It's the greatest wheel around, Wheel of Fortune!

Burgo and Adriana talk about the new game set for the first bit, and thank the network for it.

Today's contestants (all female):
Lyn Purkus: Bingo caller, Runcorn, QLD
Debra Thompson: Lab technician
Sam-Alisha O'Brien (Returning with $3,937 in prizes)

The top-dollar value on the Wheel is $400, and we begin Round 1:
