Of the nine contestants in today's show, | 0:00:02 | 0:00:05 | |
only one will take home prize money of up to £10,000. | 0:00:05 | 0:00:09 | |
The rest will leave with nothing, | 0:00:09 | 0:00:11 | |
as one by one they are voted off as the weakest link. | 0:00:11 | 0:00:16 | |
Welcome to The Weakest Link. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:31 | |
Any of the nine people in the studio today | 0:00:33 | 0:00:36 | |
could win up to £10,000. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
They don't know each other, | 0:00:39 | 0:00:41 | |
however, if they want the money, they'll have to work as a team | 0:00:41 | 0:00:46 | |
but eight will leave with nothing, | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
as round by round we lose the player voted the weakest link. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:53 | |
Let's meet the team. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:55 | |
I'm Lisa. I'm 38 from Rayleigh and I'm a housewife. | 0:00:56 | 0:01:00 | |
I'm Bill, I'm 63, I'm from Kirkcaldy and I'm a butcher. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:05 | |
I'm Helen, I'm 26, I live in Bedford and I'm a window dresser. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:09 | |
I'm Lesley, 50, from Chester and I'm an office manager. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:14 | |
I'm Niall, I'm 39, from Belfast and I'm a freelance IT consultant. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:19 | |
I'm Phill, 28, from Stratford-upon- Avon and I'm a nightclub manager. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:25 | |
I'm Veronica, I'm 65, I'm from Stoke Mandeville | 0:01:26 | 0:01:30 | |

I'm Cheryl, I'm 20 years old from Suffolk and I'm a geography student. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:37 | |
I'm John, I'm 52, I'm from Cheltenham | 0:01:37 | 0:01:41 | |
and I'm a retired tour operator. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
Now the rules. The aim is to answer enough questions correctly | 0:01:45 | 0:01:50 | |
to reach your £1,000 target within the time limit. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:54 | |
The fastest way is to create a chain of nine correct answers. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:58 | |
Get your question wrong and you break the chain and lose the money. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:03 | |
If you say "bank" before the question is asked, the money is safe, | 0:02:03 | 0:02:09 | |
however, you start a new chain from scratch. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
At the end of the round, only banked money can be taken forward. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:18 | |

Lisa...how's it going for you? | 0:07:11 | 0:07:15 | |
I had a bad start, but I haven't got the answers in front of me. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:20 | |
Did you think you would have? | 0:07:21 | 0:07:23 | |
-Why Veronica? -I realise I got a question wrong, like her, but I thought she was hesitant. | 0:07:25 | 0:07:32 | |
-Did you think she was the weakest link? -I did. -Did you? | 0:07:32 | 0:07:36 | |
But she wasn't. | 0:07:36 | 0:07:38 | |
None of you have noticed that Lisa was the worst player statistically. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:43 | |
But it's votes that count. | 0:07:43 | 0:07:47 | |
Veronica's geography let her down. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:50 | |
With six votes, you ARE the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:07:50 | 0:07:54 | |

-How's it going, Phill? -Not too bad. | 0:13:39 | 0:13:42 | |

-He dithered far too long. -Was he the weakest link? -Probably not. | 0:13:46 | 0:13:51 | |
Statistically...Phill with the two Ls was the worst player but it's votes that count. | 0:13:51 | 0:13:58 | |
Bill the butcher can now gallop off. | 0:13:58 | 0:14:03 | |
With six votes, Bill, you ARE the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:07 | |

Helen, you are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:19:14 | 0:19:18 | |
I'm not surprised I was voted off. I had a terrible round, rubbish. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:30 | |

As the only contestant to answer all questions correctly, | 0:22:42 | 0:22:45 | |
John is the strongest link. | 0:22:45 | 0:22:48 | |
Phill is the weakest link for the second time. | 0:22:48 | 0:22:51 | |
He got all his answers wrong. Will this be spotted by the team? | 0:22:51 | 0:22:55 | |
Voting over. It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:22:56 | 0:23:01 | |
John, the retired tour operator. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:18 | |
-Why Phill? -Because I think he had a bad round, that particular round. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:24 | |
-Niall! -Anne! | 0:23:24 | 0:23:28 | |
With two Ls. You've given Phill four Ls. | 0:23:28 | 0:23:31 | |
Why's that? | 0:23:31 | 0:23:33 | |
Just got carried away. | 0:23:33 | 0:23:35 | |
Why've you voted for Phillll with four Ls? | 0:23:35 | 0:23:39 | |
He had the worst round there. Three wrong answers. | 0:23:39 | 0:23:43 | |
-How do you think you're doing? -Good. | 0:23:43 | 0:23:46 | |
-There's no end to your confidence. -Absolutely not. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:51 | |
Lesley! No ambitions to present Top Of The Pops, then? | 0:23:51 | 0:23:55 | |

-You don't know the difference between Aqua and A-ha. -I do. -Do you? | 0:23:57 | 0:24:03 | |
It seemed A-ha was the only pop group you'd heard of. | 0:24:03 | 0:24:07 | |
-Why Phill? -Because he got three wrong. | 0:24:07 | 0:24:12 | |
-I do believe he was the weakest, even weaker than me. -Just! -Just. | 0:24:12 | 0:24:18 | |
-Or "A-ha" as you might say. -Ah! | 0:24:18 | 0:24:21 | |
Phill with two Ls, or four Ls if you're Niall with two Ls, | 0:24:21 | 0:24:26 | |
with four votes, you are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:24:26 | 0:24:30 | |
I wasn't surprised I was voted off there. I got every question wrong. | 0:24:36 | 0:24:41 | |
It was a fair cop. | 0:24:41 | 0:24:43 | |
My 500 regular customers | 0:24:43 | 0:24:46 | |
will come to the bar to tell me I was the weakest link. | 0:24:46 | 0:24:50 | |
The team as a whole have performed atrociously, I feel. | 0:24:50 | 0:24:54 | |
The banking has gone out the window. All the tactics have disappeared. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:58 | |
It's a dog-eat-dog situation now. | 0:24:58 | 0:25:02 | |
Round five, team. Your total so far is £820. | 0:25:03 | 0:25:07 | |
If you'd stayed awake, it would be 4,000. | 0:25:07 | 0:25:10 | |
Five of you left. You've lost Phill with two Ls. | 0:25:10 | 0:25:15 | |
You have Cheryl, a geography genius who wants to go into television. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:20 | |
We hope she won't be a weathergirl. | 0:25:20 | 0:25:22 | |
She might have trouble with the maps! | 0:25:22 | 0:25:25 | |
Ten seconds off the time. We start with the strongest link John. | 0:25:25 | 0:25:31 | |

Who do you no longer wish to have with you? | 0:28:02 | 0:28:06 | |
One of you is a waste of space. Time to vote off the weakest link. | 0:28:06 | 0:28:11 | |
He was the strongest link, but John is now statistically the weakest. | 0:28:13 | 0:28:18 | |
Lesley is now the strongest link but how will the team vote? | 0:28:18 | 0:28:23 | |
Voting over. Time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:28:25 | 0:28:29 | |
Lesley, why John? | 0:28:40 | 0:28:42 | |
He's been very good in other rounds, but this time he let himself down. | 0:28:42 | 0:28:47 | |
The weakest link, I think. | 0:28:47 | 0:28:50 | |
Cheryl, that geography degree in Leicester. | 0:28:50 | 0:28:54 | |
It hasn't been in vain. You've heard of Hollywood, that's good. | 0:28:56 | 0:29:00 | |
And the capital of southern Ireland you know, don't you? | 0:29:00 | 0:29:05 | |

-Why John? -He was definitely the weakest link there. We did better. | 0:29:09 | 0:29:13 | |
Statistically, John was the weakest. | 0:29:13 | 0:29:17 | |
He thinks Graham Greene wrote a book with a character called Pinky | 0:29:17 | 0:29:22 | |
and the book was called Perky! | 0:29:22 | 0:29:24 | |
With four votes, John, you are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:29:24 | 0:29:27 | |
Being voted off was disappointing. I'd been the strongest link. | 0:29:35 | 0:29:39 | |
I think Cheryl will be here next, | 0:29:39 | 0:29:43 | |
because she answered artichoke instead of anchovy | 0:29:43 | 0:29:46 | |
and she's been a weak player and has slipped through the net and survived. | 0:29:46 | 0:29:51 | |
Round six, and of the £5,000 you could've won, you've banked £1,190. | 0:29:52 | 0:29:57 | |
There are four of you left. We've cut 10 seconds from your time. | 0:29:57 | 0:30:02 | |

Unfortunately. | 0:33:27 | 0:33:29 | |
-Are there many people teaching you at university? -Yes. | 0:33:29 | 0:33:35 | |
Or have they all died of shame? | 0:33:35 | 0:33:37 | |
-So why Lisa? -As Niall said, she definitely got two wrong. | 0:33:37 | 0:33:43 | |
We did quite well otherwise. | 0:33:43 | 0:33:46 | |
With two votes, Lisa, you are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:33:46 | 0:33:51 | |
I came here to win, so I'm very disappointed. | 0:33:57 | 0:34:01 | |
It was tactical. I was the strongest link other rounds. | 0:34:01 | 0:34:04 | |
They wanted me out of the way. | 0:34:04 | 0:34:07 | |
Lesley should've been out. She got more questions wrong | 0:34:07 | 0:34:12 | |
but somehow the others didn't notice. | 0:34:12 | 0:34:15 | |
Round seven, and of the £6,000 you could have won, you've got £1,460. | 0:34:17 | 0:34:22 | |
10 seconds off the clock. We start with the strongest link from the last round Niall. | 0:34:22 | 0:34:29 | |

There's £3,000 to be won. | 0:36:44 | 0:36:47 | |

Niall is again the strongest link. | 0:36:58 | 0:37:01 | |
With the most wrong answers, Cheryl is the weakest link. | 0:37:01 | 0:37:05 | |
At this crucial stage, whose game is over? | 0:37:05 | 0:37:09 | |
Voting over. It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:37:09 | 0:37:14 | |
Niall, why Cheryl? | 0:37:23 | 0:37:26 | |
It was a very tight round, but I felt she was the weakest link. | 0:37:26 | 0:37:30 | |
Lesley, why are you getting rid of the other woman on the team? | 0:37:31 | 0:37:37 | |
If I didn't and got rid of Niall, | 0:37:37 | 0:37:39 | |
who did really well, you'd probably say I had something against men. | 0:37:39 | 0:37:44 | |
Just as well Cheryl's going. | 0:37:44 | 0:37:46 | |
Not much time to learn geography. It's her third year at university. | 0:37:46 | 0:37:52 | |
Cheryl, with two votes, you are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:37:52 | 0:37:57 | |
I'm quite upset I didn't get to the final. It was a bit unfair | 0:38:03 | 0:38:08 | |
of Anne to keep on about my degree. She didn't pick on the others. | 0:38:08 | 0:38:14 | |
Lesley's looking much weaker than Niall, so I think Niall will win. | 0:38:14 | 0:38:19 | |
Round eight and of the £7,000 you could've won, you've got £1,720. | 0:38:20 | 0:38:26 | |

What you win in this round will be trebled and added to your total, | 0:38:31 | 0:38:37 | |
so £3,000 is at stake. We start with the last strongest link, Niall. | 0:38:37 | 0:38:42 | |

I'll ask alternate questions, best of five. | 0:40:35 | 0:40:39 | |

If there's a tie we'll go for sudden death until we have a winner. | 0:40:41 | 0:40:47 | |
So, Lesley and Niall, for £2,260, let's play The Weakest Link. | 0:40:47 | 0:40:52 | |
