0:07:22 > 0:07:25So your Uncle Derek gave you the job?
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Well, I think I earned my stripes.

0:07:30 > 0:07:35- Well, only by marriage.- I see. What's your auntie called?- Rosemary.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38So Auntie Rosemary got Uncle Derek to give you the job?

0:08:00 > 0:08:03Well, the vote's tied, you were the strongest link,
0:08:03 > 0:08:09and you have a choice - you can get rid of Gareth or you can get rid of Gerry.
0:08:09 > 0:08:12I think, in view of Gerry's vote, I might choose Gerry!
0:08:12 > 0:08:15Gerry, you are the weakest link. Goodbye!
0:08:22 > 0:08:27Somebody has to be voted off, but at least I got the team £1,000,
0:08:27 > 0:08:31I didn't get a question wrong and we banked the first £1,000.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34So they can go on to win quite a lot of money, I hope.
0:08:34 > 0:08:35And good luck to them!
0:08:37 > 0:08:42Round Two. In the bank, £1,000. We're now taking 10 seconds off your time.
