Dundee's strongest link

Norma Stewart, sales ledger manager in the cash office beat off the wrath of Anne Robinson and the other contestants to win the cash prize on the BBC quiz show - The Weakest Link.

Norma answered a tough final question on angles to clinch the final jackpot of £3,360. She said: "It was nerve wracking but good fun. It's amazingly hard to think on your feet."

On Anne Robinson, she said: "She's not as serious as she looks. She didn't speak to us before the show but gave me a hug of congratulation afterwards and had a laugh with all the contestants."

The special themed edition on "jobs you love to hate" included a dentist, an estate agent and a traffic policeman. The BBC told Norma to say she was a student debt collector and when asked at the end how she would spend her money she said: "I think I'll make a donation to the student hardship fund."

Norma plans to use the rest of her prize money to go on holiday to Australia with her husband Derek.
