Attempts

Here's a description of the contestants' attempts. Someone's probably working on collecting some images to add later!

  • Igor brings in a merino wool pillow, saying that his most favourite thing is to sleep, and that the plush pillow is very soft and nice to sleep on. Ivan awards him four points.
  • Ante brings in a picture of Janko Strizic (the Croatian name for Shaun the Sheep). He is unable to justify his prize at all, as this entry sparks an argument among the other contestants that Ante only brings in pictures for his prize tasks instead of actual items. Ivan agrees, laments that he can't award minus points, and instead just gives one.
  • Ana reveals that she spent much of her childhood in Bosnia keeping sheep, and that it was a common practice to spray your flock specific colours in order to keep track of them in case they mingle with other sheep. She brings in pink sheep wool coat that she says reminds her of those memories. Ivan awards her five points.
  • Lidija brings in a block of sheep's cheese. She claims that her prize pairs perfectly with the pillow that Igor brought in, as she loves to lay down and eat. Ivan declares Lidija's attempt at linking cheese and pillows to be the worst he's ever heard, as he had expected her to have brought some sort of bedding. Ivan awards her three points.
  • Enio brings in a pair of sunglasses – specifically, knock-off Ray Bans. He says that in order to clear his mind, he takes nature walks, and he once stumbled across a flock of sheep. He claims that one of the sheep were wearing the pair of sunglasses he was submitting, and that the sheep somehow knew the sunglasses were fake. Ivan awards him two points.
