Episode synopsis
In this episode, the contestants must bring in something that smells different than it tastes, hit something as far as possible with a baguette, say as many words without an ‘E’ as possible, build a bridge between some scales (or try to prevent their team from doing so), and retrieve and sip a glass of wine using toilet paper.
Title context
Ingar Helge Gimle says that tea “tastes like ants”, during the ‘Something that smells different than it tastes’ prize task.
Taskmaster Intro
Welcome to Kongen Befaler here in the esteemed Drammen theatre, the programme where esteem is otherwise an absent concept. Except maybe the occasional bust in gold... of me.
Assistant Intro
And with me I have Finnish stage art’s lost son, because he ended up here with us. An Olli Wermskog, in flesh and blood!
