Weekday general knowledge quiz. Nine contestants play as a team to win up to £10,000, but only one takes the prize money home. - Zábava
Watching this in February 2020… What a great game
Twenty one people seem to
@@Bobo-ox7fj hey
Small blooper
at 33:02 when the announcer tells us Lee is the weakest link, you can see Carol's arm at the next podium, but she was voted off the round before lol.
They showed Lee's recording from the previous rounds in that round.
The editors could've cropped that out but they didn't.
I saw that just right now haha while watching
"What C is a reptile that has the ability to change it's skin colour in response to it's environment?"
"Iguana"
...I've had to stifle my laughter!!!!
Apparently he was absolutely horrible (i'm not talking about his bad playing, i'm talking about him)
The answer was Chameleon, obviously.
@@hakc97again source?
@@jackblack570 private conversation with one of the contestants here who said he hated the entire day
@@jackblack570 "Anne was a Grade A cow. It was probably an act, but she didn't let it slip, even when the cameras weren't rolling. Half the contestants were lovely and half had a personality bypass. The old guy we all voted off first? Nothing to do with his bad playing... it was him. He was horrible. The night before at the hotel he got very drunk, was very standoffish, got into a row with the hotel staff the day of the filming and made us all late. The woman with the glasses from the bank? Sour as could be. It was fun until we got to the last few rounds and I realised that I might actually be in line to win it, and it suddenly became serious. £3000 is a lot of money, and even more 11 years ago to someone who'd just left home! No one's given me a hard time over being on it, but the day itself put me into a bit of a low. I'm not scared of being in front of cameras at all... it was the mood of the event I didn't enjoy."
This show is so great...I recommend it to anyone right now because it’s lighthearted trivia that provides consistency in these turbulent times
When this episode first aired was shortly after 9/11 in the United States, so it was sort of the same kind of time, where everyone was afraid. It was comic relief.
The winner was consistent and deserving. I like Carol but it was her time after that round.
Anne pronounced Santiago WRONG! There was no T sound for Santiago she clearly said San Diego which is why he was confused!😢🙄
Happens fairly regularly from what I've seen, perhaps not always incorrect pronunciations but certainly less common.
“What do you do when you’re not feeling smug” 🤣🤣🤣
Try not to laugh challenge... and I failed.
“ She’s not gonna be banking here anymore“ 😂😂😂😂
I was hoping she'd say "you're not da vina"
Perfect round 1!
To be fair, Ian may have messed up when he said iguana instead of chameleon, but he did bank the money beforehand so the team didn't lose any money at all.
The capital of Chile is SANTIAGO no SAN DIEGO. That is a city of CALIFORNIA.
She said San Diego, it was bad pronunciation by her !!
I knew it(!) I could've sworn San Diego was a US city.
I thought that's what I heard, since Anne is provided with the answer I don't think it's her fault
@@User-3O3 it is in California
its her pronunciation, her spanish is bad
Was actually glad when Philip was voted off
*Voting each round:*
R1 - Ian (chameleon question)
R2 - Mike (at least was the Weakest Link)
R3 - Lee (The Archies "Sugar Sugar") / Andrew (Santiago as Chile's capital)
R4 - Carol (equinox question)
R5 - Lee (said Laos is in South America, then Asia 2nd largest continent) / Andrew (failed Malta's capital Valletta)
R6 - Lee (√225 and many questions wrong)
R7 - Andrew (9² as 981?)
At least pretty Rachael won 👏🏼🏆
Lee 24 Telecommunications (1977)
Carol 57 Nurse (1944)
Ian 60 Retired (1941)
Davina 37 Banker (1964)
Andrew 40 Electrical Engineer (1961)
Rachael 26 Alumni Officer (1975)
Phillip 31 Actor and Tour Guide (1970)
Sue 33 Airline Agent (1968)
Mike 55 Senior Building Surveyor (1946)
You assumed that everyone already had their birthday in 2001.
This was an extremely intelligent team. Especially the final 4. But very shocking than andrew, an engineer, can't solve 9^2..
Rachael was so much fun to watch glad she won
She is cute actually 🤭
your comment is a spoiler to others
@@ronaldjbsantos1980
Cute and Smart = A Winner
She deffo was a deserving winner
"ANNIE"
ANNIE, are you ok? So, ANNIE are you ok?
Are you ok, ANNIE?
I love it when contestants get told they are the weakest link.
Every time Carol said ANNIE I expected ANNE to go and throttle her!
San Diego? Is she for real? It's Santiago, dear.
"You are the weakest link, goodbye!"
33:23 wow
😡L-l-l-eee *hiss* LOL 😆
Yaaaaas, gurl Philip, sassy, Philip
They voted off Philip because he was clever
Thank you! 😉
In the fourth round, Anne loudly asked Carol who she voted for in rounds 1, 2 and 3. And how Lee, standing next to her voted identically. She failed to mention that Phillip and Sue had done the exact same thing.
Lee and the Hudson River through Minneapolis. YIKES.
Sooooo did Ian send the invoice to Rachel for that 600£. 😂
I felt bad when Lee was voted off. Young man should have stayed till the end.
16:19 San Diego is the capital of what South American country? Nope, that's Santiago. San Diego is in California.
:Whose last brain cell died of loneliness?" LOL
well i got 11 right answers out the whole darn thing. i didn't have a piece of paper to write on so I counted on my fingers
4:16
-What C...
-Iguana.
*Cguana?!*
😂😂
Philip and lee were so smug I was so glad when they got voted off
Skip directly to TWL at 1:12
04:16 "What C is a reptile that has the ability to change it's skin colour in response to it's environment?"
"Iguana"
San Diego?? San Diego??? LOL
feels bad for ian
They were being nice to Carol. (A Yank from New Jersey 2 weeks post 9/11?). Missing the Moon Landing in 1969 was inexcusable. Vietnam ended in 1975.
16:18 She said SAN DIEGO when she should have said SANTIAGO. Her error.
Philip is pretty smart i say, Go Philip!!
Rachel too
Thank you! 😉
Was anyone else distracted out of their minds by the Oxfordshire woman who kept saying, "Annie, this...Annie, that...don't know, Annie...oh, Annie...Annie...but, Annie...Annie...Annie"
🙄
Yes I was wondering why she kept calling her Annie... stoooop
he wasnt chairman at the time?
i know from other episodes the answer reads mao tsedong (spelling negotiable) and that's why she paused
Why does Carol keep calling her Annie??
She's a bit mental, as most people from New Jersey are.
San Diego is not the capital of Chile. Santiago is the capital of Chile. Also, she said “what V is the Hindu god of...” but then the correct answer is Brahma. Anne, you need to learn to enunciate already.
Philip would have won if Rachael voted fairly
Rachel was smart and would be Runner up
Didn't I know it!
I really wanted the two of them to face off. The final four were really smart but the two of them were more consistent
@@LoLo-ue5xe Rachel was better than me throughout the show, but I knew every one of the answers in the head to head! It was a strange old thing. The old man voted off at the start was pretty unpleasant and none of us had got on with him, but everyone else seemed nice. It was odd hearing a couple slagging me off! The American woman, the air hostess, the guy that came second and the middle-aged guy who got voted off were all very nice people.
@@GuildfordGhost that's too bad you were so close. Anyway that was still a spectacular performance. well done!
I feel sorry for Ian. Voted off first when he wasn't the weakest link and actually banked a decent sum of money too.
He had a really easy question. They could have finished with the 1000 much earlier if it hadnt been for him
I wonder if he annoyed them pre show
Did she say San Diego or Santiago? I would have been confused
Very happy about Philip going. Too smug. Too cocksure.
Wednesday 26th September 2001
The last episode I watched the first round they banked their 1000 pounds and each and every round after they completely unraveled
BLANCHE meaning blank. Only option was blank card. Carte Blanche. Andrew got lazy.
YAAAAAAAASSSSSS RACHAEL!!!!!!!!!!!
37:16 the most satisfying elimination
Philip is making me laugh
watching this in 2024... ah, to massage my brain with the visual feast that is the WEAKEST LINK right after the tragic incident that shaped american life forever... to be a brit, unphased, unbothered, revelling in your tea and englishness and getting ready for the next 20 years... boris johnson here we come
👏👏👏🎈🎈🎉 Rachael
Andrew realising that he got the question wrong about the capital of malta gives me some form of sympathy as a maltese person
She was brilliant
Is that litmus paper question's answer correct ?
I thought it was red not blue.
Rachael! 🏆
Seems pretty snobby to me at 19:22.
Why did I feel so bad for Ian :(
pause at 34:25
RufusConnorSketch That’s terrifying
🤣
I've only ever heard of rieslings being sweet
I don’t know the exchange rate but 10,000 pounds must be worth more American dollars than most people think
That's something like $12k
At least she was a strong player.
The question on Hinduism around the 22.47 mark...I thought she said V as well, along with the contestant, hence the answer Visnhu, and not Brahma, as was the actual answer. In fact if you replay it definitely sounds like V, not B as it was supposed to be.
I heard B
I heard V and answered vishnu as well. I was even more confused than the contestant
Clearly the first round they planned to get rid of Ian.
He said Iguana. With that clue, you wouldn't even need to be given the first letter to get Chameleon. That's the thing they're known for doing.
Yep he was apparently quite an unpleasant person. He got drunk the night before, started getting very standoffish and made everyone late
Whoaa that was a low amount
#bring back Ian
Riesling can be both dry or sweet, and i would argue most would consider it a sweet wine. That question is terrible
4:18 Ah this is an easy question I bet he regrets banking
"Iguana"
Sue keeps banking too soon!
They can be lying about their ages
Crap.
I'm Philip.
I wish I'd never done this show.
Why
@@levimumsnat1310 It really wasn't fun in the end. The hotel we were put up in the night before was cheap. The old boy at the start we all voted off was really horrible (we would have voted for him to go anyway because of how he'd been at the hotel), we had an incredibly early start, Anne Robinson was no fun at all - she absolutely blanked us when the cameras weren't on - and, although it was all fun to start with, when it got close to actually being able to win the money it got serious. That bit is down to me.
You deserved to win. Tactical voting by Rachael.
I thought "carte blanche" literally translated to white card. But there you go.
8:55 Peter Sellers
2022 🧘
San Diego is the capital of Chile? Funny, always thought that was in California
Santiago, not San Diego.
@@rinad3857 Yes, but her pronunciation was wrong, she said indeed San Diego!
@@theotzaridis It is her accent.
@@ondrastepnic Differentiating between a and e is regardless of one's accent.
The capital of California is Sacramento.
Which V is the Indian god. She said VEEEEE not BEEEEE. No wonder the woman said Vishnu. Anne has pronunciation issues, her accent.
Andrew wasn't the weakest link but they kick out him fow what?
He wasn't kicked off. He luckily made it to the final.
22:32 :)
33:23 meow, hiss
Субтитры бууудут
attenborough was a poacher and did unspeakable things to animals..
I can't believe all of these contestants are now 23 years older than they were when this episode was aired. Ridiculous.
3:27
33:23
im glad andrew didnt win
Carol with that fake accent lol
If I was to host a game show I would host either the chase like Bradley Walsh or Pointless like Alexander Armstrong
Un l.
this episodes had a lot of angry losers
Philip is boring
