Here are the nine contestants on today's show. | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
One will take home prize money of up to £10,000. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
The rest of the team wins nothing, | 0:00:07 | 0:00:09 | |
as, one by one, they're voted off as the weakest link. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:14 | |
Welcome to The Weakest Link. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:30 | |
Any of the nine people in the studio here today could win up to £10,000. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:39 | |
They don't know each other but if they want the prize money, | 0:00:39 | 0:00:43 | |
they'll have to work as a team. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:45 | |
But eight of them will leave with nothing, | 0:00:45 | 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 | |
My name is Graham. I'm 44. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
I come from Bath and I'm a payroll manager. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
I'm Louise. I'm 34. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:05 | |

The aim is to answer enough questions correctly | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
to reach your £1,000 target within the time limit. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:56 | |
The fastest way is to create a chain of nine correct answers. | 0:01:56 | 0:02:00 | |
Get your question wrong and you lose all the money. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:04 | |
But if you say "bank" before the question, the money is safe. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:08 | |
However, you start a new chain from scratch. Remember, team, | 0:02:08 | 0:02:12 | |
only money that has been banked can be carried forward. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:16 | |
In Round One, you have three minutes. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
We start with the person whose name is first alphabetically. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:24 | |

Time's up. The correct answer is Pre-Raphaelite. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:38 | |
And that was fantastically terrible. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:42 | |
Out of the £1,000 you could have won, you banked a mere £50. | 0:05:44 | 0:05:48 | |

Statistically, the strongest link is Nigel. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:07 | |
The weakest link is Louise. | 0:06:07 | 0:06:09 | |
Will the team realise that? | 0:06:09 | 0:06:11 | |
It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:16 | |
-Nigel, where do you come from? -Ormskirk. | 0:06:33 | 0:06:36 | |

-What sort of money do you deal in? -Large amounts. Millions. | 0:06:56 | 0:07:01 | |
Why Jessamy? | 0:07:01 | 0:07:02 | |
She got her questions wrong and she had the chance to bank and didn't. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:07 | |
How's it going, Sharon? | 0:07:07 | 0:07:10 | |
-Not too bad. -What do you do? | 0:07:10 | 0:07:12 | |
I'm a housewife and part-time insurance underwriter. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:16 | |
Where do you do that? | 0:07:16 | 0:07:18 | |
In Northamptonshire. | 0:07:18 | 0:07:20 | |
-You've never done business in Kent? -No, not in Kent. | 0:07:20 | 0:07:24 | |
-What's your geography like? -Usually better than that. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:28 | |
Why Jessamy? | 0:07:28 | 0:07:30 | |
I heard the Quasimodo question and I thought she'd know that one. | 0:07:30 | 0:07:35 | |
So, Louise, | 0:07:39 | 0:07:40 | |
hardly anyone noticed, did they? | 0:07:40 | 0:07:42 | |
Master of disguise. | 0:07:42 | 0:07:44 | |
You were the worst player, weren't you? | 0:07:44 | 0:07:47 | |
I didn't think I was the worst. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:51 | |
I'm telling you. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:52 | |
I'm surprised. I thought I wasn't too bad. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:55 | |
You thought Schindler's first name was Michael? | 0:07:55 | 0:07:59 | |
That was unfortunate. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:01 | |
I've seen the film, | 0:08:01 | 0:08:03 | |
-and couldn't grapple his name from my mind, unfortunately. -OK. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:10 | |
-Why Jessamy? -I felt she got more wrong than I did | 0:08:10 | 0:08:13 | |
and she sort of dallied on some of her answers, as well. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:17 | |
Well, she got the same amount wrong as you did, actually. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:21 | |
You were the worst player, statistically. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:25 | |
But, Jessamy, the musician, | 0:08:25 | 0:08:27 | |
you're out of tune. You are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:32 | |
I feel devastated about being voted off. | 0:08:39 | 0:08:41 | |
Just incredibly humiliated. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:44 | |
Louise will probably be voted off next | 0:08:44 | 0:08:47 | |
as she was the weakest link in the first round. | 0:08:47 | 0:08:51 | |
Round Two, team. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:54 | |
£50 is all you've got in the kitty. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:56 | |
You could have had £1,000. | 0:08:57 | 0:08:59 | |
Eight of you left. We'll take 10 seconds off the clock | 0:08:59 | 0:09:03 | |
We'll start with the strongest link. That's Nigel. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:07 | |

£240 in the kitty. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:13 | |
Whose brain has left the building? Time to vote off the weakest link. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:18 | |
With the most correct answers, Sharon is the strongest link. | 0:12:20 | 0:12:25 | |
Statistically, Karen is the weakest link. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:28 | |
What will the other players take into consideration as they vote? | 0:12:28 | 0:12:33 | |
It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:37 | |
Nigel, from Ormskirk near Liverpool. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:56 | |
Did you go to school in Ormskirk? | 0:12:56 | 0:12:58 | |
I did. | 0:12:58 | 0:12:59 | |
Did you watch TV? | 0:12:59 | 0:13:01 | |
I watched quite a bit, but not the Alexei Sayle show. | 0:13:01 | 0:13:05 | |
And you think that a skinhead who had a series in the '80s and '90s | 0:13:05 | 0:13:10 | |
and came from Liverpool is Lily Savage? | 0:13:10 | 0:13:13 | |
I thought he shaved his head and put his wig on his bald head. | 0:13:13 | 0:13:17 | |
Graham, | 0:13:19 | 0:13:20 | |
-you're in charge of payroll, are you? -That's right. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:24 | |
How many wage packets do you have? | 0:13:24 | 0:13:27 | |
Nobody's paid in cash. It all goes down the telephone line. | 0:13:27 | 0:13:32 | |
-Do you wear that shirt to work? -No. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:36 | |
Good. Why Karen? | 0:13:36 | 0:13:39 | |
She got a few questions wrong. | 0:13:39 | 0:13:41 | |
Still here, Louise? | 0:13:41 | 0:13:43 | |
I had a good round, Anne. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:45 | |
-You come from York, do you? -I do. -Were you brought up in York? | 0:13:45 | 0:13:49 | |
I went to school in Moulton then got my first job in York. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:53 | |
-You've got a job? -Yes. -What do you do? | 0:13:53 | 0:13:56 | |
-I work in customer services. -Oh, do you? | 0:13:56 | 0:13:58 | |
What does that involve? | 0:13:58 | 0:14:00 | |
Helping customers and sorting problems out. | 0:14:00 | 0:14:03 | |
It'll be the first time. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:05 | |
Why Karen? | 0:14:05 | 0:14:06 | |
It was unfortunate. She got a few questions wrong so she had to go. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:11 | |
Right. | 0:14:11 | 0:14:13 | |
Karen, statistically, you were the worst player. | 0:14:13 | 0:14:16 | |
You are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:14:16 | 0:14:19 | |
I'm really disappointed I've been voted off second. | 0:14:24 | 0:14:28 | |
It's better than being voted off first but I wanted to do better. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:32 | |
I think Shelley might be voted off next, | 0:14:32 | 0:14:35 | |
because she received votes in both rounds | 0:14:35 | 0:14:39 | |
and the maths question she got wrong sticks in my head. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:43 | |
Round Three. You've won £290 out of a possible £2,000. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:48 | |

Time is up. £120 in the kitty. | 0:17:44 | 0:17:48 | |
Whose hopes of winning should now be dashed? | 0:17:48 | 0:17:51 | |
Whose day is done? Time to vote off the weakest link. | 0:17:51 | 0:17:55 | |
Statistically, Tristram is the weakest link, | 0:17:56 | 0:18:00 | |
while Nigel is the strongest link. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:03 | |
But how will the votes go? | 0:18:03 | 0:18:05 | |
It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:18:06 | 0:18:10 | |
We have a tie, team. | 0:18:23 | 0:18:25 | |
Tristram and Louise, three votes each. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:30 | |
Shelley, you're a nurse. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:32 | |
-Yes, Anne. I am. -Where do you nurse? | 0:18:32 | 0:18:35 | |
On a gynaecology ward. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:37 | |
Is it an NHS hospital or a private hospital? | 0:18:37 | 0:18:40 | |
It's an NHS hospital. | 0:18:40 | 0:18:42 | |
Why Louise? | 0:18:42 | 0:18:44 | |
She didn't know Queen Victoria reigned longest. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:48 | |
Hello, Tristram. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:49 | |
-Greetings. -What do you do? | 0:18:49 | 0:18:51 | |
-I work in Audit Control. -Where do you do that? | 0:18:51 | 0:18:55 | |
Just round the corner from where I live, in Bedfont. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:58 | |
-In where? -Bedfont. | 0:18:58 | 0:19:00 | |

-Good restaurants there? -Not bad. Not too bad. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:06 | |
-Good fish and chip shops? -Um... Yeah, I think so. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:12 | |
They sell filet mignon? | 0:19:12 | 0:19:15 | |
I haven't tried it so I wouldn't know. Sorry. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:18 | |
Did it not occur to you that a question which asked which MEAT | 0:19:18 | 0:19:22 | |
would not have the answer "fish"? | 0:19:22 | 0:19:25 | |
Afterwards, yes. But that's no good. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:28 | |
Why Louise? | 0:19:28 | 0:19:29 | |
I recall Louise having a few bad rounds previous to this one | 0:19:29 | 0:19:34 | |
and with the Victoria question, I thought she should have known that. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:40 | |
Graham, why Tristram? | 0:19:40 | 0:19:43 | |
I thought he had a bad round there, Anne. | 0:19:43 | 0:19:45 | |
Louise. | 0:19:48 | 0:19:49 | |
-Yes. -Why Tristram? | 0:19:49 | 0:19:51 | |
It was the meat question that did it for me. | 0:19:51 | 0:19:54 | |
Not the Queen Victoria question? | 0:19:54 | 0:19:57 | |
No, I thought meat was worse. | 0:19:57 | 0:19:59 | |
When the vote's tied, the strongest link has to decide. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:05 | |
Nigel, who would you like to get rid of? Tristram or Louise? | 0:20:05 | 0:20:10 | |
-Tristram. -Why? | 0:20:10 | 0:20:13 | |
Because he got a couple of questions wrong. | 0:20:13 | 0:20:16 | |
I think meat and fish was the most basic question. | 0:20:16 | 0:20:20 | |
Oh, and also, he voted for me last time. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:23 | |
Tristram, you are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:29 | |
I don't think Nigel made the right decision. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:37 | |
Could be tactical, trying to keep a weaker link in the game | 0:20:37 | 0:20:41 | |
until one of the later rounds. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:44 | |
Louise will be voted off next. She's lasted this long by chance. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:48 | |
And it's evident that she's going to be next. Definitely. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:54 | |

Whose pub has now very definitely run out of beer? | 0:23:52 | 0:23:56 | |
Time to vote off the weakest link. | 0:23:57 | 0:23:59 | |
Nigel is the weakest link because he gave the most wrong answers. | 0:24:02 | 0:24:06 | |
Shelley is the strongest link | 0:24:07 | 0:24:10 | |
but will the votes reflect the statistics? | 0:24:10 | 0:24:13 | |
It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:17 | |
Shelley, the NHS nurse, | 0:24:31 | 0:24:33 | |

So obviously had to go. | 0:25:07 | 0:25:10 | |

In the last round, I didn't do particularly well. | 0:25:20 | 0:25:22 | |
I was the strongest link in two rounds. | 0:25:22 | 0:25:25 | |
I think they saw me as a threat. | 0:25:25 | 0:25:27 | |
I haven't got a popular profession, so they voted me off. | 0:25:27 | 0:25:30 | |
I hope Shelley gets voted off next | 0:25:30 | 0:25:33 | |
because she's got lots of questions wrong. | 0:25:33 | 0:25:36 | |
She voted for me twice and I hope she goes off next. | 0:25:36 | 0:25:40 | |

You banked £170. | 0:28:24 | 0:28:25 | |

One of you is about to leave with nothing. | 0:28:30 | 0:28:33 | |
Time to vote off the weakest link. | 0:28:33 | 0:28:36 | |
For the second time, Sharon is the strongest link. | 0:28:38 | 0:28:41 | |
Shelley is now the weakest link, but will the voting reflect reality? | 0:28:41 | 0:28:46 | |
It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:28:48 | 0:28:52 | |
Mark, why Louise? | 0:29:05 | 0:29:06 | |
I think the worst of a very bad bunch. | 0:29:06 | 0:29:09 | |
Graham. | 0:29:12 | 0:29:13 | |
-Yes. -Why Louise? | 0:29:13 | 0:29:15 | |

-You think she was the weakest link? -I think she was. | 0:29:19 | 0:29:23 | |
Shelley. | 0:29:23 | 0:29:24 | |
Anne, I know. | 0:29:24 | 0:29:26 | |

Why did you vote for Louise? | 0:29:35 | 0:29:37 | |
She was NEARLY as bad as myself. | 0:29:37 | 0:29:41 | |
She was. | 0:29:41 | 0:29:42 | |
She's hardly been brilliant, have you, dear? | 0:29:42 | 0:29:45 | |
You are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:29:45 | 0:29:49 | |
I think the team as a whole have not played well. | 0:29:55 | 0:29:58 | |
To get a few answers right on the trot | 0:29:58 | 0:30:00 | |
would be a good way of getting some money in the bank. | 0:30:00 | 0:30:05 | |
Shelley should be the next to go. | 0:30:05 | 0:30:07 | |
She's got a few easy questions wrong | 0:30:07 | 0:30:10 | |
and she dithers, so Shelley should be the next one off. | 0:30:10 | 0:30:14 | |

Statistically, Sharon is the weakest link. | 0:32:56 | 0:32:59 | |
Getting the most questions correct, Graham is the strongest link. | 0:32:59 | 0:33:04 | |
But will the votes follow the facts? | 0:33:04 | 0:33:07 | |
It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:33:08 | 0:33:12 | |

-Sharon, why Mark? -I just felt he had a bad round. | 0:33:26 | 0:33:30 | |
Mark, why Sharon? | 0:33:32 | 0:33:35 | |
She's been brilliant all the way through, but a bad round. | 0:33:35 | 0:33:39 | |
When the vote's tied, the strongest link casts the deciding vote. | 0:33:39 | 0:33:44 | |
-Graham, have you ganged up against the women? -No! | 0:33:44 | 0:33:49 | |
Not at all. Wouldn't dream of it. | 0:33:49 | 0:33:52 | |

Because she was weakest in that round. | 0:33:56 | 0:33:59 | |
-And you now have a chance to change your mind. -I'll stick with Sharon. | 0:33:59 | 0:34:04 | |
Sharon, you are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:34:04 | 0:34:07 | |
I think the boys were very pleased to see me have a bad round, | 0:34:13 | 0:34:18 | |
and get rid of me, because I've been the strongest link a couple of times. | 0:34:18 | 0:34:23 | |
Shelley will be next. She's at the other side and she's a girl. | 0:34:23 | 0:34:27 | |

ENDOF-ROUND JINGLE | 0:36:48 | 0:36:50 | |
Time's up. Just £90 you won. | 0:36:50 | 0:36:53 | |
In Round Eight, you get the chance to treble what you bank. | 0:36:53 | 0:36:58 | |
So, in the next round, potentially, there's £3,000 to be won. | 0:36:58 | 0:37:03 | |
The question is, | 0:37:03 | 0:37:05 | |
who are you going to get rid of? Who are you going to keep? | 0:37:05 | 0:37:09 | |
It's time to vote off the WEAKEST link. | 0:37:09 | 0:37:13 | |
At this crucial stage of the game, Mark is the strongest link. | 0:37:15 | 0:37:20 | |
Shelley is the weakest link, having answered no questions correctly. | 0:37:20 | 0:37:24 | |
But who will lose out in the final vote? | 0:37:24 | 0:37:28 | |
It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link. | 0:37:29 | 0:37:33 | |
Mark, you must be astonished that you're still here. | 0:37:43 | 0:37:47 | |
Shocked. | 0:37:47 | 0:37:49 | |
Shocked. I've done terrible. | 0:37:49 | 0:37:51 | |
No excuses. | 0:37:51 | 0:37:53 | |
-Why Shelley? -I thought she was the weakest link in that round. | 0:37:54 | 0:37:59 | |
-Graham, even more amazing that YOU'RE here. -I think you're right. | 0:37:59 | 0:38:03 | |
-Why Shelley? -We were all rubbish in that round, | 0:38:03 | 0:38:07 | |
but I remember Mark getting a couple right. | 0:38:07 | 0:38:10 | |
Shelley, the guys don't think you've delivered the goods. | 0:38:10 | 0:38:15 | |
Back to gynaecology for you. | 0:38:16 | 0:38:18 | |
You are the weakest link. Goodbye. | 0:38:18 | 0:38:21 | |
I'm very disappointed I didn't get through to the last two. | 0:38:27 | 0:38:32 | |
I thought if I didn't get off by the second or third round, | 0:38:32 | 0:38:36 | |
I had a good chance. I hope that Graham and Mark do not win an awful lot of money in the final round. | 0:38:36 | 0:38:43 | |
They deserve each other. | 0:38:43 | 0:38:45 | |
Round Eight. You've won £930 out of a possible £7,000. | 0:38:47 | 0:38:52 | |
Graham and Mark, two of you left. You have 90 seconds. | 0:38:53 | 0:38:57 | |
But whatever you win will be trebled and added to your total | 0:38:57 | 0:39:00 | |
to make up your final prize money. | 0:39:00 | 0:39:03 | |
So £3,000 is at stake. We'll start with the strongest link, Mark. | 0:39:03 | 0:39:08 | |
