0:00:030:00:07

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

0:00:070:00:10

'The others will leave with nothing when voted off as...

0:00:100:00:13

'..the weakest link.'

0:00:130:00:16

Welcome to the Embarrassing Contestants edition

0:00:290:00:32

of Weakest Link.

0:00:320:00:35

The nine people in the studio today are all responsible

0:00:350:00:38

for some of the show's most ridiculous answers.

0:00:380:00:42

We're spoiled for choice.

0:00:420:00:45

Anyway, they can win up to £10,000

0:00:450:00:47

but if they want that prize money, they'll have to work together.

0:00:470:00:51

However, eight will leave with nothing

0:00:510:00:54

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

0:00:540:00:57

Let's meet the team.

0:00:570:01:00

I'm Sarah, I'm 30, from the West End of Glasgow

0:01:580:01:59

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

0:02:010:02:04

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

0:02:040:02:08

Break the chain and you lose all the money.

0:09:120:09:16

-Why Steve?

-Betty, why Ted?

-Because I think he had the most answers wrong.

0:29:490:29:53

Sarah, why Ted?

0:29:530:29:55

I just think maybe it's getting too warm for him and he's starting to flounder.

Yes. Maybe, yes.

0:33:360:33:38

-Did you think she was the worst player?

0:33:380:33:43

But I could be the worst player.

0:33:430:33:45

-Sarah, are you getting rid of a rival?

-Not at all.

0:33:450:33:48

I think Jen is great, but I don't see myself as necessarily the best,

0:33:480:33:53

Tim, why are you voting off the strongest link?

0:37:350:37:38

I'm sorry, Betty, but it's a bit tactical at the moment,

0:37:380:37:41

so she's got to go.
