Task brief

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

Guess what words Olli is saying by reading his lips.

You must wear your headphones while Olli is speaking.

He will indicate the number of words he is saying in each round.

Write down what you think he is saying on your board.

Whoever is the furthest away from the correct answer, as judged by Atle, is eliminated, and must sit on the bench.

Last one remaining wins.

Task notes

  • The contestants are all seated side-by-side along the front of the stage, with their backs to the audience.
  • Atle is seated on his throne in front of them, and Olli is seated in a tennis umpire’s chair directly behind him.
  • Each contestant is equipped with a chalkboard, some chalk, and a set of headphones.
  • In each round, the contestants wear their headphones while Olli speaks a word or phrase. He indicates the number of words in the phrase with his fingers.
  • This task is sort of a reversal of the ‘Silently mouth a fact to the Taskmaster’ task.
