Nine contestants are preparing for the show,

0:00:020:00:05

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

0:00:050:00:08

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

0:00:080:00:15

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.

0:00:330:00:39

They don't know each other.

0:00:390:00:41

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

0:00:410:00:45

But eight will leave with nothing,

0:00:450:00:48

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

0:00:480:00:52

Let's meet the team.

0:00:520:00:54

The rules: the aim is to answer enough questions

0:01:500:01:53

to reach your ?1,000 target within the time limit. The fastest way

0:01:530:01:58

is to create a chain of nine answers.

0:01:580:02:01

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

0:02:010:02:05

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

0:02:050:02:10

However, you start a new chain from scratch.

At the end of the round only banked money can be taken forward.

0:06:400:06:43

Why Georgina? Two questions that were easy

0:06:430:06:46

that I remember she got wrong.

0:07:160:07:18

Why Georgina?

0:07:180:07:19

0:07:250:07:27

Really? What in?

So with a 2:2 in Politics you went into childrenswear, did you?

0:07:410:07:45

Yes, exactly. Yes. Why Georgina?

0:07:450:07:48

I remember that she got more wrong than anybody else, so...

0:07:480:07:53

She did indeed.

0:07:530:07:54

She didn't bring much security to the team. ..Statistically you were the worst player.

0:07:540:08:00

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

0:08:140:08:20

I'd like to see David voted off next.

0:08:220:08:24

I knew the answer to his question.

That's why I think he should go.

0:13:510:13:54

David got in a bit of a muddle.

0:13:540:13:57

He said "pass", not "bank". You are the weakest link. Goodbye.

The name of which member of the crow family sounds identical...

0:17:100:17:15

Time's up and you only banked ?200. Who's a cherry short of a trifle,

0:17:180:17:23

a currant short of a bun?

0:17:230:17:25

Whose pen has very definitely run out of ink? It's time to vote off the weakest link.

0:17:250:17:32

With the most answers wrong, Vernette is the weakest link.

0:17:340:17:38

Statistically, Anton is the strongest link. But how will the votes go?

0:17:380:17:43

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

0:17:440:17:49

Myra, you work for a surgeon? That's correct.

0:18:080:18:11

Do you help with the operations? Certainly not.

0:18:110:18:15

What sort of operations does he do? She, actually. Oh, it's a she?

0:18:150:18:20

What sort of operations? She's an orthopaedic surgeon.

0:18:200:18:24

Do you cook her dinner for her?

0:18:240:18:26

Sometimes. Why can't her husband do it? He works too.

0:18:260:18:30

Why Vernette?

0:18:300:18:32

Bums on seats, I'm afraid.

0:18:320:18:34

Jonathan, what will you study about war?

0:18:340:18:37

Er...how to solve conflicts, that kind of thing.

0:18:370:18:41

Why not watch the BBC news?

0:18:410:18:43

Or Newsnight. They'll tell you those things.

0:18:430:18:46

They will, but it's a journalistic aspect.

0:18:460:18:49

It's not applying real solutions to the situation.

0:18:490:18:53

Who knows the real solutions?

0:18:530:18:55

I'll research and find out.

0:18:550:18:57

Speak to those involved. You'd be fun to sit next to at dinner.

0:18:570:19:01

Why Vernette? She got a few questions wrong.

0:19:010:19:04

She did indeed. She might be able

0:19:040:19:08

to sort out aircraft in the air,

0:19:080:19:11

but she's no good at colloquial sayings like "bums on seats". You are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:19:110:19:18

It was overwhelming to get voted out like that, but they were justified.

0:19:240:19:29

But I'm not the only one to get some wrong.

0:19:290:19:32

Natalie should go off next because she got a question wrong

0:19:320:19:36

which she should have known.

0:19:360:19:38

That's why I got voted off but who said it's fair?

0:19:380:19:41

Round Four. ?870 banked so far

0:19:430:19:45

out of a possible ?3,000.

0:19:450:19:48

0:19:480:19:52

We'll start with the strongest link - that's Anton.

0:22:340:22:40

Who is fast asleep?

0:22:400:22:43

Who is not delivering?

0:22:430:22:45

It's time to vote off the weakest link.

0:22:450:22:49

Statistically, Natalie is the strongest link.

0:22:510:22:55

Anton has gone from being the strongest link to the weakest link,

0:22:550:22:59

as he gave the most incorrect answers.

0:22:590:23:02

Will his previous performance save him from the vote?

0:23:020:23:06

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

0:23:070:23:11

Natalie, where do you live?

0:23:280:23:30

0:23:300:23:36

Why did you study politics?

0:23:360:23:38

I have no idea.

0:23:380:23:40

After the first year I realised it wasn't for me, but I carried on.

0:23:400:23:45

I persevered, just to get a degree.

0:23:450:23:48

To make children's clothes? Yes. Why Stuart?

0:23:480:23:51

Because he passed on the last round

0:23:510:23:54

AND he's voted me off three times in a row.

0:23:540:23:57

It was a mistake for Stuart the undertaker

0:23:570:24:01

to vote for Natalie three times.

0:24:010:24:04

A grave mistake. You are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:24:040:24:08

I am furious to be voted off at this stage. It is an absolute disgrace.

0:24:150:24:20

I should have carried on. I should not have lost for one mistake.

0:24:200:24:24

Jonathan will go next. He's alone on that side of the studio.

0:24:240:24:28

Tactics will prevail and he'll be out.

0:24:280:24:31

Round Five, team. Your total is ?1,120 out of a possible ?4,000. Five of you left.

0:24:330:24:39

Ten seconds off the time. We start with the strongest link - that's Natalie.

0:24:390:24:45

Whose performance is now showing some severe cracks?

0:27:180:27:22

Who's not hitting the right notes? Whose game is up?

0:27:220:27:26

It's time to vote off the weakest link.

0:27:260:27:29

Having survived the previous vote, Anton is now the strongest link.

0:27:310:27:36

He answered every question correctly.

0:27:360:27:39

Steve is the weakest link, but will the votes follow the statistics?

0:27:390:27:44

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

0:27:450:27:50

Myra, are you an honest sort of person? Yes, Anne.

0:28:050:28:09

Do you believe in coincidence? Sometimes.

0:28:090:28:12

Let me tell you something. In the first round you voted for Georgina, in the next round David,

0:28:120:28:19

in the next you voted for Vernette,

0:28:190:28:21

in the next round Stuart and in this round Jonathan. And?

0:28:210:28:27

That is exactly the same as Anton, Natalie and Steve.

0:28:270:28:33

We're voting for the weakest link. No, you're not.

0:28:330:28:36

Only twice out of five have you voted

0:28:360:28:39

for the weakest link. Really?

0:28:390:28:41

So the interesting thing will be

0:28:410:28:44

who you turn on, you four,

0:28:440:28:46

now that you've got rid of everyone from the other side.

0:28:460:28:52

You could waste some time and tell me why you voted for Jonathan.

0:28:520:28:57

I could. But you won't bother. No.

0:28:570:28:59

Steve, you're part of the conspiracy.

0:29:010:29:04

No, I've voted fairly all the way through. Good.

0:29:040:29:07

Except now because I was the weakest link.

0:29:070:29:10

If you're not part of the conspiracy, you'll be off next time.

0:29:100:29:14

I'm afraid that's a chance all four of us have to take. OK.

0:29:140:29:19

Steve, as you pointed out, you were statistically the worst player.

0:29:190:29:24

But, Jonathan, there is a conspiracy, I fear, and you are the victim.

0:29:240:29:29

With four votes you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:29:290:29:32

I'm unhappy after getting booted off. They wasted a lot of potential.

0:29:380:29:43

Myra will go next. She's performed averagely all the way through.

0:29:430:29:48

Round Six, team. So far you've won ?1,220 out of a possible ?5,000.

0:32:180:32:21

You banked ?220,

0:32:210:32:24

but who hasn't made you enough money?

0:32:240:32:27

Time to vote off the weakest link.

0:32:270:32:30

Again, Anton is the strongest link.

0:32:320:32:36

Myra is the weakest link. Can she survive the vote?

0:32:360:32:39

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

0:32:410:32:45

Anton, as part of the conspiracy,

0:32:550:32:58

what have you got to say for yourself?

0:32:580:33:01

It's not a conspiracy. I don't look at what other people are writing.

0:33:010:33:05

I don't know what they're writing. I just write what I think is the weakest link.

0:33:050:33:10

OK, but why Myra?

0:33:100:33:12

Because I think she was the weakest link.

0:33:120:33:15

Are you the leader of the conspiracy? Not at all.

0:33:150:33:20

You're just following the others? No. I write what I feel.

0:33:200:33:23

Why Myra?

0:33:230:33:25

I think she got more questions wrong than anybody else.

0:33:250:33:29

Well, Myra...

0:33:290:33:30

You're now the weakest link and you're going with three votes. Goodbye.

0:33:300:33:35

I knew it was me that was for the chop,

0:33:420:33:45

but I did think Natalie would stick up for me and not vote me off.

0:33:450:33:50

In the next round, I'd love to see her go. There was a conspiracy.

0:33:500:33:55

I thought she'd have kept me there to keep the girls to vote the men off.

0:33:550:34:00

Round Seven.

0:34:010:34:02

You have in the kitty ?1,440. There's three of you left.

0:36:190:36:21

You did rather well without Myra.

0:36:210:36:23

You managed to bank ?510. In Round Eight you get the chance to treble what you bank,

0:36:230:36:30

so there's ?3,000 to be won.

0:36:300:36:34

The question is,

0:36:340:36:35

who are you going to conspire against this time?

0:36:350:36:39

It's time to vote off the weakest link.

0:36:390:36:42

Getting the most answers right, Anton remains the strongest link.

0:36:450:36:49

Steve is the weakest. He gave the fewest correct answers.

0:36:490:36:54

Who will lose out in the final vote?

0:36:540:36:57

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

Natalie, apart from the fact

still has absolutely no idea how to spell your name,

0:37:230:37:26

why are you voting him off?

0:37:260:37:28

He got more wrong than Anton,

0:37:280:37:30

put it that way.

0:37:300:37:32

In that round, he was the worst player.

0:37:320:37:35

He's had the lowest score out of the three of you.

0:37:350:37:39

If I was a corny sort of TV presenter, I'd say, "Going, going, gone."

0:37:390:37:44

Steve, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:37:440:37:46

It's the story of my life.

0:37:530:37:55

I'm always the bridesmaid, never the bride. It hurts.

0:37:550:37:59

Anton will probably win.

0:37:590:38:01

However, Natalie's got the degree.

0:38:010:38:03

Round Eight. Out of a possible ?7,000, you've so far banked...

0:38:030:38:08

Two of you left.

0:38:110:38:15

0:40:040:40:09

That means prize money today of...

0:40:090:40:14

Only one of you can take the money. You'll now conspire against each other and play head to head.

0:40:140:40:21

I'll ask questions, best of five. Whoever gets the most right, wins.

0:40:210:40:26

It's as simple as that.

0:43:580:44:02

but I didn't get there.
