0:00:16 > 0:00:18Hello, I'm Mark Williams and welcome to The Link
0:00:18 > 0:00:20where knowing the answers is only half the battle.
0:00:20 > 0:00:24To win this game you have to find the link between the answers.
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Three teams are hoping to make the right connections
0:00:27 > 0:00:29but only one of them can be in today's final.
0:00:29 > 0:00:33Let's see who's needle sharp and full of nous.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39I'm Julie, I'm a leadership and talent development manager
0:00:39 > 0:00:41from Dunstable and this is my friend.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43I'm Christine, I'm a communications manager
0:00:43 > 0:00:45and I'm from Leighton Buzzard.
0:00:45 > 0:00:47APPLAUSE
0:00:47 > 0:00:50And the link is, as Julie pointed out, you're friends.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53- Yes.- Christine.- Yes. - Apparently, is this true?
0:00:53 > 0:00:55That you and Julie met each other through a different route
0:00:55 > 0:00:58and found out that you used to be neighbours.
0:00:58 > 0:01:02- Yes, our parents' gardens back onto each other.- Right.
0:01:02 > 0:01:04So throughout our childhood, our gardens backed onto each other
0:01:04 > 0:01:08- but we were not in school together. - That happens, doesn't it?
0:01:08 > 0:01:12- You're 2ft away from somebody but in a different part of the world.- Yeah.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15- Yes.- Anyway, you got together in the end, good.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18Julie and Christine, welcome.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20Jon and Mike, tell us about yourselves.
0:01:20 > 0:01:24I'm Jon, I'm from Weymouth in Dorset, I'm a security guard
0:01:24 > 0:01:25and this is my son.
0:01:25 > 0:01:29I'm Mike, I'm also from Weymouth and I'm a semi-professional wrestler.
0:01:29 > 0:01:32APPLAUSE
0:01:32 > 0:01:36Jon and Mike, the link is you're father and son.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39- Mike, you're a real wrestler? - That is correct.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42How did you get into wrestling, Mike?
0:01:42 > 0:01:44Saw it first when I was about eight years old,
0:01:44 > 0:01:48kept nudging my old man, I was just like, "Give us a go, give us a go."
0:01:48 > 0:01:51Eventually when I was 14 he said, "All right then, let's give it a go."
0:01:51 > 0:01:54- OK.- He'll get injured and the second he's get injured
0:01:54 > 0:01:56he'll be like, "I don't want to do this."
0:01:56 > 0:01:58First session, come over the top rope and I get a rope burn
0:01:58 > 0:02:01- from the top of my chin all the way to the bottom of my chest.- Oh!
0:02:01 > 0:02:02I was purple for weeks and he said,
0:02:02 > 0:02:05"He's never going to do that again." I was like, "Let's go again.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08- "Let's do it!" And I've just carried on.- Brilliant.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11And luckily I'm a biggish guy anyway so I kind of fit into the scene.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13"Dad, Dad, can I be a wrestler?"
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Excellent. Jon and Mike, welcome.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19Muna and Leethen, tell us about yourselves.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22I'm Muna, I'm a training coordinator from London
0:02:22 > 0:02:24and this is my colleague.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27I'm Leethen, I'm a social worker from London.
0:02:27 > 0:02:28APPLAUSE
0:02:28 > 0:02:31And the link is, of course, that you're colleagues.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33- Muna, pigeons?- Yes.
0:02:33 > 0:02:36- Right, you don't like them.- No, I'm really scared of them.- Are you?
0:02:36 > 0:02:39Yeah, I cross the road to avoid them. At stations I'm always on
0:02:39 > 0:02:43kind of high alert because they're all over swooping in your face so...
0:02:43 > 0:02:44Swooping in your face.
0:02:44 > 0:02:48- They do, yeah.- Do you reckon they're personally out to get you?
0:02:48 > 0:02:50- I do, yeah.- OK, that's fine.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53They might be, I doubt it though.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Muna and Leethen, welcome.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59Welcome all. Now, pay attention.
0:02:59 > 0:03:05Here are six cash pods containing amounts ranging from £125 to £2,000.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08The more cash in the pod the more links holding it.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11What you have to do is cut the links holding the pods
0:03:11 > 0:03:14until they drop into your bank and here's how you cut the links.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16I'm going to ask you four questions
0:03:16 > 0:03:20and you have to work out what links the answers.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22If you can find that link from the first answer alone,
0:03:22 > 0:03:24you'll be able to cut four of those links.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28If you spot it after the second answer you can cut three links,
0:03:28 > 0:03:29then two, then one.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35And of course the link here is...
0:03:35 > 0:03:36- ALL:- Trees.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38Trees, they chorus.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42You need to bank as much as you can because the team with
0:03:42 > 0:03:46the least amount of money at the end of this round will be going home.
0:03:47 > 0:03:48Let's play The Link.
0:03:51 > 0:03:55Stand by. Round One. Here's the first question for four links.
0:03:57 > 0:04:01In 1967, The Beatles had a UK top two hit with

0:04:15 > 0:04:17- Could be bicycles maybe? Penny-farthing.- Ooh.
0:04:17 > 0:04:20- Something like that.- Yeah, I wouldn't have thought of that.
0:04:20 > 0:04:21- I was thinking coins but...- OK.
0:04:21 > 0:04:25- That's good.- But no, actually I think, well, bicycles is good.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28- Go with them?- Yeah. - Let's go bicycles.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30- Mark, we're going to go with bicycles.- OK.
0:04:30 > 0:04:31Is bicycles the link?

0:05:01 > 0:05:03It is a buck.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06- Penny, buck. What's the link? - OK, I think it is money then.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08- Yeah, let's go with money. - Yes, yes.- Terms for money.
0:05:10 > 0:05:11Is the link money?
0:05:13 > 0:05:14No.

0:05:22 > 0:05:24- BUZZER - Mike?- Nickel.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Nickel is correct.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29Penny, buck, nickel. What's the link?
0:05:29 > 0:05:33I think we're looking at American money as opposed to just money
0:05:33 > 0:05:35- so I think we should go with that. - American money.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38Mark, we're going to go with American money.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40OK, is the link American money?
0:05:42 > 0:05:44APPLAUSE
0:05:44 > 0:05:46The final clue would've been...
0:05:47 > 0:05:49They're all slang terms.
0:05:49 > 0:05:54Penny's a cent, buck a dollar, nickel five cents, quarter 25 cents.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58Julie and Christine, it's all about being specific
0:05:58 > 0:06:00and I'm afraid you were wrong.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02Jon and Mike,
0:06:02 > 0:06:07you got that on the third clue which means you can cut two links.
0:06:07 > 0:06:11- Mark, we'd like to use the two links on the green 300, please.- Right.
0:06:11 > 0:06:15Thank you for colour coding. Well done. Let's cut those links.

0:06:45 > 0:06:48Maybe like astrology, kind of zodiac signs.

0:06:59 > 0:07:03OK, is the link zodiac signs?

0:07:56 > 0:08:00- Let's go field.- We'll go with field. - We'll go with field.- Right.

0:13:26 > 0:13:29and one from the 750.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32Can you run me through your tactics there, Jon and Mike?
0:13:32 > 0:13:36We couldn't win any money and we couldn't decide what to do, Mark.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40- It just seemed the safer option right now.- Brilliant. Honesty, brilliant.
0:13:40 > 0:13:41Well done.
0:13:41 > 0:13:44So there's five links left on the 2,000,
0:13:44 > 0:13:48that's not attainable in this next round however, £1,000 has only three
0:13:48 > 0:13:53links suspending it, £750 similarly so both of those will be in play.
