Of the nine contestants preparing today, | 0:00:02 | 0:00:05 | |
only one will take home prize money of up to £10,000. | 0:00:05 | 0:00:08 | |
The rest will leave with nothing, | 0:00:08 | 0:00:11 | |
as, one by one, they're voted off as the weakest link. | 0:00:11 | 0:00:16 | |
Welcome to The Weakest Link. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:30 | |
Any of the nine people in the studio here today | 0:00:32 | 0:00:35 | |
could win up to £10,000. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:39 | |
They don't know each other. However, if they want the money, | 0:00:39 | 0:00:43 | |
they'll have to work as a team. But eight will leave with nothing, | 0:00:43 | 0:00:48 | |
as, round by round, we lose the player voted the weakest link. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:53 | |
Let's meet the team. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:55 | |

Get a question wrong and you lose the money in the chain. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:06 | |
If you say "bank" before the question is asked, the money is safe, | 0:02:06 | 0:02:11 | |
but you start a new chain. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
At the end of the round, only banked money can be taken forward. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:20 | |

-There are often negative stories. -What do you regard as a negative story? | 0:06:40 | 0:06:46 | |
If somebody goes to the press | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
about something they think we've done wrong. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:52 | |
I think that's a very positive thing. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:55 | |
It's positive for the press, yes. It fills lots of space. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:59 | |
-Why Douglas? -Because he got a question wrong. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:03 | |
Oh, that's very negative. How are you, Andy? | 0:07:03 | 0:07:06 | |
Mrs Robinson, I'm not too bad, thank you. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:09 | |

-He's not made a great impression on me just yet. -Hasn't he? | 0:08:02 | 0:08:06 | |
-Why Douglas? -Because he was one that got a question wrong. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:11 | |
Well, Douglas, you've had a negative effect here. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:15 | |
You are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:17 | |
Getting the piano question wrong was terrible. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:28 | |

and the next time I see one, I'll smash it up! | 0:08:31 | 0:08:34 | |
I'd like to see Catherine go next. I thought she was vindictive in voting for me, | 0:08:34 | 0:08:40 | |
and, for no other reason than that, I'd see her vanish quickly! | 0:08:40 | 0:08:44 | |

She gave the most wrong answers. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
The strongest link is Catherine, but will the team notice? | 0:12:18 | 0:12:22 | |
Voting over. It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:28 | |

-That's right, Anne. -What do you actually do? | 0:12:47 | 0:12:50 | |
I sell networking products. Cables, memory... | 0:12:50 | 0:12:55 | |
You sell memory? How do you sell memory? | 0:12:55 | 0:12:58 | |
-Erm... -Erm? Have you forgotten? | 0:12:58 | 0:13:02 | |

OK. I'm in France, and I speak English, | 0:13:09 | 0:13:12 | |
-and I've picked up the phone. -Hello, Anne. | 0:13:12 | 0:13:16 | |
Hello, Sam. | 0:13:16 | 0:13:18 | |
-My name's Sam. -Yeah, I know. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:20 | |
I work for so-and-so, and we sell memory. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:23 | |
HE LAUGHS That's normally good enough to buy. | 0:13:23 | 0:13:28 | |
-Wow(!) -Yeah. I'm that good. | 0:13:30 | 0:13:32 | |

as did a few others. | 0:13:37 | 0:13:40 | |
But hers sort of stuck in my mind. | 0:13:40 | 0:13:43 | |
-Joanne, the train conductor. -That's me. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:46 | |

That really annoys me. | 0:14:00 | 0:14:02 | |
Does it? And what do you say, Joanne? | 0:14:02 | 0:14:05 | |
"Put your mobile phone down, and give us your money." | 0:14:05 | 0:14:09 | |
-And what do they say? -Usually they do put it down. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:13 | |
And what's the nicest customer? | 0:14:13 | 0:14:15 | |
They have money ready, and they're polite. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:18 | |
Why Louisa? | 0:14:18 | 0:14:20 | |
She got two wrong. I really believe she was the weakest. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:24 | |
-Do you use public transport, Bob? -Not often. | 0:14:24 | 0:14:27 | |
-Why's that? -Cos I live out in the sticks, and there isn't any. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:32 | |
Oh, right. And why are you getting rid of Louisa? | 0:14:32 | 0:14:35 | |
She got two wrong. I can't remember anyone else doing that. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:39 | |

and with six votes, you are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:55 | |
I was really relieved to be voted off at that point | 0:15:01 | 0:15:05 | |
because I was getting nervous so probably it was for the best. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:09 | |
Catherine could be voted off next. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:12 | |
She got silly questions wrong | 0:15:12 | 0:15:14 | |

Voting over. Time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:32:51 | 0:32:56 | |

was the weakest link? | 0:33:19 | 0:33:21 | |
Probably not, no. | 0:33:21 | 0:33:22 | |

Oh, is it? | 0:33:34 | 0:33:36 | |
Sarah, you are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:33:36 | 0:33:39 | |
Two of the boys voted me off for being the last woman, | 0:33:46 | 0:33:50 | |
and, to be honest, I was feeling very vulnerable after the other girls went. | 0:33:50 | 0:33:55 | |
It's not right, the boys sticking together. They should give the stronger ones a chance. | 0:33:55 | 0:34:01 | |

In Round Eight you get the chance to treble what you bank, so there's £3,000 to be won. | 0:36:24 | 0:36:29 | |
The question is, | 0:36:29 | 0:36:31 | |
who is least likely to help you raise the bank balance? Time to vote off the weakest link. | 0:36:31 | 0:36:38 | |

to the strongest link in this. | 0:36:45 | 0:36:47 | |
Andy is the weakest link, as he got the most answers wrong. | 0:36:47 | 0:36:51 | |
But who will lose out in this final vote? | 0:36:51 | 0:36:54 | |
Voting over. Time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:36:55 | 0:37:00 | |
Darren, | 0:37:10 | 0:37:11 | |

When aren't you? | 0:37:15 | 0:37:17 | |

-Why Sam? -The boys in the corner were working well together. | 0:37:21 | 0:37:25 | |
Toilet-roll Andy... | 0:37:25 | 0:37:26 | |
That's a dirty move. | 0:37:27 | 0:37:29 | |
He's been out on a limb over there for a long time. It's time he went. | 0:37:29 | 0:37:34 | |
-He's the strongest link. -Then I'd rather play Darren in the final. | 0:37:34 | 0:37:39 | |
Is that why you two keep voting the same? | 0:37:39 | 0:37:41 | |
I've tried to be fair. If Darren's on the same wavelength as me - OK. | 0:37:41 | 0:37:47 | |
Fair? Is that Welsh fair(?) | 0:37:47 | 0:37:48 | |
That's Welsh fair. | 0:37:48 | 0:37:51 | |
Sam, you're the victim of Welsh fair, jealousy, | 0:37:51 | 0:37:55 | |
and the fact that there's two cowards this side. | 0:37:55 | 0:37:58 | |
Sadly, you are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:37:59 | 0:38:02 | |
I'm very annoyed I'm not in the final. | 0:38:09 | 0:38:12 | |
If I'd faced either Andy or Darren, I could have beaten both of them, | 0:38:12 | 0:38:17 | |
I'm confident in that. | 0:38:17 | 0:38:18 | |
I just think it was very cowardly. | 0:38:18 | 0:38:21 | |
Round Eight. | 0:38:22 | 0:38:23 | |

You have 90 seconds, but whatever you win in this round will be trebled. | 0:38:27 | 0:38:32 | |
So £3,000 is at stake. | 0:38:32 | 0:38:36 | |
In your wisdom, | 0:38:36 | 0:38:37 | |

which you didn't know either or you wouldn't have shouted "Bank". | 0:40:25 | 0:40:30 | |
You won £60, which trebled and added to your previous winnings | 0:40:30 | 0:40:35 | |
means prize money of... | 0:40:35 | 0:40:37 | |
But only one of you can take this home, | 0:40:38 | 0:40:41 | |
so now you'll play against each other head to head. | 0:40:41 | 0:40:45 | |
I'll ask alternating questions, best of five. Whoever answers the most correctly wins. | 0:40:45 | 0:40:51 | |

Slightly lucky to be in the final, bit sorry for Sam, | 0:43:39 | 0:43:42 | |
but I didn't want to be against him in the final. | 0:43:42 | 0:43:46 | |

but it turned out the right one. | 0:43:48 | 0:43:50 | |
I'm a bit deflated. I was nearly there, | 0:43:50 | 0:43:53 | |
