18/10/2013 Weakest Link

Nine contestants are preparing for the show,

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

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

Welcome to The Weakest Link.

Any of the nine people in the studio here today could win up to ?10,000.

They don't know each other. However, if they want the money, they'll have to work as a team.

But eight will leave with nothing, as round by round we lose the player voted the weakest link.

Let's meet the team.

My name is Jools, I'm 38,

I'm from Plymouth and I'm a private-hire taxi driver.

I'm Lorna, I'm 25, I'm from Rochdale, and I'm a history teacher.

I'm David, I'm 30, I'm from Bradford, and I'm an electrical engineer.

I'm Gill, I'm 43, from South Wales, and I'm an ambulance technician.

I'm Hazel, I'm 58, from Bournemouth and I'm a bra fitter.

I'm Miles, I'm 29, from Bridlington and I work in a caravan park.

I'm Charlie, I'm 49, from Glasgow.

I'm a volunteer worker for the British Boxing Board of Control.

I'm Sue, I'm 36 years old, I'm from Liverpool, and I'm a staff nurse.

I'm Peter, I'm 25, I'm from Leeds,

and I'm an independent mortgage adviser.

In each round the aim is to get enough questions right

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

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

Get a question wrong, you break the chain and lose the money.

But if you say the word bank before the question is asked, the money is safe.

However, you start a new chain from scratch.

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

In Round One there are three minutes on the clock.

We'll start with the person whose name is first alphabetically.

That's you, Charlie.

Let's play The Weakest Link.

Time's up, I can't complete the question.

You banked ?650 which is actually incredibly disappointing

because at one point you answered 16 questions correctly in a row.

So, who missed you the chance of the target?

Who banked too soon? Who broke the chain?

It's time to vote off the weakest link.

As the only player to get a question wrong, Gill is the weakest link.

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

Jools, what do you do?

It's possible. I'd not thought of that.

What do you do? A mortgage consultant.

It's in their nature. Do you not like caravanners?

The customer is always right.

But do you like caravanners?

The customer is always right. Why Gill?

We had a good chain and she got a question wrong.

Indeed. Gill, with seven votes you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

I'm just so annoyed to be voted off first.

I did deserve it, I got the only question wrong,

but it was the hardest question of all.

I think they may vote Jools off next.

He's so full of himself.

Round Two.

So far, you've won ?650. You're down to eight players.

10 seconds off your time. We start with the strongest link - Jools.

It's time to vote off the weakest link.

For the second round in a row, Jools is the strongest link, answering all his questions right.

Miles is the weakest link, as he gave the most wrong answers.

But who will the team want off?

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

Charlie, what do you do?

I work at the British Boxing Board of Control.

Do you like boxing? Boxing has been my life

Because I was a very, very good boxer. Very clever.

Why Miles?

Miles got two wrong and left me nothing to bank.

Lorna, what do you teach? History.

To what age? 18.

So they get A levels, thanks to you. And GCSEs.

Why Miles? Two wrong questions.

Peter, the independent mortgage adviser, working for an estate agent.

Yes. It doesn't sound independent.

Why Miles?

With two questions wrong he's let the team down.

Miles, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

They'll do badly. I've got a wide range of knowledge, I banked money.

Hazel should go. I struggled to keep a straight face when she said her occupation.

Round Three. Out of a possible ?2,000, you've banked...

Down to seven players.

Another 10 seconds off the time.

We start with the strongest link from Round Two - Jools.

I thought he'd know what 1% of ?5 was.

You are the weakest link. Goodbye.

To get voted off The Weakest Link in the third round makes me livid.

I would like to see Jools going. He voted for me because I'm a danger. Jools next, please.

Round Four, team.

As useful as a raincoat in the Sahara?

Sue is the strongest link

as only she got all her answers right.

Peter remains the weakest link, statistically.

Can he survive another vote?

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

Lorna,

do they have a nickname for you at your school?

No, they don't, Anne. You mean you don't know.

Er, Lanky.

They don't think I'm a bit dim.

Oh! Well, they do now.

Why Peter?

He got two questions wrong.

Hazel, why Peter? The bird droppings affected him.

They have indeed.

Peter, with the very, very shiny shirt, with three votes you are the weakest link.

Goodbye.

I feel a bit hard done by, being voted off in the fourth round.

I wasn't the only person to get two wrong.

I'd like David voted off next.

He also voted for me before, and he is a bit irritating.

Round Five. Out of ?4,000,

Five players. Another 10 seconds off.

We'll start with the strongest link just now.

Statistically, Hazel is the weakest link.

Getting all answers right makes Jools the strongest link.

But will the votes reflect reality?

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

We have a tie, team.

Lorna and David, two votes each.

Staff nurse Sue?

Yes.

Put your board up. Why Lorna? She's a teacher

and she got two wrong.

When the vote's tied the strongest link casts the deciding vote.

That was Jools.

You voted for David. Why?

I didn't feel he was getting any questions right

or helping us to get any money.

Well, you now have a choice between David, or Lorna from Rochdale.

I think...

I'll reiterate David.

Well, interestingly,

the weakest link statistically was our bra expert,

Hazel.

David, it's decided. You are the weakest link.

Goodbye.

I'm upset that I got voted off

Round Six, team.

Jools remains the strongest link.

The statistics show the weakest link is Lorna,

and she gave the most wrong answers.

But who will lose out in the vote?

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

Jools, why Lorna?

For a teacher,

she's not doing very well.

Sue. Yes, Anne.

Why Lorna? She had a poor round.

She got three wrong and we're trying to build up the bank balance. Indeed.

Lorna, who teaches history to 18-year-olds,

and thinks that Canada is a state in America.

Dear, dear. Poor Rochdale.

You are the weakest link. Goodbye.

I feel an idiot, getting voted off now,

but I deserved it because I got all three wrong.

I'd like to see Jools voted off next

because he said he wouldn't want me teaching his children.

Round Seven, team.

You have in the kitty...

By now you could have had ?6,000.

Three left. We're taking 10 seconds off.

We'll start with the strongest link from the last round - Jools.

Let's play The Weakest Link.

Start the clock.

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

The question is, who do you get rid of and hang on to?

It's time to vote off the weakest link.

The statistics show Hazel is the strongest link.

But Jools has gone from being the strongest link in the last round

to the weakest link in this,

as he gave the most incorrect answers.

But will his previous strong performance save him from this final vote?

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

Sue!

Hazel was the strongest link there.

Why vote her off?

I only remembered her getting one right, and not having anything to bank

when it was getting to me.

Jools, statistically,

you were the worst player in that round.

And Hazel was the best.

Why are you voting her off?

At this stage, with the amount we're banking, we could be doing better.

And I don't feel that Hazel is an attribute because of one good round.

I can't argue with that. Statistically, throughout,

Hazel is the weakest of you three,

although in that round she was statistically the strongest.

So, Hazel, with two votes,

you can show us your figure.

And your F cups,

and wobble off.

You are the weakest link. Goodbye.

I feel very deflated. There you are.

They're not my bosom pals.

I would like to see Sue win today

because she is the most intelligent and she does a caring job.

Round Eight. So far,

you've banked...

out of a possible ?7,000.

You're down to two players. You have only 90 seconds,

but whatever you win in this round is trebled, so ?3,000 is up for grabs.

You voted off the strongest link from the last round

so we'll start with the second strongest - Sue.

Disappointing.

But we'll treble it and add it to earlier winnings.

That means...

prize money today is...

But of course, only one of you can take that money home.

You'll play head to head. Alternating questions,

best of five. Whoever answers the most correctly wins.

So, Jools and Sue,

for ?2,180, let's play The Weakest Link.
