Episode 1: Witch

Episode synopsis

In this episode, the contestants must turn on a bubble machine, have a pleasant conversation in Finnish, find and present a specific shoe to Mark, describe Stormester using bunting, and avoid saying Lasse’s favourite things.

Title context

Carsten Eskelund jokingly calls Natasha Brock a "witch" during studio discussion of the ‘Guess Shoe’ task about whether her new age beliefs have been helpful to her during the tasks.

Taskmaster Intro

Good evening. Welcome to Stormester. A brand-new season. Here sit five new contestants, quivering in anticipation. One of these will be your favourite in seven weeks.

Assistant Intro

By my side, my trusty assistant, Mark le Fêvre.

Episode prize

The prize in this episode is a garlic press, purportedly owned by the late Prince Henrik, which is brought in by Mathias Helt.

Taskmaster's Sign-off

With a sizeable victory, Natasha Brock has made sure the four other contestants are under more pressure than garlic at Amalienborg. If you’ve just tuned in, you’ve missed everything. But watch along next week. Thank you and good night.

Note: Amalienborg is the official residence of the Danish royal family.
