Attempts

Here's a description of the contestants' attempts. Someone's probably working on collecting some images to add later!

  • Guy calls his friend, Jules, after 30 seconds, and then takes a “celebratory bite” of a wax banana. He is mocked for not thinking to instead call his brother, Paul Williams, who is sitting across the table from him. He earns second place.
  • Brynley calls her brother, Callum, after 1 minute and 30 seconds. He doesn’t seem keen to chat, so she lets him go. He also doesn’t reciprocate her declaration of sibling love towards him. She earns fourth place.
  • Angella calls her mother, whom she says she technically “went to school with” because she'd walked her to school each day. She reaches her after 1 minute and 21 seconds. There is some debate over whether they really went to school together, but everyone agrees that her mother is very sweet, so Angella attempts to use this to her advantage, by emotionally blackmailing Jeremy. Angella earns third place.
  • Madeleine reaches an unidentified individual on the phone after just 22 seconds, and earns first place.
  • Leigh attempts to call several people, but only reaches their voicemail. He finally manages to speak to someone after 12 minutes and 4 seconds. In the studio, Jeremy points out that Leigh had attended primary school in the Andes, and Leigh admits he’d had to resort to trying to call people from secondary school instead. He earns last place, but Jeremy awards him a bonus point with the justification that someone of Leigh's advanced age is at a disadvantage. Leigh therefore earns 2 points in total.
