Episode synopsis

In this episode, the contestants must bring in the best thing they've ever received in the post, hold two milk bottles above two microwaves, reach the end of two lanes in the same amount of time, strike a bullseye with some paint, and paint a unicorn using a 'head brush'.

Title context

A 'long-legged lobster', is what Greg Davies likens Munya Chawawa's painted unicorn to, in the 'Paint a unicorn using your head brush' task.

Assistant Intro

And next to me, a man who dots the 'I's and crosses the 'T's. He wets the bed, he likes to please. He cries a lot, his winkle smells. And he still shoplifts to get attention. It's... little Alex Horne!
