Australia's favourite game, Wheel of Fortune!
Today's contestants:
Tina Kuzmanovska
Nicole Tisse (returning with $3,841 in prizes)
Brian Jones
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is 750.
Tina guesses TO BE ON SHORT SUPPLY.
Nicole corrects it to TO BE IN SHORT SUPPLY.
Do we ever run out of prizes? She can pick a blender, a barbecue, or a camera and tripod.
Her supply increases with the camera and tripod.
Here's an Animal Puzzler for the home audience. Can you solve it?
The answer is GOLDEN RETRIEVER.
We have oddities, but we also have surprises, some from two Mystery Wedges. You might flip over a BANKRUPT, or you might flip over a 6-day Phuket holiday worth $10,000!
The top-dollar value on the Wheel is upgraded to 1,500.
Tina solves ALTERNATE NAME FOR A MOUTH ORGAN. Can she answer what it is?
Nope. It's a harmonica.
But she's made up for Round 1 anyway, so she can pick a jewellery package, a brush cutter, or some kids' accessories.
Tina calls for the jewellery package.
We begin our next round:
Nicole solves BROADBAND INTERNET CONNECTION.
On the other side, she can pick a ceramic glass grill, some personal finance software, or a portable DVD player.
One click, and she has a glass grill.
The top-dollar is now 2,500 for Round 4:
RRRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNGGGG!
About time it waited. Rob will give the Wheel a spin, and consonants are worth 265.
Nicole: H
Brian: G (DUD!)
Tina: S
Nicole: K
Nicole guesses ROAST CHICKEN YARD.
Brian: N
Tina: C (x2)
Nicole: M (DUD!)
Brian: P (DUD!)
Tina: Y (DUD!)
Nicole: D (DUD!)
Brian: F (DUD!)
Tina: W
Only vowels left!
Nicole...
...just solves ROAST CHICKEN WIRE.
The final pick goes to her. It will be a cutlery set, a golf package, or some winter sportswear.
Nicole takes the cutlery set.
Things didn't go Brian's way at all. He and Tina will receive Tasco compact binoculars and Parker Pens as a consolation prize. All contestants receive the Wheel of Fortune board game.
BONUS ROUND:
She's not giving up. She wants a prize! She could win...
Coffex espresso machine and coffee package ($4,090)
TravelPilot DX-V car navigation system ($4,200)
Renault Clio ($22,500)
...and the cash is up to $15,100!
We add 4,160 to her previous 11,785 for 15,945, so Nicole's up to nine consonants and a vowel. The Golden Wheel spins, and lands on...
13-night Cairns cruise and holiday ($7,500)
Any minute now. I think this will be the puzzle:
More and more force with TSRLNMHPW, and A:
Finally! She solves A HARD LUCK STORY to keep the holiday, and she's coming back again!
