Wheel Of Fortune! Where one spin of the Wheel could twirl you into some fabulous fortune. Today's contestants are:
Karen Karn: Used to be a private investigator, from Surbiton
Steve Rudy: Police officer who enjoys cooking, from Liverpool
Veronica Boyne: Studying business management, from Scottish Borders
The top value on the Wheel is 1,000. There's no way to figure this out in advance. Only at the right time can you solve for a £100 bonus. Buzz in for Round 1:
PRESENTER/TV SHOW:

Karen solves JANE MCDONALD STAR FOR A NIGHT.
She has a long road ahead, but she can cool off with a prize, such as a washing machine.
Karen chooses the TV and video combo.
Don't let the extra BANKRUPT burn the pot. Serve a culinary delight with help from the extra 1,000 space! Something else you can't figure out right away is the mystery prize. Pick it up from 750 and you will know if you solve the same puzzle.
And Round 2 is ready for you:

Question: If a golfer plays an air shot, what has happened?
Veronica: He's missed it (Correct!)
C L _ _ R

D _ C K S
Steve solves CLEAR THE DECKS.
Make way for the prizes! We need enough room to show him a VHS package.
Even with that, he'll take the TV and video combo.
You'll get to the top with help from a third 1,000 space and double the points! If you can solve an extra puzzle though, you will earn an additional £100. Round 3 begins:

Question: The city of Tijuana is in which Central American country?
Veronica: Mexico (Correct!)

Veronica solves THE OLYMPIC GAMES.
Will she get her gold medal in the form of a £100 bonus?
CLASSIC FILM:
_ H A _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ E
She immediately misses the first word by guessing SHANGHAI. The puzzle is CHARIOTS OF FIRE.
She'll still be appreciated regardless, and she's entitled to a prize. Maybe she'll be the one to pick a golf club set.
Her pick is the TV and video combo.
Over to the next puzzle:
FOOD & DRINK:
_ _ _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _
BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!
Though we don't know if we're going fast enough, so John will give the Wheel a Final Spin. Consonants are worth...800 doubled. Hands ready for control?
Question: Which country's cars are identified by the letter S?
Veronica: Sweden (Correct!)
Veronica: T (x4) (the dings do not sound on the last two).
Karen: S
Steve: N (x3)
Veronica: M (DUD!)
Karen: L

Karen solves STILTON AND VINTAGE PORT for 3,200.
Slightly more than the rest as we can confirm by selection. One more for her, and it may be the wine collection.
She'll take the vacuum cleaner.
All contestants receive the Wheel of Fortune souvenir watch.
£2,000 BONUS ROUND:
Veronica can thank Round 1 for giving her a huge advantage. She's here and can claim the cash by solving this puzzle:
SPORTING HERO:
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
Does she feel lucky with DRTNHA:
R _ _ _ R T _
_ A _ _ _ _
She gets ROBERTO, but has no chance of solving ROBERTO BAGGIO. She, like everyone else, leaves with a TV and video combo in addition to the souvenir watch.
