Everyone throws beanbags at the island

Emma is the first to step into the throwing tower, but detours to take a look at it from the front first, prompting Alex to ask “Could you not see it from—oh, you hadn’t zoomed out?” (referencing her manual zoom technique from the ‘Ring the bell’ task). Emma’s first and only thrown beanbag in the game does actually land on the edge of the island, but then bounces off the edge, so she is eliminated first.

Andy throws second, and easily lands his beanbag in an empty space on one corner of the island. Babatunde throws his beanbag third, and also finds a gap between the cans on one side of the island, though his beanbag does graze one of them.

Rosie steps up next, but is barely able to see over the top of the wall, and her thrown beanbag knocks down a small stack of cans, so she is eliminated second. Jack steps up to the tower last in the first round, while Rosie asks him whether he understands the task. Jack’s beanbag knocks over a single can, so he is eliminated third.

With just Andy and Babatunde through to round two of the game, Alex adds another layer to the wall, forcing Andy to stand on tip-toes to see over the top. After licking his finger and holding it up in the air as if to test the direction of the wind, Andy successfully lands both of his beanbags in a safe space on the edge of the island.

Babatunde steps up to the tower and finds that he is also forced to stand on tip-toes to look over the top. Alex reminds Babatunde of the presence of the peep-hole, lower down in the wall but, after checking that out, Babatunde responds with “What am I gonna do with that?”. Babatunde’s first thrown beanbag lands safely in a gap on the island, but then his second knocks over a small stack of cans, eliminating him from the game.

Having all been knocked out in the first round, Emma, Rosie and Jack all earn 3 points. Babatunde earns 4 points for making it to round two, while Andy wins the task and earns 5 points.
