In this live studio task, the contestants must fool the Taskmaster into thinking that they are standing in a tray of ice water when they are not, or that they are not standing in the ice water when they actually are.
In this festive version of the task, the wooden boxes concealing the ice baths are decorated to resemble Christmas presents, and the ropes attached to the fronts of the boxes are striped in red and white, resembling Christmas candy canes.
