No hands!
It holds!
It's gonna be delicious!
Holy shit.
Welcome to Stormester –
– where the first and perhaps most important question of the night is:
Do we really have to waste our time once again listening to me, the taskmaster, blathering on and on –
– instead of getting on with the show?
Please welcome the five fantastic fever brains crowning the bodies of:
Martin Johannes Larsen.
Eva Jin.
Sebastian Klein.
Julie Rudbæk.
And Simon "not Jul" Talbot.
I feel so comfortable sitting here with my faithful assistant Mark Le Fêvre.
After all, Le Fêvre is French and means:
Why is Simon Talbot sitting in Simon Jul's chair?
No, but I can explain why. Simon Jul has fallen ill.
– No... – That's how it goes.
I see why you're happy, as Simon Jul has found a replacement in the form of Simon Talbot.
You will act as a kind of advocate for Simon Jul.
You'll actually have to defend Simon's solutions.
I wish you the best of luck.
This reminds me of American legal dramas when they say:
"If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed for you."
Good luck with him. How will you approach the task, Simon?
I intend to harvest as many points for Team Simon as possible.
I'm just glad that Simon Emil Ammitzbøll couldn't come. [Former Danish politician]
I am super happy about that.
In fact we have replacements ready for all of you.
Sebastian Klein, you needn't worry about your health as the musician Sebastian is ready to take your place. [Old Bob Dylan-esque singer]
And I would so like to hear the original version of "Hodja fra Pjort" [song].
So if you have to cancel sometime, he'll be here.
Well I did contact Martin Krasnik and you wouldn't have even noticed. [Journalist who looks like Sebastian Klein]
Which contestant has brought a prize which they would like to win themselves -
- because it would be such a shame to do without it?
It's the man who looks like Martin Krasnik, Sebastian Klein.
Yes, I have chosen a shirt. A very special shirt.
It's a shirt which I have included in every single TV show -
- I have done for the past 20 years. Which is a lot.
Is it a little oversized?
That depends on who you are!
You look super fashionable, Martin. Comedy Kanye over there.
But when I sat down, I realised something about these pants: They're short as hell!
Now we know what's at stake, especially for Sebastian Klein.
How do we begin?
It is with tasks as it is with bald men: the more, the better.
So we start out with 11 of them. That is, tasks.
What's this?
– Fruit and vegetables? – I see you went to the greengrocer.
I don't know what's in there.
– Can I pick anything? – This is the main task.
– "Solve the 11 tasks the fastest." – "Once you have used..."
"Once you have used a fruit or vegetable ..."
"To solve a task, you may not use it for another.."
– "Fastest to solve ... – "11 tasks wins."
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven.
"Time starts now."
– Well ... – There are 11 tasks.
Ah, motherfucker, man!
Let's cut that out.
Do any rules here require special attention, Mark?
Yes, you may not reuse a piece of fruit or vegetable.
If you don't think ahead, you might end up in a rather awkward situation.
So I guess we start out with the thoughtless approach.
Yes.
Not yet .... We'll get to you, Eva.
But we'll start with some that make it look astoundingly easy:
Martin and Sebastian.
– Now would you look at that. – Congrats you two.
– "Hide a fruit or vegetable." – So we have to hide one.
– Is it hidden? – No.
"Blow a fruit or vegetable off the table."
"Get a whole fruit or vegetable through the ring."
Swoop!
"Divide a fruit or vegetable into exactly ten parts."
– And ten. – Ten. Piece of cake!
"Throw a fruit or vegetable into the bucket."
– There it was. – "Put a fruit or vegetable."
Good night. Now it's put to sleep. ['put' also means 'tuck into bed']
"Colour the entire surface of a fruit or vegetable."
"Kick a fruit or vegetable into the goal."
"Eat an entire fruit or vegetable."
"Identify a fruit or vegetable."
– Watermelon – This is a coconut.
"Balance a fruit or vegetable on the rod."
– Gracias, amigo. – There. That was damn easy.
You two make it look, as you put it, "damn easy".
Even though you open one task at a time instead of getting an overview.
That might have been smarter, but...
You didn't create an overview at all and you did that? Impressive.
Yes, but the thing is... If you have to kick a fruit into a net -
- it seems obvious to use the watermelon.
If you have to blow a vegetable, it seems obvious to pick the pea.
And obviously you should "put" a parsnip!
Obviously!
Mark, would you quickly repeat the 11 tasks?
"Hide a fruit. Blow a fruit off the table. Get a fruit through the ring."
"Split a fruit into ten parts. Throw a fruit in the bucket. Put a fruit."
"Color a fruit. Kick a fruit. Eat a fruit. Identify a fruit."
"Balance a fruit."
Were some of the tasks more difficult than others?
– It was all relatively easy. – Did you feel that way too, Sebastian?
Well I had to squash that thing to get it through the ring.
There's a reason I ask.
When you throw a broccoli at the bucket and it hits the bucket –
- you almost sigh in complete resignation: "Finally."
That's how I always feel when I toss broccoli.
I know you're a sportsman.
So I think this clip will annoy you a bit.
"Throw a fruit or vegetable into the bucket."
Close.
Shit, I'm so off. Same spot all three.
Ah, come on!
This is absolutely ridiculous! This isn't happening.
It's in!
– Mark, hold on to the bucket. – How much does a pineapple weigh?
Not much really.
Mum!
There it was.
– You cut that very well. – Martin managed it quite easily.
How did the first two contestants solve the 11 tasks?
You can breathe a sigh of relief, Martin. You spent 10 minutes and 16 seconds.
Is that fast? That doesn't sound fast.
Sebastian, you were actually keeping the same pace.
You solved ten of the tasks in 9 minutes and 32 seconds.
But you then spent 9 minutes and 26 seconds on –
– throwing a fruit or vegetable into the bucket.
That gives you a total time of 18 minutes and 58 seconds.
– That's a good time. – Mark, who's next?
As you said, you're allowed to make a plan. You can open all tasks.
So you don't end up having to eat ... a whole pumpkin.
That is, of course, a strictly hypothetical example.
But before we get that far, and no one can know...
First we have to see Simon Jul.
We will also see Julie Rudbæk who doesn't plan anything.
And yet the solutions are surprisingly similar.
Exciting.
– Okay, has time started? – Yes, 12 seconds have passed.
I like an overview.
Radishes, coconut. Putting, hiding.
I start by blowing the pea.
Very well.
I'll do it in florets.
No, that was bad.
Julie, come on. Yes!
I'll have to find a use for this shit.
"Balance a fruit or vegetable on the rod."
Hot damn.
Yes!
Yeah!
"Color the entire surface of a fruit or vegetable." Oh no!
Ta-da!
Two, four, six, eight, ten.
That's two parts.
You have something... Nevermind.
"Eat a whole fruit or vegetable." There must be one more vegetable.
– It was in the basket when we started. – There it is!
– I'm gonna eat this. – Can you blow the pumpkin?
I can do that with a tool I find.
It works!
Even the wind is helping us, Mark.
Done.
Those were two successful solutions.
Simon Talbot, this is your first time defending Simon Jul.
Are you satisfied with your client's approach?
It's a ten out of ten. Five points.
How do you feel about him actually being better than your solutions?
– Do you think he is? – Absolutely!
Whatever gives points.
Simon is a foody, he knows a lot about cooking.
That's why he first wants an overview.
From there, he moves towards a perfect solution.
I see no holes in that approach. He's not an idiot.
Can we get the times of Julie and Simon Jul?
Julie took 17 minutes and 44 seconds.
And your client did it in 17 minutes and ... 36 seconds.
No! Okay. Yes Yes.
Just because I couldn't throw a piece of broccoli...!
Simon! Simon! Simon!
Julie and Simon "Jul" Talbot have banished Sebastian to fourth place –
- but no one has been faster than Martin. Only Eva Jin is left.
Remember we said how much it would suck to eat a whole pumpkin?
– But also an experience. – Then let's have that experience.
"Hide a fruit or a vegetable." This one is pretty easy to hide.
Did you see that? "Kick a fruit or vegetable into the goal."
Ouch, damn it.
No!
– No! – So close.
Yes!
Well done.
"Identify a fruit or a vegetable."
Broccoli.
Oh no. Oh no!
"Balance a fruit on the rod." Let's take this one.
Boom.
"Divide a fruit or vegetable into exactly ten parts."
One.
Two.
Nine.
"Eat a whole fruit or vegetable."
"Put a fruit..." So say goodnight to it?
I'll do that at home while cooking this one.
There you are.
Oops.
Oh my god.
– Are you alright? – No.
I love a good pumpkin soup and I hope -
- that I can have your recipe so I never have to make it.
– It doesn't look very ... – Well the first bite was quite delicious.
It was actually quite good.
We only had what was in the fridge, and the recipe calls for cream.
So I grabbed the canned whipped cream…
And spiced it up with some apple juice.
So your thinking is: Eating an entire pumpkin is rather daunting.
Let me add a bunch more things.
I don't want to appear clever, but you could've just said:
"Do you guys remember the pea I hid in my stomach?"
"I actually ate that, so now I'm hiding this pumpkin."
– I would've accepted that. – Come on Lasse!
At first glance, this looks like a one-point solution.
I can first reveal that you spent one hour and 52 minutes.
Ouch, ouch! Shut up, that's long.
Shut up!
But regarding that one point ... You didn't finish your meal.
No, no, no! Hey! I'm standing up now.
You can't do that to me!
Now sit down again.
I have to interrupt here. We're dealing with a desperate young woman here!
And if I recall correctly, Lasse is really into that kind of thing.
So perhaps...
You could give a single point for that. I think that's reasonable.
I'm not sure I quite agree.
Regardless of the participant's gender or age, as taskmaster I can always say:
"You really fought, you really made an effort."
"There was bravery, tenacity and creativity, so I give a point."
But I won't.
– You're so mean. – You're disqualified.
I sit down again. Do we stand up or sit down?
It doesn't matter.
That brings us naturally to this. Mark, what's the final score?
So there are zero points for Eva.
Two points for Sebastian.
And then three points for you, Julie.
Four points for Simon and his client.
And five points for Martin, who thus brings himself in front.
It looks promising. You can use the shirt to lengthen your pants.
My shins are a little cold.
Mark, what's the next task?
We're now in the sixth season and let me say ... things are good.
This next task gives you an insight into the kind of budget we have on the show.
Hello.
– Red and white checkered. – Good day, Julie.
– Are we going on a date? – It's something about you and me.
– Should we order ... – You want coffee?
– It's nice... – You have pretty hair.
– Money. – I got money.
You know I love money.
"Spend 200 kr. [£23] on something uncharacteristic."
Uncharacteristic?
"200 kr. spent on the most uncharacteristic thing wins."
Yes! Finally a task where I really feel safe.
– "You have..." – "Eight weeks."
"Time starts now."
– You you have 200 kr. for me? – 200 kr. in bottle deposits.
What would be uncharacteristic of you?
I have eight weeks to spend 200 kr. on something uncharacteristic?
What would I never buy?
If I bought 200 kr. worth of coriander. I'd never eat that.
How much lingerie can you get for 200 kr.?
I'll have to go home and think about that.
The old trick.
See you. Thanks for a great date. You need to practice your small talk.
– You too. – No.
I'm looking for an uncharacteristic way to spend 200 kr.
But I also want to be entertained. Who spent the money first?
Let's start by seeing how Simon Jul spent 200 kr.
I was literally just given this.
Simon Jul has spent 200 kr. on canned tuna.
And I haven't talked to him, so I guess...
So what my client has spent this on...
It's perfectly uncharacteristic of Simon -
- because he is very obsessed with food.
He cares about good quality –
– and canned tuna is more of a Simon Talbot product.
I had canned tuna earlier today.
So I love it. But it's the most uncharacteristic thing -
– I could ever imagine Simon Jul having.
He loves good quality and is not a living trash can like me.
Well argued. You should take some of them home.
– You can keep them. – Yes, I'll take them home.
Canned tuna for 200 kr. Who has spent the next 200 kr.?
You were flirting with coriander, Martin, but you ended up with something else.
No I did not.
Lasse, we both love wine. You love wine.
– I like wine. – Very much so. Me too.
It's so nice to sit alone and drink a good, whole bottle of wine.
Or sharing it.
But sometimes you have wine that is really uncharacteristic.
I actually want to play a little clip. Take it away.
– This is Preben. – Preben N.?
I saw that you reviewed a Chianti Classico. You write:
"It's rather uncharacteristic, heavy and a little warm in style."
Would you describe it as a very uncharacteristic wine?
Quite uncharacteristic. A Chianti should be fresh.
But this has a sweet aftertaste so the mouth is not properly cleaned.
– So that's very uncharacteristic of a Chianti. – Indeed.
And you know a lot about wine, right Preben?
I do. I've been tasting Chianti for twenty-some years.
– VildMedVin, this is Peter. – Hi, you're speaking to Martin.
– You have a Chianti Classico for 189 kr. – Yes, that's correct.
I only have 200 kr. Can we make that an 11 kr. shipping fee?
– Can you do that? – Yes. No problem.
– Let's say "cheers". – Cheers.
Shit, this is so uncharacteristic!
– I mean .... – It's so damn uncharacteristic, which is a shame.
But I know Preben is right as he has reviewed them for 20 years.
I haven't been drinking Chianti for 20 years.
30?
This is an uncharacteristic Chianti.
I also want to commend you for grabbing the phone yourself –
– and haggling your way to a slightly lower shipping fee.
Those were two ways to spend 200 kr. in an uncharacteristic way.
Mark, who are we going to next?
Let's see how Julie has spent 200 kr.
– Yes ... Are you sure? – Reasonably so.
Okay. Well ...
I have thrown myself into spending 200 kr on something –
- I never ever thought I would have to spend money on.
It will be interesting.
I'm sure it will be an experience for me.
A little expensive, but now I'm doing it.
And that's really uncharacteristic for me.
I bought myself a ticket for Mark Le Fêvre's new show.
Many contestants have tried to schmooze their way to five points -
- but very rarely have they gone through the assistant.
Mark, who else has spent 200 kr uncharacteristically?
His name is Sebastian Klein.
This was a difficult task.
I don't really believe in anything. I'm of the opinion –
– that there is far less between Heaven and Earth than we think.
I have split the 200 kr –
- into several pools and donated them to charity.
So I gave 50 kr to something called Paranormal Association.
They're some sort of ghostbusters. I didn't even know this existed in Denmark!
– I also gave 50 kr to ... – The Astrological Association, I see.
And of course the Clairvoyance Association also needed my support.
I divided the last 50 kr into five equal portions.
That's ten kroner each.
I have donated 10 kr to each of the world religions:
Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Judaism and Christianity.
That was a convincing argument –
– but 200 kr are yet to be spent uncharacteristically.
– We have come to you, Eva. – Yes. And ...
This task was not that difficult for me.
Because I suffer a lot from the problem –
– that I find it incredibly difficult to spoil myself.
I always put others first –
– and just forget about myself.
This probably isn't an issue for you guys.
No.
You're drinking from the wrong side of the glass.
It's so uncharacteristic.
If others want to say something, feel free to interrupt me.
But I clearly need an Eva day.
So I'm diving into a Japanese tradition –
– by spending 200 kr on a boyfriend.
This is us planning our holiday to Thailand.
And here ...
The moment that my boyfriend opens up about his childhood.
And here we visit his family.
This is me giving birth to our little children.
But then one day takes the next ...
Here he comes home drunk again.
And yesterday this happened.
I find him with a pair of scissors I tried to hide from him.
So we're in a bit of a dark period right now.
And on top of the zero points it's clear that...
I'm in a really bad situation ...
... if I don't get five points now.
I wanted to see an uncharacteristic way of spending 200 kr.
This is not out of pity, Eva Jin, but you get five points.
You have to convince me.
Which was achieved by Sebastian's defense speech. Four points.
Three points for Simon "Jul" Talbot, two for Martin.
Julie, let me put it like this. I've seen you...
I've never been to a Mark Le Fêvre's show.
And that might be uncharacteristic. But I've noticed how you –
– look at each other and talk to each other in the first episodes.
And it doesn't surprise me that you find an excuse to see Mark again.
I would even call it characteristic of Julie that she thinks:
What a shame, this task forces me to see Mark at some point.
And that alone is why. One point. And congratulations on that.
Mark, from big sums to something else large, right?
We're going for something even bigger, and that's not a penis joke.
Hulubulu. Mark Le Fêvre, where are you? [Reference to 80s kids show]
Hi, Mark. I borrowed your bike.
– What do I do? – Step inside.
His home is tiny!
Well furnished. Open floor plan.
– You've been remodelling. – Yes I have.
– It turned out really well, Mark. – Let's see.
– "Draw a large bike." – "Largest bike wins."
– "You have 20 minutes." – "Time starts ... now!"
I like drawing so this is a good task for me.
Largest bike wins. It doesn't matter how good the drawing is.
It only has to be big and recognizable as a bicycle.
– Where do we start? – We have to see both Sebastian and Julie.
Sebastian uses a grass canvas and works with spray paint.
Julie works more metaphorically and uses the motif as a tool -
- in collaboration with an assistant who could really use a new bike.
Are you good at cycling? Do you want to go on a bike ride?
I need this and a hell of a lot of paint.
This is perfect. Handle bars here. And then we go down this street.
It's very meta to ride around on a bike to make a bike.
Think about it.
The bike starts from here.
– Are you keeping up, Mark? – I'm right behind you.
– Are you the kind of guy that watches the Tour de France? – Sometimes.
This is a very nice racing bike.
I don't think it gets much longer. Yellow handlebars.
Bernstorffvænget. Are you there, Mark?
Yes, I'm coming!
The handlebar bends a little.
Let's go make the other wheel.
There. That's a bike. Front view.
– Where's the frame? Tyres? – Red frame, red tyres.
The frame is sort of here. You see it right from the front.
I've never been good with navigation.
– Time's up, Julie! – Are you there?
I accept Julie's GPS solution as a drawing.
But I need to see how the bike turned out.
– Sure. – Do we have to?
It actually wasn't that bad.
Can I get a clean picture of the bike?
– Is that the baggage rack? – Yes, Eva.
It's actually better than I thought.
Can we see Sebastian's attempt at a very large bike?
– I could have biked that route. – That would've been easier.
If that's accepted as a bike. I wouldn't have known that was a bike.
I want it to look enough like a bike –
– that people who aren't looking for a bike think: That's a bike.
And unfortunately I don't. They're large, but they are not bikes.
Mark, who do we see next?
Eva, you yourself have expressed that you really like to draw.
Here comes the biggest bike that I could draw.
I see the illusion you want to create. But you enter the illusion yourself.
Suddenly there's a woman with very long shins in the background.
What if a giant had destroyed the village? Would it be better then?
– Markedly. – Then that's what happened.
It would've been better. It still may be better.
This is the first solution I accept. You have drawn a bicycle.
We are condemned.
We've been screwed. It's not fair.
Mark, hit me with a huge bike.
– We will see Simon Jul, Simon Talbot. – I am so ready.
There we have Suez, coming down to the Arabian Peninsula.
1:12,000,000. That's a common scale.
Boom. Carbon fiber bike with chopper handlebars. And a fox tail.
There are 13,326 km from front wheel to rear wheel.
– That's a damn big bike. – And a big fox with that tail.
It's the Fenrir wolf.
It's just... Sometimes the evidence speaks for itself.
So you just had to write the scale -
- and then you can get away with anything. Jesus Christ!
I think it's pissing on all episodes of Stormester!
The entire concept going right in the trash.
This is ... I'm so indignant.
Also on behalf of the audience. You have to sit and watch it.
Sebastian, I'm following the party line and I say: Deal with it. [Reference to PM Mette Frederiksen]
Deal with it.
I just don't quite understand how that's a huge bike.
It's a small bike with a globe behind it.
"Draw a large bike. Largest bike wins."
It doesn't say: "Largest drawing wins."
If someone makes a snarky comment:
"Should I just add ...?" Yes, you just need a size ratio.
You draw a bicycle -
- then you clarify which scale the bike is in...
I like how you're getting the praise now.
I just sent a thought ... Simon isn't dead.
He's just sick. But well done, Simon.
– If you're up there. – Where are you? He's in Vesterbro.
We're only missing Martin's bike.
Sebastian, before the task begins, I would like to say: Calm down.
This is gonna be bad.
– Mark, we're drawing a bike. – Yes we are. How big?
It's gotta be big. Earth is big. It is.
You mean the globe? Yes, one would think so.
There's something even bigger.
We could drop by the Milky Way.
– The galaxy? – Yes, it's pretty big.
Shut up, it's beautiful out here. Let me just call Mark.
It's Mark.
Is that you, Martin? You're coming through incredibly well.
– I'm just hanging out on the Milky Way. – You're there already?
Yeah, it only took an hour. I'm thinking of drawing a bike.
– That sounds like a huge bike. – Bye! It's gonna be beautiful.
Shut up, how beautiful it is!
Wow.
I thought a bike the size of Earth was something.
But...?
Now shut up, and the level of detail! We know the color of the frame.
Put on an American football helmet and on into space.
– It was extremely expensive, too. – Lord have mercy!
Sebastian ...
Very ambitious, this.
I wasn't expecting to see a drawing of such a big bike.
Impressive that you managed to solve it.
You explained yourself how you did it. How long did it take you to get to the Milky Way?
An hour, as he said.
How long did you have to complete the task?
20 minutes.
No...!
You say so yourself.
I cut that myself. So I knew this was coming.
You say, "It took me an hour to get here."
It really is a shame.
You should've taken a faster starship.
But there is ... I don't even want to begin. Sebastian, you found peace.
I was convinced I'd win this one.
You didn't complete the task within the allotted time. You're disqualified.
I accept only two solutions.
Imagine that the smallest bike I thought would qualify -
- as the largest, becomes the second largest bike of all, Eva.
Simon "Jul" Talbot produced the biggest bike, Eva the second biggest.
Three disqualifications. It's five and four points.
Condemned.
Mark, where are we going?
As far as I know, the next James Bond actor is yet to be found.
Keep that in mind if you're looking for someone to play a spy.
What the heck is that?
Is that Mark sitting there?
What the hell?
It's Mark.
– What have you done to him? – What is Mark doing?
Mark, can you hear me? Take off your hat if you can hear me.
– There is usually an envelope. – There's no task.
I'll find Mark.
Oops.
"Give Mark a five-word hidden instruction."
"Mark must carry out your instruction."
"You may not be seen or heard communicating with Mark."
"Best hidden five-word instruction wins."
– "You have 20 minutes." – "Time starts now."
Okay.
A five-word instruction is to be conveyed to Mark.
It doesn't matter whether the five of you are seen or heard.
What matters is whether the communication is seen or heard.
Where do we begin?
Instead of revealing that, let's roll the tape.
Then you might be able to figure out who is delivering the hidden message.
A mystery, I love it!
– It's Mark. – This is Lasse Rimmer.
Hi Lasse. You have a slightly strange voice.
Rip your newspaper in half!
Yes ... Now, or what?
Do it!
Thats it.
You make a good Lasse Rimmer.
Rip your newspaper in half!
– That's how I talk sometimes. – I knew that.
The instructions are: Rip your newspaper in half.
Says Lasse Rimmer.
This is getting silly.
The problem is, we may not see or hear you deliver the instructions.
Now I'm switching to Funen dialect, because I'm coming back to my roots.
Sometimes your little, stupid piss brain shuts down completely.
It may not work especially for you -
- but it completely failed at that time.
Don't step in it. Next contestant.
Mark, who's the next instruction deliverer?
We're going to you, Eva Jin.
[Give Eva a hidden instruction]
"Buy tickets to Mark's show."
Wow.
Don't do that, Eva. You can get one for free here.
Here you go.
How humiliating.
You can see me all the way through the clip.
I'm just over...
I felt so fast when I ran out.
You can clearly see me. I thought: I'll make it before the camera catches me.
Your instruction was executed.
The instruction was to give you a secret instruction.
I love this spy inspired task.
Therefore, I'd like to see the next secret carrier.
We're going to Julie Rudbæk, who is an award-winning actress.
When acting on film, it's very important not to overact.
Exactly...sometimes. It depends on what you're in.
We will do a discreet newspaper exchange.
"Take ..."
"... all ..."
"... your ..."
"... clothes ..."
"... off."
– I think that's marvelous. – That was great.
– Cooperation. Team work. – He takes off his clothes and you watch.
– Lasse, I wasn't there. – There is nothing between you two.
It was a man who looks after the stadium who just passed by.
And by and by and by as he takes off his clothes.
"Let's see what this leaf blower can make flap."
"That'll be interesting."
This was a fine solution made better by how much worse the two first solutions were.
And while it's hardly impressive, it's the best solution I've seen.
Now stop it.
Who is responsible for the fourth solution?
In film and television, they say: Never work with children or animals.
But Sebastian Klein doesn't give a fuck.
Come on.
Who's a good boy.
Hello?
No, it won't be until later. I'd think an hour and a half.
Around that time.
No, I can't make that.
Then we'll have to do it tomorrow, right?
Bye Bye. Talk to you later.
Come on, Bruno.
Telepathy is one of the causes to which I did not donate –
– because it really exists.
I happen to have telepathic abilities and planted the words in Mark's mind.
The rules just say I'm not supposed to see you communicating with Mark.
I don't see that. And even though I still see how you did it –
– it's the best solution so far, Sebastian.
Then you don't have to complain.
The things that I said earlier were probably wrong of me.
I actually think this is a really good show.
Let's move on and cut out my previous arguments.
We still need Simon Jul/Talbot.
I really look forward to having explained how this happened.
It's him!
What happened?
– You have to explain. – Simon, how did you do it?
This falls under attorney/client confidentiality –
– which I cannot break.
– Shall we see what happened? – Yes, I believe many would like to know:
How was the instruction conveyed to Mark?
I made a little clip that might help a bit.
Skillfully solved. I don't know why I'm pointing at you.
I'm ready to award points. I give one point to Martin.
I have to.
Two points to Eva for a solution that I was able to see through after all.
Three points for Julie, four for Sebastian, five for Simon "Jul" Talbot.
But there is one last chance to change the points standings.
And it's happening right now. The final task. Here on stage. Immediately.
As always, we will all familiarize ourselves with the task –
– by having a participant read it out loud. Mark, who's reading tonight?
I had imagined that Sebastian Klein should have the honour.
That would be an exquisite pleasure.
"Take turns saying the name of a real, famous person."
"Your famous person's name must start with the last letter –
– in the name of the last mentioned known person."
"You cannot say a name that has already been said."
"If the taskmaster doesn't know the celebrity you name, you're out."
"Last contestant left wins."
We have visitors from our house horn orchestre. Welcome back, gentlemen.
The house orchestra is here because there must be a certain rhythm in the competition.
If you miss your musical window –
– then you're out of the competition and have to sit down.
Should you and I try? The first name is free.
Then I start.
Gentlemen?
Lasse Rimmer.
Ronald Reagan.
Was it the first letter of the last name?
Isn't it the last letter?
I see furrowed brows from Martin. Is there anything you want to ask?
I'll probably be sitting down soon anyway.
Do you also think they're short? A little too short?
Are they?
– Is the task understood? – Gentlemen?
Peter Gade. [Badminton world champion]
Eva Jin.
Niels Hausgaard. [Old singer/comedian]
Diana Ross.
Simon Talbot.
No! Stop.
We were looking for a famous person starting with T, Martin.
Finally we will see your ankles again. Lovely!
– Eva Jin opens the next round. – Can I choose anything?
No, we're still locked on a famous person whose name starts with T.
Gentlemen, please.
Thomas Helmig. [Singer from Aarhus]
Grethe Sønck. [Golden age actress]
Kirsten Lehfeldt. [Actress]
Tim Christensen. [Singer/songwriter]
Stop!
Sorry, Eva.
We're looking for a name beginning with an N.
Sebastian Klein is on the hook for a celebrity whom I know. Gentlemen, Please.
Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen. [Jazz bassist]
– Niels Hausgaard. – No! Stop.
You can't name a person who was already mentioned!
And Niels Hausgaard was named by Sebastian.
Unfortunately, Julie.
Damn.
A famous person whose name begins with N. Simon Talbot is up next. Gentlemen, start the music.
Nik. [From hip-hop duo "Nik & Jay"]
Calvin Klein ... No, shit.
No!
Simon Talbot/Jul ...
Five points!
I can almost work it out, but who's tonight's winner, Mark?
This is absolutely crazy, but congratulations, you've won, Simon.
Take the shirt to Simon Jul.
Yes!
Nice!
What a triumphant start for our substitute.
On behalf of Simon Jul/Talbot, there is only left to say -
– what a lame man once whispered in my ear after a police interrogation:
He said, "Thank you for tonight."
