The wheel will debut on next Monday’s episode, according to the watermark shown during Australian Survivor tonight.
I’m going to a filming session tomorrow! So it was a couple of weeks ago I got sent an email that they were inviting people who didn’t get selected to play or only got up on the podium. This morning I got this message and they called me to say that I’m attending tomorrow. So I may get up on the podium holding a case again.

Hopefully unlike last year, there will be no limbo on the actual airdate.
Good luck with that. Hopefully a few more TV airtime for you 
7.30am-5pm? That’s a long day for the audience. Hopefully lots of lollies in between takes to pump up the audience. lol.

Top Dollar! Go The Silver! 
Unfortunately my group didn’t get selected to play today. Still had such an amazing experience nonetheless.

Just watched tonight’s episode and the contestant took a deal of $49,999. Grant Denyer then offered her the opportunity to spin the wheel to try and get it to land on the jackpot for $75,000. The contestant rejected spinning the wheel.
Honestly the Deal Wheel endgame was completely pointless tonight.

So they’re essentially copying The Chase’s mistake - basically forget the rest of the show and just spin a wheel at the end instead and we’ll make that the prize instead.

No disrespect, is that how tall GD is?
I’ve watched yesterday’s game and $20,000 won via Deal Wheel.
Tonight’s game was yet another $100,000 Loss!
And even though the contestant missed out on winning the $100,000, and ended up having $500. Grant Denyer offered the opportunity to spin the Deal Wheel to try and land on the jackpot of $20,000. She ended up spinning the wheel and increased her winnings to $1,500.
Honestly this Deal Wheel endgame is unnecessary to me. They shouldn’t play it if you miss out on winning $100,000. I can tell you all when I went to the filming session last Tuesday, throughout the 5 episodes that were filmed they didn’t play the Deal Wheel endgame.

Tonight’s episode the contestant took a deal of $38,000 when he got down to the last 3 cases and had $5,000, $50,000 and $100,000 in play. He ended up eliminating $5,000 and had $50,000 in his case. However Grant Denyer tried to get him to spin the Deal Wheel to try to get it to land on the jackpot of $60,000. Was never going to happen when there was only a 1 in 16 chance of landing on the jackpot. This Deal Wheel endgame is an absolute joke.

It’s a gimmick to keep the show fresh. Like other gimmicks, it probably won’t last long, so relax.
Jack - they are desperate for viewers and adding a new “Chance” element helps entertain during a lame predictable finish.

That is Not Very Good to Cause a Bad Accident During a Bathurst Stack, I Hope the Deal or No Deal Presenter Gets Better Soon.
