Taskmaster Intro

Welcome to an hour of high-octane fun entertainment in the form of Bäst i Test, with bathing ducks, flashes of genius, and brain drain in a delightful mix.

Contestant Intros

The four brave hobbits who remain together all the way to Mount Doom...

The cook herself, Linnéa Wikblad.

The loose cannon, Henrik Nyblom.

Poker face, Nikki Amini.

The character actor behind Doctor Mugg: Marko Lehtosalo.

Note: Marko plays the character Doktor Mugg in the Swedish children's television series of the same name. The series takes place in the fictitious town Dasseborg ('Outhouseburg') and revolves around toilet humour, with 'mugg' and 'dass' being colloquial terms for toilet in the Swedish language.

Back to wreak havoc with the whole panel: Marcus Berggren.

Assistant Intro

The little gentleman next to me is, by his own estimation, fully capable of working. Which is not really true, but he does his best: David Sundin.

Episode prize

The prize in this episode is a collection of ingredients and tools that will allow the contestants to replicate the roll cakes from the ‘Identify the roll cake flavours’ task, along with a cookbook containing David’s recipes for cakes.

Taskmaster's Sign-off

What have we learned? Don’t crawl while wearing a tall hat. Jam-filled Swiss rolls are preferable to brawn-filled ones. Don’t call for Rapid Corn in an emergency.
