Airdate: 1997 (immediately after Kate/Peter/Lola)
Australia's favourite game, Wheel of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Lola Snowden (returning champion)
Andrew Cyphers: Once watched the show in his dreams, but unfortunately "spun up a BANKRUPT" every time, and when he spun a dollar amount...he picked a wrong letter.
Camilla Sheridan: Grandmother who is the "National Women's Belly Flop Champion" (photo included!)
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is 500, and Andrew can prove nightmares don't come true with a SURPRISE win! Here's our first puzzle:
The top dollar-value on the Wheel is now 1,000.
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is up to 2,000.
Lola leaves with $3,155 in prizes.
BONUS ROUND:
With 3,655, Camilla's first day leads to three consonants and a vowel. The Golden Wheel spins, and lands on...
Longines his-and-hers Golden Wing watches
Is this puzzle old or new? It doesn't matter as long as she solves it.
She's thinking FOR YOUR and TO but has no complete answers. After time expires, Rob just says SEE YOU LATER.

Good round, though she'll still need to do more if she wants the win. We'll pause to give Lola some Joan Weisz Leather bags, Mats Jonasson crystal sculptures, or Electrolux outdoor products.
