Task brief

The brief for the task is as follows:

Catch the most socks and put them in your laundry basket.

You must stare straight forward throughout the task.

You must not touch any underpants.

You must not move your laundry basket, and if you drop a sock, you can’t then pick it up.

Every time you touch some underpants, you lose a sock.

Most socks wins.

Task notes

  • The contestants are seated side-by-side on the stage in front of screens, wearing wide-brimmed hats.
  • Each contestant has a laundry basket in front of them.
  • On cue, socks and pants are dropped by members of the production crew from the tops of the screens, and the contestants must decide whether or not to catch them and place them in their baskets.
  • It is ruled that it only counts if they touch the underpants with their hands, so any caught in their clothing and then discarded do not count.
