Episode synopsis

In this episode, the contestants must bring the most expensive thing they’ve received thanks to their celebrity status, move a pot of mulled wine to a stove, have a conversation in Finnish, do something that’s beneath Olli’s dignity, and answer a Christmas survey.

Title context

During the ‘Have a conversation in Finnish’ task, Kristoffer Olsen attempts to ask Kauko “How is Santa Claus?”, but the way he pronounces it makes it sound like he’s asking about “The Christmas Lord”.

Taskmaster Intro

Merry Christmas, and welcome to the programme that, first and foremost, is Kongen Befaler, and secondly, is a Christmas special. It's the Kongen Befaler Christmas special. We have brought in five participants who have made a Kongen Befaler comeback to fight for the Rolls-Royce of Christmas decorations: a Christmas bauble in gold, with a picture of me!

Assistant Intro

I have Santa’s little helper here with me, who uses his days off work to be here: Olli Wermskog.
