Phil channels Teletubbies

After reading the task brief, Phil asks Antoine an incredibly pertinent question: “Are you as good a dancer as I think you are, or as good as I hope you are?”.

Phil chooses to dance to the ringtone Playtime.

He and Antoine both dance in green screen suits, and he uses the green screen to place them in front of a desert landscape.

Phil also removes his hat, meaning that all that is seen of both men are their bald heads. This makes it appear as if they are two suns in the sky above a vast desert.

Phil and Antoine’s dance consists of them walk slow circles around each other while broadly grinning the entire time, so that their desert sun heads circle one other in the sky. The footage is intercut with wider shots of the two men awkwardly changing positions on a step in front of the green screen, to achieve the effect.

After the ringtone finishes, the two hold hands and bow before going their separate ways.

In the studio, Louis calls Phil’s dance “Teletubbies on ‘shrooms”. He also awards everyone top marks for their efforts.
