Episode synopsis
In this episode the contestants must bring in something which looks like food but isn't food, fill a bathtub with water from a box, build a house of cards, change their appearance in a lift, and slide bar orders to the Taskmaster.
Title context
'Weatherstripping liquorice' was one of the many delicacies created by Calle Hellevang-Larsen for the 'Something which looks like food but isn't food' prize task.
Alternate Titles
- On Sweden's SVT Play streaming platform, this episode is titled 'Åka hiss i korthus', which translates as 'Ride the lift in a house of cards'. This is a reference to both the 'Change your appearance in a lift' and 'Build the tallest house of cards' tasks. [Translator credit: DANI]
