Weakest Link (Australia) - First Group With $10,000 Round 

As an American that enjoys learning about other countries history and culture it’s very intriguing to watch all these Australian commercials 😂 👍🏼

RIP Cornelia Frances. ADVERT SKIPS 0:20 - official start of programme 11:50 - Round 2 20:27 - Round 3 32:56 - Round 5 44:35 - Round 7 53:33 - Head to Head

You were a great villainous host, Cornelia Frances. Rest in peace.

If anybody just wants to see where they bank the max, it's during the second round at 14:27 when they bank it. I suggest starting at the beginning of the second round. It's at 12:14. Just thought some people would like to know this.

I think Anne Robinson and Cornelia Frances are both great hosts and do the show credit. Interestingly both were born in Liverpool in the UK.

RIP Cornelia (7 April 1941 - 28 May 2018)

RIP Cornelia Frances. I came here to use this video as a tribute to you.

The rule explanation is much better in this version.

I used to watch the UK version and the only issue (in my opinion) was the fact the prize money was so low - looks like the Aussies has the right idea!!

These questions are so easy. It's like round 1 of the UK version every time a link leaves. How they didn't reach the target is beyond me.

The being voted off process is so brutal to watch, I just want to hug the person each time haha

RIP Cornelia Frances! A huge loss to Australian TV with the loss of an icon.

Cornelia Frances passed away today. Had to come back and revisit this show again.

actually enjoyed watching the adds from all those years back XD

Finally, a full episode of The Weakest Link Australia!

They had A PERFECT CHAIN of 9 Correct Answers in ROUND 7 & could've won the full $10,000

This must have been a VERY early episode of The Weakest Link. Jacob returned for the 'Best of The Best' edition & Brett returned for the 'Worst Looser' edition. They began editing the theme tune early on in this series too. If you listen closely, it's shorter than the original used in the UK version of The Weakest Link. I'm not sure but I believe that the only reason why there are two sets of stairs behind the team with no seats for an audience must mean that Channel 7 ran out of time to complete the set. The original 'Bank Target' sound was used in this episode. In other episodes, the 'Time Up' sting is used instead. They also did not light the ring above the set up in lights when the team banked the target like they have in later episodes. I had all but the Pilot Episode of Series One & the entire Series Two on VHS when I was younger, even recording repeats. I wish I had kept them now...I had all the Special Editions. I still remember the final episode which aired Monday April 22nd, 2002. I was devastated...

So many of these questions are so easy! I wish I was there...

Love these old ads haha a bit of nostalgia

Omg this show was the best. I was disappointed they cancelled because my dad was selected to be on it just before it finished. Cornelia Frances was really good and entertaining. Made my night

Rip Cornelia Francis I liked our version even though she was no Anne Robinson she brought some charm to this show I was sad after like one or 2 seasons of the weakest link they cancelled it I liked this show :)

Lol, I entered one of the quiz groups to try to get on his show :). Only got two questions wrong, so got close to get past the first stage. Was like 30 questions to answer on paper.

I'm not Australian but I'm here anyway

If you compare Cornelia to Anne in terms of how they look in appearance, they look very much like each other.

It was great seeing Janice make it to the final round, the “older constants” usually get voted out 1st or 2nd

rip Cornelia frances 😭 who is there in 2k19?

RIP Cornelia Frances

RIP Cornelia Frances. Best quiz show host ever. :-( :-(

Wow, that team did better than any team on the U.S. version and all but one team on the UK version (the quiz champions team being the exception). Most of it is that ALL of the questions on this version are easy and there were no hard ones thrown in to minimize the risk of multiple perfect rounds like there were on the US and UK versions.

Love the old ads. Brings back memories!

RIP Cornelia

If I still had all my VHS recordings of Australia's Weakest Link, I would have uploaded an episode where a contestant threw their voting board across the set! Another episode had a contestant singing at Cornelia as she took The Walk of Shame. There was also another furious contestant that slammed their voting board down onto the podium as he was about to take The Walk of Shame & another female was annoyed so she just dropped her voting board on the floor.

OMG this is 20 years old. I love the ads back then too. RIP Cornelia Frances.

good old primary school days. When tv used to be cool

wow, back at those days, we definitely look like our actual age! Now days we look like more than 5-10 years younger than our actual age.

That's so weird, just before I watched this about an hour ago, I looked up Cornelia and it said that she was born on 7th April 1941, and today is 7th April 2021 in the UK, meaning that she would've been 80 today if she was still alive.

30:24 THE MOLE!!! Hell yeah! That show was awesome.

I'm confused on how banking and breaking a chain and you can continue to guess makes you the strongest link.

Thank you Kevin Wilson your songs helped me get a few of these questions right

Better than England show. Less insults and more intelligent people. Handsome prize money too.

This host is exactly correct. You are not supposed to look at whom anyone else is voting for.

The way she smiles at the end of each episode, is it supposed to be a genuine smile or an evil smile?

All hosts of this show in Australia (Cornelia Frances), UK (Anne Robinson) and South Africa (Fiona Coyne) had one thing common; Red Heads. Unfortunately Cornelia and Fiona have since passed on. RIP

Am I the only one who thinks they all did good ? That's quiet a resonable amount of money.

She looks like Ann Robinson

I remembered The Weakest Link back in 2001 and ended in 2002.

Jacob appears on the Strongest Links special and makes it to the final round. Unfortunately it's unknown if he won. The episode's on RU-vid but cuts out near the end.

R.I.P. Cornelia Frances

Both Weakest Link and Dog Eat Dog did their best to be hits in Australia as they were in Britain. The next BBC game show that should come to Australia would have to be Pointless because like with the other two, it has been exported to other countries and Australia would definitely be a good one to bring that show to. Those three are pretty much the only BBC shows since 2000 that have been exported to other countries around the world.

I wonder how many people realize that "Goodbye" is short for "God be with you." Think about it for a moment. "You are the Weakest Link. God be with you". Doesn't sound as nasty does it?

There's only ever one Anne Robinson.

Cornelia: Jacob, what colour are my underwear? Jacob: White? Cornelia: That answer is incorrect, the correct answer is “Red with purple daisies!”

The host of the Australian version is Cornelia Frances

I'm sorry, but this is not a perfect round. a perfect round is when they answer 9 in a row correct and then bank the target.

I lovvvvvvved this show!

I loved this show, sale of the century & shafted at the time. I was around 6-7 years old back in 2001

This aired on Monday March 26th, 2001. (15th episode)

The Australian version sadly has too many ads. :(

28:40-28:55 Adam survived the pervious 2 vote-offs, but didn't remain undetected in this one & it was Rina who was THE WEAKEST LINK

If this was aired in Perth, who presented the news update at the end? Rick Ardon or Susannah Carr?

Wow 56,300 out of possible 100,000. 56% of total prize is the best i know so far. If you know other great performances lemme know! :)

The questions are really really easy compared with other iterations.

MORAG!

this is one of the best teams ive seen on any weakest link $56,000 dollars is over half the prize money i find the host harsh even when they get a good amount at the end of the round she is still unhappy with them unless they get the target and i thought Anne was harsh amazing show

It would have been better if the host talked to each person like Anne did on the UK version. She would talk to a particular player for about 1-2 minutes at the end of each round. The banter was the best part of the show.

Gezz,Cornelia had flair and sass. It was sad she passed a few yes ago.

In round 2 they coulda banked 10k without doing it in bits.

In this episode of Temptation from 2005, there was a contestant called Phil. I’m 90% sure he was also on an episode of The Weakest Link in mid to late 2001. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IAAGpZLkSdA.html

21:35 what were you thinking?!?!?

I love how Cornelia ends the show! "Join me on Thursday for The Weakest Link.... Goodbye" :)

The one thing I never really hear her say is: "Well, it was _________ who was the weakest link statistically, but it's the votes that count."

Why does Jacob sound exactly like siri

Man I miss the old Channel 7

The Chain offers 10x the money of the UK version

Cornelia frances passed away from breast cancer 6 years ago

Rest in peace Cornelia Frances.

Oh my god, it's Morag Bellingham!

They could banked the full $10,000 in Round 4

I’m watching this in February 2020… Very interesting to see Australian version of this show… Australian accents are much easier to understand than Americans… Only criticism is far too many adverts… However many thanks for posting

Does the weakest link usually have a live audience?

Zoran should've been voted off first, not Amanda.

Im vision impaired. What colour is the little indicator light that moves up and down and tells you how much a question is worth and also the digits on the countdown clock?

If my calculations are correct, they could've had 4 perfect rounds and an all-time record of $92,200

10:23 RIP Peter Brock. You legend.

R.I.P Corneila Frances Passed away: 28/05/18 Born: 07/04/41 Cause of death: Breast Cancer

Cornelia Francis isn't nearly as scary as I thought she was. Watching Prisoner CBH reruns recently and saw Cornelia play a lawyer. She was absolutely sunningly beautiful and very regal looking. Her acting was excellent.

Why is everyone comparing Anne to Cornelia???

The presenter of that version is cornelia francis and i like her speech for goodbye

In Australia and USA were bigger prizes than in Finland. Few years ago Finland decided to rerun the show.

How does answering correctly but not banking any money make you the weakest link? I thought the idea was to create a chain, so you don't want to necessarily bank every time its your turn.

Can someone explain about the X on the clock?

Brett 'the Hitman' Hart was robbed. Seems like Bretts gets robbed all the time...

thanks for the upload!! nice to see a full episode for once (and not the mole special) lol

New Season is coming back to Channel 9 soon

14:19 WHY not bank?!

Wow! She's an especially stoic hostess, even when the team reaches the target!

Still a better host than Magda

I work in IT and I have never heard that word being used for the physical space taken up by a computer.

This host is way better than the UK version.

You could have edited out the commercials dontcha think.
