Page "The Weakest Link (UK game show)" Paragraph 10

Originally, The Weakest Link: Champions League, which featured eight players who had won games on the daytime edition, battled off once again for £ 20, 000 ( with a money tree of £ 50 -£ 100 -£ 200 -£ 500 -£ 1, 000 -£ 1, 500 -£ 2, 000 -£ 2, 500 ; with the sixth round being a triple round for £ 7, 500 ).

The set was slightly altered, with electronic podiums being installed, as well as the adding of a studio audience.

The Champions format was not successful, and instead new players competed for the money.

A few months later, the contestants were cut down to seven, as well as the time from 45 minutes to 30, however, the prize money remained the same ( with a money tree of £ 50 -£ 100 -£ 250 -£ 1, 000 -£ 1, 750 -£ 2, 500 ; the seventh round being a double round for £ 10, 000 ).
