0:05:330:05:35

Becky.

0:05:360:05:37

-What do you do, Carol?

-I'm a midwife.

-Are any of your patients too posh to push?

0:05:390:05:46

There have been those ones.

0:05:460:05:49

-And if they say, "I'm too posh to push," what do you say?

-I try to talk them around.

-How?

0:05:490:05:55

I just try to let them know how fulfilling it would be

0:05:550:06:00

to try to go through the birth process naturally and normally.

0:06:000:06:05

-But it hurts.

The ones that think they know best and can't cope when their partner's in pain,

0:06:200:06:26

-so they insist their wife has an epidural, when the women are managing.

-And what do you say?

0:06:260:06:32

I tend to say let's talk to the woman and see what she decides.

0:06:320:06:37

-And why Becky?

-She got a question wrong, unfortunately.

0:06:370:06:41

0:06:490:06:55

-Who asked you?

-The church I work for.

-What's different about it?

0:06:550:06:59

-It's just going to try and reach other people that other churches aren't reaching.

-Like who?

0:06:590:07:06

People that don't go to church now.

0:07:080:07:15

-Sex before marriage?

-That desperate?

0:07:150:07:20

I did a degree in forensic biology, so I want a job in forensics.

0:07:470:07:51

-So you're CSI: Tyneside?

0:08:110:08:14

-Why have you got all those tattoos?

-Why not? You only live once.

0:08:150:08:20

-Does your mother like those?

-Em...she does now. She's got no choice, but I think she does.

0:08:200:08:27

-Did she at the beginning?

-She said if I was going to get them I might as well do it properly

0:08:270:08:33

-and get a load of them. So I did.

-So you were very obedient. Why Becky?

-She was the first one

0:08:330:08:39

to get a question wrong.

0:08:390:08:41

Becky, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:08:410:08:45

The first time I saw Anne, I did feel terrified. She's as scary as she does look on the telly.

0:18:110:18:13

Time's up. You won £370.

But who's still good value

0:18:200:18:22

Dave.

0:18:570:18:58

Dave.

0:19:090:19:11

-I'm 48, Anne.

-Aren't you a bit old for clubbing?

-When they give me my bus pass. You know you're past it then.

-Yes.

0:19:480:19:53

-Why Dave?

-He got a couple wrong.

0:19:530:19:56

-Are you attracted to Dave?

-See, whenever you say that to a straight man there's no good answer.

0:19:560:20:02

If you say yes, they're not happy. If you say no, they want to know what's wrong with them.

0:20:020:20:08

-He got a couple wrong.

0:20:080:20:12

-Did you say, "When I grow up I want to be a health and safety trainer"?

0:20:330:20:39

-No, just an engine driver.

-And what went wrong?

0:20:390:20:43

The railways stopped short of where we came from.

0:20:430:20:47

-Why Dave?

-I think Dave had...

-Is he fantastically attractive?

-I think he's beautiful.

0:20:470:20:54

Dave, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:20:570:21:01

Playing the Weakest Link for real is a lot harder than at home.

0:21:070:21:11

The questions are not harder, it's just the environment.

0:21:110:21:15

And nobody wants to make a fool of themselves on national television,

0:21:150:21:20

which I succeeded in doing, but there you go.

0:25:560:25:58

I don't think Anne's as bad when you actually face her as she makes out to be.

0:30:020:30:05

Carol, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:30:060:30:09

I think the winner's going to be Julie. She seems really strong and she's been consistent throughout.

0:30:140:30:21

Hopefully, she can hold her nerve, get to the end and take it through for the girls.

0:30:210:30:26

Round 6 and you have £2,160. Another ten seconds off the time.

0:30:280:30:33

We'll start with the strongest link. That's Ken.

0:32:510:32:57

Is Ken a risk?

0:32:570:32:59

Maybe Andrew doesn't have a prayer?

0:33:000:33:03

Should Julie be written out?

0:33:030:33:05

Or does all the evidence point to Allie?

0:33:050:33:08

Time to vote off the weakest link.

0:33:080:33:11

0:33:460:33:50

-Andrew, why Allie?

-I just thought she had answered more questions wrong than I had.

0:33:500:33:56

When the vote's tied, the strongest link has to cast the deciding vote and the strongest link was Julie.

0:33:560:34:02

-Why have you voted for Andrew?

-Because I remember him getting a question wrong.

0:34:020:34:07

You've got a choice now. You can stick with Andrew or move to Allie.

0:34:070:34:12

No, I'll stick with Andrew. Sorry, Andrew.

0:34:120:34:15

Andrew, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:34:150:34:17

Anne was every bit what I expected.

0:34:240:34:27

She's very glamorous, she's very beautiful, very composed.

0:34:310:34:34

Round 7. Your total is £2,260. Another ten seconds off the time.
