Weakest Link

Was that Helen Krasner on today's Weakest Link (BBC1) ??

It didn't give her surname and I've never met her in person, (just read her articles), but how many helicopter instructors / aviation writers called Helen can there be.

Good on her if it was!

Always good to see a bit more of people like her who challenge public stereotypes!

Here's the show, and at 01:15, Helen appears.

It's definitely Helen, although she doesn't quite live in Ashbourne.

Looking very good, if I might say so!

I can even more absolutely categorically confirm that it was Helen.

Yes, she did look good, didn't she? Pity she wasn't so good at answering the questions though.

Well, I think it was great

Like Anne said, shame to lose her early in the show, but good to see a bit more of Helen than just the thumbnail photo in FTN!

If I manage to tick half as many boxes over the rest of my career, I'll be well chuffed with myself!

I think it was a bit mean that Helen got no credit for banking and that is just as much a tactic of the game.

So now the burning question ... is Anne Robinson going to book a trial lesson?

Cheers
