Mastertask notes:
In this version of the task, the contestants are told exactly how much time they have. However, upon completing the task, they are set the challenge of doing it again, and improving upon their previous performance.
Task briefs
The task brief for both parts of the task are attached to a large, clear plastic pipe, suspended from the ceiling of the study. The briefs for the task are as follows:
Put the most balls up the pipe.
You must not move the pipe.
You have 3 minutes.
Your time starts now.
Improve your result from the previous task.
You have 3 new minutes.
Your time starts now.
Task notes
- The plastic pipe is open at the bottom.
- On the ground below the pipe, there is a large pile of brightly-coloured plastic balls.
- The task is presented as if it is a quick one-off, with the follow-up task not immediately revealed, unlike in most two-part tasks.
- At the end of the first part of the task, Mark asks each contestant if they thought there was anything they could have done differently during their attempts.
- The second part of the task had taken place after a short break in filming, but otherwise immediately after the first part.
