Heikoin lenkki is the Finnish version of the international franchise The Weakest Link, which debuted on BBC Two in August 2000.[1] It was hosted by journalist Kirsi Salo. It premiered in 2002, but after three years, the show was axed due to the host's pregnancy. It was shown on the MTV3 network on Fridays at 8:35 pm.

The show was brought back in 2017 with new host Riku Nieminen.[2]

Originally, nine contestants played for a prize of €15,000, but that was changed to eight players competing for €18,000.
