Tasks

Prize: The thing that most makes Greg scratch his chin.

Put on the special glasses.

Be at the highest number barrel when Alex blows his whistle again. You may only move to the next barrel when you have completed the challenge at the previous barrel. If you fail a barrel challenge twice in a row, you must move back to the first barrel. If you are at an even-numbered barrel at the end of the barrel task, you are disqualified.

Label a part of your body, make a surprising noise and do something interesting with your legs. / Do these three things again and again and again in that same order.

Team Live: Say the same word at the same time. Alex will give you a category. Taking it in turns, team members must both say one word that fits the category at the same time. If both team members say the same word at the same time, they win the round. Also, you must not say word that has been said before.
