Episode 20 The Link

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

where knowing the answers is only half the battle.

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

Three teams are hoping to make the right connections

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

Let's see who's feeling bright and brilliantly brainy.

Hi. My name's Sue and I'm an IT tester from Somerset,

and this is my son.

Hi, I'm Chris. I am a hotelier and I'm also from Street in Somerset.

APPLAUSE

-The link is, you are mother and son.

-Yes.

-IT, information technology.

-IT, yeah. Computers.

-So, you test them?

-Yeah, the software.

-Do they work? Mine doesn't.

-No, not as often as they should.

-That's good.

OK, Sue and Chris. Welcome.

Jon and Nnamdi, tell us about yourselves.

Hi, my name's Jon. I'm currently studying maths and biology.

-I'm from Hertfordshire and this is my best mate.

-Hi, I'm Nnamdi.

I also study maths and biology and I'm from Middlesex.

APPLAUSE

And the link is, you're best mates.

-That's right.

-Think so, yeah.

Why are they linked together, biology and maths?

They're not, to be honest with you.

That's what I thought. Just seemed like a good idea.

-We just sort of tripped and fell into it, really.

-Pretty much.

"I know, let's do biology and maths! Brilliant!"

Welcome.

Amanda and Scott, tell us about yourselves.

Hi, my name's Amanda. I'm from Harrogate.

-I run a lifestyle website. This is my husband.

-Hi, I'm Scott.

I run the lifestyle website business with Amanda

and I'm also from Harrogate. APPLAUSE

And the link is, you're married and you work together.

-Indeed.

-Does that work all right?

-It's a dream.

-It's a dream.

-"It's a dream."

-Nightmare for me.

-OK. We'll see how you work together.

-OK.

-Right. Welcome, all. Now pay attention.

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

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

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

until they drop into your bank. And here's how you cut the links.

I'm going to ask you four questions

and you have to work out what links the answers.

If you can find that link from the first answer alone,

you'll be able to cut four of those links.

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

then two, then one.

-Of course, the link here is...

-The Beatles.

-It is the Beatles.

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

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

Let's play The Link.

Here's the first question.

For four links, in which French Riviera town will you find

the Promenade des Anglais? Amanda.

-Nice.

-Nice is correct.

There's your first clue. What's the link?

What do you reckon?

Is it nice or is it Nice? Could it be both? I don't know.

-It could be nice.

-Nice. All things nice...

-Running out of time.

-What about biscuits?

-Yep, try that one.

-Biscuits.

-Is the link biscuits?

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

Very good. So, what would the other clues have been?

You got that, incredibly, on your first clue.

That's going to give you four links to cut. What are you going to do?

I think we've got to get something on the board, don't we?

-Absolutely, yeah.

-We're going to go with the £750.

-OK.

Let's cut those four links.

-And there it goes.

-APPLAUSE

Stand by. Everybody back in the game for four links.

I mean, the Jets obviously is. I don't know about Tonight...

-Songs from West Side Story.

-Songs from West Side Story.

Is it songs from West Side Story?

-APPLAUSE

-Yes. We'll give you that.

The remaining clues would have been...

Tonight is a song from the musical,

the Jets and the Sharks are gangs in it,

it's based on Romeo And Juliet, and Maria is one of the main characters.

So, Sue and Chris, you got it on the second clue

so you now have three links to cut. How are you going to use them?

Just get started, get us on the board.

-Good stuff.

The remaining clues would have been...

You have three links to cut.

-What do you want to do.

-What shall we do?

I'm thinking if we cut three off the 1,000,

that still leaves the game wide open.

-Do one off the 2,000 and two off the 1,000?

-Yeah, try that one.

We'll do one off the 2,000 and two off the 1,000.

-Is it Kylie Minogue?

The link is Kylie. X is the name of her 2007 album,

she appears in the movie Moulin Rouge,

What are you going to do with it? How are you going to use it?

-This is a tricky one, I think.

-I know.

We can make ourselves unpopular again

and we take one off the 1,000 to make the 2,000 harder to get?

-Well, go on if you want to.

-What do you want to do?

-No, no.

If it's one link it doesn't... OK, we'll take one off the 1,000, please.

-SHE GROANS

-Let's cut that link.

You've got four links. What are you going to do?

We'll cut all four on the 2,000, please.

I thought you might say that. Let's cut those links.

Releasing £2,000 into your bank. Which means...

-CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-..you have £2,925,

which means you will be going through to the next round.

However, with £1,000 still on the screen,

still all to play for for Jon and Nnamdi and Amanda and Scott.

Stand by. For four links.

-King is correct.

What is the link?

-Where was Martin Luther King shot?

-Not sure, actually.

-Graceland.

-Graceland is correct.

SHE GASPS

-What's the link?

-We think it's Elvis.

-You're saying Elvis.

-Yes.

Which would mean you would be able to take that £1,000,

go through to the next round with £3,925.

Is it Elvis?

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

So, the remaining clue would have been...

He was born in Mississippi, his nickname was the King,

his house was Graceland and he was married to Priscilla.

So, how are you going to use your two links?

-HE LAUGHS

-Come on, Chris.

Can we take two off the 1,000, please?

Chris is taking two off the 1,000. His mum says yes as well.

APPLAUSE

Which puts £3,925 in Sue and Chris's bank.

Amanda and Scott have £750 and go through to the next round.

And we say goodbye to Jon and Nnamdi.

-Thanks very much for coming on the show.

-Thanks for having us.

-Jon and Nnamdi, arrivederci.

-APPLAUSE

Sue and Chris, Amanda and Scott, you're still in the game.

Sue and Chris, you banked £3,925.

Amanda and Scott, you banked 750.

That money is now in these two cash pods.

Each held, as you can see, by seven links.

The first team to cut all the links and release their cash pod

takes their money through to the final round.

The other team will be out.

Now, you can be as brave or as cautious as you like

because you decide how many links you want to cut.

I'm going to ask you to identify a person,

place or thing from a series of clues and you tell me

whether you want to pay for one, two, three or four links.

But the more links you play for, the fewer clues you will receive.

You'll take it in turns to play

and we start with the team who has brought the most money

through to this round, and that is Sue and Chris.

Round two. The first question is asking...

-How many links?

-Erm...

If it was a who, I'd say only two links

-because I don't think we'd be too great at that.

-I think I agree.

So we're going to chance it for three, then? Yeah.

Just keep going with two? What do you think?

Go on, then, we'll play safe if you want.

-OK, we'll have two links, please.

-OK.

For two links, here are your clues...

Hmm.

We probably could have had all four

and we wouldn't have been any better off. Erm...

Set on fire during the War of 1812.

Which means it must be somewhere not in England.

-I think it might be the White House.

-Yeah, go on, say that.

-The White House.

-Am I the White House?

-APPLAUSE

-Well done. Well done.

The other clue would have been...

Which I wouldn't have got.

Chris, what suddenly made you get that?

-Oddly enough...

-The bowling alley?

The bowling alley. I remember someone telling...

-Reading somewhere about the bowling alley.

-Great god of trivia.

-Exactly.

-Well done. Let's cut those two links.

OK. Five remaining. Amanda, Scott. The next question is asking...

How many links?

-Think for the time being we've got to play it a little safer.

-Yeah.

-What are you thinking?

-Play for two links.

-Two. I agree.

-We're going to play for two links.

-Two links. Here are your clues.

It's the...Rugby Union World Cup, isn't it?

I have no idea so I'm really glad that you're thinking something.

I'm going to... I think it's the Rugby Union World Cup.

Am I the Rugby Union World Cup?

-Yes!

-APPLAUSE

Very good. There was a great little "yes" there.

The remaining clue would have been...

What a great goal that was! Right. You have two links. Let's cut them.

Five plays five.

Advantage goes back to you, Sue and Chris.

The next question is asking...

-How many links?

-I think we play two links again on this.

-Yeah?

-I don't think we're as good on people, so... Two links?

-I agree.

Two links, please.

For two links, here are your clues...

-Erm... I hope you know this!

-I think it might be Peter Kay.

-Do you know, I was thinking that too.

-Because he did...

-But what was the single?

-Show Me The Way To Amarillo.

-Go on, then. Peter Kay, please.

-Peter Kay.

-Chris, was that your first thought?

-It's my only thought so it's...

Your only thought. Therefore it has a great worth.

Is it Peter Kay?

-APPLAUSE

-Well done again.

Well done, Chris. Cos I had no idea.

The remaining clue would have been...

-I'd have got it then!

-Yeah!

-OK. Let's cut those two links.

Amanda and Scott, pressure.

The next question is asking...

-How many links?

-I kind of think that...

-Now there is a bit of pressure, we need to...

-Yeah.

I don't think we'd probably get it on one.

If we've got to go for it, which we probably really need to,

but I still don't think we would get it and that would help them.

-So... What should we do? Go for...

-We've got to try and...two links.

-Two links again.

-Two links. For two links, who am I?

I can't think of any fighter pilot.

The book The Gremlins was written for Walt...

"My book, The Gremlins, was written for Walt Disney." Gremlins?

"I wrote several scripts for films, including Chitty Chitty Bang Bang."

-We need an answer.

-I don't know.

-Any minute now.

-Can't even think of a pilot.

-Quickly.

-I can't think.

-Out of time.

-Sorry, can't think of anything.

-Nothing.

Sue and Chris, you now have a chance to make a link.

You will see the remaining clue for a chance

to cut a single link from your cash pod.

And it is...

Roald Dahl, isn't it?

-Veruca Salt, isn't that in Charlie And The Chocolate Factory?

-Yeah.

-So, we're going to say Roald Dahl.

-Is it Roald Dahl?

Did you not know that Veruca Salt was Roald Dahl?

So, Sue and Chris, you've nicked a link. Let's take it off your pod.

Play passes to you for the next question, which is asking...

-How many links?

-Shall we try two?

-Well, they can't...

-They've got five so they can't win.

-You mean you want to go with one?

-Your call.

-Let's go one link, if that's what you want.

-OK.

For one link, here are your clues. Who am I?

-Hmm. Yeah. I think it was good to go with four.

-Yes.

-Yeah.

-I'm thinking Louis Pasteur, are you?

-Yeah. Absolutely.

-Louis Pasteur.

Am I Louis Pasteur?

I might have guessed it from the germs one.

Let's cut one of your links.

It's a bit cruel, this, I have to say.

-Stringing it out a bit, aren't we?

-You are a bit.

You know, that's your prerogative, clearly. OK.

Amanda and Scott, you have five links remaining.

The next question is asking...

How many links would you like?

I think we should just go for one link cos I think they're

going to get it regardless on the next clue

and then we have to just go for it anyway on the "What Am I"?

-So I would just go for one.

-Yeah. Yeah, might as well.

-We're just going to go with one link.

-You're going to go with one link.

OK, then. For one link.

I thought originally it was Elizabeth Taylor.

-Is it...

-Has she had children?

Running out of time. Any minute now I need an answer.

Time's out. No. OK, Sue and Chris.

You now have a chance to nick a link which, of course,

would mean that you take £3,925 through to the final round.

-Can you tell me the link between those four clues?

-I think I know.

-I think it's Judy... I think it's Judy Garland.

-OK.

-Judy Garland.

Is it Judy Garland?

SHE CHEERS Yes!

Let's cut the final link. A satisfying splosh.

APPLAUSE

Well done, Sue and Chris.

You are through to the final round and that cash goes with you.

However, Amanda and Scott, we have to say goodbye to you.

I thought you played really well

and I thought you were going to do better than you did. What happened?

-When I took control, it all fell apart.

-No.

You were great contestants. Thanks very much for playing The Link.

-Goodbye.

-APPLAUSE

Sue and Chris, you are today's finalists.

You've brought through £3,925.

And we're adding £2,000 to that

so today you are playing for £5,925.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

-A lot of money.

-Any thoughts on what you're going to do with that?

Yeah, definitely.

I'm off to the Caribbean to watch some cricket over there.

-Are you really?

-Absolutely.

-Marvellous.

What do you think about that, Sue?

Well, I'm not sure I approve but I think I'll buy a sofa.

You're going to buy a sofa. That's good, then.

That's very good apportionment. Well done. Right.

To take that money home you have just 60 seconds

to find six super-links.

At each level you need to identify the link

between the ten one-word clues.

As soon as you think you know the answer,

buzz in and we'll stop the clock.

If you are right you can take that money home but choose to play on

and your team-mate will tackle the next super-link.

But if you're wrong, play stays with you

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

Run out of time and you leave with nothing.

Nowt. Nullity.

-Who's going to play first?

-I'm going to play first.

-Are you, Chris?

-Yeah.

Who decided that? You just did.

No. Again, we had a tactic all the way

and in the last couple of minutes we changed that tactic.

I think Mum's on fire with the links today

so if we get to the last one, we want her to be there.

OK. Chris, you're on your own.

-Yeah.

-The clock will start when you see the first clue.

BUZZER What's his name? What's his name?

Sylvester Stallone films.

Is it Sylvester Stallone films?

APPLAUSE

I've been trying not to say this but good boy!

Well done.

Your final clue would have been Rocky. So, that puts you on £125.

With 46 seconds on the clock, you now have a choice.

You can take that money home or you can play on.

-We'll play on.

-Play on.

-OK, Sue. Your turn now.

The clock will restart when the first clue appears.

-BUZZER

-I think it's Whoopi Goldberg.

-You think it's Whoopi Goldberg.

-Yeah.

-Is it Whoopi Goldberg?

-No.

-Oh, Hamlet.

-The final clues would have been...

The link was Hamlet. So, play stays with you, Sue.

You are on £125.

35 seconds on the clock and you face a new super-link.

The clock will restart when the first clue appears.

-BUZZER

-Racecourses.

Is the link racecourses?

-Yes. Well done.

-APPLAUSE

The remaining clues would have been...

-When did you get it?

-Curragh was getting there and then York.

-Right.

-Yeah.

-Well done. That puts you on £300.

Sue and Chris, with 24 seconds remaining, you now have a choice.

-You can take that money and go or you can play on.

-Let's go.

-We'll go for it. We'll try.

-You want to go for it.

Chris, it's your turn.

-Are you ready?

-Yeah.

-The clock will restart when the first clue appears.

BUZZER

Aircraft.

Is it aircraft?

No, pears.

Which means play stays with you, Chris.

You have to play on and face the new super-link with 11 seconds left.

The clock will restart when the first clue appears.

BUZZER

I don't have a clue. Erm...

Time's out.

The correct answer was...

The remaining clues would have been...

So, Chris,

you've got one second remaining but play stays with you.

You cannot take that £300 unless you make this next super-link

-and you have to face it. Your mum is supporting you.

-All the way!

-Right.

With one second left, the clock will restart when the first clue appears.

-Are you ready, Chris?

-Yeah.

-Good.

-BUZZER

-Go on, then, Luskentyre.

Let's go for Germany.

Let's go for Germany. What's that look, Sue?

-That's "why"?

-It looks vaguely German, you know.

You've said it now.

Is the link Germany?

-Ah, beaches.

-The correct answer was beaches.

HE READS THE CLUES

-Not to be.

-Not to be. But you played a brilliant game.

You took through £5,925 to the final round.

You were storming it when you were stood over there.

-Is it just cos you moved here, do you think?

-Yeah.

-Is it proximity to me?

-Might have been!

-Could have been.

It was a pleasure having you playing The Link.

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

Thank you very much indeed, Sue and Chris.

-Thank you.

-APPLAUSE

Join us next time when three more pairs will be playing The Link.

See you then. Goodbye.
