Actually, Carol Smillie was still there for the next season (which was co-incidentally, Carol Smillie's last), but this was the last season with the original set.
I think there was one time when the American WOF invited hosts from versions all over the world for a special series of shows in the US. I came across a news clip from years ago when that happened, and it looked like Carol made the trip. It sounded like she was blown away when she tried to compare herself to the American letter turner Vanna White.
I don't get why she'd solve so fast. I like how they choose who will start with a trivia question. The audience's "ooooOOOOOHHHH!!!!!" is kind of annoying and their cheering for the spin before a letter is called is annoying too. I think it's funny how calm they are when they solve unlike the American version. lol I don't know why it took them so long to get "strike while the iron's hot" and strange how he forced the guy to buy a vowel but told the woman next that she had to solve.
Omg so different. People look 20 years older than they say they are. Or rather the deminer of someon older, but deminer stays the same over time so makes sense! Carol smiley twirling - so cheesy! imagine that now, it wouldn't be deemed acceptable by the powers that be! And that car.. What a peice of shit! lol
About (censored) time another episode was dug up, and from early in the series as well!
Thanks very much for sharing!
Last season with the original set.

It Was Revived In 2024 With Graham Norton Hosting, But Throughout It's Had Many Hosts(e.g Bradley Walsh, John Leslie And Paul Hendy)

There is nothing more painful than solving the puzzle something like 6 turns before the contestants and watching them guess the wrong things.
Nicky: Watch these prizes go pasteurize!
That joke couldn't be any cheesier if the folks at Kraft thought it up.
1990s
Is this one of the last Wheel of Fortune UK episodes that has that puzzleboard?
Yes. This is the last series with the original set, which was designed by Christopher George.
The same canned laughter, over and over.
its not, that is Glasgow for you.
I've noticed they don't buy much vowels in this version. Why don't they?
mister14051986 I think it was illegal to buy vowels but I'm not 100% sure.
cutemimi25 Illegal? Why would it have been illegal?
I don't know much detail unfortunately, I'm just guessing.
***** Thanks! :)
***** Kinda like what the Aussie version does, except it's only $50 per vowel.

Oh and bald was considered silly then?! lol
Are they still up and running ?
+drychalice No-- new episodes stopped in 2001. You can watch reruns on Challenge, though!
but the british wheel of fortune comes back with the fifty thousand pounds bonus round and express wedge plus the mystery wedge
