I know this is a long shot, but since this is a Wheel of Fortune forum, someone might have what I'm looking for.
In 1996, my grandma (Laurel Osbourne) was on the Australian Wheel of Fortune. It was during the 6 months that Tony Barber hosted, though the Golden Wheel was back by this point. She appeared sometime in October-November 1996. She was on for 2 nights, and became champion at the end of the 1st night. She was in the blue position on the 1st night, and the red position on the second night. In the 1st show, she came within a peg or two of playing for the Hyundai Lantra Sportwagon (the car on offer at the time) Here are the puzzles (from what I know of) from the various shows.
1st SHOW
R1 - BY THE SAME TOKEN (PHRASE)
R2 - AMERICA - A HORSE WITH NO NAME (ARTIST & SONG)
R3 - AUDREY HEPBURN (PERSON)
BONUS ROUND - CHIROPRACTOR (OCCUPATION)
2nd SHOW
R1 - A TOWN LIKE ALICE (TITLE)
R2 - RANDY AND DENNIS QUAID (FAMILY)
R3 - DONKEY (ANIMAL)
(Don't know the bonus puzzle)
Mind you, this is pretty much all from memory. If anyone knows any tape traders or anything like that, or if someone knows someone who has it, it would be very much appreciated, because my grandma turned 80 about 1 month ago, and we are all heading over to Perth in about 1 week and a half to celebrate with her, and I would genuinely love to show her the episode, as she didn't record it the first time she was on, and the video that I had of it, has long since been lost.
