Episode synopsis

In this episode, the contestants must bring in the worst gift, place a Brussels sprout into Olli’s mouth, identify some ice cream flavours, find all of the Santas in the study, and deliver Atle’s Christmas dinner to him.

In a thrilling live tie-breaker, the overall winner of the Christmas special is decided by two contestants throwing knobs of butter at a bowl of porridge.

Title context

The episode title is merely a reference to the fact that this is the final episode of the Christmas special.

Taskmaster Intro

Welcome to the Kongen Befaler extravagant Christmas special, decorated with everything that screams Christmas, filled with our most Christmassy participants, who are here to make up the Christmas finale, Christmas party and Christmas Eve in one and the same green, sparkling package. And as if that wasn't enough, our five participants will also, as is tradition, fight for a Christmas bauble in gold, with a picture of me!

Assistant Intro

To raise the Christmas factor even higher, I have my own house elf with me, who despite all the stress of the Christmas season, has taken the time to measure, weigh, and count this Christmas. Olli Wermskog!
