WHEEL OF FORTUNE (UK)
1/6/2024
Today's contestants are: Becca, Kurt, & Soraya!
Ding!
I'm sure Becca would enjoy a CANDLELIT DINNER ON A BEACH!
Ding!
Soraya wants to GO HORSE RIDING TOGETHER!
Ding!
Becca would ENJOY A COUPLE'S MASSAGE!
Here are today's contestants!
Becca is from Swansea. She's a civil servant. She met her fiancée two weeks before lockdown, so there was a lot of texting.
Kurt is from Newcastle upon Tyne. He's been a program inside lead for a month. He's got a spiritual connection with alpacas when a friend told him he looked like one.
Soraya is from Suffolk. She's a police analyst, although she retired from thirty years as a bobby on the beat around 18 months ago.
Graham states that all players keep any money won across rounds, and that a player was chosen at random to spin first.
We were talking about some alpacas earlier, but I'm sure Soraya appreciates some YAPPY LITTLE CHIHUAHUAS more.
After the first round, whoever is the lowest scorer spins first.
If a contestant calls a correct letter on one of the Prize tokens, located on £100 and £100, the contestant automatically wins the prize. The prize is not added to their score.
Becca claimed a two-night stay for six people in a private tree house with luxury hot tub at Ramside Hall.
Becca, try avoiding OVERSHARING ON SOCIAL MEDIA that you've picked up another £1,425.
Ding!
Becca avoids the SMOKED MACKEREL SALAD.
Ding!
Soraya tries some PEELED PAR-BOILED EGG. She tries to correct EGG to EGGS, but it's still ruled as wrong.
Becca is aware of some PEELED HARD-BOILED EGGS.
Ding!
Kurt finally gets on the board with some MICROWAVED FISH PIE.
Whoever wins this next round gets the right to play a bonus round puzzle for a trip.
Soraya takes a CORDLESS LEAF BLOWER and makes winning the house minimum £500 a breeze!
More importantly, Soraya's playing for a seven-night all-inclusive holiday to Greece, courtesy of British Airways Holidays! It's a stay the Grecotel LUXME White Palace hotel in Crete.

Ding!
I'M NOT YOUR CHAUFFEUR, Becca. You're going to have to drive yourself to £1,000.
Ding!
Kurt has probably heard ASK YOUR MOTHER many times.
Ding!
YOU'RE NOT GOING OUT IN THAT, Kurt. Here's another £1,000 to buy better clothes.
Soraya's got a £2,500 credit to Uber Eats!
Kurt, you don't have a double CHIN WHAMMY GLAZING, but you do bank another £850.
Or, as you might know it in the U.S., Before & After. In the U.K., you might remember The Common Word? Graham gives an explanation.
Becca doesn't quite grasp the category with LEARNING TO SHEAR GERMAN SHEPHARD.
Kurt is more careful with LEARNING TO SPEAK GERMAN SHEPHERD and picks up the minimum £500.
Ding!
Becca's prepared for an UNEXPECTED HEATWAVE IN CARDIFF.
Ding!
Is this a Rhyme Time, or is Becca just that serious about SIX INCHES OF SNOW IN GLASGOW?
Ding!
Kurt's got GUSTY WINDS IN BELFAST.
