Australia's favourite game, Wheel of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Scott Frys
Belinda Field (returning with $5,378 in prizes)
Jayne-Maree Sedgman
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is 750, and here's our first puzzle.
Rob plugs the Cash Car & Stars giveaway after the break, and a home viewer is about to win a Proton Satria GTI worth $27,690!
This is certainly not the last of our BONUS prizes, of course. We also think we could probably fit a few of them inside a pair of Tosca leather document cases.
The top-dollar value is increased to 1,500.
We begin our next round.
RRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNGGGG!
It's the "bicentennial bell", and Rob will have to give the Wheel a spin. Consonants are worth 150.
Jayne-Maree: P (3,910)
The top-dollar value is now 2,500!
Rob will give the Wheel a spin. Consonants are worth 385, and Scott starts.
Scott: N (385)
Belinda: L (x2) (770)
BONUS ROUND:
Proton Persona XLI ($18,690)
With 4,780, Belinda has once again earned four consonants and a vowel. The Golden Wheel spins, and lands on...
4 Pierre Cardin dress and sports watches ($3,660)
Will it be as easy as her last puzzle?
