All right, then. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:02 | |

-Not very often, no. -No. Move back. -LAUGHTER | 0:15:08 | 0:15:12 | |
Why Leo? | 0:15:12 | 0:15:13 | |
He got a couple of questions wrong. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:15 | |
I know there was a few people who did, but I think he did. | 0:15:15 | 0:15:18 | |
Leo, you are the weakest link, goodbye. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:20 | |
I think I was pretty lucky with not getting spoken to by Anne, | 0:15:27 | 0:15:31 | |
particularly after I got the law question wrong. | 0:15:31 | 0:15:34 | |
She would have torn me apart. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:35 | |

Brett is statistically the weakest link, | 0:18:50 | 0:18:53 | |
but can he survive the vote? | 0:18:53 | 0:18:56 | |

-Say four hours. -OK. -And what do you do then? -Go to a bunk and sleep. | 0:19:46 | 0:19:50 | |
On your planes, there'd be nothing to stop you putting on a pinny... | 0:19:50 | 0:19:55 | |
-Yep. -..and serving. | 0:19:55 | 0:19:58 | |
-Nothing to stop me at all. -Why don't you do that? It would save on cabin crew. | 0:19:58 | 0:20:04 | |
I need my beauty rest, as you can probably tell. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:07 | |
Put your board down. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:08 | |
-OK. -Could you do the safety message at the beginning? -No, I couldn't, Anne. -Put your arms out. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:14 | |

-And tie a bow at the side. -Yes. Now show me where the whistle is. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:34 | |
The whistle is here for attracting attention. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:36 | |
Put your board up. | 0:20:36 | 0:20:39 | |
-Why Sally? -I seem to remember a bit of a stinker - | 0:20:40 | 0:20:43 | |

-Majors and above. -Do you have to be shapely and pretty to have your job? | 0:21:14 | 0:21:19 | |
Not necessarily. I mean, look, I've got the job. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:22 | |
-I didn't want to say it myself. -SUE LAUGHS | 0:21:22 | 0:21:25 | |
Why Brett? | 0:21:25 | 0:21:27 | |
The question about the man that he got wrong. | 0:21:27 | 0:21:31 | |
When the vote's tied, the strongest link has to cast the deciding vote. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:36 | |
And the strongest link was David. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:38 | |
Now, just for clarity, we need the decision today. | 0:21:38 | 0:21:43 | |
You can either get rid of Sally or Brett. | 0:21:43 | 0:21:47 | |
I'll go for Sally. | 0:21:47 | 0:21:48 | |
Why Sally? | 0:21:48 | 0:21:50 | |
I just remember her getting a question wrong, as well. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:53 | |
Sally, you are the weakest link, goodbye. | 0:21:53 | 0:21:55 | |
Doing the walk of shame was quite a relief in some ways. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:07 | |
I didn't get to face the wrath of Anne, but just walking past her, I got cold shivers | 0:22:07 | 0:22:14 | |
