Answer:

This phrase appeared in Thomas Reid’s “The Essays on the Intellectual Powers of Man,” for the first time in1786:

“In every chain of reasoning, the evidence of the last conclusion can be no greater than that of the weakest link of the chain, whatever may be the strength of the rest.”

The full phrase “a chain is no stronger than its weakest link” was first printed in Cornhill Magazine in 1868.

Anne Robinson hosted a show in the United Kingdom called ‘The Weakest Link’ which had an Indian version hosted by Neena Gupta. It seems to be the most popular reference to this proverb. The lack of knowledge and banking at the correct time causes people to lose money on this show and hence the person responsible is termed as the weakest link. The show humiliates the weakest link and cuts them off.
