Hello, I'm Mark Williams, and welcome to The Link,

0:00:170:00:20

where knowing the answers is only half the battle.

0:00:200:00:23

To win this game, you have to find the link between the answers.

0:00:230:00:27

Three teams are hoping to make the right connections,

0:00:270:00:29

but only one of them can be in today's final.

0:00:290:00:32

Let's see who is quick-witted and quizzical.

0:00:320:00:36

I'm Cat, I'm from Birmingham and I'm a travel agent.

0:00:400:00:43

I'm here today with my partner.

0:00:430:00:45

I'm Tom, I'm a radio producer and I'm originally from Wales.

0:00:450:00:48

And the link is of course, as Cat pointed out, you are partners.

0:00:500:00:53

Whereabouts in Birmingham are you from?

0:00:530:00:55

-We actually live in the Jewellery Quarter at the moment.

-Very nice.

0:00:550:00:58

Yes.

0:00:580:00:59

You two are accident prone, slightly, aren't you?

0:00:590:01:01

I have a history of hitting my head on hard objects.

0:01:010:01:04

-I've split my head open twice.

-What about you, Cat?

0:01:040:01:07

Are you a bit accident prone?

0:01:070:01:09

I've had a few accidents that I've managed to get away with so far.

0:01:090:01:13

One of them would be a large object falling on my head, a coconut.

0:01:130:01:18

So, Cat, you're telling me, like in a cartoon,

0:01:180:01:21

-a coconut fell on your head?

-Exactly like a cartoon.

-That is world-class.

0:01:210:01:25

Good job it wasn't a piano, or more traditionally, a safe.

0:01:250:01:30

-Wow.

-Cat and Tom, welcome.

-Thank you.

0:01:300:01:34

Daryl-Lee and Linda, tell us about yourselves.

0:01:340:01:37

I'm Daryl-Lee and I'm from Potters Bar in Hertfordshire,

0:01:370:01:40

and I'm a secretary and this is my friend.

0:01:400:01:42

I'm Linda, I'm a hypnotherapist,

0:01:420:01:44

and I'm from Cheshunt in Hertfordshire.

0:01:440:01:47

Right.

0:01:470:01:48

APPLAUSE

0:01:480:01:50

And the link is you are friends.

0:01:500:01:53

Linda, you said you would like to be on I'm A Celebrity

0:01:530:01:57

-because you reckon you could do the Bush Tucker Trial.

-Yes.

0:01:570:02:01

-What, you could eat slugs?

-Yes.

0:02:010:02:05

So I'm asking you, Linda, could you eat a slug?

0:02:050:02:08

Yes.

0:02:110:02:12

-Right(!) Daryl-Lee and Linda, welcome.

-Thank you.

0:02:130:02:19

Paul and Pauline, tell us about yourselves.

0:02:190:02:21

I'm Paul, I'm from Ellesmere Port and I'm a sports therapist.

0:02:210:02:26

And I'm with my best friend.

0:02:260:02:28

I'm Pauline, I'm a parish council clerk

0:02:280:02:31

and I'm from Ellesmere Port in Cheshire.

0:02:310:02:33

APPLAUSE

0:02:330:02:35

And they are best friends.

0:02:350:02:36

A lot of people have said they are friends,

0:02:360:02:38

but not many people have said they are best friends.

0:02:380:02:41

-So, Paul and Pauline, brilliant. Paul, you knit.

-I do.

-I can't.

0:02:410:02:46

It's quite simple.

0:02:460:02:48

My granny taught me and it goes in and then I do it for a bit

0:02:480:02:52

and then it just goes.

0:02:520:02:54

You need to try more, Mark.

0:02:540:02:56

LAUGHTER

0:02:560:02:58

-That's me told! Paul and Pauline, welcome.

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

0:02:580:03:02

Right, welcome all. Now, pay attention.

0:03:040:03:06

Here are six cash pods containing amounts ranging from £125 to £2,000.

0:03:060:03:12

The more cash in the pod, the more links holding it.

0:03:120:03:15

What you have to do is cut the links holding the pods

0:03:150:03:18

until they drop into your bank.

0:03:180:03:21

And here's how you cut the links.

0:03:210:03:23

I'm going to ask you four questions

0:03:230:03:25

and you have to work out what links the answers.

0:03:250:03:28

If you can find that link from the first answer alone you'll be

0:03:280:03:32

able to cut four of those links.

0:03:320:03:35

If you spot it after the second answer, you can cut three links,

0:03:350:03:38

then two, then one.

0:03:380:03:41

And of course the link here is...

0:03:430:03:45

ALL: Sun.

0:03:450:03:46

Good. Very good. Let's cut that link.

0:03:480:03:51

OK.

0:03:530:03:55

You need to bank as much as you can because the team with

0:03:550:03:57

-the least amount of money at the end of this round will be going home.

-Oh.

0:03:570:04:03

Let's play The Link.

0:04:030:04:05

APPLAUSE

0:04:050:04:07

Round one. Here's the first question.

0:04:080:04:11

What is the link, Paul and Pauline?

0:04:260:04:28

-Yes.

-Shall we try it?

0:04:450:04:51

Paul.

0:04:510:04:53

Dancer.

0:04:530:04:54

Private Dancer is right.

0:04:540:04:56

Vixen. Dancer. What's the link?

0:04:580:05:01

APPLAUSE

0:05:090:05:12

The remaining two clues were, Comet, Rudolph.

0:05:130:05:16

You got that on the second clue which means you can cut three links.

0:05:160:05:20

-I think we'll take the 500.

-We'll take the 500.

0:05:200:05:23

OK, you are going to cut the three links from the £500 pod.

0:05:230:05:27

There it goes.

0:05:300:05:31

APPLAUSE

0:05:320:05:35

0:05:530:05:57

-That could be...

-Precious metals.

0:05:590:06:02

But we just mentioned that, so... Colours is going to be too simple.

0:06:020:06:07

Everybody's back in play.

-Let's cut those two links.

0:07:480:07:51

APPLAUSE

0:33:080:33:09

Am I...Nicole Kidman?

0:33:100:33:13

-No.

-I didn't think it was.

0:33:150:33:17

Cat and Tom, you have a chance to nick a link.

0:33:170:33:20

I was going to say Kate Winslet but she's not Australian.

0:33:230:33:26

I don't know any other Australian actresses.

0:33:260:33:28

Kate Winslet.

0:33:290:33:31

Am I Kate Winslet?

0:33:310:33:33

-No.

-I can't believe I went there.

0:33:350:33:38

The link was...?

0:33:380:33:39

No links removed but we stay with you, Cat and Tom,

0:33:430:33:45

for the next question.

0:33:450:33:47

And it will be asking...

0:33:470:33:49

How many links? You've got five remaining.

0:33:520:33:54

Play for three, please.

0:33:560:33:58

For three links, here are your clues, what am I?

0:33:580:34:01

I think it's the Declaration of Independence.

0:34:180:34:20

Declaration of Independence.

0:34:200:34:22

Am I the Declaration of Independence?

0:34:230:34:26

APPLAUSE

0:34:290:34:30

The remaining clues were...

0:34:310:34:33

Yes, the US Declaration of Independence.

0:34:450:34:49

Right, OK, let's put you out your misery and cut those links.

0:34:490:34:52

Two left. Now, let's plunge you further into misery because...

0:34:570:35:00

LAUGHTER

0:35:000:35:01

..DarylLee and Linda have one link left.

0:35:010:35:04

Your question we'll be asking...

0:35:040:35:06

-How many links?

-One, please.

-One.

0:35:090:35:13

For one link... Here are your clues - what am I?

0:35:130:35:16

I'm... Ben Nevis.

0:35:400:35:42

Am I Ben Nevis?

0:35:420:35:44

LAUGHTER

0:35:480:35:50

-Ben Nevis...

-I thought I was wrong!

-..chief of the Munros.

0:35:500:35:53

Let's cut the final link.

0:35:530:35:55

There we go.

0:35:570:35:59

Well done, DarylLee and Linda. You're through to the

0:36:000:36:03

final round and that cash goes with you.

0:36:030:36:06

Cat and Tom...

0:36:060:36:07

TOM SIGHS

0:36:070:36:09

Did you feel like you acquitted yourself with honour?

0:36:090:36:12

The first round didn't go quite to plan but we managed to get

0:36:120:36:15

back there, but the second round was tough.

0:36:150:36:17

-Just some of them were right there but it's just under pressure...

-Yeah.

0:36:170:36:20

SHE CHUCKLES

0:36:200:36:22

Cat and Tom, goodbye and thanks for playing The Link.

0:36:220:36:25

Thank you.

0:36:250:36:26

Daryl-Lee and Linda, you are today's finalists.

0:36:290:36:32

You've brought through £1,750.

0:36:320:36:36

And we're adding £2,000 to that...

0:36:360:36:38

So, your maximum win today could be £3,750.

0:36:400:36:45

APPLAUSE

0:36:460:36:49

-So, what would you do with it?

-A holiday, probably.

-OK.

0:36:490:36:53

-Linda?

-Erm, mine would probably be a holiday as well.

-Together?

0:36:530:36:58

No.

0:36:580:36:59

LAUGHTER

0:36:590:37:02

What, not after this endurance test?

0:37:020:37:04

All right, good luck.

0:37:040:37:07

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

0:37:070:37:08

Because, to take that money home, you have just 60 seconds to find

0:37:080:37:12

six super-links.

0:37:120:37:14

At each level,

0:37:140:37:15

you'll need to identify the link between ten one-word clues.

0:37:150:37:19

As soon as you think you know the answer,

0:37:190:37:21

buzz in and we'll stop the clock.

0:37:210:37:23

If you're right, you can take that money home, but choose to

0:37:230:37:26

play on and your team-mate will tackle the next super-link,

0:37:260:37:30

but if you're wrong, play stays with you.

0:37:300:37:33

We will restart the clock and you'll face a new set of clues.

0:37:330:37:36

Run out of time and you'll leave with...

0:37:360:37:39

HE MOUTHS

0:37:390:37:41

Nothing.

0:37:410:37:42

-Who's going to play first?

-Me.

-Me, Daryl-Lee. Right.

0:37:430:37:48

Stand by. You're on your own.

0:37:490:37:52

The clock will start when you see the first clue.

0:37:520:37:55

-Don't know.

-Time's out. The link was...

0:38:200:38:23

-Really?

-Which means, Daryl-Lee, play stays with you

0:38:260:38:29

and you face a new super-link. 46 seconds left.

0:38:290:38:34

The clock will restart when the first clue appears.

0:38:340:38:37

Places in Australia.

0:38:540:38:55

Is the link places in Australia?

0:38:570:39:00

No.

0:39:020:39:03

Because Keating was a prime minister and galah is a bird,

0:39:040:39:09

arvo's an afternoon, not places.

0:39:090:39:11

The remaining clues were...

0:39:110:39:13

-Hoh-hoh-hoh-hoh!

-Oh, my word.

0:39:170:39:19

Which means play stays with you, Daryl-Lee,

0:39:190:39:22

and you face a new super-link. 34 seconds left.

0:39:220:39:26

The clock will restart when the first clue appears. Stand by.

0:39:260:39:30

Time's out. The answer was...

0:39:510:39:53

And final clue was...

0:39:570:39:59

Which means, Daryl-Lee, play stays with you

0:40:010:40:04

and you face a new super-link. 22 seconds left.

0:40:040:40:09

The clock will restart when the first clue appears.

0:40:090:40:12

Planets.

0:40:260:40:27

Out of time. The link was...

0:40:270:40:31

-Did you know?

-And the final clues were...

0:40:330:40:37

Which means play stays with you, Daryl-Lee,

0:40:420:40:46

and you face, tortuously, a new super-link with 13 seconds left.

0:40:460:40:52

The clock will restart when the first clue appears. Are you ready?

0:40:520:40:55

-Yeah.

-I'm not sure Linda can cope with any more of this.

0:40:550:40:58

-I think we should just pass to Linda.

-Unfortunately, no.

0:40:580:41:04

Rules is rules. You're on your own, Daryl-Lee.

0:41:040:41:08

The clock restarts when the first clue appears.

0:41:080:41:12

-Star Wars.

-Time's out.

-Oh, no, it's Doctor Who.

-And the answer was...

0:41:270:41:35

-Oh, robots.

-The last two were...

0:41:360:41:39

Daryl-Lee, play stays with you and you face a new super-link with...

0:41:440:41:48

Oooh, two seconds!

0:41:480:41:50

..I'm sure you're aware, two of your Earth seconds left.

0:41:500:41:55

Wait, you know, it's not over yet.

0:41:570:42:00

The clock will restart when the first clue appears. Are you ready?

0:42:000:42:04

-Daryl-Lee, you're out of time.

-I know.

-The answer was...

0:42:100:42:16

The rest of them were...

0:42:190:42:21

Daryl-Lee and Linda, I'm afraid you're going home with nothing.

0:42:270:42:32

-But we've had a lovely day.

-Well, that makes me feel better.

0:42:320:42:36

-Well, you've got everybody's fellow feelings, love and affection.

-Good.

0:42:360:42:41

Thanks very much. You've been absolutely brilliant sports

0:42:410:42:46

and greatly amusing, Daryl-Lee and Linda.

0:42:460:42:49

APPLAUSE

0:42:490:42:50

Ta-ra. Thanks very much for playing. Goodbye.

0:42:500:42:55

Join us next time when three more pairs will be trying to make

0:42:550:42:58

all the right connections on The Link. See you then. Goodbye.
