only one will take home prize money | 0:00:05 | 0:00:07 | |
of up to £10,000. | 0:00:07 | 0:00:09 | |
The rest will leave with nothing | 0:00:09 | 0:00:11 | |
after their team mates vote them 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 | 0:00:38 | |
They don't know each other. | 0:00:38 | 0:00:40 | |
However, if they want the prize money | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
they'll have to work as a team. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:45 | |
But, eight of them will leave with nothing | 0:00:45 | 0:00:48 | |
as round by round we lose the player voted the weakest link. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:52 | |
Let's meet the team. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
I'm Cath. I'm 36. I'm unemployed and I'm from Middlesbrough. | 0:00:56 | 0:01:00 | |
My name is Dennis. I'm 67. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:02 | |

Now, the rules. In each round the aim is | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
to answer enough questions to reach £1,000 | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
within the time limit. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
The best way is to create a chain of nine answers. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
Get your question wrong and you break the chain | 0:01:57 | 0:02:01 | |
and lose all the money in that chain. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:04 | |
But if you bank first | 0:02:04 | 0:02:06 | |
the money is safe. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
However, you start a new chain. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
At the end of the round, | 0:02:12 | 0:02:13 | |
only money that has been banked | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
can be taken forward. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:18 | |

I'm a technical sales rep, selling chemicals. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:27 | |
Do you have to add anything up? | 0:12:27 | 0:12:29 | |
I have my computer to do that for me. | 0:12:31 | 0:12:34 | |
Why Dennis? | 0:12:34 | 0:12:35 | |
He lost a lot of time with one of the questions | 0:12:35 | 0:12:39 | |
and he was breaking the chain too often. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:42 | |
We couldn't add the money up. | 0:12:42 | 0:12:45 | |
Cath, why Dennis? | 0:12:45 | 0:12:46 | |
I remembered him getting the most wrong and taking time. | 0:12:46 | 0:12:50 | |
You thought he was the weakest link. | 0:12:50 | 0:12:53 | |
Possibly. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:55 | |
Of course he wasn't, was he, Iris? | 0:12:55 | 0:12:57 | |
-No. -Who was the weakest link? | 0:12:57 | 0:12:59 | |
Probably me. | 0:12:59 | 0:13:01 | |
Yes. But they didn't notice or not enough of them. | 0:13:01 | 0:13:05 | |
The only one who did was Dennis. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:07 | |
Dennis, I don't want to rush you | 0:13:07 | 0:13:09 | |
but after I've finished speaking to you you have to go quickly. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:13 | |
-Do you understand that? -Just about. | 0:13:13 | 0:13:16 | |
You are the weakest link, goodbye. | 0:13:16 | 0:13:19 | |
I'm very disappointed to be voted off this early | 0:13:23 | 0:13:27 | |
because I clearly wasn't the weakest link. | 0:13:27 | 0:13:30 | |

She answered all her questions right. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:11 | |

In actual fact, in the voting, | 0:18:45 | 0:18:48 | |
I was the only one who voted for the weakest link. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:51 | |

Voting over. Time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:23 | |
Peter... Had enough of Cath? | 0:22:39 | 0:22:42 | |
She did very well at first. | 0:22:42 | 0:22:44 | |
But last time she had some disastrous questions. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:48 | |
The questions were fine, I think there were some disastrous answers. | 0:22:49 | 0:22:55 | |
Manoj, why do you want to get rid of Cath? | 0:22:55 | 0:22:58 | |

That round I was horribly unlucky. | 0:23:20 | 0:23:23 | |
I didn't get one that I knew. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:25 | |
When I guessed, I guessed wrong. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:27 | |
Manoj or Edwin will go next. | 0:23:27 | 0:23:29 | |
They've not had great rounds till now. | 0:23:29 | 0:23:32 | |

She got all her questions right. | 0:26:38 | 0:26:40 | |
Statistically, Jane is the weakest link. | 0:26:40 | 0:26:44 | |
Do the other players realise this? | 0:26:44 | 0:26:46 | |
Voting over. Time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:26:47 | 0:26:52 | |
We have a tie. | 0:27:03 | 0:27:05 | |
Edwin and Manoj two votes each. | 0:27:05 | 0:27:09 | |
Manoj... Why Edwin? | 0:27:09 | 0:27:11 | |
-I couldn't vote for myself. -You think he was the weakest link? | 0:27:12 | 0:27:17 | |
-Hello? -No, not at all. | 0:27:19 | 0:27:21 | |
-You didn't think he was the weakest link? -I don't think so. | 0:27:21 | 0:27:25 | |
So why did you vote for him? | 0:27:25 | 0:27:28 | |
I couldn't vote for myself. | 0:27:28 | 0:27:30 | |
Assuming you were the weakest link, and you weren't, | 0:27:32 | 0:27:36 | |
did you think he was the second-weakest link? | 0:27:36 | 0:27:39 | |
Yes. | 0:27:39 | 0:27:41 | |
We're not rushing you, are we? | 0:27:41 | 0:27:44 | |
No, not at all. | 0:27:44 | 0:27:46 | |

Try again. | 0:27:51 | 0:27:53 | |
I can't believe it's me. | 0:27:54 | 0:27:56 | |
Barbara... | 0:27:56 | 0:27:58 | |
-Why Manoj? -Obviously I thought he was the weakest link in that round. | 0:27:58 | 0:28:03 | |
I think Peter was pushing a close second. | 0:28:05 | 0:28:08 | |
When the vote is tied, | 0:28:08 | 0:28:10 | |
the strongest link casts the deciding vote. | 0:28:10 | 0:28:14 | |
You could vote for Manoj... | 0:28:15 | 0:28:17 | |
who got two questions wrong and banked £20. | 0:28:18 | 0:28:21 | |
Or Edwin who got two questions wrong and banked £200. | 0:28:22 | 0:28:26 | |
You can't vote for the weakest link. Though she can't believe it, | 0:28:27 | 0:28:32 | |
that was Jane. | 0:28:32 | 0:28:34 | |
Who would you like to get rid of? | 0:28:34 | 0:28:36 | |
Seeing as Edwin's earning the money, I'll stick with my choice. | 0:28:36 | 0:28:41 | |
Manoj, you are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:28:43 | 0:28:46 | |
Barbara made absolutely the right choice. | 0:28:51 | 0:28:54 | |
By that stage I was starting to get very nervy. | 0:28:54 | 0:28:58 | |
I simply couldn't answer the questions for nerves. | 0:28:58 | 0:29:02 | |
You have to be there to know what it's like | 0:29:02 | 0:29:05 | |
and the sort of pressure you find yourself under. | 0:29:05 | 0:29:08 | |

Peter, | 0:32:25 | 0:32:27 | |

-Why Jane? -She's done very well up to now, | 0:32:41 | 0:32:45 | |

to assist the winner | 0:36:18 | 0:36:22 | |
in taking away the maximum amount of money. | 0:36:22 | 0:36:25 | |
Time to vote off the weakest link. | 0:36:25 | 0:36:28 | |
Barbara is strongest once again. | 0:36:30 | 0:36:32 | |
Peter has gone from strongest link to weakest link. | 0:36:32 | 0:36:36 | |
But who will lose out at this crucial stage? | 0:36:36 | 0:36:39 | |
Voting over, it's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:36:41 | 0:36:46 | |
Well, well. Barbara, | 0:36:53 | 0:36:56 | |

I knew the choice would come down to Barbara. | 0:37:25 | 0:37:29 | |
He had a worse round than me. | 0:37:29 | 0:37:31 | |
So, I was going to go for him. Try and keep myself in. | 0:37:31 | 0:37:35 | |
Well, Peter, in fact you WERE the weakest link in that last round. | 0:37:36 | 0:37:41 | |
Whether that's why Barbara voted you off is another matter. | 0:37:42 | 0:37:46 | |
You are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:37:46 | 0:37:48 | |
Edwin did vote tactically. | 0:37:54 | 0:37:56 | |
And I think that's fair enough. | 0:37:56 | 0:37:59 | |
He's very lucky to have got so far. I don't blame him at all. | 0:37:59 | 0:38:03 | |
He's going to be a teacher, God help him! | 0:38:03 | 0:38:06 | |
