Performance[]
Alan Davies: Alan initially put his hands in a bowl of iced water, then tried to do the same outside, before eventually presenting a chicken that was in the fridge, claiming it had goosebumps. He got "goosebumps" in 13 minutes and 31 seconds, receiving 4 points.
Desiree Burch: Desiree started to rub ice against her skin, then got Alex to blow a fan down a tube aimed at her neck, before watching a scary video about ghosts, eventually getting goosebumps by blowing a fan against her arm. She got goosebumps in 24 minutes and 30 seconds, receiving 3 points.
Guz Khan: Guz tried rubbing ice against his skin, then tried to get Alex to scare him, before getting a chicken with an apple under its tail, claiming it was goosebumps. He gave up after 10 minutes and 30 seconds and as he didn't present real goosebumps, he received 0 points.
Morgana Robinson: Morgana initially threw ice down her top, before deciding to strip naked outside and press her body againt the dome. She got goosebumps in 2 minutes and 49 seconds, receiving 5 points.
Victoria Coren Mitchell: Victoria decided to try and draw goosebumps on her arm, but it looked more like measles than goosebumps. Despite arguing that figurative goosebumps were allowed like the Goosebumps book, and that hers were figurative goosebumps made from arts and crafts, Greg did not allow as they did not look like goosebumps. She took 58 seconds to get her goosebumps, but Greg said he would only give her points retrospectively if he saw evidence on the internet that she was known as "Old Goosebumps Arm". She received 0 points for the task.
