Aeroback!
We have another big puzzle.
TRS, and E do surprisingly little here.

Scott solves AS BLIND AS A BAT for half the car.

Clara solves ? LINING ? SCREEN ? SPOON. We can line her score with 200 more if she fills in the blank.
She guesses sun, but the word is silver. What's a "sun spoon"?
Still, there is a silver lining. Clara now gets a prize, and it will be a complete camping package, a food waste disposal unit, or a Fujifilm camera package.
Clara will take the camera.

Clara solves AMBASSADOR.
But she could certainly become a prize connoisseur. Clara's going to think about a Trevor Opray oil pastel, a Whirlpool programmable dishwasher, and a telecommunications system.
Clara settles with a dishwasher because she's getting married.

The consolation prizes are a Danoz Direct picnic set and Parker Pens.
Ronny rolls away with the prizes that he has won.
BONUS ROUND:
Clara can now have some screen time to herself...though let's not overlook Rob, the puzzle board, and these major prizes:
Great Barrier Reef island holiday
Australian-made therapeutic bed
Proton Persona GLI Aeroback ($15,990)
And we'll save the chyron for the $3,500 cash Jackpot.
With 2,110, Clara just barely earns three consonants and a vowel. The Golden Wheel spins, and lands on...
Proton Persona GLI Aeroback!
