The latest episode of The Weakest Link had viewers on the edge of their seats, with many left in shock at the struggles of the celebrity contestants. Host Romesh Ranganathan had his work cut out for him as he asked a group of famous faces a series of general knowledge questions on the Party Show special, which aired on BBC on Saturday night.
The celebrities, including Scarlett Moffatt, Richie Anderson, Christine McGuinness, Louisa Lytton, David Potts, Babatunde Aleshe, Seann Walsh, and Janette Manrara, were competing to raise money for their chosen charities. However, things got off to a rocky start in the very first round as some of their answers left everyone scratching their heads.
For example, when It Takes Two host Janette Manrara was asked the classic saying, "People in glass houses shouldn't throw what?", instead of choosing between "parties" or "stones," she confused everyone by suggesting "sticks." And things only got more confusing from there.
Celebrity Big Brother winner David Potts was asked a question about a compact cassette tape player, and without skipping a beat, he confidently answered "Wikipedia." Of course, the correct answer was "Walkman," leading viewers to share their thoughts on social media. Some joked that the show should be renamed "The Thickest Link," while others were simply shocked and appalled by the contestants' lack of general knowledge.
As the game went on, it became clear that the contestants' game plans were just as baffling as their answers. They started voting off the strongest players each round, leading host Romesh to question their choices and even ask if they were okay. But in the end, it was former Gogglebox star Scarlett Moffatt who emerged victorious, despite being one of the first eliminated.
After a tense final round against Richie and facing Sudden Death, Scarlett came out on top by correctly answering a politics question. She was in disbelief as she had little confidence in her answer, which turned out to be an anagram of "Romance" and the surname of former Prime Minister David Cameron. With a burst of laughter and shock, Scarlett revealed that she would be donating the £7650 in prize money to Samaritans.
The Weakest Link: Party Special can now be streamed on BBC iPlayer, and viewers can also get in touch with the entertainment team at The Agency by emailing, calling, or visiting their Submit Stuff page if they have any celebrity stories, videos, or pictures to share.
