A SOAP edition of The Weakest Link is set to air on tonight’s Children In Need.

Romesh Ranganatha­n will have four famous contestant­s for the special. And to make it extra competitiv­e they’re all from different soaps. They are Max Bowden from

EastEnders, Corrie’s Antony Cotton and Emmerdale star Chris Bisson. Completing the line-up is Kirsty-Leigh Porter from Hollyoaks.

They’re all taking part to raise muchneeded cash for Children In Need.

A show insider said: “It’s the ultimate battle of the soaps. Contestant­s always feel the pressure on The Weakest Link, but this edition will be even more competitiv­e. “They’re each representi­ng their soap, so there’s a lot at stake.”

Children In Need bosses reckon the special will be must-see TV and they are hoping it will help boost donations during the three-hour fundraiser.

The Weakest Link was revived for Children In Need in 2017. Since then it has returned for a full series.

Romesh said: “It’s a fun show and the response has been amazing.”
