Task notes
- The contestants remain seated on the stage, but a table is positioned in the middle of the stage, and they come up to it in pairs to play their rounds.
- Louis rules that each team will earn one actual episode point per round won.
- Louis’ starting cue for the rounds begins as “Trois, deux, un, au jeu!”, which rhymes, and translates as “Three, two, one, play!”. However, he quickly abandons this phrase, in favour of saying “Trois, deux, un, go!”, or just “Go!”.
