Australia's favourite game, Wheel of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Sue Cooper
Ron Locksley
Tansy Cox (returning with $1,368 in prizes)
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 WILLIAM TELL OVERTURE.
Listen very closely, and we'll tell you about our BONUS prize! It's a pair of Sant' Andrea from Oneida cutlery sets!
The top-dollar value is increased to 1,500.
We begin our next round.
RRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNGGGG!
We're playing for a bogey right now. Rob gives the Wheel a spin, and consonants are worth 430.
Tansy: N (1,660)
Sue: P (430)
Here's another Puzzler for the home audience. Can you solve it?
The answer is HANDBALL.
The top-dollar value is now 2,500!
Sue: R (x2) (460)
Ron: T (DUD!)
Tansy: W (DUD!)
Sue: D (DUD!)
Ron: S (DUD!)
Tansy: N (x2) (Lucky N!) (2,580)
Sue: E (460)
Ron: H (x2) (950)
BONUS ROUND:
Whoops! We didn't mean to scare Tansy. No rounds today, but more help at winning a major prize like these:
Beach front Sunshine Coast holiday
Sleek modern bathroom package
Driclad above-ground pool ($4,220)
Proton Persona XLI ($19,490)
She certainly won't be scared at a $7,400 cash Jackpot! She asks if she gets a chauffeur as well. Rob will drive.
We add 2,580 to her previous 3,540 for 6,120, and Tansy can try to solve with five consonants and a vowel. The Golden Wheel spins, and lands on...
Proton Persona XLI!
She gets the second chance with this puzzle:

Ron almost spun again on Free Spin without calling a letter. Maybe he should've been allowed to do it.

PHRASE | |||||||||||||||
Ron solves A HEART TO HEART TALK.
He's honest that it's good to have a solve straight up. It would be nice to pick a Hills Industry children's play set, a Danoz Direct shaving package, or an Avanti audio package.
Ron collects the audio package.

WHERE ARE WE? | |||||||||||||||
Sue solves FAIRWAYS GREENS SAND TRAP. She couldn't spin anymore, but she can take an extra 200 if she tells us where we are.
She knows it's a golf course.
She kept clear of all the hazards, and now she's safe to shoot for 1 year of Video Ezy rentals, a home office software package, or a Tissot lady's watch.
Sue aims for the video package.

Sue solves ELEPHANT SEAL.
She's at least playing for par. By solving, Sue also gets a Toyota sewing machine, a Tosca luggage collection, or a Royal Selangor tea set.
Sue can bring the luggage on her holidays.

THING | |||||||||||||||
Ron tries to call an F, but instead he has to solve FRENCH HORN.
He'll get his hands on one more prize before he leaves, and we end with a Creola jewellery collection, a Schott Zwiesel glassware set, or a Whirlpool refrigerator.
Ron takes the refrigerator in case his own one breaks down.

She thinks RYAN, and the answer slipped from her head. The answer was RUTH RENDELL. Tansy is still at $1,368 in prizes, but she can play again.
