Australia's favourite game, Wheel of Fortune!
Sophie's wearing a witch's hat for this special Halloween show! She doesn't have the wart, however. If she and Rob both refuse, the Deeks will always wear it.
Today's contestants:
Kenneth "Ken" Enoth (?)
Julianne Lynch (returning champion)
Susanne "San" Morris
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 SHERLOCK HOLMES DOCTOR WATSON.
We're about to trick you into winning a treat from us! If you spin the BONUS and call a good letter, you're getting 12 books from the For Dummies collection!
The top-dollar value is increased to 1,500.
After a long wait, we finally got to San, and she can start our next round!
Here's another Puzzler for the home audience. Can you solve it?
The answer is CRIME DOES NOT PAY.
The top-dollar value is now 2,500!
The consolation prizes are a Bodum tea set with 5 packs of tea and Parker Pens.
BONUS ROUND:
Julianne could use a vacation when she's done (unless she can keep on playing). To her collection, she could add one of these major prizes:
Niagara Therapy Australian-made queen-size bed ($7,945)
4-day Lizard Island cruise ($5,652)
Proton Persona XLI ($19,690)
We've brought her enough trouble, so she deserves a $14,300 Jackpot with the car!
We add 3,395 to her previous 2,480 for 5,875, giving Julianne a better chance with four consonants and a vowel. The Golden Wheel spins, and lands on...

Julianne didn't have such a good sleep last night, and understandably so.
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is 750, and here's our first puzzle.

Perfection! Ken solves TRICK OR TREAT.
If we make the Deeks wear that wart, he might not want to tell us about any of a jewellery collection, a Royal Selangor wine accessory kit, or a Yashica compact camera.
Whatever goes on back there, Ken's picking a camera.

TITLE |
Double perfection! Julianne solves THE MOUSE TRAP.
Clearly, she's no dummy. She was able to solve that puzzle and take an Electrolux vacuum cleamer, a Sierra home software package, or a Royal Selangor glass bowl with her.
Julianne grabs the vacuum for her mum.

San reads what's on the board.
She didn't have to worry at all! San is in good shape and is picking up one of a Dentons bedding package, a pair of Waterman pens, or an Esen home office furniture centre.
San now has a home office.

Julianne solves MADAME TUSSAUD'S. We could've treated these players to a fifth round.
For Julianne, it could be better that we end it now. Major prizes await after she takes a Meyer cookware collection, a Victory curtains/blinds selection, or a 5-night Queensland/Magnetic Island holiday.
Julianne picks the holiday.

She has FRANKENSTEIN, but she thinks BRAM STROKER'S for the first part. She was thinking of Bram Stoker and Dracula, but we were thinking of MARY SHELLEY'S FRANKENSTEIN.
Julianne stays at $4,756 in prizes, and we'll try not to scare her tomorrow. She needs that car!
