Shelton is 51, with wife Yasmin, from New Pine Creek, Oregon. He is a farmer and wishes to sell up and move away after living in his home all his life. Well tonight Shelton, your jackpot isn’t $1,000,000… its $1,200,000! *large applauses* and Shelton punches the air. They go down in decreasing amounts to one penny.
