Isto não se faz ao faraó

Episode synopsis

In this episode, the contestants must bring in the most glorious thing that sounds like ‘Vasco Palmeirim’ when mumbled, transfer water between two fishbowls, find the item that makes a sound when a button is pressed, construct the longest sentence possible from an assortment of letter tiles, time-travel, put on a wetsuit during a Zoom call, and make and throw paper aeroplanes into receptacles. The guest contestant is Lourenço Ortigão.

Assistant Intro

Next to me, a man who only understood a little while ago how TV broadcasting works, despite working in this industry for decades. The other day, he asked me, “How do people fit in there, in that tiny box?”. Your applause for Nuno Markl!

Taskmaster's Sign-off

Play around. Have fun. Get away from the internet.
Transfer water. Suck the tube. But don’t bite the chocolate.
Stay in frame while you put on your wetsuit.
Press the button, and find the duck. What a brute!
Travel to the future, or to when you were a baby.
And don’t forget, Darth Vader once did food delivery.
Palt Springs? Where’s that?
And Pharaoh Tetumsis? What’s that, madié?
