0:06:47 > 0:06:52You ask questions of contestants. If they get it right, the money goes into the kitty.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55If you say "Bank" before the question, the money is then safe.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57What's the big aim, collectively?

0:06:57 > 0:07:00To get nine questions correct in a row.

0:07:00 > 0:07:03- Yeah. And therefore... - Therefore, we win £1,000.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08If someone banks too early, Anne.

0:07:08 > 0:07:11Yeah. And what have you got to say for yourself?

0:07:11 > 0:07:13I thought we had more money than we actually had.

0:07:13 > 0:07:18Oh, I see. So when you screw it all up at work,

0:07:18 > 0:07:21do you say, "I thought there was more money in the kitty"?

0:07:21 > 0:07:24I've never screwed it up at work. I don't know.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27- You're just screwing it up here. - We still won £950, Anne.

0:07:39 > 0:07:43- Supposing you'd been watching the performance of this team.- Yes.

0:07:43 > 0:07:49Let me take you through. We're at Anne and there's £950 in the kitty.

0:07:49 > 0:07:52- She answers her question correctly. - Yes, Anne.

0:07:52 > 0:07:56And there's seconds on the clock. What would be best for the next person to do?

0:07:56 > 0:07:58To bank that money.

0:07:58 > 0:08:01How would you regard someone stupid enough not to do that?

0:08:01 > 0:08:07I would regard them as someone paying attention to you and being distracted.

0:08:07 > 0:08:12I see. So you're the sort of person who's never wrong.

0:08:12 > 0:08:17- I wouldn't say that, Anne.- Yeah. So the fact that it only got to £950,

0:08:17 > 0:08:20you were in no way responsible for?

0:08:20 > 0:08:23- I was part of the way responsible. - Only part? Why only part?

0:08:23 > 0:08:26- Cos there were other factors. - So are we all hearing that?

0:08:43 > 0:08:46- Do you know what alliterative means? - Yes.

0:08:46 > 0:08:50So how is it you answered the question about an alliterative name with a fuel pump?

0:08:50 > 0:08:53I said it was fuel pump, yeah.

0:08:53 > 0:08:55Yeah. How did you think about that?

0:08:55 > 0:08:58Er... It was the first word that came into my head.

0:08:58 > 0:09:02- Oh, I see. Is that how they teach you at Leeds?- I panicked a bit.

0:09:02 > 0:09:03What do you do, Elaine?

0:09:03 > 0:09:05I'm a TV extra, Anne.

0:09:05 > 0:09:07Are you? Just non-speaking parts?

0:09:07 > 0:09:13- I occasionally get the odd line. - Do you have to listen to the last person who spoke?

0:09:13 > 0:09:15- Yeah.- So what happened to you today?

0:09:15 > 0:09:18Why do you think you're in the tie?

0:09:18 > 0:09:21I was so busy worrying whether I said "Bank" at the right time or not

0:09:21 > 0:09:24that I wasn't listening to the question properly.

0:09:24 > 0:09:26You thought it was a good idea to bank?

0:09:26 > 0:09:29- I did. - Why did you think that, Elaine?

0:09:29 > 0:09:31Just in case I got it wrong, Anne.

0:09:31 > 0:09:36The fact that at the end of the round, there were 16 correct answers...

0:09:36 > 0:09:38Maybe not such a good choice.

0:09:38 > 0:09:43When the vote's tied, the strongest link has to cast the deciding vote.

0:09:43 > 0:09:47And the strongest link was Anne. What do you do, Anne?

0:09:47 > 0:09:51- I'm retired now. I was a radiographer.- How old are you?- 63.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54Oh. So you're sort of on your way to the departure lounge of life.

0:09:54 > 0:09:56I suppose you could say that.

0:09:56 > 0:10:00- Why have you voted for Sandra? - Cos she banked too early.

0:10:00 > 0:10:03- Having listened to all... - All the evidence.- Yes.

0:10:03 > 0:10:07And the excuses they've all put up, do you want to have another little think?

0:10:07 > 0:10:12Er... I think I'll stick with my decision, thank you, Anne.

0:10:12 > 0:10:15Sandra, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23Hearing what Anne said, I think Pete should have gone off.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26I think he did prevent us getting that £1,000

0:10:26 > 0:10:29and I think I maybe wouldn't have been penalised as much.

0:10:29 > 0:10:32In my defence, I did put the most money in the kitty.

0:10:32 > 0:10:37I hope the winner realises that when they take the money and I will leave with my head held high.

0:10:38 > 0:10:39Round Two.

0:10:39 > 0:10:41In the bank...
