Arrange the playdough / Separate the playdough while blindfolded
- In this two-part live studio task, the contestants are first instructed to do something with the coloured playdough balls which encourages them to mix them up in some manner (e.g. 'make an arrangement', or 'make a fine work of art').
- They are then blindfolded before the second part of the task, in which they are instructed to separate the playdough by colour.
- They may be asked to do different things with the dough of different colours (e.g. flatten balls of one colour, throw balls of another colour into a bucket, and combine balls of the third colour into one), or may just be told to return the dough to the plate of the corresponding colour.
