What is this weed, please?

I have a climbing weed that grows at about 90 mph! I try to pull it out, but it has soft stems and breaks easily. I'd really like to know its name, if anyone could help, please.

I am pretty sure you are right, Seaburngirl, I have never come across it here. Very unusual in gardens, I think, Spritz, maybe you should keep it? mm .. maybe not.

Bryonia dioica. It is a member of the cucurbitaceae . it was a medicinal plant containing glycosides, tannins and alkaloids. posionous then.
