Of the nine contestants on today's show,

0:00:010:00:04

only one will take home prize money of up to £10,000.

0:00:040:00:08

The rest will leave with nothing

0:00:080:00:11

as, one by one, they're voted off as the weakest link.

0:00:110:00:15

Welcome to The Weakest Link.

0:00:290:00:31

Any of the nine people in the studio here today could win up to £10,000.

0:00:320:00:38

They don't know each other,

0:00:380:00:41

however, if they want the money, they'll have to work as a team.

0:00:410:00:45

But eight of them will leave with nothing

0:00:450:00:48

as, round by round, we lose the player voted the weakest link. Let's meet the team.

0:00:480:00:55

I'm Jos. I'm 33. I'm from Mildenhall in Suffolk,

0:00:570:01:01

and I'm an IT systems administrator.

0:01:010:01:03

My name's Andy. I'm 22, from Dunoon in Scotland,

0:01:050:01:08

now living in Walton-on-Thames. I'm a project engineer.

0:01:080:01:12

I'm Kevin. I'm 48, from South Staffordshire.

0:01:120:01:16

I'm a vehicle finance broker.

0:01:160:01:18

I'm Claire. I'm 25, from Cambridge. I'm a private tutor.

0:01:190:01:23

My name is Sue. I'm 49.

0:01:240:01:26

I'm from Northampton and I'm a professional gardener.

0:01:260:01:30

I'm Barry. I'm 54, from Hampshire. I'm a sales manager.

0:01:300:01:34

I'm Gillian. I'm 41. I come from Malden in Essex.

0:01:350:01:39

I'm a Housing Association officer.

0:01:390:01:41

I'm Anthony. I'm 33. I'm from Swansea.

0:01:410:01:44

I'm a co-ordinator in the computer industry.

0:01:440:01:48

My name's Richard. I'm 28, from Birmingham.

0:01:480:01:51

I'm an area manager in the leisure industry.

0:01:510:01:54

Now the rules. In each round, the aim is to answer enough questions correctly

0:01:540:02:01

to reach your target within the limit.

0:02:010:02:04

The fastest way is to create a chain of nine correct answers.

0:02:040:02:09

Get your question wrong, you break the chain and lose the money.

0:02:090:02:13

If you say "bank" before the question is asked, the money is safe

0:02:130:02:18

but you start a new chain from scratch.

0:02:180:02:21

Remember, at the end of the round, only banked money can be carried forward.

0:02:210:02:27

In Round One, there are three minutes on the clock.

Richard. Food...

0:05:420:05:44

Time is up. Well, you banked £650 out of a possible £1,000.

0:05:450:05:51

But whose performance is already showing very, very worrying cracks?

0:05:510:05:58

One of you is about to leave with nothing. It's time to vote off...

0:05:580:06:03

the weakest link.

0:06:030:06:04

In Round One, Kevin is the strongest link statistically.

0:06:050:06:09

Sue is the weakest link,

0:06:090:06:11

while Andy banked the most money.

0:06:110:06:14

How much will the others realise so early in the game?

0:06:140:06:18

Voting over. Time to reveal who you think is the weakest link.

0:06:190:06:24

Team, on that first round

0:06:400:06:43

you answered nine questions in a row.

0:06:430:06:45

So,

0:06:450:06:48

if you hadn't panicked and banked,

0:06:480:06:51

you would have reached the £1,000 target before the time limit.

0:06:510:06:55

Andy, what do you do?

0:06:550:06:58

I'm a project engineer.

0:06:580:07:00

I don't know what that means.

0:07:000:07:02

I work for an American gases company, building oxygen plants.

0:07:020:07:08

-How much oxygen was in your head today?

-A little.

0:07:080:07:11

-Just a little? Why Claire?

-Erm...

0:07:110:07:15

I seem to remember her getting two wrong.

0:07:150:07:18

-Do you think she was the weakest link?

-I did.

0:07:180:07:21

So, Anthony,

0:07:210:07:23

-how was it for you?

-Not bad.

0:07:230:07:25

Good start, one wrong at the end.

0:07:250:07:28

You think that's OK?

0:07:280:07:30

It's steady for the first round. Warming up.

0:07:300:07:33

-Where are you from?

-Swansea. Wales.

0:07:330:07:36

-Why Claire?

-She got a couple wrong...

0:07:360:07:39

-One more than you.

-One more,

0:07:390:07:41

including the capital of New Zealand which was an easy question.

0:07:410:07:46

I thought Destiny's Child was easy.

0:07:460:07:49

Well, very few people cottoned on

0:07:490:07:52

to who was actually statistically the worst player.

0:07:520:07:56

Our professional gardener. Sue!

0:07:560:07:58

But it's votes that count. The private tutor.

0:07:590:08:03

If she still is one after they see this programme.

0:08:030:08:07

Claire, with five votes, you are the weakest link.

0:08:070:08:11

Goodbye.

0:08:110:08:13

I am absolutely annoyed. I can't believe I was voted off.

0:08:180:08:22

I wasn't the weakest link. It's just not fair.

0:08:220:08:26

I don't think the team will win that much money.

0:08:260:08:30

They're very "Let's do it MY way," rather than working together.

0:08:300:08:35

Round Two, team.

0:08:360:08:38

So far you have in the kitty...

0:08:380:08:41

She got all her answers right, and banked money.

0:12:090:12:12

Statistically, Anthony is the weakest link. How will voting go?

0:12:120:12:17

Voting over. It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link.

0:12:180:12:23

Richard, what do you do?

0:12:370:12:39

I look after about 21 pubs in the south-east.

0:12:390:12:42

And manage them.

0:12:420:12:45

-Do you feed people?

-Of course, yes. Of course.

0:12:450:12:48

Yet you don't know what a rack of lamb is.

0:12:480:12:51

-I look after town centre ones.

-They don't eat racks of lamb?

0:12:520:12:57

Yes, they probably do but...

0:12:570:13:00

Where's the line between where they eat racks of lamb and where they don't?

0:13:000:13:05

There isn't one. I just... Memory blank.

0:13:050:13:09

Why Anthony?

0:13:090:13:11

Because he was the weakest link.

0:13:110:13:13

I didn't think he answered all of his questions.

0:13:130:13:17

-What do you do?

-Sales manager.

0:13:170:13:20

-What do you sell?

0:13:200:13:25

which, over 50-odd years, has been proven to work without a doubt.

0:13:250:13:30

Have you learnt that off-pat?

0:13:310:13:33

-It just comes naturally.

-It sounds as if you have.

0:13:330:13:37

Why Anthony?

0:13:370:13:39

-Because he screwed up.

-Right.

0:13:390:13:41

Jos.

0:13:410:13:43

-Not born in this country?

-No, I'm Dutch.

0:13:430:13:46

So you don't know much about our songs and traditions.

0:13:460:13:50

Only the very obvious ones.

0:13:500:13:52

That's why Bobby Shaftoe had an egg round his knee.

0:13:520:13:56

-I'd never heard of Bobby Shaftoe.

-Whose fault is that?

0:13:560:14:00

Probably mine.

0:14:000:14:02

-Why Anthony?

-He got two wrong, he didn't look confident,

0:14:020:14:07

and he was the weakest link in that round.

0:14:070:14:10

Anthony, with four votes, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:14:100:14:14

I'm disappointed to be voted off.

0:14:210:14:24

I would have liked to have got more into my flow.

0:14:240:14:27

Next one off is probably Andy.

0:14:270:14:30

He's had a few times when he's been wrong.

0:14:300:14:33

If I hadn't been there, he would be giving this interview now.

0:14:330:14:37

Round Three. You've won...

0:14:390:14:41

..out of a possible £2,000.

Hello, Richard. Why Sue?

Because of the pink jumper.

Really? What's wrong with it?

0:19:070:19:10

It's not pink, for a start.

0:19:100:19:12

-Cerise, then. It's a bit bright for me.

-Is it?

Richard, her hairdo's a whole lot better than yours. So...

0:19:150:19:19

we like the hair and the glasses.

0:19:190:19:21

We all like the top except Richard.

0:19:210:19:24

With five votes, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:19:240:19:27

I feel annoyed about being voted off.

0:19:350:19:38

I've let myself down and others.

0:19:380:19:40

As for Richard not liking my jumper!

0:19:400:19:43

I'd like to see Kevin voted off.

0:19:430:19:45

He's a bit arrogant, he's done this sort of thing before.

0:19:450:19:49

He's clever at quizzes, HE thinks. I hope he doesn't win.

0:23:380:23:44

He was more hesitant than me. I would answer more quickly.

0:23:440:23:48

So, Richard, why Andy?

0:23:490:23:51

Because he got questions wrong.

0:23:510:23:54

And he was the lesser of the team, basically.

0:23:540:23:57

When the vote's tied, the strongest link casts the deciding vote.

0:23:570:24:03

Barry, you voted for Andy. Why did you choose Andy?

0:24:030:24:07

Because in an abysmal round for us all, he did marginally worse.

0:24:190:24:22

You are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:24:220:24:25

Barry annoyed me for voting me off

0:24:310:24:34

but not as much as Jos who was standing next to me

0:24:340:24:38

and voted for me. I thought we were voting together.

Obviously didn't work out and I'm out here.

0:27:360:27:40

0:27:400:27:43

As the only player to get all his answers right,

0:27:440:27:48

Barry is the strongest link again.

0:27:480:27:50

Richard is the weakest link but will the votes reflect the statistics?

0:27:500:27:56

Voting over. It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link.

0:27:570:28:02

Kevin, why Richard?

0:28:120:28:15

The Andy Pandy question stuck out for me, Anne.

0:28:150:28:19

He's not old enough to deal with the range of questions. It's time to go.

0:28:190:28:24

Gillian, why Richard?

I got the Teddy bit.

0:28:530:28:55

My mum would have known it.

0:28:550:28:57

I want Kevin to be voted off next.

0:28:570:29:00

He's full of himself and thinks he's going to win.

0:29:000:29:03

I think it'd be nice for him to go.

0:29:030:29:06

Round Six.

0:29:080:29:10

And of the £5,000 you could have won, you have in your kitty...

0:31:450:31:47

Who hasn't kept up the repayments on their knowledge?

0:31:480:31:53

Time to vote off the weakest link.

0:31:530:31:55

Jos got all of her answers wrong, making her the weakest link.

0:31:570:32:01

Gillian is the strongest link, with all her questions correct.

0:32:010:32:06

Will the team pick up on that?

0:32:060:32:08

Voting over. It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link.

0:32:090:32:14

How's it going for you, Gillian?

0:32:230:32:26

Very well, thank you, Anne.

What's the quality of Essex girls?

We like men.

0:32:380:32:40

So you vote Jos off, or don't you like the Dutch?

0:32:400:32:43

In the last round,

0:32:430:32:45

she hesitated, got a few questions wrong,

0:32:450:32:48

and I felt she was the weakest link.

0:32:480:32:51

Barry, why Jos?

0:32:510:32:53

Because she got a few questions wrong and she voted for me

0:32:530:32:57

in the previous round.

0:32:570:32:59

Kevin,

0:32:590:33:00

don't you like Jos?

0:33:000:33:02

She's very nice, but popular culture questions seem to be her failing.

0:33:020:33:07

And I believe she has a young baby that probably needs her attention.

0:33:070:33:12

That's not even patronising

0:33:120:33:14

or chauvinistic(!)

0:33:140:33:17

Jos, you are the weakest link.

0:33:170:33:20

Goodbye.

0:33:200:33:21

The boys will vote Gillian off, so they're both in the final round.

0:33:270:33:32

It's very petty, but he voted for me.

0:36:020:36:06

Now, in Round Eight, of course,

0:36:060:36:08

you get to treble what you bank,

0:36:080:36:11

so £3,000 is at stake.

0:36:110:36:13

The question is, have you the courage

0:36:140:36:18

to hold on to the player

0:36:180:36:20

0:36:270:36:31

It's time to vote off the weakest link.

0:36:310:36:34

At this crucial point in the game,

0:36:350:36:38

Gillian is the strongest link for the third time.

0:36:380:36:42

Kevin is the weakest link as he gave most wrong answers.

0:36:420:36:46

But who will lose out in this final vote?

0:36:460:36:49

Voting over. Time to reveal who you think is the weakest link.

0:36:500:36:55

Gillian, why Kevin?

His remark about Jos having to go home to her baby, really.

0:37:050:37:10

-What was wrong with that?

-He deserved being voted off.

0:37:100:37:14

0:37:140:37:17

-Barry, why Kevin?

-He was the weakest

0:37:180:37:20

and had a lot of hesitancy.

0:37:200:37:24

OK. Kevin was statistically

0:37:240:37:27

the worst player of the three of you.

0:37:270:37:30

You are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:37:300:37:33

I'm absolutely gutted to get so close.

0:37:400:37:44

I'd like Gillian to win, because she likes men

0:37:440:37:47

and I prefer her pink top to Barry's.

0:37:470:37:50

Round Eight. You've won £2,150 out of a possible £7,000.

0:37:520:37:58

Two of you left. Now, you have 90 seconds.

0:37:580:38:01

But whatever you win in this round will be trebled.

0:38:010:38:06

There is £3,000 at stake.

0:38:060:38:08

We start with the strongest link, Gillian.

0:38:080:38:11

0:39:520:39:55

That means prize money today of £2,300.

0:39:550:39:59

Only one of you can take that money away,

0:40:000:40:03

so now you'll play head to head. I'll ask alternate questions.

0:40:030:40:08

Whoever answers the most correctly wins.

0:40:080:40:11
