Donald Johnson, a retired grandfather of four and longtime “Wheel of Fortune” viewer, will compete on Monday’s episode with his granddaughter, Devyn Quarterman, as part of a special week of shows taped at Walt Disney World featuring grandparent-grandchild teams.

Quarterman, a financial assistant and bridal stylist, signed up for the show in hopes of winning a vacation for her family, according to the “Wheel of Fortune” press release.

The episode will air Monday at 6:30 p.m. on WDAF, Kansas City’s Fox affiliate.
