Task briefs

The initial task brief is presented in the basement, alongside a Cluedo-like board of the layout of the Stormester house, as well as several cards with pictures of the weapons available to the contestants. The follow-up task brief is presented in whichever location the contestant has chosen, on a plinth, alongside their chosen weapon. The briefs for the task are as follows:

Choose a room and a weapon, and await further instructions.

Pop exactly 99 red balloons.

You may only use your weapon to pop the balloons.

When you’re done, you must yell: ‘Stop the timer, Mark’.

Fastest wins.

Your time starts now.

Task notes

  • The rooms available for the contestants to choose between are the study, the bathroom, Mark’s house (an annex building in the garden), the courtyard, and the lab.
  • The weapons available for the contestants to choose between are a stiletto-heeled shoe, a frying pan, a staple gun, a cactus, and a belt.
  • All of the rooms contain 111 balloons in total – exactly a dozen more than are required to be burst.
