00:00Tonight, eight famous faces, including Chesney Hawkes,
00:03take on my questions and each other.
00:05But who'll be the one and only left standing at the end?
00:08Sarah Green, probably.
00:09This is The Weakest Link.
00:20Behind me are eight celebrities
00:22who are each trying to win up to £50,000 for charity.
00:24But to do that, they'll have to work together.
00:27Seven will leave with nothing,
00:28as round by round, we lose the player, voted The Weakest Link.
00:32But they have all promised me they'll stay in touch.

01:59and you lose all of the money in that chain.
02:02But if you press your button and say bank,
02:05before the question is asked, the money is safe,
02:07and you begin a new chain from scratch.

06:34you can't have normal conversation either.
06:36No, none.
06:36Yeah.
06:37Why did you vote for Mina?
06:38It was the question

06:50Because I felt like
06:51you were nervous
06:51even during your intro.
06:53Really?
06:53Gosh.
06:53But I think, listen,
06:53I've got faith in you.
06:55Well, you've really helped
06:56boost my confidence now.
06:58Yeah, I know.
06:59I'll be honest with you,
06:59I was just saying that
07:00to be nice.
07:00I don't know
07:01how you're going to get on.
07:03Why did you vote for Mina?
07:05I just, it stuck in my mind
07:07really the same as
07:08the same as Emmanuel
07:09has just said.
07:10Yeah, but the difference
07:10between you and Emmanuel,
07:11if you don't mind me saying,
07:12is you look very sad
07:14and you put so sorry.
07:15You smiled
07:17as you voted for Mina.
07:18Yeah.
07:18I didn't mean to.

07:20where you laugh
07:21even though it's not funny.

07:24Yeah.
07:24We don't look like you do.
07:25I do.
07:25You don't mind me saying.

07:27you're laughing now
07:28as you talk about
07:28how bad you feel about it.
07:30I feel really, really bad.
07:31Right, okay.
07:32Mina, how do you feel
07:33about how this has gone down?
07:36You know, when you mention
07:37the WhatsApp group chat afterwards,
07:39I'm not in it.
07:40Okay.
07:41I think that's fair.
07:42Yeah.
07:43Does it feel more or less
07:43cutthroat than traitors?
07:45This feels personal.
07:46Well, it certainly was personal
07:47for Emanuel.
07:48Yeah, he, I mean,
07:49I'm not surprised
07:50with Emanuel, to be honest.
07:51Well, listen, I'm really sorry.
07:53And I'm genuinely,
07:54I'm really sorry.
07:55Why are you smiling?
07:57No, but...
07:57I can see you smiling.
08:00Whatever you've done
08:01has infected Mina.
08:02Let me try again.

13:16the first one is
13:16when I declared you
13:17were the strongest link,
13:18I said,
13:19you're the strongest link
13:19and you went,
13:20what?
13:21You know,
13:21that sort of undermined
13:22it a little bit.

13:24error of...
13:25Classic error.

13:27for your answer
13:28to the question.

14:08I am not convinced
14:09that I was the weakest link
14:10in that round
14:11because I answered
14:12something right
14:13and because I banked
14:15some money.

25:19I did.
25:20You gave me
25:21two incorrect answers.
25:22I know.
25:22Then you just started
25:23muttering to yourself.
25:24I was throwing numbers
25:25out there.
25:25But then what happened
25:26is because that went
25:27so badly,
25:28all of your correct answers
25:29you seemed really nervous
25:30about.
25:31I've never seen somebody
25:32be so scared
25:33to say the word

25:36I just needed
25:37to breathe.
25:38Yes.
25:38In fact,

25:41should have told me

25:42Can I just say
25:43generally going forward
25:44we would like you
25:44to breathe.
25:47Well,
25:47listen,

25:57to you.

25:59I'm sorry to say,
26:00Chesney,
26:00that with three votes,
26:02you are the weakest link.
26:03Goodbye.
26:10So if I come back
26:11again to the weakest link,
26:12I think what I've learned
26:13is I need to breathe.
26:14Maybe some yoga
26:15before I come out.

29:55when I asked you
29:56about the
29:57tricky-dicky question,
29:58it's like
29:59your brain
30:00went through
30:00every single

30:02before you wrote it.
30:02Yes,
30:03one's called
30:04Dickie,
30:04one must be
30:05called Richard,
30:06and then, yeah,
30:06I was quite glad
30:07I reached for that
30:08because I thought
30:08if I'm going to pause
30:09any more time on that,
30:10I'm getting...
30:10Well, if you'd have
30:11spent that amount of time

30:32but you had to pick someone
30:33and I just remember
30:33percussion dryer.

30:35about a percussion dryer?
30:37I think there is
30:38such a thing as a...
30:40Percussion dryer?
30:40Percussion dryer, yeah.
30:42Listen,
30:42I think it's a great invention.
30:43I think this is an episode
30:44of Dragon's Den
30:45rather than...
30:46It's exactly what I think.

34:52This was tactical.
34:53I thought if we do get
34:54into the final two,
34:56what's the best chance
34:57of having the most
34:59correct answers?
35:00So you're voting
35:01for Jamie because

35:37To be fair,
35:38the weakest link
35:38did shove the three
35:39of us in diversity
35:40corner over here.

36:13the pleasure of doing
36:15the walk of shame
