Over Christmas I noticed that 'The Weakest Link' was on rather too much, and they seemed to be some kind of special shows. One of which was an obscure acotrs from old sitcoms special, and the other seemed to be a 'pretty boys' special, with blokes that thought they were handsome, models, worked with attractive women and the like.
Seems to me that they're running out of ideas. The way things currently seem to be going they'll have the following 'specials' soon:
People with tenuious links to Richard Madeley
From a man that used to cut his hair, to his make-up artist, from old school best friend, to a man that once found his wallet on a train! It's sure to be a hoot when all of Mateley's mates see who is the weakest link! Actually, I believe they may have alreay done this one. Or was it Ainsley Harriot?
People that bought Vinnie Jones album
It didn't sell many copies, and perhaps they couldn't get people to admit to it, but it's the kind of show they'd probably do.
TV Vets
A show specialising in people that have been on TV with their hand up a cows bum. The vets from soaps as well as rubbish reality TV shows, and stick Rolf Harris in their too, for Animal Hospital.
Ventriloquists:
The contestants have to use their puppets to answer the questions. It's a shame that Rod Hull and Emu couldn't take part, but Keith Harris and Orville would be there, as well as that old bloke and Noogie Bear, or whetever it was called. Oh, and that posh bloke with Lord Charles, and maybe that bloke who rides on the bird too. I'm sure that there are loads of others, but for some reason they don't come on TV anymore. Perhaps Garry Bushell could also be a contestant and rant about the lack of 'variety shows' on TV.
I've got some better ideas than that.
Horror:
Freddy Kruger, Jason Vorhees, Michael Myers, Pinhead, Candyman, and some of the classics, Dracula, Frankensteins Monster, the Werewolf and the Mummy. The fact that many of them don't talk could be a problem, and honestly, would you dare tell any of them that they were the weakest link?
Celebrities, that have or have had a drink problem
Anne would know all about this. A show featuring Kieth Chegwin, Frank Skinner, Curly Watts from Coronation Street and a whole host of faces that have fronted the Daily Star with their drunken exploits.
Page 3 girls.
They could prove that they're not all dumb Essex girls. And when they get voted out, they have to show off their rack.
Big Cats
The lion, the tiger, the puma, the leopard, the cheetah, the lynx, and some of those lesser known big cats compete. A Doctor Doolittle type, that could talk to the animals, walk with the animals, grunt and squeak and squark with the animals, would be required to translate their answers.
Tramps:
Fired up on Special Brew, and ranting like nutters. Their answers would certainly be colourful. They might not make much money, probably only enough for a cup o' tea, but they'd be happy to do it to get out of the cold for a bit.
Sufferers of Tourette’s Syndrome.
This would possibly be the most hilarious TV show ever. The thing is, just how many contestants would simply abuse Anne, and blame their disability?

Tourettes Countdown.
30 seconds to shout as many swear words possible from the letters provided. What will be nice with this game is no one will titter when BUM or NOB is drawn by Johnny Vegas, their hunger for rude words sated by the host's clever swear word derived from COUNTDOWN.
Hosted by Roy Chubby Brown.
Co-hosted by Shaun Ryder.

Do you think if we started a petition they'd do one? (Hopes someone says yes)
A tourettes edition of any gameshow would be worth the licence fee alone.
Wankety W*nk.

Heh Tourettes Syndrome cracked me up but I have to point out Page 3 girls was done (see they ARE running out of ideas). Sadly no racks were displayed in that edition :(
I don't know if you knew this, but they already did horror at halloween, and Page 3 earlier in the year.
