0:08:16 > 0:08:19you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:14:32 > 0:14:36How do you think you did in that round? I could have done better. Yes.
0:14:36 > 0:14:40Was Zoe the weakest link statistically?
0:14:40 > 0:14:43Er...I was the weakest link, probably, Anne.
0:14:43 > 0:14:47You were away with the pigeons. I was. It's votes that count.

0:15:00 > 0:15:03I was no way the weakest link in that round.

0:15:07 > 0:15:11I'd like to see Abi voted off next. She's a clever girl.
0:15:11 > 0:15:16She's getting all the questions right and banking, but she has no personality.
