Of nine contestants preparing for today's show,

0:00:010:00:05

only one will take home prize money of up to £10,000.

0:00:050:00:09

The rest leave with nothing

0:00:090:00:11

as one by one they're voted off as the weakest link.

0:00:110:00:15

Welcome to The Weakest Link.

0:00:290:00:31

Any of the nine people in the studio here today

0:00:320:00:36

could win up to £10,000.

0:00:360:00:39

If they want that money, they'll have to work as a team.

0:00:390:00:43

But eight will leave with nothing,

0:00:430:00:46

as round by round we lose the player voted the weakest link.

0:00:460:00:50

Let's meet the team.

0:00:500:00:52

I'm Michael, 32, from Essex. I'm a sales agent.

0:00:530:00:58

I'm Andrea. I'm 39. I live in Edinburgh, and I'm a staff nurse.

0:00:580:01:03

My name is Faith. I'm 46, from Walton, and I'm a teacher.

0:01:030:01:08

I'm Andy, 25, from Rugby. I'm an audio-visual technician.

0:01:080:01:13

I'm Colin. I'm 57. I live in St Mary Cray, Kent, and I'm a steel fixer.

0:01:130:01:19

I'm Kathryn. I'm 31, I'm from mid Glamorgan, and I'm a caterer.

0:01:190:01:25

I'm Margaret. I'm 24. I'm from London, and I'm a credit controller.

0:01:250:01:30

0:01:300:01:35

My name is Hay-Ming. I'm 23, from Somerset, and I'm a student.

0:01:350:01:39

The aim is to get enough answers correct

0:01:400:01:44

to reach your £1,000 target in the time. The fastest way

0:01:440:01:48

is to create a chain of nine correct answers.

0:01:480:01:53

A wrong reply breaks the chain

0:01:530:01:55

and loses you the money in it.

0:01:550:01:57

Say "bank" before the question ends,

0:01:570:02:01

and the money is safe.

0:02:010:02:03

You start a new chain. At the end of a round,

0:02:030:02:07

only banked money can be taken forward.

0:02:070:02:10

Round One. Three minutes.

0:05:320:05:36

At one point you had a chain

0:05:360:05:39

0:05:540:05:58

The strongest is Andy, with the most answers correct.

0:05:580:06:03

0:06:030:06:06

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

0:06:060:06:11

We have a tie. Michael and Andrea

0:06:290:06:32

have three votes each.

0:06:320:06:35

-Hay-Ming.

-Hi.

0:06:360:06:39

-What's so funny?

-Nothing.

0:06:390:06:43

You're a student.

0:06:430:06:44

-Yes, I am.

-Of what?

-Medicine.

0:06:440:06:48

-Where?

-Guy's, King's and St Thomas's.

0:06:480:06:51

0:06:550:06:59

-In a year-and-a-half.

0:06:590:07:03

-Why Andrea?

-There were quite a few people

0:07:030:07:06

about the same, but the hexagon question

0:07:060:07:10

was the easiest that was wrong.

0:07:100:07:13

-It's not that she's a nurse?

-Not at all.

0:07:130:07:16

I've a high regard for nurses.

0:07:160:07:18

-Well, they help you out when you don't know what to do.

-Yes, they do.

0:07:180:07:23

-Kathryn. Why Andrea?

-She got a simple question wrong.

0:07:230:07:29

Was your question not simple?

0:07:290:07:31

It was more tricky than the hexagon.

0:07:310:07:35

-Are you as interesting as your shirt?

-Hope so.

0:07:360:07:40

-What do you do?

-I'm a steel fixer.

0:07:400:07:43

-What is that?

-I work on projects

0:07:430:07:45

like Queen Elizabeth Bridge and Canary Wharf, putting reinforcing in.

0:07:450:07:51

-Do you climb up Canary Wharf?

-No, you have a scaffold.

0:07:510:07:56

-That's cheating, isn't it?

-Not at my age, it's not.

0:07:560:07:59

-How do you think you did?

-I got one wrong, like other people.

0:07:590:08:04

Why do you want to get rid of Michael?

0:08:040:08:07

He got one wrong when we was on a roll.

0:08:070:08:10

-On a roll, were we?

-We was on a roll.

-"We was on a roll."

0:08:100:08:14

-George, the gardener. Why Michael?

-It was a tough round.

0:08:140:08:19

Michael got one wrong

0:08:190:08:22

when we'd got quite a bit of money. So I vote for Michael.

0:08:220:08:27

When the vote is tied,

0:08:270:08:29

the strongest link casts the deciding vote.

0:08:290:08:32

That was Andy.

0:08:320:08:34

-What do you do, Andy?

-I'm an audio-visual technician.

0:08:340:08:39

What's that?

0:08:390:08:40

My company hire equipment to hotels and conferences.

0:08:400:08:45

Right. And what do you do with it?

0:08:450:08:47

-I set it up and run it.

-Do you?

0:08:470:08:50

You dislike clever students?

0:08:510:08:54

It was the question about the city.

0:08:540:08:58

You asked for country, he said a city.

0:08:580:09:01

You've got a choice. Who do you want to go?

0:09:010:09:04

I'll go for Michael.

0:09:040:09:06

-Why?

-He's nervous and might hold us back.

0:09:060:09:11

Michael, sales agent, your day is done. You are the weakest link.

0:09:110:09:16

Goodbye.

0:09:160:09:18

I can't believe they voted me off. I'm absolutely gutted. Honestly.

0:09:220:09:27

It's going to be total embarrassment at home. I'm devastated.

0:09:270:09:31

Andrea's question was far easier than mine.

0:09:310:09:35

Unless I swear, I won't get my feelings out.

0:09:350:09:39

Round Two, team.

0:09:400:09:42

So far you have £800 out of a possible £1,000.

0:09:420:09:47

There are eight of you left,

including Hay-Ming, who's so clever as a medical student

he spreads himself across three hospitals, by bus.

0:09:540:09:58

And Colin, who climbs Canary Wharf, but needs scaffolding to help him.

0:09:580:10:04

-They're not as close.

0:14:170:14:21

Why Hay-Ming?

0:14:210:14:23

I hoped to bank, and he didn't give me a chance.

0:14:230:14:27

-Faith, what do you teach?

-I teach English to foreigners.

0:14:270:14:31

Oh, easy peasy.

You don't need as much qualifications as in a school.

0:14:390:14:43

You don't need so MANY qualifications,

but it does help to have some.

I'd love to make you disappear, but I haven't got my magic set.

0:14:580:15:03

Why Hay-Ming?

0:15:030:15:05

He broke the chain, and he got a couple of questions wrong.

0:15:050:15:09

Statistically, Hay-Ming was the worst.

0:15:090:15:12

He may do a brilliant job rushing between Guy's, Thomas's and King's,

0:15:120:15:18

but they don't need him here. You are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:15:180:15:23

I'm a little disappointed to be voted off so early.

0:15:300:15:34

I hoped to go a bit further.

0:15:340:15:36

I should have got the question on patent, and my mind went blank,

0:15:360:15:41

and it just slipped out of my head.

0:15:410:15:44

Kathryn should go next, as the question she got wrong,

0:15:440:15:49

the multiplication one, was the easiest.

0:15:490:15:52

Round Three.

0:15:520:15:55

You have £1,040 out of £2,000. Seven of you are left.

0:15:550:15:59

Ten more seconds come off the time.

0:15:590:16:02

Andrea.

Why Colin?

Absolutely correct.

0:20:340:20:39

Summer pudding was straightforward.

I don't eat pudding. It may be surprising, to look at me.

0:20:420:20:46

-I don't think it's surprising. It might be sad.

-Thanks!

0:20:460:20:51

Kathryn. You were the strongest in the last round.

0:20:510:20:54

Why Andrea?

0:20:540:20:56

I think nerves are getting to her,

0:20:560:20:58

-and she got a few questions wrong.

-OK. You now have a choice

0:20:580:21:03

between Andrea, Andy or Colin.

0:21:030:21:07

I'll stick to Andrea.

0:21:070:21:09

You don't like nurses?

0:21:090:21:11

-I have great respect for nurses.

0:21:110:21:16

It's nothing personal.

0:21:160:21:18

Andrea, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:21:180:21:21

I thought I would go when I saw Kathryn was the strongest link.

0:21:280:21:33

She's voted for me consistently.

0:21:330:21:35

So it was pretty much a dead cert.

0:21:350:21:38

I probably should have known the TV question.

0:21:380:21:41

I've got cable. It's shocking. I deserve to be shot.

I'd like to see Kathryn go, as I'm highly offended.

0:30:540:30:58

But on the spur of the moment,

0:30:580:31:00

you've got to think quick, talk quick, and I just got it wrong.

Time's up, and you banked £270.

0:33:370:33:41

Whose mouth no longer appears to be connected to their brain?

0:33:420:33:47

It's time to vote off the weakest link.

0:33:470:33:49

Andy is the weakest link.

0:33:520:33:54

Faith gave the most correct answers, so she's the strongest link.

0:33:540:33:58

She also banked the most money. But how will the votes go?

0:33:580:34:02

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

0:34:030:34:07

We have a tie. Faith and Andy, two votes each.

0:34:160:34:19

-Faith, why Andy?

-Well, he's had a very good run

0:34:210:34:25

but he's losing it a bit now, Anne.

0:34:250:34:27

-Andy, why Faith?

-Um...

0:34:290:34:33

She's had a good run but I think she's lost it.

0:34:330:34:37

-What gives you that idea?

-She says I'M losing it. She's one step ahead.

0:34:370:34:42

-Did you think she was the weakest link?

-I don't think she was.

0:34:420:34:46

You're sending off your biggest rival?

0:34:460:34:49

No, not at all.

0:34:490:34:50

You'll be pleased that

0:34:500:34:52

when the vote is tied, the strongest link decides.

0:34:520:34:56

And the strongest link in the last round

0:34:560:34:59

was Faith.

0:34:590:35:00

I'll stick with Andy.

0:35:000:35:02

Andy, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

0:35:020:35:05

I feel really gutted.

0:35:120:35:14

I thought Faith and I had a bond going, but she stuck the knife in at the end.

0:35:140:35:19

It's getting tight and the boys will lose out.

0:35:190:35:23

It'll be an all-girl final.

0:35:230:35:25

Round Seven, and out of a possible £6,000, you have banked...

0:35:260:35:31

-Bank.

0:37:330:37:36

When addressing a duke, you should initially call him...

0:37:360:37:41

Time's up,

0:37:420:37:44

and you won just £20. Dear, oh dear, oh dear!

0:37:440:37:47

In Round Eight, you treble what you bank so there's £3,000 to be won.

0:37:470:37:52

The question is...

0:37:520:37:54

who's got to go? Who will you hang on to?

0:37:540:37:57

Time to vote off the weakest link.

0:37:570:37:59

Faith has gone from being the strongest link to the weakest link.

0:38:020:38:07

She got all her answers wrong.

0:38:070:38:09

According to the statistics, Colin is the strongest link.

0:38:090:38:13

But at this crucial stage,

0:38:130:38:14

who will be the penultimate player to leave with nothing?

0:38:140:38:18

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

0:38:190:38:23

Colin, you think Kathryn

0:38:310:38:34

suits your shirt better?

0:38:340:38:36

No, Anne. It's just revenge.

0:38:360:38:39

Lovely lady, but someone had to go.

0:38:390:38:42

Kathryn, why Faith?

0:38:420:38:43

Because I REALLY like Colin's shirt.

0:38:430:38:46

Faith, you have entertained us for long enough. Goodbye.

0:38:460:38:50

Kathryn deserves to be in the final. I'm not sure about Colin.

0:38:570:39:01

He's a great personality, so I think it's anybody's game now.

0:39:010:39:06

Round Eight, and out of a possible £7,000, you've banked...

0:39:070:39:12

Colin and Kathryn, two of you left, and you have 90 seconds.

0:39:120:39:16

Your winnings will be trebled and added to your total to make up your prize.

0:39:160:39:21

So £3,000 is at stake.

0:39:210:39:23

We'll start with the strongest link.

0:39:230:39:26

That's Colin. Let's play The Weakest Link.

Time's up.

0:41:050:41:06

You managed to win £170,

0:41:060:41:08

which we'll treble and add to the winnings from the previous rounds.

0:41:080:41:13

That means prize money of...

0:41:130:41:15

But of course,

0:41:150:41:17

only one of you can take it away,

0:41:170:41:19

so you'll play head to head.

0:41:190:41:21

I'll ask five alternating questions.

0:41:210:41:24

Whoever gets the most right wins.

0:41:240:41:26

If there's a tie after five,

0:41:260:41:29

we go for sudden death until we have a winner.

0:41:290:41:32

So, Colin and Kathryn, for £2,950,

0:41:320:41:38

let's play The Weakest Link.

0:41:380:41:40

Kathryn, you have the choice of who goes first.

0:41:420:41:45

Join us again for The Weakest Link.

0:43:380:43:40

Goodbye.

I feel great. The family had no faith that I'd get this far,

0:43:440:43:48

but I showed 'em.

0:43:480:43:49

I didn't expect to beat Colin,

0:43:490:43:51

because he'd been quite consistent.

0:43:510:43:55

I was hopeful, but it wasn't to be.

0:43:550:43:59

I felt I had more chance of beating Kathryn.

0:43:590:44:02

That's why I voted for Faith.

0:44:020:44:04

I'm a coward when it comes to money.
