Page "The Weakest Link (UK game show)" Paragraph 5

At the end of each round, contestants must vote one player out of the game.

Until the beginning of the next round, only the television audience knows exactly who the strongest and weakest links are statistically due to Briggs ' narration.

While the contestants work as a team when answering questions, they are at this point encouraged to be ruthless with one another.

Players often decide to vote off weaker rivals, but occasionally opt to eliminate stronger players as well.

After the revealing of the votes, the host will interrogate the players on their choice of voting, the reasons behind their choice, as well as about their background and their interests.

After interrogation, the player with the most votes is given a stern " You are the weakest link.

Goodbye!

" and must walk off the stage in what is called the " Walk of shame.

" In the event of a tie, the strongest link has the final decision about who leaves.

If they voted for a tied player, they have the option of sticking with their vote or changing it.

The strongest link usually sticks with their original choice, unless another player in the tie has voted for them.

Occasionally, the strongest link has voted for someone who is not in the tie, and so is forced to change their decision one way or the other.
