Here's a description of the contestants' attempts. Someone's probably working on collecting some images to add later!
- In the first round: Marko asks if her name is Agnes (it is not); Nikki asks if her name starts with ‘M’ (it does not); Carina asks if her name is common (it is not); Henrik asks if her name rhymes with something obscene (it does!); and so then Linnéa asks if her name is Ulla, which rhymes with ‘knulla’, meaning ‘fuck’ (it does not). In the second round: Marko panics, trying to think of names which rhyme with obscene words, but just about manages to ask if her name is Rutger (a male name) before the whistle blows (it is definitely not); Nikki asks if her name has four letters (it does not); Carina asks if the woman’s name is Britta, which rhymes with ‘fitta’, which means ‘cunt’ (which it is). Carina wins the task and three points, and everyone else receives no points.
