Summary[]
The task was presented on a bucket containing eggs. The contestants had to land the most egg in the frying pan, located on a stack of oil barrels in the middle of the room below the balcony. They were not allowed to throw any egg or leave the balcony and could only use the contents of one box to help land their egg.
Performance[]
Daisy May Cooper: Daisy tied her eggs to a bunch of balloons so she could get Alex to blow the leaf blower at the balloons whilst she used string to position it to the frying pan. Although she managed to get her eggs to land on the oil barrel containing the frying pan, it was later revealed that no egg actually landed in the frying pan. Despite this, Greg awarded Daisy 1 point for her effort.
Johnny Vegas: Johnny inflated lots of helium balloons but when attempting to attach it to the balloon carrying his egg, he let go of the big bundle that floated to the ceiling. He ended up sending an egg attached to 3 balloons towards the frying pan that just went straight down. As he failed to land any egg, he received 0 points.
Katherine Parkinson: Katherine attached two tubes with a bandage and attempted to roll the eggs through the tube to the frying pan. As she failed to land any egg, she received 0 points.
Mawaan Rizwan: Mawaan initially tried to fill an egg with helium, then put an egg in a balloon which instantly exploded. He finally tried to send the last egg in a basket attached to helium balloons, but ended up breaking the egg, then tried to send just the shell the same way but failed. As he failed to land any egg, he received 0 points.
Richard Herring: Richard initially tried to make a long tube to send the eggs through but it broke and broke the eggs. He then tried to lower the broken eggs into the frying pan with a long stick he had fashioned, but that broke, before finally trying to a fly a paper airplane made from the task with a bit of egg on it to the frying pan. As he failed to land any egg, he received 0 points.
