Of the nine contestants preparing for today's show,

0:00:020:00:05

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

0:00:050:00:09

The rest will leave with nothing as one by one they're voted off as the weakest link.

0:00:090:00:15

Welcome to The Weakest Link.

0:00:290:00:31

Any of the nine people in the studio here today

0:00:330:00:36

could win up to £10,000.

0:00:360:00:38

They don't know each other. However, if they want the money

0:00:390:00:43

they'll have to work as a team. But eight will leave with nothing

0:00:430:00:48

as round by round we lose the player voted the weakest link.

0:00:480:00:53

Let's meet the team.

0:00:530:00:55

I'm Steve. I'm 29. I'm from Barnsley and an army instructor.

0:00:560:01:00

I'm Jo. I'm 30. I'm from Lancaster and a travel agent.

0:01:010:01:05

I'm John. I'm 43, from Glasgow, and I'm a research scientist.

0:01:060:01:10

I'm Vicky. I'm 23. I'm Newport. I'm an accounting technician.

0:01:100:01:14

I'm Anne. I'm 46. I'm from Evesham. I'm a supermarket cashier.

0:01:150:01:20

I'm Leigh. I'm 52. I'm from Derby and I'm a church administrator.

0:01:210:01:26

I'm Ian. I'm 31, from Southampton. I'm a software engineer.

0:01:260:01:30

I'm Sue. I'm 45. I'm from Ipswich. I'm a PE teacher.

0:01:300:01:34

I'm Gareth. I'm 19. I'm from Hertfordshire and a gap-year student.

0:01:340:01:39

Now, the rules. In each round,

0:01:410:01:43

the aim is to answer enough questions

0:01:430:01:46

to reach your £1,000 target within the time limit.

0:01:460:01:50

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

0:01:500:01:54

Get a question wrong, you lose the money in the chain.

0:01:540:01:58

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

0:01:580:02:03

You start a new chain. At the end of the round

0:02:030:02:07

only banked money can be taken forward.

0:02:070:02:11

Round One. Three minutes on the clock.

The strongest link in an impressive round is Steve.

0:05:530:05:57

The statistics reveal Vicky is the weakest link.

0:05:570:06:00

Will the team notice?

0:06:000:06:02

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

0:06:030:06:08

And...

0:06:450:06:47

0:06:470:06:50

0:06:500:06:51

Let's hope one of them will have you.

0:06:510:06:53

Why Sue?

0:06:530:06:55

I distinctly recall one time when I couldn't bank cos she got one wrong.

0:06:550:07:00

-Good at distinctly recalling, Gareth?

-I try.

0:07:000:07:04

-John, what do you do?

-I'm a research scientist.

0:07:040:07:07

Viv Richards is a footballer?

0:07:070:07:09

-I'm not very good in cricket, that's the problem.

-Why Sue?

0:07:090:07:14

She got an easy question on TV wrong.

0:07:170:07:20

-Did you think she was the weakest link?

-I did, yes.

0:07:200:07:24

-How is it going for you, Jo?

-Fine, Anne.

0:07:240:07:27

-Why Sue?

-It was a choice between Sue or Vicky,

0:07:410:07:44

who also got a question wrong and I had to choose.

0:07:440:07:48

Interestingly, statistically,

0:07:480:07:51

Vicky was the worst player

0:07:510:07:53

but it's votes that count and you decided that it's Sue, the PE teacher.

0:07:530:07:58

You are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:07:580:08:01

I'm very disappointed that I was voted off.

0:08:060:08:09

I was not the weakest link so I've got some self-esteem left.

0:08:090:08:14

There is a good chance that Vicky will be off next.

0:08:140:08:17

I think her general knowledge is not too good.

0:08:170:08:20

Round Two, team, and so far you have reached and banked your target.

-Why Jo?

0:12:520:12:54

She had a bad first round and was definitely the weakest link. All three wrong.

0:12:550:13:01

-How was it for you?

-Could have been worse.

0:13:010:13:04

-How much worse could it have been?

Why Jo?

0:13:160:13:18

Jo had every question in that round wrong.

0:13:180:13:21

I assumed since she had them all wrong that she was the worst player so I voted for her.

0:13:210:13:28

Statistically, Jo was the worst player.

0:13:280:13:31

A travel agent who made a wasted journey.

0:13:310:13:34

You are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:13:340:13:37

I accept that I should have been voted off.

0:13:420:13:45

I am very upset about the questions that I got.

0:13:450:13:49

I am intelligent. I could have gone far

0:13:490:13:51

but the questions didn't fall for me and I am annoyed.

0:13:510:13:55

Round Three, and you've got...

0:13:570:13:59

Seven left. Another ten seconds comes off the time.

0:14:020:14:06

0:16:450:16:47

In pop music, Shanks & Bigfoot had a UK No.1 single in 1999 with Sweet Like what?

0:16:470:16:53

The correct answer, which I don't think was on the tip of your tongue, was Chocolate.

0:16:560:17:02

You banked £450, which is very tragic as you answered nine questions in a row.

0:17:020:17:08

The question is, which duffer should suffer?

0:17:100:17:13

Time to vote off the weakest link.

0:17:130:17:15

The statistic reveal that Leigh is the strongest link. The weakest link is John.

0:17:180:17:24

What will matter when they cast their vote?

0:17:240:17:27

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

0:17:280:17:32

Leigh.

0:17:440:17:46

-What do you do?

-A church administrator.

0:17:460:17:49

Have you always been one?

0:17:490:17:51

I haven't. I was a teacher until two years ago.

0:17:510:17:54

Were you no good at that?

0:17:540:17:56

-I got fed up with the kids, Anne, to be honest.

-That's not very holy!

0:17:560:18:01

Not really, no.

0:18:010:18:02

No good with children?

0:18:020:18:04

As I got older, the age gap got too big between me and them. I wasn't on their wavelength.

0:18:040:18:10

Not on John's wavelength?

0:18:100:18:12

Difficult to call. I think one or two people got one wrong.

0:18:120:18:16

But John seemed to hesitate the most.

0:18:160:18:19

-That's why I chose him.

-I don't suppose holy people like scientists.

0:18:190:18:24

No, I like scientists as well as anybody else.

0:18:250:18:29

You don't like children, though.

0:18:290:18:32

I like my own.

0:18:320:18:34

That's a bit of a blessing.

0:18:340:18:36

Ian, who do you like?

0:18:370:18:39

Who do I like? Saints Football Club.

0:18:390:18:41

Oh, you're a boring sort of person, then.

0:18:410:18:44

I guess you could say that.

0:18:440:18:46

Do most people think you're boring?

0:18:460:18:49

Most who haven't met me.

0:18:490:18:51

After they've met you do they think you're VERY boring?

0:18:510:18:55

-More boring. Absolutely.

-Why John?

0:18:550:18:57

I think it was the big hesitation before answering the question on monarchy.

0:18:570:19:03

So, Anne, who spells her name properly, you're a cashier.

0:19:030:19:07

What's the most irritating thing about customers at the checkout?

0:19:070:19:12

When they cough in your face. That has its moments.

0:19:120:19:16

Does it? Do you have your moments?

0:19:160:19:18

Oh, yes, I have my moments.

0:19:180:19:20

-What do you do in your spare time?

-I write.

0:19:200:19:23

Do you? What do you write?

0:19:230:19:25

-I have written a novel.

-A novel? Your first novel?

0:19:250:19:29

I wrote three, to get into Mills & Boon. They got turned down.

0:19:290:19:33

Your fourth novel and none published?

0:19:330:19:36

Alas, agents haven't discovered my genius yet.

0:19:360:19:40

Well, we'll see if we can. Why John?

0:19:400:19:42

Why John? Some of his answers have been right off the planet.

0:19:420:19:47

Statistically, John was worst. With five votes you are the weakest link.

0:19:480:19:53

Maybe Olivier isn't big in Scotland. Goodbye.

0:19:530:19:56

I feel disappointed being voted off after the third round.

0:20:030:20:07

I did well in the second.

0:20:070:20:09

I'd like to see Steve voted off next

0:20:090:20:12

because he does have a tendency to give silly answers to the mathematical questions.

0:20:120:20:18

Round Four. £1,750 banked out of potential prize money of £3,000.

0:20:200:20:25

Six of you left. We are taking another ten seconds off.

0:20:250:20:30

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

In pop music, the 1984 hit single by The Toy Dolls,

Nellie the Elephant -

0:23:030:23:05

Circus!

0:23:050:23:06

STEVE: Bank!

0:23:060:23:08

Circus was the correct answer.

0:23:110:23:13

It was in time.

0:23:140:23:16

In that round,

0:23:160:23:18

you banked a miserable...

0:23:180:23:21

small, teeny...

0:23:210:23:23

0:23:230:23:25

£150.

0:23:260:23:28

Who is as much use as a kite with no string?

0:23:280:23:32

It's time to vote off the weakest link.

0:23:320:23:34

In a reversal of fortune, Leigh has gone from being strongest to weakest link.

0:23:370:23:42

Alone in answering all her questions correctly, Anne is the strongest.

0:23:420:23:47

Who will the team want off?

0:23:470:23:49

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

0:23:500:23:55

Gareth.

0:24:070:24:09

-Why Leigh?

-I think he got all his questions wrong.

0:24:090:24:13

Having been the strongest link, he had a bit of a disastrous round.

0:24:130:24:18

-You've hardly been a shining example.

-I appreciate that.

0:24:180:24:23

So, Steve, the timid staff sergeant, why Leigh?

0:24:230:24:27

He just went to pieces. He had been the strongest link for two rounds then four out of four wrong.

0:24:270:24:33

God didn't answer your prayers. With five votes, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:24:330:24:39

It was a fair vote. I was the weakest link.

0:24:470:24:50

I feel disappointed. My game fell to pieces.

0:24:500:24:54

In my opinion, I think Vicky will go next.

0:24:540:24:56

She's done quite well but she's hung on for a few rounds

0:24:560:25:00

by the skin of her teeth.

0:25:000:25:02

Her lack of knowledge in certain areas will be her downfall in this round.

0:25:020:25:07

Round Five. Out of a possible £4,000, you have put in the kitty so far...

0:25:090:25:14

Five left. Another ten seconds off the time.

0:25:170:25:20

Who has brought an empty bottle to the party?

0:27:550:27:58

0:27:580:28:00

Time to vote off the weakest link.

0:28:010:28:03

For the second round in a row, Anne is strongest link.

0:28:050:28:09

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

0:28:090:28:14

Will the other players realise?

0:28:140:28:16

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

0:28:170:28:22

So, Anne,

The...big one, the one I am trying to market at the moment,

0:28:400:28:45

is about what happens when a twin dies.

0:28:450:28:48

It's a cheery little number about love and death and self-discovery.

0:28:480:28:53

Oh...

0:28:530:28:54

Why Ian?

0:28:540:28:55

I think he should have known what a J.P. was.

0:28:550:28:58

-Gareth, have you never heard of a milliner?

-I have now.

0:29:000:29:04

-I hadn't beforehand.

-We're not here to teach you.

0:29:040:29:07

Why Ian?

0:29:070:29:09

I think he fell to pieces.

0:29:090:29:10

He was doing very well before but then it didn't happen.

0:29:100:29:14

Ian, who says that when people meet him they find him boring.

0:29:140:29:20

Once they know him find him more boring.

0:29:200:29:22

With three votes you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:29:220:29:26

Being voted off this round, I feel aggrieved.

0:29:330:29:36

I thought I was doing well. That round was a shambles.

0:29:360:29:40

I think I'd like to see Anne off next.

0:29:400:29:42

She seems a little sure of herself and is very cocky.

0:29:420:29:46

Round Six, and you have in the kitty...

0:29:480:29:51

Four left. Another ten seconds off.

0:29:520:29:55

Who deserves a degree in wrong answers?

0:32:280:32:31

It's time to vote off the weakest link.

0:32:310:32:34

Steve is the strongest link. He answered the most questions correctly.

0:32:360:32:41

Gareth is the weakest link. Will the voting reflect reality?

0:32:410:32:45

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

0:32:460:32:51

Steve.

0:33:020:33:03

-Ma'am?

-Will you still be a staff sergeant when you get back?

0:33:030:33:07

I don't think they can bust me for this.

0:33:070:33:10

They'll be tempted to, though.

0:33:100:33:12

-Maybe.

-Why Vicky?

0:33:120:33:14

She got the most wrong there. The only one she got right was the last.

0:33:140:33:19

I'd forgotten you can't count.

0:33:190:33:21

Gareth.

0:33:230:33:24

-Why Vicky?

-I think, after me, she was the next worst player.

0:33:240:33:29

What makes you think that, Gareth?

0:33:290:33:32

-I did quite atrociously in that round.

-Exactly.

0:33:320:33:36

Who did the worst statistically?

0:33:360:33:38

-I think it's me.

-Good, you've got that right.

0:33:380:33:42

Statistically, Gareth was the worst but it's votes that count.

0:33:420:33:46

Vicky from Wales.

0:33:460:33:48

With two votes you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:33:480:33:52

I don't think the men wanted to vote against each other.

0:33:590:34:02

They had to vote for a woman and being weaker, they chose me.

0:34:020:34:07

Round Seven. Out of a possible £6,000, you've got...

0:34:080:34:12

Three left. Ten seconds off.

0:34:130:34:16

We start with the strongest link. Steve.
