Attempts

Here's a brief description of the contestants' attempts. Someone's probably working on writing up some additional detail, though!

  • Iain brought in a 'going-out kit' in a hamper, featuring glowsticks and alcohol. After arguing with Paul about the prizes (Paul, as a qualified GP, stated he would prefer Joe's BMX, and said Iain's was the worst as it characterised doctors as binge-drinkers, rather than functioning alcoholics), Iain received 1 point.
  • Joe brought in a BMX, and claimed that BMX stood for 'Bicycle, My X-cellent bicycle'.
  • Lou brought in a herb garden and a bottle of whiskey.
  • Paul brought in hat with a connecting beard, so a doctor would not have to be bothered in public. After arguing with Iain about the prizes, stating that as a qualified doctor he would prefer the BMX, he received 1 point.
  • Sian brought in a badge with a star system on it for doctors, like at McDonald's, with her fake badge saying "I'm fab at jabs" and featuring 5 stars.
