Task brief

The actual text of the task brief is not known. The text below is paraphrased based on information disclosed in the episode:

One-by-one, you will step up to the microphone and tell Atle a story.

Atle’s task is to try to guess which one of you is talking.

If you can fool Atle, you move on to the next round.

If you can’t fool Atle, you’re out.

Sounds a bit too easy? Not at all. This microphone has an effect applied, so it’s not so easy to hear your voice.

In the first round, you will talk about a childhood memory.

You can choose to speak the truth or lie.

Task notes

  • The contestants are grouped at the right-hand side of the stage together, either seated on a bench, or stood behind it.
  • At the front-centre of the stage, there is a microphone on a stand. The signal from the microphone is being run through auto-tuning software, to distort the contestants’ voices.
  • Atle is seated with his back to the stage, so he can’t see what is happening, and the distorted contestant voices are played through speakers on either side of him.
  • The contestants approach the microphone and speak into it when prompted by Olli, and then Atle takes a guess at who each of them are, but doesn’t find out if he was right until the end of the round.
  • When there are just two contestants remaining, it becomes a sudden-death contest, with the contestants playing a game of ‘rock, paper, scissors’ to determine who gets to decide who goes up to the mic first. In this round, the finalists can say or do whatever they like into the microphone.
