0:29:00 > 0:29:03Who will go on losing you money?
0:29:04 > 0:29:06Time to vote off the weakest link.
0:29:08 > 0:29:12for the second time in the game, Martyn is the strongest link.
0:29:12 > 0:29:15The weakest link, statistically, is Jolene,

0:29:40 > 0:29:43Gorgeous Martyn, why Jolene?
0:29:43 > 0:29:48I think a couple of people got questions wrong in that round but, overall, I think she...
0:29:48 > 0:29:52- Could you help me up the tree so you could come and rescue me? - Help you up it? Yeah.
0:29:52 > 0:29:54- What you doing after the show, Anne? - Nigel, why Jolene?
0:29:54 > 0:30:00I think she's probably been the weakest of the people that are left throughout the rounds.
0:30:00 > 0:30:03Jolene, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.
0:30:10 > 0:30:16If I could predict a winner, I think John might, because I think he's a bit of a dark horse.
0:30:16 > 0:30:22He's been left in the corner on his own and I think he's got something up his sleeve.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27Round Six and you have...
0:30:27 > 0:30:30Another ten seconds off the time.
0:30:30 > 0:30:33We'll start with the strongest link from the last round - Martyn.

0:34:03 > 0:34:05Intensely so.
0:34:05 > 0:34:08- Why Martyn?- Erm, simply because he had an appalling round,
0:34:08 > 0:34:11and he got more than one question wrong.
0:34:11 > 0:34:15Ailsa. Are you jealous of Martyn's wonderful looks?

0:34:19 > 0:34:20and left me nothing to bank.
0:34:20 > 0:34:23Martyn - you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:38:12 > 0:38:14and he meant it should be Anne.
0:38:14 > 0:38:17So I suppose it was a bit of a backhanded compliment, really.
