Talk:Wheel of Fortune (UK game show)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Is it true that in Wheel of Fortune UK, the contestants must say a word beginning with the letter they call out, and they never buy vowels, just consonants?--67.10.200.101 00:18, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
Vowel buying *is* possible, but very few people do it. As for the 'F for Freddie' style delivery, this is apparently done to avoid any possible confusion between letters due to accents etc. Elcondor 20:57, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
The page considers the title be a "misnomer" due to the fact that the show has prizes other than money. I would say this is incorrect as the "fortune" referred to in the title could well mean "luck".
