Episode synopsis
In this episode, the contestants must bring in something they have but are too old for, make applied art entirely out of duct tape, persuade a celebrity to look in their shopping bag, make a lousy boat, and throw candy fish into a fishbowl while naming strong animals.
Title context
The phrase “world record” is used by Tete Lidbom, during the ‘Something you have but are too old for’ task. After Marte Stokstad submits the fact that she is still menstruating at the age of 45, Tete genuinely asks whether perhaps that might be a world record. He is quickly educated by the rest of the panel about the typical age at which the menopause occurs.
Taskmaster Intro
A warm welcome to Kongen Befaler, where five of Norway's hardest working entertainers let their natural lack of cleverness, intellect and practical sense entertain... you.
Assistant Intro
Welcome to someone who has devoted his life to cleverness, intellect, and practical sense: Olli Wermskog.
