Wheel Of Fortune! Where one spin of the Wheel could twirl you into some fabulous fortune.
We've got some important contestants, and they know it's important to win a convertible car and a £10,000 cash fortune!
Today's contestants are:
Catherine Steer: Police constable, from Carlton (?)
Jim Hall: Paramedic, from Ashington
Julianne Grill: Nursing sister, from Cornwall
The top value on the Wheel is 1,000. Between these three jobs, we wish they would all win, but only one will make it to the final. Who will it be?
Question: What nationality was Vincent Van Gogh?
Julianne: Dutch (Correct!)
Will that second BANKRUPT catch you, or will you gain speed from the second 1,000 space? We now speed to Carol who presents an opal/diamond/gold Victorian-style ring. Is 1,000 a good spot for the prize token? Is this a good puzzle?
We'll play another round, so find those letters before this puzzle is going, going, gone!
Question: Which island is the setting for the television series Bergerac?
Jim: Jersey (Correct!)
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
(The camera cuts away to the puzzle board during the spin, possibly a penalty spin that was edited out.)
Jim: H (12,700)
BONUS ROUND:
Is Jim's day just going to get better? He could now win a convertible car and a £10,000 cash fortune!
He'll have to solve this short puzzle:
