Season synopsis
The third series of Kongen Befaler, consisting of just eight episodes, was originally broadcast on discovery+ and TVNorge between February and March 2021.
The fresh contestants were: Egil Hegerberg, Erik Follestad Johansen, Jenny Skavlan, Linn Skåber, and Trond Fausa Aurvåg.
Notes
- According to show producer Bjørn Håvard Mittet, of Nordisk Banijay, it was only possible to produce eight episodes of this season due to the Covid-19 pandemic. As Discovery had commissioned 20 episodes of the show for 2021, this meant that an additional two episodes had to be produced for season 4, instead.
