Original title:

Da må jo dette være chardonnay

Title coined by:

Bjarte Tjøstheim

Episode synopsis

In this episode, the contestants must bring in something they used to think was cool, move water from the balcony to some buckets, write down the solution word, put on a clown show, and survive a game of questions and lies.

Title context

Bjarte Tjøstheim points to one of the rows of shot-glasses, during the ‘Write down the solution word’ task, and confidently claims “Then this must be chardonnay” (it’s actually cod liver oil).

Taskmaster Intro

Welcome to Kongen Befaler, once again from the beautiful Drammen Theatre. It’s good to see you at home. It’s good to see you in the audience. It’s good to see the participants who are blossoming over there.

Assistant Intro

Last and not least, it’s good to see you, my companion and notarius, Olli Wermskog.

Taskmaster's Sign-off

I hope you find use for all the things the participants used to think was cool, and that no-one was traumatised by Aksel’s clown performance. We’ll see you at the same time next week, with more tasks and great moments. Thank you for watching.
