Episode 1: Jesper Rönndahl guests
Episode synopsis
In this episode the contestants must catapult ducks into a paddling pool, create an impressive greeting, score as many goals as possible, unshackle themselves and eat a cupcake, choose what to do with three food items, make an accurate and inventive egg timer, and catch tomatoes in their chef's hat.
Alternate Titles
- On Finland's MTV Katsomo streaming platform, this episode is titled 'Järkeä vai ei?', which translates as 'Does it make sense or not?'. It's unclear what this might be a reference to. [Translator credit: zador]
Taskmaster Intro
A warm welcome to a wildly exciting new season of Bäst i Test. Sorry you had to wait, but now we're finally back. This is a programme that tests how intelligent and creative people resolve common and somewhat unusual problems under time pressure. 'What do you win?', you wonder. The honour of lifting my bust in gold over their head at the end of the season. A new season requires a new panel. Here they come on a string of pearls.
Assistant Intro
Most things are the same, for better or worse. I glance to the left, because here he sits, as usual, at the children's table: David Sundin!
Episode prize
The prize in this episode was some of the props and set decorations from some of the previous series, include portraits of Babben, the display tree used for episode prizes, some hula hoops of various sizes, and the contestant sofas.
Episode stats
Episode scores
There are some discrepancies between the official total scores for this episode and the points seen to be awarded during the episode. Both sets of scores, and the discrepancies between them, are displayed below.
Notes on discrepancies
- The point totals are incorrect after the sixth task in the episode, at which point David indicates that Johanna and Jesper are tied in the lead (when, according to the points awarded in the tasks shown, Jesper actually led by two points at that time).
- It appears that there may therefore have been an extra, unaired task which took place after the fifth task.
- Fortunately, these inconsistencies did not change the overall winner of the episode or series.
Guests
Unaired competition tasks shown in the bonus episode
The following tasks were included in the studio session for this episode, and points awarded were counted towards the contestants's totals, but they did not make the broadcast edit of the episode. However, they were later shown in the bonus episode, at the end of the season.
