23:15Craig, why did you vote for Adam?
23:17Well, now I'm questioning why I voted for Adam,
23:19but I think he got one wrong
23:21and I think it was quite a demonstration of getting it wrong.
23:24Or am I completely losing it?
23:26I think both things can be true.
23:27I mean, he got...
23:28He did get all of his questions right.
23:32OK.
23:33I don't want to worry you,
23:35but what you said was he got an answer wrong
23:38and was very demonstrative during that.
23:39And what I'm telling you is what actually happened
23:41is he got all of his questions right.
23:43So that, to me, is almost a diagnosis.
23:46There's an issue going on here.
23:47I'm sorry, Adam.
23:48Hey, you're fine.
23:50You sure, honestly?

27:42LAUGHTER

27:44Who thinks Little Nars X used to date Little Nars?
27:50One of you is about to leave with nothing.
27:53It's time to vote off The Weakest Link.
27:57Oof, that was a real struggle for Patsy.
28:00She didn't get a single question right.
28:03Adam also gave his first wrong answer of the whole game.
28:08No wonder it threw him.
28:09The voting's over.
28:11It's now time to reveal who you think is The Weakest Link.
28:19Adam.
28:22Patsy.
28:26Patsy.
28:29Patsy.
28:30Um, Craig, I asked you for a horned farm animal and you said horse.
28:42So, my question is, do you live in Narnia?
28:45No, I actually was thinking of a unicorn.
28:46I have no idea why, but I was.
28:48I mean, if you do see a unicorn, you're hallucinating.
28:51To be fair, you saw Adam gesticulating, and that didn't happen either.
28:54What made you vote for Patsy?
28:57Oh, I think it was probably the hot air balloon one,
29:02because I knew that was either going to be hydrogen or helium.
29:04But I also felt bad, because I've grown up with Patsy and her music,
29:07so, you know, there's a lot of guilt going on right now.
29:09Yeah, she's a legend and an icon, and it's difficult to vote for her.
29:12Patsy, tricky round, wasn't it?
29:14It was a bad round for me.
29:15The sword of Damocles was swinging above my head
29:19after I got through the last round.
29:21Yeah.
29:22So, I knew that my time was probably coming up.
29:25Feel free to be honest.
29:26Are there any grudges against these people?
29:28Are you kidding me?
29:29Mm, OK.
29:30None.
29:30I was just...
29:31That's a shame.
29:31I...
29:31I couldn't...
29:33I had to put a name down, so it was just...
29:35No, Adam, I was just...
29:38Me again?
29:39No.
29:40I'm dead to you.
29:41Yes.
29:42Anyway, it is what it is.
29:44It's the game.
29:46But thank you for having me.
29:47Well, Patsy, it's been amazing to have you on the show, genuinely.
29:51It's been a real honour to have you on,
29:51but I'm sorry to say...
29:53Yeah.
29:53..that with three votes, you are the weakest link.
29:56Goodbye.
29:57Goodbye.

29:59Bye-bye.
30:01Bye-bye.
30:01Bye.
30:02Bye, guys.
30:03Bye.
30:05I had to do the research, and, yes, it did pay off.
30:10I got very confident initially, and then I got terrified.
30:15But I'm a superfan of the show now,
30:18and I hope that maybe I can come back one day
30:21and stay till the end.

33:06We had every emoji.
33:08Because they all did
33:09so poorly,
33:10they might have to think

33:51from that fate,
33:52so well done.
33:53Philippa,
33:5420p, 50p.
33:57I feel like
33:58you were going to say 20
33:59and then change your mind
34:00at the last second.
34:01Yeah, the gut said 20
34:02and then I overrided
34:03that with the 50
34:04and I've been thrown out

34:06so hey.
34:07What's another one?
34:09Craig,

34:12got the last one correct
34:14and that was the only
34:15correct answer
34:16for the whole round,
34:17so I had to choose Philippa.
34:18Fair enough.
34:19So, you've all got
34:20one vote each
34:21and it very rarely happens.
34:24It's basically now

35:01really, really well.
35:02Thank you very much.
35:03And we're sorry
35:04to see you go.
35:05But I'm afraid
35:05to say that, Craig,

43:14don't be the weakest link.
43:15Goodbye.
43:17It was hard.
43:18It was a tough experience.
43:20I was lucky enough
43:22to have played
43:22in front of a lot of people
43:23playing rugby.
43:24Well, that doesn't
43:25compare to that.
43:25That was horrendous.
43:26That was really, really bad.
43:28It's going to take me
43:28a long time to come down.
43:29Like, I cannot tell you
43:31the amount of adrenaline
43:32within my body
43:33at this moment.
43:34I'm very stressed
43:35but also excited
43:35and thrilled
43:37and exhausted
43:38and tired
43:39and very happy.
43:50I'll see you next time.
