Summary[]
The task was presented next to a potato. The contestants had to build the highest bridge over the middle of the red green and balance a potato on it. If anything touched the Red Green, the contestants had to put everything back to where they found it, tut and go back to the drawing board.
Performance[]
Frankie Boyle & Ivo Graham: Frankie gathered stuff whilst Ivo attempted to clean the drawing board before Frankie decided to make a bridge between the dome and the caravan. They then decided to climb a ladder each and hold a pole containing the potato over the red green. Their bridge was 2.81 metres, receiving 5 points each.
Jenny Eclair, Kiell Smith-Bynoe & Mae Martin: Jenny, Kiell and Mae initially planned to stack barrels on top of each, but Mae touched the red green so they had to restart. After another barrel touched the red green, they decided to make a duct tape bridge between two poles held up by Mae and Kiell whilst Jenny sang at the potato. Their bridge was 2.4 metres, receiving 3 points each.
