FIRST LOOK: THE WEAKEST LINK TO LAUNCH WITH CHRISTMAS SPECIAL

The Weakest Link is back on BBC One this Christmas, with a brand new host.

BAFTA award winning comedian Romesh Ranganathan will bring his own twist to one of the world’s most iconic quizzes.

Romesh is joined by 8 celebrities, each with their own connection to Christmas who will have to work as a team to try to win a maximum prize of £50,000 for their chosen charity.

The celebrities on the Christmas special are Kym Marsh, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, Rev Kate Bottley, Christopher Biggins, Gemma Collins, Olly Smith, Bonnie Langford and Danny John-Jules.

Each round one player will be voted The Weakest Link by their fellow contestants and will leave with nothing. After a final head to head one celebrity will be crowned The Strongest Link and will take the prize.
