Here’s a theme w/ a name that was last used in late S22. Back then, it was called “Passport to Adventure”. This time, it’s been renamed to “Passport to Fun”.

$100K Bonus Round
The electric car for this week is a Ford Mustang Mach-E. BTW, Kyla’s hubby Michael made a promise that if she won a trip on the show, they could finally get a dog. After we see the hubby and their three boys (Joseph, Andrew, and Matthew), she lands on the M of GAME. This biggie starts as…
_ _ _ N T _ N _ / _
_ _ _ _ _ / _ _ _ T _ R E
FGPA gives her besides the obvious G…
P A _ N T _ N G / A
_ _ _ _ _ / P _ _ T _ R E
…she flubs the completely blank third word w/ GREAT, PRETTY, and GOOD, so she won’t be PAINTING A VIVID PICTURE of her winning $40K.
At the end, we see Pat and Vanna on a double-decker bus in front of the Palace of Westminster, Westminster Abbey, and Saint Margaret’s Church.
MY RATING: 5
Sending in @nickskapower for the next three shows. Back with you on Friday.
