Australia's favourite game, Wheel of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Nicole Tisse (returning with $2,212 in prizes)
Kathie Pilgrim
Stuart Jenkins
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is 750.
Kathie reads what's on the board.
Now comes the more civilized selection of a Australasia care package, a lawn maintenance package, or a DVD theatre package.
She rushes for the DVD package.
Here's an Animal Puzzler for the home audience. Can you solve it?
The answer is GREAT DANE.
It will be great, but is it the way you would want it? You can flip over one of the Mystery Wedges to find a BANKRUPT, or a 6-day Phuket holiday worth $10,000!
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is upgraded to 1,500.
Kathie and Stuart landed on the same Mystery Wedge.
Nicole solves THE FIRST ASCENT OF MOUNT EVEREST.
As she builds up again, she could use a few breaks. Time to choose a jewellery package, an executive package, or a backyard sports package.
She chooses the backyard sports.
We begin our next round:
RRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNGGGG!
The bell will give us a break soon. Rob will give the Wheel a spin, and consonants are worth 500.
Nicole: R (x2)
Nicole quickly solves SIGOURNEY WEAVER ALIENS. She may have missed the lucky letter, but the full puzzle was never shown.
But she may take a sewing machine, a home office workstation, or a knife set.
She wants the sewing machine.
The top-dollar is now 2,500.
Rob will give the Wheel a spin. Consonants are worth 220, and Nicole starts!
Nicole: T
Kathie: S (DUD!)
Stuart: S (Repeat)
Nicole: P (DUD!)
Kathie: R (x4)
Stuart: N
Nicole: L (DUD!)
Kathie: C (x3)
Stuart: H
Stuart solves CHARACTER REFERENCE.
More importantly, he finally gets a prize. Will it be a dishwasher, some stock market software, or a Gold cinema pass?
It will be the movie pass.
The consolation prizes are a Retravision micro furnace and Parker Pens. All contestants receive the Wheel of Fortune board game.
BONUS ROUND:
Nowhere close to yesterday, but Nicole did it again! Maybe it will be...
Kresta Blinds window covering selection ($4,000)
Trip to Mauritius and stay at Naiade Resorts ($6,876)
Renault Clio ($22,500)
...and we're at a nice even $15,000 in cash!
We add 2,995 to her previous 8,790 for a total of 11,785, giving Nicole seven consonants and a vowel. The Golden Wheel spins, and lands on...
13-night Cairns cruise and holiday ($7,500)
Okay, maybe this will be the puzzle:
She will cut it to size with TSBRNLP, and A:
She does not solve TO HANG BY A THREAD either. She's up to $3,841 in prizes, and she can hope to carry 11,785 to the following game!
