Episode synopsis

In this episode the contestants must bring in their finest fruit sculpture, make a plastic bag as heavy as possible, put a blue marble in a tin can, save Olli's family, and draw the monster described by the Taskmaster.

Title context

'Fruit of the sea' was how Trond Fausa Aurvåg described shells, in an attempt to justify having once again brought in an owl lamp as a prize for the 'Your finest fruit sculpture' task.

Alternate Titles

On Sweden's SVT Play streaming platform, this episode is titled 'Rädda familjen', which translates as 'Save the family'. This is a reference to the 'Save Olli's family' task. [Translator credit: DANI]
