00:14Behind me are eight celebrities who are each trying to win up to £50,000 for charity.
00:19But to do that, they'll have to work together. Seven will leave with nothing as round by round
00:23we lose the player voted The Weakest Link. I mean, this is the longest they've gone without
00:28talking ever. So, let's meet the team.

01:12In each round, the aim is to answer enough questions correctly to reach your target within

01:21work together to create a chain of eight correct answers. Get your question wrong. You break
01:26the chain, and you lose all of the money in that chain. But if you press your button and
01:31say bank before the question is asked, the money is safe, and you begin a new chain from
01:37scratch. You've got two minutes and 30 seconds for this round. We're going to start with the

24:01Rylan,
24:02talk me through
24:02what you're going

24:06of my show
24:07on a Saturday
24:08like she is yours.
24:09Yes.
24:09Some of Sally's answers
24:11are going to stay
24:11with me

24:13Yes.
24:14I think they'll stay
24:14with all of us.
24:15Yeah.
24:15And obviously,
24:16with Scott being
24:17my Eurovision husband,
24:19it was a really
24:20hard sell.
24:21But,
24:22ultimately,
24:23Michael had the
24:24casting post.
24:25Oh, it's...
24:25That's the way
24:28I look at it,
24:28Sally,

24:38question on,
24:39right?
24:39I mean,
24:40call myself a gay man?
24:42Yeah.
24:42That was a terrible answer.
24:43We're taking your card
24:44off, you know.
24:45Yeah, you should take my...
24:46I should be stripped
24:47of it,
24:48because the answer
24:48is pink.
24:49Yeah.
24:51You voted for Sally.
24:52Only to deflect
24:52from myself being
24:53really quite bad
24:54in that last round.
24:55It was a difficult
24:56round, Sally,
24:56wasn't it?
24:57But I got all
24:58my questions right.
25:00Did you?
25:01What?
25:01No, you didn't.
25:03Sally, not only
25:03did you get
25:04your questions wrong,
25:05when I gave you
25:06the correct answer,
25:06you just kept
25:07saying pardon.
25:08It was really
25:08off-putting.
25:09I can imagine.
25:10Shells on the seashore,
25:12your answer was
25:12pineapple.
25:13Yes.
25:13And then...
25:14Which European
25:17language?
25:17Yeah.
25:18Chinese.

25:19Michael then
25:29had to answer
25:29a question
25:30after that.
25:31Ciao.
25:32Was you thinking
25:33of Chow Mein?
25:34That's what I think.
25:34Yes, no, I did.
25:35Yes, I was.
25:37I think it's
25:38about time I left.
25:39I'm just, I mean,
25:41totally humiliating.
25:42No, no, no.
25:44And I won't ever
25:46forget, actually.
25:48Well, you probably
25:48will.
25:49But Sally, can I just...
25:50Quite soon.
25:53Sally, please do
25:55remember, as I say
25:56this now, I didn't
25:57vote for you.
25:58That's true.
25:59Yes.
26:00But I'm afraid to say,
26:01Sally, with three
26:03votes, you are the
26:05weakest link.
26:06Ciao, Mein.
26:09Oh, Sal.
26:11I won't forget
26:11this.
26:14Yeah, it was a
26:15little rough in places,
26:16particularly with me
26:17and Trevor, where,
26:18you know, we do have
26:19a little bit of
26:19previous, but it's
26:20always very difficult
26:21because you can't...
26:22Everyone says don't
26:23take it personally,
26:24but of course, you
26:25sort of do.
26:30Round five.

29:26It's time to vote off the weakest link.
29:28As we come towards the business end,
29:33there's not many wrong answers.
29:35So, I suspect they'll all have
29:37noticed Scott's mistake as well as
29:40forgetting to bank.
29:42Voting's over.
29:44It's now time to reveal who you
29:46think is the weakest link.
29:51Scott.
29:55Scott.
29:58Zoe, what I would describe your style
30:09as is, you know, when somebody's
30:11thinking about going onto the dance
30:12floor, like the music's starting to
30:14hit them, but they're not fully
30:15committed.
30:16It's sort of like this.
30:17Yeah, man.
30:18That sums me up.
30:19It sums me up.
30:20But the thing is, it gets harder and
30:21harder because you're sending home one
30:23of your mates.
30:24Yeah, but it was before.
30:25You didn't care about that.
30:25Yeah.
30:26You didn't care.
30:26I don't care about the others.
30:28But also, I've voted for Scott quite a
30:30few times now, and I don't want people
30:32to think that this is some kind of
30:33breakfast beef.
30:34It is.
30:35It's not.
30:35Because I love him.
30:36I owe him a lot.
30:37Well, I mean, it hadn't occurred to me,
30:38but now you've said it, it's clearly what it is.
30:41Why did you vote for Scott?
30:43Because he was the only person...
30:44Because I took over the breakfast show.
30:45Yeah.
30:51Because it's true.
30:52Michael, you voted for Scott as well?
30:57I did.
30:58I'm sorry to say, mate.
30:59Did you have any qualms about doing that?
31:01None whatsoever.
31:02Fair enough.
31:03Because, you know, there were a few wrong ones in there.
31:07It's my time to go.
31:08Is this as far as you expected to get?
31:11Way further.
31:12I didn't get this far last time I played the weakest link.
31:15So, and look at them.
31:17They're all very bright people.
31:19So now I'm happy.
31:20Well, look, Scott, you've been amazing.
31:22But I'm afraid to say that with three votes,
31:25you are the weakest link.
31:26Goodbye.
31:28Love you.
31:29Goodbye.
31:31I thought we were family.
31:32I hope this doesn't dent the Radio 2 family love too much.
31:36Saddest walk I've ever seen.
31:37We do a lot together.
31:38We spend a lot of time with each other.
