00:14You're welcome, guys.
00:16They're each trying to win up to £50,000 for charity,
00:19but to do that, they'll have to work together.
00:21Seven will leave with nothing, as round by round,
00:23we lose the player, voted The Weakest Link.
00:26Let's meet the team.
00:30I'm Lou, a comedian from Kent.
00:34I'm Ross, broadcaster from Glasgow via Hollywood.
00:39I'm Eddie, a comedian and presenter from West London.
