Episode 2: Jesper Ole's sausages

Episode synopsis

In this episode, the contestants must put a banana in a bottle, sell their hometown to the Taskmaster, pop a balloon, make the best babushka meal, and draw objects on a rotating canvas.

Title context

The episode title is a reference to the episode prize: a pack of pork sausages brought in by Jesper Ole Feit Andersen.

Taskmaster Intro

Good evening, and welcome to Stormester which, with no modesty, is named after me, Lasse Rimmer. Five neuron-generating lumps of fat - let's just call them brains - are housed in the skulls of the five, who covet the golden trophy.

Assistant Intro

I'm sitting comfortably next to my faithful assistant, Mark le Fêvre.

Episode prize

The prize in this episode is a pack of pork sausages, brought in by self-professed sausage connoisseur, Jesper Ole Feit Andersen. These specific sausages are unique to the southern part of Harz (the northern highlands of Germany), from a town called Stolberg, and are called ‘Stolberger Lerchen’ (‘Stolberg Lark’).

Taskmaster's Sign-off

There’s an old saying, that says it all so well: If Hadi won’t come to the sausage in South Harz, the sausage must come to Hadi.

Note: This is referencing jokes made by Hadi during the prize round: that Hadi can’t do anything with pork sausage, because he’s Muslim, but also because they’re specifically made in Stolberg (which sounds like the last name of the anti-Muslim, anti-immigrant Danish politician, Inger Stojberg).
