Australia's favourite game, Wheel of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Adrienne Veller
Nick Bryant
Raaz Sarhi (returning champion)
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is 750, and here's our first puzzle.
That's enough noise for this round. Quiet down so Nick can hear about a Emma Page jewellery collection, a JNL microwave oven, or a cyclone gardening package!
Here's a Puzzler for the home audience. Can you solve it?
The answer is RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS.
Nick wants to be red hot himself, and maybe he could win our BONUS of a Tissot sapphire/crystal diver's watch!
The top-dollar value is increased to 1,500.
We begin our next round.
Here's another Puzzler for the home audience. Can you solve it?
The answer is THE JUNGLE BOOK.
The top-dollar value is now 2,500!
RRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNGGGG!

Adrienne: T (x2) (860)
BONUS ROUND:
Total home workout centre
Therapeutic massage bed
Proton Satria GTI ($27,690)
We've also just reached an even $5,000 cash Jackpot!

"N for noisy?" "No, but you described the audience to a T."
When Adrienne gets her turn back, she asks to buy an O, but since she has no money, it is ignored and she has a spin.

Raaz looked like he fell asleep before calling the S.
And then after the C, he asks to buy a Y. Rob points out that it's not a vowel, so he changes to I.

Rob's excited ...but he declared victory too early. Adrienne's silent until she solves NASHVILLE TENNESSEE two seconds late, and Rob is clearly in disbelief.
Adrienne remains with her current prizes and will play again tomorrow.
