Episode 1: Erik "Jerka" Johansson

Episode synopsis

In the first episode of the new season, the contestants must locate a baby monitor receiver, do something impressive with one hand under a table, move a sheet of toilet paper as far as possible, find their doppelganger in the audience, experience an Icelandic delicacy, make a balloon hover, and throw shoes at towers made of toilet paper. The guest contestant is Erik "Jerka" Johansson.

Alternate Titles

• On Finland's MTV Katsomo streaming platform, this episode is titled 'Traustin paluu', which translates as 'Return of Trausti'. This is a reference to recurring guest and Icelandic fireman Trausti's appearance in the 'Invite David to taste an Icelandic delicacy' task. [Translator credit: zador]

Taskmaster Intro

Hi, and welcome to an entirely new season of Bäst i Test! Tricky tasks and confounding conundrums, to be solved against the clock. The one who handles this best will get to lift my bust of gold in the last episode. A new season also means a new, fresh panel, and here come the freshly-baked test pilots.

Assistant Intro

And still by my side, for good or ill - but mostly ill - we've got David Sundin!

Episode prize

The prize in the episode was an Icelandic starter kit, including a signed photo of Trausti the firefighter, and a supply of tinned fermented cod liver.
