0:00:03 > 0:00:07Here are the nine contestants preparing for today's show.
0:00:07 > 0:00:10Only one of them will win up to £10,000.
0:00:10 > 0:00:15The others will leave with nothing when voted off as the weakest link.
0:00:29 > 0:00:34Welcome to a quiz show champion edition of the Weakest Link.
0:00:36 > 0:00:40The nine people in the studio are all winners
0:00:40 > 0:00:42who THINK they're the cleverest in the land.
0:00:45 > 0:00:48But I hope we all know who's first among equals here.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53Anyway, they can win up to £10,000 for charity,
0:00:53 > 0:00:58but if they want that prize money, they'll have to work together.
0:00:58 > 0:01:01However, eight will leave with nothing,
0:01:01 > 0:01:04as round by round, we lose the player voted the weakest link.
0:01:04 > 0:01:08Let's meet the team.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10I'm Bill, and I'm from Greenock.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12I was a Fifteen to One champion,
0:01:12 > 0:01:17and set a record by getting the maximum score of 433.
0:01:17 > 0:01:21So when it comes to scoring points with Anne today, who knows?
0:01:21 > 0:01:22She may have met her match.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26I'm Kerri, and I'm from Gidea Park in Essex,
0:01:26 > 0:01:28and I'm the biggest prize-winner on Pointless,

0:01:36 > 0:01:40so I own a ground-glass spittoon, and a million-pound cheque.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42I'll leave it to you to judge which I value more.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46I'm Jenny, from Salwarpe.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49I won University Challenge in 2010 with Emmanuel College, Cambridge,
0:01:49 > 0:01:52and now I'm hoping to add the strongest link to my CV.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56I'm Ravi, from Chester.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58I'm the Weakest Link's biggest ever prize-winner,
0:01:58 > 0:02:01which was very nice, but not as nice as winning £1 million.
0:02:03 > 0:02:06I'm Judith, I live in London, and I was the first person in the UK
0:02:06 > 0:02:09to win £1 million on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?,
0:02:09 > 0:02:11and nobody coughed!
0:02:14 > 0:02:17I'm Ian, I'm the current Mastermind champion,
0:02:17 > 0:02:23and I'm here to prove that I can answer questions standing up as well as sitting down.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29I'm Steph, from Haverhill, and I won the National Lottery People's Quiz,
0:02:29 > 0:02:32which is almost as good as winning the lottery.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35I'm Chris, from Crewe,
0:02:35 > 0:02:37and as an Egghead, I have the answer to the definitive question
0:02:37 > 0:02:40that has exercised intellectuals for centuries.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Which came first? It's the egg, people!
0:02:46 > 0:02:50OK, just to remind you, in each round, there's £1,000 to be won.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53The fastest way is to create a chain of nine correct answers.
0:02:55 > 0:02:59Break the chain and you lose all the money in that chain.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02Say "Bank" before the question is asked and the money is safe.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Round One, three minutes on the clock.
0:03:07 > 0:03:11We'll start with the person whose name is first alphabetically.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13That's you, Bill.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17Let's play the Weakest Link.
0:03:19 > 0:03:20The first question is for £20.
0:03:20 > 0:03:21Start the clock.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30END-OF-ROUND JINGLE
0:04:30 > 0:04:34OK. You've reached and banked your £1,000 target...
0:04:35 > 0:04:39..in that pathetically easy round.
0:04:41 > 0:04:46Who's worrying you? Who won't keep up the pace in the rounds to come?
0:04:46 > 0:04:47Who's already annoyed you?
0:04:47 > 0:04:52Have the courage NOT to vote off your biggest rival.
0:04:52 > 0:04:53It'll show.
0:04:55 > 0:04:58Time to vote off the weakest link.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02In an impressive first round, Bill is the strongest link,
0:05:02 > 0:05:04as he banked all the money for the team.
0:05:04 > 0:05:07Statistically, Kerri is the weakest link,
0:05:07 > 0:05:11but who will the players vote off at this early stage of the game?
0:05:13 > 0:05:17Voting over. It's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22Jenny.
0:05:23 > 0:05:24Ian.
0:05:24 > 0:05:25Kerri.

0:05:32 > 0:05:33Kerri.
0:05:34 > 0:05:35Ian.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38Jenny.
0:05:40 > 0:05:41Ravishing Ravi.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44Hello, Anne. Nice to see you again.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46You still haven't had your ears pinned back.
0:05:46 > 0:05:47No, I've decided that I'm proud of them,
0:05:47 > 0:05:50and I like them the way they are, flapping in the breeze.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Really? And this is your third appearance?
0:05:52 > 0:05:54It is, yes.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56What is it about me you like so much?
0:05:56 > 0:05:59I don't know, Anne, but I'm marvelling at how much younger
0:05:59 > 0:06:00you look than last time, it's just amazing.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02Good.
0:06:02 > 0:06:03And you're still a paediatrician?
0:06:03 > 0:06:05I am still a paediatrician.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07And when you're leaning on to look at the babies,
0:06:07 > 0:06:11is it helpful to have a wind flapping?
0:06:11 > 0:06:13Well, it is when they've got fevers,
0:06:13 > 0:06:15- because it must help to cool them down.- Yes.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18And what else have you been doing since you were last on here?
0:06:18 > 0:06:21Well, I've developed my midlife crisis further,
0:06:21 > 0:06:23and I've taken up doing triathlons.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25Yes, that's very boring. Anything else?
0:06:25 > 0:06:27I indulge in the occasional karaoke.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Put your board down.
0:06:29 > 0:06:31- What can you sing?- Erm...
0:06:31 > 0:06:34I could do Honky Tonk Woman by The Rolling Stones in tribute to you.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36I doubt whether you can, but you could try.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Have you started yet?
0:06:39 > 0:06:44# I met her, a gin-soaked bar room queen in Memphis
0:06:44 > 0:06:48# She tried to take me upstairs for a ride
0:06:48 > 0:06:54# She had to heave me right across her shoulder
0:06:54 > 0:06:58# But I just can't seem to drink it off of my mind. #
0:07:00 > 0:07:01Put your board up.
0:07:01 > 0:07:06OK. Ian is the current Mastermind champion.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09What possible reason could there be to eliminate him?
0:07:09 > 0:07:13Well, he has a very good highbrow-end knowledge, but the Weakest Link
0:07:13 > 0:07:17is an all-encompassing quiz show, and delves into the lowbrow a little bit -
0:07:17 > 0:07:19that's no insult to you - and I just felt that he might
0:07:19 > 0:07:24struggle with some of the soap opera and B-list celebrity questions.
0:07:24 > 0:07:29- Kerri, remind me what you've won. - Pointless.- Oh, put your board down.
0:07:29 > 0:07:30You've brought your own Eggheads!
0:07:30 > 0:07:33Yes, most definitely.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Put your board up.
0:07:35 > 0:07:36And remind me what your job is.
0:07:36 > 0:07:37I'm a track assessment technician.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Do you know, I don't know what that means.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42The easiest way to describe it is I make sure trains
0:07:42 > 0:07:46don't crash into things that they want to install on the Underground.
0:07:46 > 0:07:47You stop the trains, do you?
0:07:47 > 0:07:49No, I make sure that they fit in the tunnels.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Do you fit through the tunnels?
0:07:51 > 0:07:52Just about!
0:07:52 > 0:07:55And tell me, Ian's the current Mastermind champion.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58What possible excuse have you got?
0:07:58 > 0:08:01Did you feel that he might beat you in the rounds to come?
0:08:01 > 0:08:02Oh, absolutely.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04Yes. He's your worst rival, is he?
0:08:04 > 0:08:07No, I would have said that was Chris.
0:08:07 > 0:08:08What have you won, Steph?
0:08:08 > 0:08:12I won the National Lottery People's Quiz.
0:08:12 > 0:08:13Did you? Have you got a job?
0:08:13 > 0:08:16No, I'm a part-time student.
0:08:16 > 0:08:17Oh, which university are you at?
0:08:17 > 0:08:19University of Essex.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21- Really? Studying what? - Local and Community History.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24Really? So have you done the history of tanning salons yet?
0:08:24 > 0:08:26It's not that part of Essex, I'm afraid.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28It's North Essex, we're different up there.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31Yes, and have you learned to dance round your handbag?
0:08:31 > 0:08:35I think we grow up knowing how to do that.
0:08:35 > 0:08:39And presumably you're getting very, very excited, standing next to Ian.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42He's the George Clooney of quiz shows, isn't he?
0:08:42 > 0:08:45Well, he is, and it's an honour to stand next to him.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Yes, so why do you want to get rid of him?
0:08:47 > 0:08:50I just think that maybe he's not going to cope
0:08:50 > 0:08:52too well with the pressure.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55I think he's used to a more intellectual-type quiz...
0:08:55 > 0:08:58I'm sorry, is that some reflection on my show?
0:09:00 > 0:09:04No, I think all general knowledge is equally valid,
0:09:04 > 0:09:08but I think he might struggle with the pressure on this show.
0:09:08 > 0:09:09What?
0:09:09 > 0:09:10What pressure?
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Having to stand up straight
0:09:13 > 0:09:15and turn the board the right way, possibly.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19Ian, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.
0:09:24 > 0:09:30I'm glad that I've helped to raise money for charity.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32I wish it was my own charity,
0:09:32 > 0:09:37but the show can't happen without nine people willing to do it,
0:09:37 > 0:09:40and as a result, a large sum of money,
0:09:40 > 0:09:44hopefully a large sum of money, will be going to a good cause.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49Round Two, and in the bank, £1,000.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51We're now taking 10 seconds off your time.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54We'll start with the strongest link from the last round. That's Bill.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56Let's play the Weakest Link.
0:09:57 > 0:09:58Start the clock.
0:09:59 > 0:10:02Bill, in a pub quiz, when a team nominates its favoured round
0:10:02 > 0:10:04in the hope of scoring extra points, it's said to play its what?
0:10:04 > 0:10:06Riddler or Joker?
0:10:06 > 0:10:08Its Joker.

0:11:11 > 0:11:12Euro.
0:11:12 > 0:11:13- Correct.- Bank!
0:11:13 > 0:11:16END-OF-ROUND-JINGLE
0:11:16 > 0:11:19OK, you've reached and banked your £1,000 target
0:11:19 > 0:11:23in that second pathetically easy round.
0:11:25 > 0:11:26Who's worrying you?
0:11:26 > 0:11:29Who won't make it in the rounds to come?
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Time to vote off the weakest link.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37Having answered the most questions correctly,
0:11:37 > 0:11:40Bill is still the strongest link.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42The weakest link, statistically, is David,
0:11:42 > 0:11:45but will the voting reflect reality?
0:11:46 > 0:11:51Voting over, it's time to reveal who you think is the weakest link.
0:11:53 > 0:11:55Kerri.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Jenny.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59Jenny.
0:11:59 > 0:12:00Chris.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03Steph.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06Bill.
0:12:06 > 0:12:07Bill.
0:12:07 > 0:12:09Jenny.
0:12:11 > 0:12:13Remind us what you've won, David.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17Millionaire and Mastermind.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20Yes, and you represented your country, did you?
0:12:20 > 0:12:21I did, Anne, yes.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23Yes. Which country is that?
0:12:23 > 0:12:25That would be Wales, Anne.
0:12:25 > 0:12:26And when you got the £1 million,
0:12:26 > 0:12:29couldn't you have gone back and bought Wales?
0:12:29 > 0:12:31I could have bought Liverpool,
0:12:31 > 0:12:33but I don't think I'd have run to Wales.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35No. Why Jenny?
0:12:35 > 0:12:38Well, nobody deserves to go, do they, Anne?
0:12:38 > 0:12:40But it's the same reason as I voted for Kerri last time.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43It's simply a matter of minimising the amount
0:12:43 > 0:12:46that an old man has to crane his neck.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Do you want to elaborate on that?
0:12:48 > 0:12:50I voted for Kerri last time.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53I didn't want to vote for the same person again,
0:12:53 > 0:12:58but at the same time I don't want to have to twist my neck too much
0:12:58 > 0:13:03as the game goes on, so I went for Jenny because she actually
0:13:03 > 0:13:08requires the biggest twist of my neck to actually get to look at her.
0:13:08 > 0:13:09- So, Chris.- Anne.
0:13:09 > 0:13:11You're the original Egghead.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14I'm one of the five originals, yeah.
0:13:14 > 0:13:15And what do you do, Chris?
0:13:15 > 0:13:16I'm retired, Anne.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18Are you? From what?
0:13:18 > 0:13:19I used to be a train driver.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22Right, and how many times have you been on television?
0:13:22 > 0:13:25Well, if we count every show of Eggheads, something over 1,000.
0:13:25 > 0:13:27So, women must be throwing themselves at you.
0:13:28 > 0:13:31I don't know why they don't!
0:13:31 > 0:13:34You'd think I'd be beating them off with a well-manured shillelagh
0:13:34 > 0:13:36when everyone knows I'm free and available,
0:13:36 > 0:13:37but it just doesn't happen.
0:13:37 > 0:13:38Why Jenny?
0:13:38 > 0:13:41To draw an analogy, this game needs battleships.
0:13:41 > 0:13:45The ladies are - shall we say? - more cruisers.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47Smaller guns, less armour.
0:13:47 > 0:13:48Really?
0:13:48 > 0:13:50Would you say that women have less brains than men?
0:13:50 > 0:13:54I didn't say brains, I said smaller guns and less armour.
0:13:54 > 0:13:55Could you explain that?
0:13:55 > 0:13:56Right, OK.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58Back in the days when we had a Navy,
0:13:58 > 0:14:00the capital ships were the battleships,
0:14:00 > 0:14:02which were heavily armoured, heavily gunned
0:14:02 > 0:14:04and didn't venture out of port much.
0:14:04 > 0:14:09The world was released by cruisers, which were fast ships, medium-sized,
0:14:09 > 0:14:12six-inch, eight-inch guns and relatively light armour.
0:14:13 > 0:14:16This would sum up the ladies - fast, lightly armoured,
0:14:16 > 0:14:22and we just sit around on a mound of herring and tomato tins growing rust.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25This analogy has gone far enough.
0:14:25 > 0:14:29You're the sort of Robert Redford of quizzes, aren't you?
0:14:29 > 0:14:32Er, more like the Robert Morley, I would say.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Jenny, you are the weakest link. Goodbye.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44Well, it's pretty annoying to get voted off in Round Two
0:14:44 > 0:14:46without even having got a question wrong.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50I think that they were picking on me because I'm younger than them,
0:14:50 > 0:14:54and they think I don't know as much, but they may regret it later on.
0:14:56 > 0:15:01Round Three. We're down to seven players. You've won £2,000.

0:18:58 > 0:18:59Have you given up the church?
0:18:59 > 0:19:03No, no, no. I still keep my hand in.

0:19:07 > 0:19:08Oh, what's that called?
0:19:08 > 0:19:09It's called supply.
0:19:09 > 0:19:10Why Judith?
0:19:10 > 0:19:13Well, apart from the fact that she voted for me,
0:19:13 > 0:19:14and because she voted for me before.
0:19:14 > 0:19:18I'm like the Habsburg monarchy. We forget nothing.
0:19:18 > 0:19:21But if you're a minister, don't you turn the other cheek?
0:19:21 > 0:19:25Oh, yes, yes, but I forget nothing.
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Steph, why Judith?
0:19:28 > 0:19:31It's because I have a very short attention span,
0:19:31 > 0:19:33and I can't really remember what everyone else did,
0:19:33 > 0:19:35but because Judith has the misfortune to be
0:19:35 > 0:19:39immediately before me, I remembered that she got some questions wrong.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42Judith, you were the first person to win Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
0:19:42 > 0:19:44- Yeah.- And have you spent all your money?

0:19:54 > 0:19:56Oh, 125, I think.

0:20:01 > 0:20:04- And did you share 50/50 of the money with her?- Not 50/50.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07I shared a proportion of the 125 that she won for me.
0:20:07 > 0:20:10Oh. Is there an etiquette on this?
0:20:10 > 0:20:12I didn't know the etiquette, so I had to sort of make it up.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14Oh, so what did you give her?
0:20:14 > 0:20:17It was a proportion of 125. Anyway, not your business, actually!
0:20:17 > 0:20:20So you don't want to tell us?
0:20:20 > 0:20:22No, it's not your business!
0:20:22 > 0:20:23- Judith.- Yes.
0:20:23 > 0:20:25You are the weakest link. Goodbye.
0:20:32 > 0:20:36The two people who were voted off before me were highly academic
0:20:36 > 0:20:41and intelligent and so on, so it is difficult to predict,
0:20:41 > 0:20:45as not the most intelligent person's necessarily going to win.
0:20:46 > 0:20:51Round Four. In the bank, £2,350. Another 10 seconds off the time.

0:24:32 > 0:24:36Chris, why Bill?
0:24:36 > 0:24:39I wasn't paying too close attention at the end of the last round, Anne.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41Whatever that nonsense was, I think it lost us money.
0:24:41 > 0:24:46So, Bill, the retired minister, you're voting for Chris.
0:24:46 > 0:24:48You thought he was the worst player, did you?
0:24:48 > 0:24:49No, I didn't think that.
0:24:49 > 0:24:54I think he lost us money because I made a mess at the end,
0:24:54 > 0:24:58but I really felt that he was running the clock down too tightly.
0:24:58 > 0:25:00So, what should he have done?
0:25:00 > 0:25:02He should have banked before he took the question.
0:25:02 > 0:25:07When the vote's tied, the strongest link has to cast the deciding vote.

0:25:15 > 0:25:18Well, since it's between me and Bill,

0:25:35 > 0:25:41Oh, I think Chris and I were involved in what you would call a road traffic accident in Quizland.
0:25:41 > 0:25:45I felt that maybe he should have banked before he took the last question.
0:25:45 > 0:25:49He took the last question and left me little time to shout bank,
0:25:49 > 0:25:53and I think I flustered and didn't do it.
