A tango of trivia awaits as eight “Strictly Come Dancing” alumni swap sequins for strategy in a special edition of “The Weakest Link.” Forget fancy footwork; this time, it’s all about quick thinking and even quicker wit as they face Romesh Ranganathan’s famously unforgiving quizzing.
James Bye, Zara McDermott, Carlos Gu, Michelle Tsiakkas, Lauren Oakley, Kai Widdrington, Joanne Clifton, and Kelvin Fletcher are stepping onto a new kind of competitive stage, aiming to raise a hefty £50,000 for charity. But the road to riches is paved with tricky questions and the dreaded “bank.” In each round, one celebrity will be deemed the weakest link, banished from the stage, and denied the chance to “cha-cha-cha” their way to victory.
Will their “Strictly” training provide the mental agility needed to outlast their competitors? Can they handle the pressure of Ranganathan’s sharp tongue and even sharper questions? The answer, my friends, is just a waltz away.
Tune in to BBC One this Saturday, December 21 at 6:15 PM to witness this clash of “Strictly” titans. It’s likely to be more dramatic than a paso doble gone wrong.
