0:00:18 > 0:00:19Hello.
0:00:19 > 0:00:22I'm Mark Williams and welcome to The Link,
0:00:22 > 0:00:24where knowing the answers is only half the battle.
0:00:24 > 0:00:28To win this game, you have to find the link BETWEEN the answers.
0:00:28 > 0:00:31Three teams are hoping to make the right connections,
0:00:31 > 0:00:34but only one of them can be in today's final.
0:00:34 > 0:00:38Let's see who's jumping with judicious judgement.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43I'm Andy, I come from the Wirral,
0:00:43 > 0:00:45I'm a complaints prevention manager,
0:00:45 > 0:00:47and I do compering in my spare time. And this is my friend.
0:00:47 > 0:00:50I'm Mike, I'm a strategic operations analyst
0:00:50 > 0:00:51and I'm also from the Wirral.
0:00:55 > 0:00:59Two job descriptions there about which I have no idea.
0:00:59 > 0:01:03- And neither do we. - Neither do you! Andy, you...
0:01:03 > 0:01:07- Have you got anything to tell me about The Fourth Plinth?- Yes.
0:01:07 > 0:01:09A couple of years ago, I was fortunate enough to be chosen
0:01:09 > 0:01:12to stand on The Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square.
0:01:12 > 0:01:14It's part of Antony Gormley's art exhibition at the time,
0:01:14 > 0:01:18where you had to spend an hour on the plinth doing whatever,
0:01:18 > 0:01:21- literally whatever you wanted to. - So what were you doing?
0:01:21 > 0:01:23I stood up there dressed as Judge Dredd,
0:01:23 > 0:01:25who's my favourite comic character.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28I talked about why I'm a geek, and I'll be honest with you,
0:01:28 > 0:01:30it was one of the least weird things that happened
0:01:30 > 0:01:33on the plinth on those 30 days, so, yeah.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35- Right. - Although a bit hot in the leather.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39So, Mike, you're still friends with him despite that...
0:01:39 > 0:01:43Despite all the leather that he dresses up in. Yeah, still friends.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47- Fantastic. Alison and Chloe, tell us about yourselves.- I'm Alison.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50I'm a children's community nurse, I'm from Birmingham,
0:01:50 > 0:01:52and this is my daughter.
0:01:52 > 0:01:53I'm Chloe, I'm from Walsall,
0:01:53 > 0:01:56and I'm currently studying medical sciences at uni.
0:01:59 > 0:02:01Mother and daughter...
0:02:01 > 0:02:05- Can you not tell the family resemblance?- I can.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08You say Walsall and you say Birmingham.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11- Because I'm a Brummie and we moved to Walsall.- Oh, OK.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13She was born in Walsall.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15- IN BRUMMIE:- So I can't talk proper...
0:02:15 > 0:02:17- OWN ACCENT:- ..but she can, so it's OK.- You can't half.
0:02:17 > 0:02:18I'm multilingual.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21The difference is, of course, Birmingham and the Black Country,
0:02:21 > 0:02:25two very discreet and separate cultures.
0:02:25 > 0:02:29- Should not be mixed up.- No. Remember that. All right?
0:02:30 > 0:02:32Dave and Hywel.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34I'm David and I'm an assistant head teacher,
0:02:34 > 0:02:37and I'm from Yorkshire, and this is my friend.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39I'm Hywel, I grew up in East Devon but I live in London now,
0:02:39 > 0:02:42and I work as a software consultant to start-up companies.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49- And you're friends.- That's right.
0:02:49 > 0:02:51How did you meet?
0:02:51 > 0:02:53It was in our first week of university.
0:02:53 > 0:02:57We studied together and we met on the first week, got along pretty well.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59- Where did you go to university? - Cambridge.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02- We were both at King's College, Cambridge.- You were both at King's?
0:03:02 > 0:03:05- Yep.- Did you sing? Were you choristers?- No, badly.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07I did sing a bit, but not in the proper choir.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10They have a sort of reserve choir they wheel out once a week.
0:03:10 > 0:03:11Reserve choir!
0:03:11 > 0:03:13OK, Hywel. Brilliant.
0:03:13 > 0:03:17Dave and Hywel, welcome. Welcome, all!
0:03:17 > 0:03:19Now, pay attention.
0:03:19 > 0:03:24Here are six cash pods containing amounts ranging from £125 to £2,000.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27The more cash in the pod, the more links holding it.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30You have to cut the links holding the pods
0:03:30 > 0:03:34until they drop into your bank. Here's how you cut the links.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36I'm going to ask you four questions
0:03:36 > 0:03:39and you have to work out what links the answers.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41If you can find that link from the first answer alone,
0:03:41 > 0:03:44you'll be able to cut four of those links...
0:03:44 > 0:03:48if you spot it after the second answer, you can cut three links...
0:03:48 > 0:03:50then two, then one.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53And, of course, the link here is...
0:03:53 > 0:03:54ALL: The Rolling Stones.
0:03:57 > 0:03:59Everybody choruses. Let's cut that link.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04You need to bank as much as you can, cos the team with the least
0:04:04 > 0:04:07amount of money at the end of this round will be going home.
0:04:09 > 0:04:10Let's play The Link.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17Stand by. Round one. Here's the first question.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20For four links...

0:04:35 > 0:04:39- Biscuits?- Yellow things...
0:04:39 > 0:04:43Yellow things sharks swim in... I think yellow would be too easy.
0:04:43 > 0:04:47- What's the link? - Let's go for...yellow.
0:04:48 > 0:04:53- Yellow things. Sorry. - Is the link...yellow things?!
0:04:54 > 0:04:56No.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59Yellow things that shark swim in.
0:04:59 > 0:05:00Outstanding.
0:05:01 > 0:05:06Everyone back in place. Stand by. Your next question for three links.

0:05:21 > 0:05:23Custard tart, jam tart...

0:05:35 > 0:05:37Yes.
0:05:40 > 0:05:42The remaining clues were...
0:05:45 > 0:05:46You got that on the second clue,
0:05:46 > 0:05:48which means you can cut three links.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51How do you want to use your three links?
0:05:51 > 0:05:53I think it would be sensible to get
0:05:53 > 0:05:55some money in the bank. Get the 500.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58- If we can use all three on the 500, please, Mark?- Agreed.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09We were thinking Michael Jackson's children initially.
0:10:09 > 0:10:10I don't think he has a kid called Racket.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12I'm not sure he went as far as Racket,
0:10:12 > 0:10:14although it wouldn't surprise us. Er...

0:26:16 > 0:26:19Andy and Mike, you've banked £800,
0:26:19 > 0:26:22Dave and Hywel, you've banked £3,875.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25That money is now in these two cash pods.
0:26:25 > 0:26:26Each held by seven links.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29The first team to cut all the links and release their cash pod
0:26:29 > 0:26:32takes their money through to the final round.
0:26:32 > 0:26:34The other team will be out.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37And now you can be as brave or as cautious as you like
0:26:37 > 0:26:41because you decide how many links you want to cut.
0:26:41 > 0:26:44I'm going to ask you to identify a person, place or thing
0:26:44 > 0:26:46from a series of clues, and you tell me
0:26:46 > 0:26:51whether you want to play for one, two, three or four links.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54But the more links you play for, the fewer clues you'll receive.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57We'll start with the team who has brought the most money
0:26:57 > 0:27:00through to this round, and that is Dave and Hywel.
0:27:03 > 0:27:06Round Two. The first question is asking...
0:27:07 > 0:27:10What am I? How many links?
0:27:10 > 0:27:13- I think, shall we play it safe and go for two?- Yeah, OK.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16- That sounds good to me. - For two links here are your clues.
0:27:34 > 0:27:40Ah, I've a feeling this could be the Oxford Cambridge Boat Race maybe?
0:27:40 > 0:27:42- Oh, wow, yeah. - But I don't know for certain.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45That sounds, I mean, it fits all the clues, doesn't it? I like it.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47Erm, the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49Am I the Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race?
0:27:52 > 0:27:53No.
0:27:54 > 0:27:58So, Andy and Mike, you have a chance to nick a link.
0:27:58 > 0:28:00You will see the remaining clue
0:28:00 > 0:28:03for the chance to cut a single link from your cash pod.
0:28:03 > 0:28:04And it is...
0:28:09 > 0:28:13- Grand National.- Yeah, erm, we're going to say the Grand National.
0:28:14 > 0:28:16Am I the Grand National?
0:28:19 > 0:28:21APPLAUSE
0:28:23 > 0:28:26Right. Correct, you have nicked a link.
0:28:26 > 0:28:30That means you can cut one link from your pod.
0:28:33 > 0:28:34And it's now your go.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38Your question will be asking...
0:28:38 > 0:28:40What am I?
0:28:40 > 0:28:42- How many links, Andy and Mike? - Go for two?- Yeah.
0:28:42 > 0:28:45We're going to follow suit and go for two links, please, Mark.
0:28:45 > 0:28:48For two links, your clues. What am I?
0:29:09 > 0:29:12- I'm thinking, like, the Queen's Speech.- OK, so we're thinking...
0:29:12 > 0:29:13King or Queen's Speech.
0:29:13 > 0:29:16The King or Queen's Speech, so the Royal Christmas Message, I guess,
0:29:16 > 0:29:18is the all-encompassing way of saying it.
0:29:18 > 0:29:20Er, the Royal Christmas Message please.
0:29:20 > 0:29:22Am I the Royal Christmas Message?
0:29:26 > 0:29:28Oh, word for word.

0:29:47 > 0:29:49Dave, Hywel...
0:29:49 > 0:29:51your question will be asking...
0:29:53 > 0:29:55Who am I? How many links?

0:30:27 > 0:30:31He would have been quite a good Han Solo. He won an Oscar.

0:30:35 > 0:30:36DAVE CHUCKLES

0:30:39 > 0:30:41Am I Anthony Hopkins?
0:30:43 > 0:30:46No. Andy and Mike, you have a chance to nick a link.
0:30:46 > 0:30:48You will see the remaining clue, which is...?

0:31:04 > 0:31:09but was first nominated for The Godfather.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11That's right, you have nicked a link.
0:31:11 > 0:31:14That means we can cut one link from your pod...
0:31:16 > 0:31:20..leaving three links, and it is your turn.
0:31:20 > 0:31:21Your question will be asking...
0:31:23 > 0:31:25Who am I? How many links?
0:31:25 > 0:31:28Erm, it's tempting to go for three links, Mark,
0:31:28 > 0:31:31- but we'll play it a little bit safe and go for two links, yeah?- Yeah.
0:31:31 > 0:31:34OK, you're going for two links.
0:31:34 > 0:31:37Your clues are, who am I?

0:32:44 > 0:32:45What am I?
0:32:47 > 0:32:48How many links?
0:32:49 > 0:32:52There's a range of different things we could do here.
0:32:52 > 0:32:55- I think you've got to go three or four. I'd go four.- Shall we go four?
0:32:55 > 0:32:58- We've got no chance otherwise, have we?- Yeah, OK, let's go for four.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01For four links here are your clues.

0:33:55 > 0:33:57I like that.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00Yes, the Amazon rainforest. Let's cut those four links.
0:34:06 > 0:34:09That's looking a bit healthier.
0:34:09 > 0:34:12However, Andy and Mike, your turn now.

0:34:28 > 0:34:30Here are your clues.
0:34:56 > 0:34:59OK, I think we got it from the Blondie song, erm, and it would be

0:35:43 > 0:35:46How can you come through with £3,875
0:35:46 > 0:35:49and not continue to the final round?
0:35:49 > 0:35:51We were beaten by the better people, so...
0:35:51 > 0:35:54- Yeah, they were better than us. - Debatable.
0:35:54 > 0:35:55That's a really generous thing to say,
0:35:55 > 0:35:58and, unfortunately, you're right.
0:35:58 > 0:36:00- But... - LAUGHTER
0:36:00 > 0:36:03..getting four links on rainforest, that was very good.
0:36:03 > 0:36:07It just wasn't enough to save you. We enjoyed having you on The Link.
0:36:07 > 0:36:10- Dave and Hywel, goodbye. - See you later.
0:36:12 > 0:36:14APPLAUSE

0:36:38 > 0:36:41- Will you be splitting it, or...? - We'd obviously split it 50/50.
0:36:41 > 0:36:44If I was lucky enough to win something,
0:36:44 > 0:36:46I'd like to take my son Nathan to a trip to London.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49- Good.- He's always wanted to go so splash a bit of cash...
0:36:49 > 0:36:52What does he want to see? Is it something he's got in his mind?

0:36:54 > 0:36:56He wants to go to the biggest toy shop there is, he wants to go

0:37:10 > 0:37:12So pretty much like Nathan but slightly taller.
0:37:12 > 0:37:16OK, that's very clear. And I support you wholeheartedly.
0:37:16 > 0:37:17- Thank you.- Good.
0:37:17 > 0:37:22But to take that money home you have just 60 seconds to find six
0:37:22 > 0:37:24super links. At each level you'll need to identify
