Task brief

The brief for the task is as follows:

Give Alex the five-word instruction in the most spy-like way.

You must not be seen or heard communicating with Alex in any way.

Most subtly but successfully communicated instruction wins.

You have 20 minutes, in which Alex must carry out your instruction.

Your time starts now.

Attempts

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

  • David posed as a 'white van man' with a delivery for Alex. On the back of the van, he had written "Take your trousers down now".
  • Ed sent a decoy with a note to Alex, as he sprinted across an open field with an instruction telling Alex to "Stand up and shout loud".
  • Jo threw lemons in front of Alex, and left a cup on the bench with a message telling Alex to "Get me loads of sweets".
  • Katy sat next to Alex on the bench, reading a newspaper, with a message on the inside of the paper saying "Alex take off your shoes".
  • Rose put a fake rock over her head and then ineffectively tried to sneak over to Alex. She then produced a piece of paper through a slit in the rock with the message "Life in danger, run away".
