Hello. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:19 | |
I'm Mark Williams, and welcome to The Link, | 0:00:19 | 0:00:21 | |
where knowing the answers is only half the battle. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:24 | |
To win this game, you have to find the link BETWEEN the answers. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:28 | |
Three teams are hoping to make the right connections, | 0:00:28 | 0:00:30 | |
but only one of them can be in today's final. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:33 | |
Let's see who's | 0:00:33 | 0:00:34 | |
keyed-up, keen and knowledgeable. | 0:00:34 | 0:00:36 | |
I'm Lesley, I'm a primary school teacher from Manchester | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
-and this is my friend... -I'm Joanne, | 0:00:43 | 0:00:45 | |

APPLAUSE | 0:00:49 | 0:00:50 | |
And the line is, you're friends. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:52 | |
There's another line as well, isn't there? | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
Don't you have a common interest in dance, and...? | 0:00:54 | 0:00:56 | |
I would like to perhaps learn to dance one day, | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
and dress all glitzy. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
-Dress all glitzy. -Yeah. -Yeah, I do some adult dancing at the moment. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:05 | |

-Oh, ar... -And we've got a showcase coming up in June, | 0:01:08 | 0:01:11 | |
which I'm looking forward to. We're hijacking the children's show, | 0:01:11 | 0:01:14 | |
and we're doing a dance, so we're looking forward to it. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:17 | |
You're just going to say to the kids, "No, you can't dance!"? | 0:01:17 | 0:01:20 | |
-APPLAUSE -Do YOU dress glitzy? | 0:01:20 | 0:01:22 | |
No, unfortunately, it's not that glitzy, | 0:01:22 | 0:01:24 | |

Welcome to The Link. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:41 | |
Welcome, all. Now, pay attention. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
Here are six cash pods, containing amounts ranging from £125 | 0:02:44 | 0:02:49 | |
to £2,000. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
The more cash in the pod, the more links holding it. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
You have to cut the links holding the pods until they drop down | 0:02:53 | 0:02:56 | |
into your bank, and here's how you cut the links. | 0:02:56 | 0:03:00 | |
I'm going to ask you four questions, and you have to work out | 0:03:00 | 0:03:03 | |
what links the answers. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:06 | |
If you can find that link from the first answer alone, | 0:03:06 | 0:03:09 | |
you'll be able to cut four of those links. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
If you spot it after the second answer, | 0:03:11 | 0:03:13 | |
you can cut three...then two... | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
then one. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
And, of course, the link here is... | 0:03:18 | 0:03:19 | |
-ALL: Sweets! -Sweets! | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
Yes! | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |

You need to bank as much as you can, because the team | 0:03:27 | 0:03:29 | |

will be going through to the next round. | 0:25:16 | 0:25:19 | |
The same cannot be said of Lesley and Joanne or Emma and Carlo, | 0:25:19 | 0:25:23 | |
so stand by. For four links... | 0:25:23 | 0:25:26 | |
Who was elected leader of the Labour Party | 0:25:27 | 0:25:29 | |

No. Clement Attlee. | 0:25:46 | 0:25:48 | |
So, nobody has a chance to make the link. All back in play, stand by. | 0:25:51 | 0:25:56 | |
For three links... | 0:25:56 | 0:25:57 | |

Correct. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:06 | |
Clement Attlee, Michael Heseltine, what's the link? | 0:26:06 | 0:26:09 | |
Heseltine, erm... | 0:26:09 | 0:26:11 | |
-What job did he have in the cabinet? -Chancellor of the Exchequer? | 0:26:11 | 0:26:15 | |
No, I don't think he was. He was, oh... | 0:26:15 | 0:26:19 | |
-Can't think what his job was. -What's the link? | 0:26:19 | 0:26:22 | |
Erm...go for that, go for that. | 0:26:22 | 0:26:25 | |
-Chancellor of the Exchequers. -Is the link Chancellor of the Exchequers? | 0:26:25 | 0:26:30 | |
Nope. | 0:26:32 | 0:26:35 | |
For two links. | 0:26:35 | 0:26:37 | |
Stand by. | 0:26:37 | 0:26:39 | |

It's correct. | 0:26:54 | 0:26:56 | |

what's the link? | 0:26:59 | 0:27:00 | |
-Maybe coalition governments? -Yeah, coalition governments. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:05 | |
Is the link coalition governments? | 0:27:05 | 0:27:06 | |

By Chumbawumba, I seem to remember. | 0:27:23 | 0:27:26 | |
The answer, of course, was John Prescott. | 0:27:26 | 0:27:29 | |
Clement Attlee, Michael Heseltine, Nick Clegg, John Prescott - | 0:27:29 | 0:27:32 | |
-what's the link? -CARLO LAUGHS | 0:27:32 | 0:27:34 | |

-Deputy Prime Ministers. -Is the link Deputy Prime Minister? | 0:27:39 | 0:27:44 | |
EMMA SIGHS WITH RELIEF | 0:27:45 | 0:27:46 | |
Yes, they were all Deputy Prime Ministers. | 0:27:51 | 0:27:54 | |
Right, one link. How are you going to use it? | 0:27:54 | 0:27:56 | |
-What shall we do(?) -Can I do the middle one? | 0:27:56 | 0:27:59 | |
Probably won't need much discussion. You can't specify where. | 0:27:59 | 0:28:03 | |
Let's cut a link on the £2,000 pod. | 0:28:03 | 0:28:06 | |
Right, stand by, for four links. | 0:28:08 | 0:28:12 | |
What is the first name of Kiefer Sutherland's father? | 0:28:12 | 0:28:15 | |

Yep. | 0:28:17 | 0:28:19 | |
-First clue. -Erm... -Disney characters... | 0:28:20 | 0:28:25 | |
-Shall we just go ducks? -Go ducks. -We'll say ducks. | 0:28:25 | 0:28:29 | |
OK. Is the link ducks? | 0:28:29 | 0:28:31 | |
-NICK: -Yay! | 0:28:35 | 0:28:36 | |
The remaining clues were... | 0:28:39 | 0:28:41 | |
Orville, Scrooge McDuck, who was the miserable uncle of | 0:28:41 | 0:28:46 | |
Huey, Dewey and Louie, and Jemima, who was a Puddle-Duck. | 0:28:46 | 0:28:50 | |
Well done, Nick and Pete, finally had the courage of your convictions, | 0:28:50 | 0:28:54 | |
didn't chuck yourself off, and thus you have four links to cut | 0:28:54 | 0:28:59 | |
with only two remaining on the £2,000. | 0:28:59 | 0:29:01 | |
So, let's put it out of its misery. | 0:29:01 | 0:29:03 | |
Meaning you have... | 0:29:08 | 0:29:10 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:29:10 | 0:29:12 | |
..£3,625 to take through to the next round. | 0:29:12 | 0:29:15 | |
Emma and Carlo will also be going through to join you with £1,050, | 0:29:15 | 0:29:19 | |
and we're saying goodbye to Lesley and Joanne. | 0:29:19 | 0:29:22 | |
Thank you very much, | 0:29:22 | 0:29:23 | |
good luck with the dancing this summer. | 0:29:23 | 0:29:25 | |
-Thank you, bye. -Lesley and Joanne, thanks for playing The Link. | 0:29:25 | 0:29:29 | |
Nick and Pete, Emma and Carlo, you're still in the game. | 0:29:32 | 0:29:35 | |
Nick and Pete, you've banked £3,625, Emma and Carlo, | 0:29:35 | 0:29:39 | |
you've banked £1,050. | 0:29:39 | 0:29:41 | |
That money is now in these two cash pods, held by seven links. | 0:29:41 | 0:29:46 | |
The first team to cut all the links and release their cash pod | 0:29:46 | 0:29:49 | |
takes their money through to the final round. | 0:29:49 | 0:29:52 | |
The other team will be out. | 0:29:52 | 0:29:55 | |
And now you can be as brave or as cautious as you like, | 0:29:55 | 0:29:58 | |
because you decide how many links you want to cut. | 0:29:58 | 0:30:01 | |
I'm going to ask you to identify a person, | 0:30:01 | 0:30:03 | |
place or thing from a series of clues, and you tell me | 0:30:03 | 0:30:06 | |
whether you want to play for one, two, three or four links. | 0:30:06 | 0:30:10 | |
But the more links you play for, the fewer clues you'll receive. | 0:30:10 | 0:30:14 | |
We start with the team who has brought the most money | 0:30:14 | 0:30:16 | |
through to this round, and that is Nick and Pete. | 0:30:16 | 0:30:19 | |
Stand by. Round two. The first question is asking... | 0:30:23 | 0:30:26 | |
-Nick and Pete, how many links? -Play safe, play safe, go for two? -Yeah. | 0:30:29 | 0:30:34 | |
-Two links. -For two links... | 0:30:34 | 0:30:37 | |
what am I? Here are your clues. | 0:30:37 | 0:30:38 | |
-Going to have to. It's the only one I know. -It is, yeah. -We'll go for... | 0:31:00 | 0:31:03 | |
-It was Mona Lisa? -Mona Lisa. -Mona Lisa. -Am I the Mona Lisa? | 0:31:03 | 0:31:07 | |
The remaining clue was... | 0:31:11 | 0:31:13 | |
Yes. So, let's cut your two links. | 0:31:18 | 0:31:21 | |
Leaving five. Emma and Carlo, your go. Your question will be asking... | 0:31:24 | 0:31:29 | |
-How many links, Emma and Carlo? -Two links I think. | 0:31:31 | 0:31:35 | |
For two links, here are your clues. What am I? | 0:31:35 | 0:31:37 | |
-It's got to be Australia. -Yeah, Australia. -Australia. | 0:31:57 | 0:32:01 | |
Am I Australia? | 0:32:01 | 0:32:02 | |
No. Which means, Nick and Pete, you have a chance to nick a link. | 0:32:04 | 0:32:07 | |
You will see the remaining clue, | 0:32:07 | 0:32:09 | |
for the chance to cut a single link from your cash pod, and it is... | 0:32:09 | 0:32:12 | |
See, I'm thinking Brazil, cos America's got four time zones anyway. | 0:32:20 | 0:32:24 | |
-Brazil's got all the white stars. -Brazil, yeah. | 0:32:24 | 0:32:27 | |
-We'll go for Brazil. -Am I Brazil? | 0:32:27 | 0:32:29 | |
-APPLAUSE -I am. | 0:32:31 | 0:32:34 | |
You nicked a link. That means we'll cut it. | 0:32:35 | 0:32:39 | |
Four links remaining on your £3,625 pod. And it's your turn. | 0:32:41 | 0:32:47 | |
Nick and Pete, your question will be asking... | 0:32:47 | 0:32:49 | |
How many links? | 0:32:52 | 0:32:54 | |
-Shall we just go for two again? -Just go for two. | 0:32:54 | 0:32:56 | |
-We'll go for two links, please, Mark. -For two links...who am I? | 0:32:56 | 0:33:01 | |
Here are your clues. | 0:33:01 | 0:33:02 | |

-Am I John McEnroe. -Anger Management. -Yeah, yeah. | 0:33:30 | 0:33:32 | |
Yes. | 0:33:34 | 0:33:35 | |
The remaining clue was... | 0:33:35 | 0:33:37 | |
Right, let's cut those links. | 0:33:44 | 0:33:46 | |
Two links remaining. Emma and Carlo, your turn. | 0:33:49 | 0:33:52 | |
Your question will be asking... | 0:33:52 | 0:33:54 | |
-How many links? -I reckon we should go for two links again. -Really? | 0:33:56 | 0:34:00 | |
But then they... Hmm. | 0:34:00 | 0:34:01 | |
-Shall we go for three, then? -Yeah, why not? | 0:34:04 | 0:34:06 | |
-All right, go for three links. -THEY GIGGLE | 0:34:06 | 0:34:09 | |
-OK, why not? -Living on the edge. -Living on the edge, OK, good. | 0:34:09 | 0:34:12 | |
Right, for three links...who am I? | 0:34:12 | 0:34:15 | |
Here are your clues. | 0:34:15 | 0:34:17 | |
-Woody? Is it Woody? -What's Woody? -You know, out of Toy Story. | 0:34:31 | 0:34:36 | |
-That's Tim Allen, isn't it? And he's a cartoon. -Yeah. -Yeah? Woody. | 0:34:36 | 0:34:40 | |
Am I Woody? | 0:34:40 | 0:34:42 | |
-No. -Ahhh. | 0:34:43 | 0:34:45 | |
Nick and Pete, you now have a chance to nick a link. | 0:34:45 | 0:34:47 | |
Here are the remaining clues. | 0:34:47 | 0:34:49 | |
-Father Christmas. -Am I Father Christmas? | 0:35:00 | 0:35:03 | |
Father Christmas, yeah. | 0:35:05 | 0:35:07 | |
Right, you've nicked a link. That means we cut one link from your pod. | 0:35:09 | 0:35:13 | |
Which trembles now, with only one link remaining, and it's your go. | 0:35:15 | 0:35:20 | |
Your question will be asking you... | 0:35:20 | 0:35:22 | |
To go through to the final round with £3,625...how many links? | 0:35:25 | 0:35:31 | |
-(One.) -Just one, please. -For one link...what am I? | 0:35:33 | 0:35:37 | |
Here are your clues, Nick and Pete. | 0:35:37 | 0:35:39 | |
-We're going to go for Penny Black. -Am I the Penny Black? | 0:36:06 | 0:36:10 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:36:13 | 0:36:14 | |
Well done, let's cut that final link. | 0:36:19 | 0:36:21 | |
There you go. | 0:36:23 | 0:36:24 | |
Well done, Nick and Pete, you're through to the final round, | 0:36:24 | 0:36:28 | |
and that cash goes with you. | 0:36:28 | 0:36:30 | |
-Emma, Carlo, bad luck. -Yeah, that was quite bad. | 0:36:32 | 0:36:36 | |
-And you've been very amusing. -Cheers. | 0:36:36 | 0:36:38 | |
Thanks for coming today and playing The Link, | 0:36:38 | 0:36:41 | |
-but sadly, goodbye. -Goodbye. | 0:36:41 | 0:36:44 | |
Nick and Pete, you are today's finalists. | 0:36:48 | 0:36:50 | |
You've brought through £3,625, and we're adding £2,000 to that, | 0:36:50 | 0:36:57 | |
making your maximum win today £5,625. | 0:36:57 | 0:37:02 | |
Chaps....your route to the final round wasn't easy, was it? | 0:37:06 | 0:37:11 | |
No, we tripped up a couple of times. | 0:37:11 | 0:37:14 | |
You tripped up more than twice. | 0:37:14 | 0:37:16 | |
But you pulled it back in the end, quite comprehensively. | 0:37:16 | 0:37:19 | |
Well done, you're here. | 0:37:19 | 0:37:20 | |
What are you going to do with the £5,625 if you win it? | 0:37:20 | 0:37:25 | |
I'm a mad cricket fan, | 0:37:25 | 0:37:26 | |
-so I'd quite like to go to the World Cup in Australia. -OK. | 0:37:26 | 0:37:28 | |
-March next year. -And I'd like to take my girlfriend over to Peru. | 0:37:28 | 0:37:32 | |
-OK, so you're going opposite ways round the world. -Best way. | 0:37:32 | 0:37:35 | |
-LAUGHTER -Fine. | 0:37:35 | 0:37:36 | |
To take that money home, | 0:37:36 | 0:37:37 | |
you have just 60 seconds to find six super-links. | 0:37:37 | 0:37:40 | |
At each level, you need to identify the link between ten one-word clues. | 0:37:43 | 0:37:47 | |
As soon as you think you know the answer, | 0:37:47 | 0:37:48 | |
buzz in and we'll stop the clock. | 0:37:48 | 0:37:50 | |
If you're right, you can take that money home, but choose to | 0:37:50 | 0:37:53 | |
play on and your team-mate will tackle the next super-link. | 0:37:53 | 0:37:57 | |
But if you're wrong, play stays with you. | 0:37:57 | 0:38:00 | |
We will restart the clock and you'll face a new set of clues. | 0:38:00 | 0:38:03 | |
Run out of time and you leave with pockets full of nothing. | 0:38:03 | 0:38:08 | |
-Who's going to play first? -I'll play first. -OK, Pete. | 0:38:08 | 0:38:12 | |
Pete, you're on your own. | 0:38:12 | 0:38:13 | |
The clock will start when you see the first clue. | 0:38:13 | 0:38:16 | |
-Are you ready? -I'm ready. | 0:38:16 | 0:38:18 | |
Pete. | 0:38:28 | 0:38:30 | |
Cartoons. | 0:38:30 | 0:38:32 | |
Is the link cartoons? | 0:38:32 | 0:38:33 | |
No. | 0:38:35 | 0:38:37 | |
Little Britain. | 0:38:37 | 0:38:38 | |
Remaining clues were... | 0:38:38 | 0:38:40 | |
It would have taken me to Walliams. | 0:38:44 | 0:38:46 | |
Which means play stays with you, Pete, and you face a new super-link. | 0:38:46 | 0:38:50 | |
52 seconds left. The clock will restart when the first clue appears. | 0:38:50 | 0:38:55 | |
Pete. | 0:39:07 | 0:39:08 | |
African states. | 0:39:10 | 0:39:12 | |
Didn't have a chance to say McKinley. | 0:39:14 | 0:39:16 | |
Is the link African states? | 0:39:18 | 0:39:20 | |
No. Mountains. | 0:39:22 | 0:39:24 | |
The remaining clues were... | 0:39:24 | 0:39:26 | |
Which means, once again, Pete, play stays with you. | 0:39:30 | 0:39:34 | |
You face a new super-link. | 0:39:34 | 0:39:36 | |
42 seconds left. The clock will restart when the first clue appears. | 0:39:36 | 0:39:41 | |
Are you ready? | 0:39:41 | 0:39:43 | |
Pete. | 0:39:58 | 0:40:00 | |
Horse jockeys. | 0:40:00 | 0:40:01 | |
Is the link horse jockeys? | 0:40:02 | 0:40:05 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:40:07 | 0:40:10 | |
The remaining clue was... | 0:40:10 | 0:40:11 | |
Our Frankie. | 0:40:14 | 0:40:16 | |
That puts you on £125. | 0:40:16 | 0:40:19 | |
Nick and Pete, with 29 seconds remaining on the clock, | 0:40:21 | 0:40:24 | |
you now have a choice. | 0:40:24 | 0:40:25 | |
You can now take that money and go, or you can play on. | 0:40:25 | 0:40:28 | |
-We'll play on. -OK. | 0:40:29 | 0:40:32 | |
Good. Nick. | 0:40:32 | 0:40:34 | |
Your turn now. You're on your own. | 0:40:34 | 0:40:35 | |
The clock will restart when the first clue appears. Stand by. | 0:40:35 | 0:40:39 | |
Nick. | 0:40:48 | 0:40:50 | |
Mythical birds. | 0:40:50 | 0:40:52 | |
Is the link mythical birds? | 0:40:52 | 0:40:54 | |
You over-defined yourselves, again. | 0:40:59 | 0:41:01 | |
Well, actually, it was you, Nick. Pete, I exclude you from that. | 0:41:01 | 0:41:04 | |
The remaining clues were... | 0:41:04 | 0:41:05 | |
Which means, Nick, play stays with you and you face a new super-link. | 0:41:10 | 0:41:15 | |
21 seconds left. The clock will restart when the first clue appears. | 0:41:15 | 0:41:20 | |
-Nick. -Michael Caine. | 0:41:35 | 0:41:38 | |
Is the link Michael Caine? | 0:41:38 | 0:41:39 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:41:42 | 0:41:44 | |
We'll accept that. | 0:41:46 | 0:41:48 | |
Hey, you two. You know how to make it dramatic, don't you? | 0:41:48 | 0:41:53 | |
Right. That puts you on... | 0:41:53 | 0:41:54 | |
..£300. | 0:41:56 | 0:41:57 | |
With eight seconds now remaining on the clock, you now have a choice. | 0:41:57 | 0:42:00 | |
You can take that money and go, or you can play on. | 0:42:00 | 0:42:03 | |
I don't know. What do you want to do? | 0:42:05 | 0:42:09 | |
I mean, eight seconds will get you about seven or eight clues, | 0:42:09 | 0:42:11 | |
but they haven't been all that easy, so... | 0:42:11 | 0:42:15 | |
Let's stick on 300. It's better than a poke in the eye. | 0:42:15 | 0:42:19 | |
We'll stick on 300, please, Mark. | 0:42:19 | 0:42:21 | |
Well, the way your luck's been running, | 0:42:21 | 0:42:23 | |
I think that's probably a very wise decision. | 0:42:23 | 0:42:26 | |
Nick and Pete, you didn't make it to today's top prize, | 0:42:26 | 0:42:29 | |
but you're going home with £300. | 0:42:29 | 0:42:31 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:42:31 | 0:42:33 | |
Are you all right? I'm like, "Phew, cor!" | 0:42:36 | 0:42:39 | |
It's a lot harder than you think. | 0:42:39 | 0:42:41 | |
Yeah, some are easy. | 0:42:41 | 0:42:43 | |
If you know them, of course, like any questions, they're easy. | 0:42:43 | 0:42:46 | |
But you did really well and I'm glad you're taking something home. | 0:42:46 | 0:42:49 | |
Yeah, that will go on a couple of pints and a curry tonight. | 0:42:49 | 0:42:53 | |
Brilliant. Thank you, Nick and Pete, for playing The Link. | 0:42:53 | 0:42:56 | |
Thank you. | 0:42:56 | 0:42:58 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:42:58 | 0:43:00 | |
Join us next time, when three more pairs will be trying to make all | 0:43:01 | 0:43:04 | |
the right connections on The Link. See you then. Goodbye. | 0:43:04 | 0:43:07 |
