Of the nine contestants in today's show, | 0:00:01 | 0:00:05 | |
only one will take home the prize money of up to £10,000. | 0:00:05 | 0:00:10 | |
The rest leave with nothing as, one by one, they're voted off | 0:00:10 | 0:00:14 | |
as the weakest link. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:17 | |
Welcome to The Weakest Link! | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
Any of the nine people here could win up to £10,000. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:38 | |
They don't know each other. | 0:00:38 | 0:00:40 | |
But if they want that money, they must work as a team. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:44 | |
Eight will leave with nothing as, round by round, we lose the player voted the weakest link. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:52 | |
Let's meet the team. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
I'm Gary, 36. I live on Guernsey. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:58 | |
I'm an air traffic controller. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:01 | |
I'm Ron, 42, from near Abergavenny in Wales, a residential home manager. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:07 | |

I'm Steve, 28, from Bicester, Oxfordshire. I'm a business development manager. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:48 | |
The rules: in each round, aim to answer enough questions correctly to reach £1,000 in the time. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:56 | |
The fastest way is to create a chain of nine correct answers. | 0:01:56 | 0:02:01 | |
One wrong breaks the chain and loses the money. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:06 | |
But if you say "bank" before your question, the money is safe, | 0:02:06 | 0:02:11 | |
though you start a new chain. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
Only banked money can be taken forward. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:17 | |
Round one. Three minutes on the clock. We start with the person whose name is first alphabetically. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:25 | |

Um...I'm tempted to change to Ken, | 0:38:19 | 0:38:22 | |
seeing as he's voted for me, | 0:38:22 | 0:38:26 | |
-but I'll stick to the mean, thank you. Sarah. -Sarah, back to Blackburn. | 0:38:26 | 0:38:31 | |
