Re: Weakest Link Questions
Section 9 - The First Ever Celebrity Special. (We're nearly there now!)
Broadcast on Christmas Eve 2000, not long after The Weakest Link's first series ended.
Competing - Adam Woodyatt, Mel Giedroyc, Sue Perkins, Vanessa Feltz, Nicholas Parsons, Louis Theroux, Alice Beer, and two others, Charlotte and Simon, who I'd never heard of. Anyway, on with the questions...
What were the geese doing on the Sixth Day of Christmas?
What C is a large North American reindeer?
Which country first competed in the Football World Cup Finals in 1950?
In C ockney Rhyming Slang, what are your "mince pies"? (Stupid filter! Why can't it tell the difference between the words, just because the letters are in the same order as a swear word...  )
Are amphibians vertebrates or invertebrates?
As a goodwill gesture, which country has supplied the Christmas tree for Trafalgar Square since the end of World War II? (Sue said "Germany"!!!!!!  )
What C is the name given to the furry tufts of flowers carried by trees, such as willows and hazels, in the spring?
In which US state is Mount McKinley?
What is the English translation of the Gaelic word 'loch'? (Dead easy, that one! Alice said "Pond", though.)
Barramundi is a name derived from the Aboriginal word for which animal?
Which German city is famous for its "Oktoberfest" beer festival and agricultural fair?
