Hunks Weakest Link

Here are the nine contestants preparing for today's show.

Only one of them will win up to £10,000.

The others will leave with nothing when voted off as the weakest link.

Welcome to a hunky edition of the Weakest Link.

The nine people in the studio here today have all got great bodies

and good looks.

So that makes ten of us.

Anyway, they could win up to £10,000

but if they want the prize money,

they have to work together.

However, eight will leave with nothing,

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

Let's meet the team.

I'm Fenton, from east London.

I'm here to play some beautiful music and I've got one last dance just for Anne.

I'm Justin. I'm 23, from Basildon.

I work in a phone shop and today I'll be leaving with a number.

Anne's.

Nige, 46, from Scunthorpe.

I'm a steel worker. I work with molten steel. Today I'm here to melt Anne's heart.

I'm Kenzie, 25, from London. I'm a fitness model and I'm here to get Anne all hot and sweaty.

I'm Pete, 42, from Hove. I'm a tree surgeon.

After today I hope it'll be Pete and Anne in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G.

I'm Richard, 25, from Birmingham, and I work in recruitment.

I've got a new position for Anne!

I'm Leo. I'm a singer/songwriter from London and I'm here to serenade the beautiful Anne.

I'm Fred, 22, from Didmarton.

I'm a student at the University of Edinburgh studying French and Philosophy.

Et Anne, ma cherie, je t'aime!

Ken, from Edmonton. I'm 52 years old.

I'm a carnival king looking for my queen

and I'm here to show Anne I've still got the moves, baby!

In each round, there's £1,000 to be won.

The fastest way is to create a chain of nine correct answers.

Break the chain and you lose all the money in that chain.

Say "Bank" before the question is asked and the money is safe.

Who's worrying you? Who might lose you money in the rounds to come?

Time to vote off the weakest link.

In an impressive first round, Fenton is the strongest link

as he banked all the money for the team.

Statistically, Justin is the weakest link.

But can he survive the vote?

Kenzie.

Nige.

We have a tie, team.

Fred and Nige three votes each.

Ken, you've come in your pyjamas?

Not quite, Anne. I thought this was something that might attract you to me.

Really? Put your board down. Move towards Fred.

Oh.

Yes, Anne. This is for you, Anne.

I've been working this for the last eight or nine years.

-The last time I was here...

-You haven't learnt to speak any clearer.

Maybe not cos I just have you in awe.

-I'm so much in awe of you, Anne!

-Put your board down.

So you're on the radio. And I'm listening.

And you're selling me a phone, a phone suitable for me.

Anne Robinson, I know you're listening to me on the radio.

Now, I know you're the kind of girl that likes texting. Also...

Do I look like someone who texts?

I know you need big buttons cos I know your eyes are going a bit now.

So we do have plenty of phones that will suit your needs.

Put your board up.

Why Fred?

-I got told that whoever wins this Weakest Link gets to spend the evening with you!

-Yes.

So I didn't want to waste your time or Fred's time

so that's why I voted him out.

-I'm trying to get there.

-When the vote's tied, the strongest link casts the deciding vote.

And the strongest link was Fenton.

Put your board down, Fenton.

Just move over towards Justin.

Are you holding your stomach in?

-No.

-Yeah.

So, since last time, the hair's gone and the fat's gone on the body.

-Yeah. Move back.

Put your board up.

-In clubs.

-Clubs in...?

-I was in Russia two weeks ago.

-In Cornwall last week.

-Cornwall last week!

-And Doncaster next week.

-Doncaster next week! Fantastic.

So the really racy life of a DJ.

-Well, I try to.

-Why are you getting rid of Fred?

Well, he goes to uni so I reckon he's very intelligent.

-He's too bright for you?

-He is.

-You've got a chance to change your vote.

Do you still want to get rid of Fred, or do you want to move to Nige?

Unfortunately, I'll have to stay with my original pick.

-Sorry, Fred.

-So, Fred, what did for you?

It must have been my charisma, charm, eloquent... No, none of those. That doesn't work.

But it was nice to see you again, albeit shortly.

Do you think the French didn't help, didn't endear you to them?

-Obviously not much has endeared me to them.

-No. Fred, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.

Anne was very lucky to be in a room with such a nice bunch of people.

Obviously we're the top nine hunks of all time.
