Dara fixates on the cactus

Here's a description of the contestant's attempt. Someone's probably working on collecting some images to illustrate it.

As Dara arrives, Alex asks him to "enter the enchanted orb". While looking around for a power supply for the bubble machine, he finds the remote control for the RC car strapped to the underside of the table, and uses it to bring the car to his feet, so he can grab the two batteries from its roofrack. He then removes the fake cactus from its pot, to see if there is anything else in there. He uses the extended tape measure to hook and retrieve the dressing gown, and finds the power pack within its pocket. He soon discovers that he requires more than just the two batteries he has, though. He returns his attention to the cactus, convinced that it is the key to solving the problem. He then tries manually blowing into the bubble machine, for some reason. He then discovers the third battery inside the small torch, so is able to fully power the bubble machine from the battery pack, switching it on after 6 minutes and 35 seconds, and earning second place. As he recalls how his wife told him to "always check under the table", it is revealed that a mains supply for the bubble machine was also available to him, if he had more carefully followed his wife's advice.
