    The whole 3 items task is one of the overall best in the shows history. Nish with the movie star walk up. Bob's amazing throw, then trying to play it cool and failing, then struggling to mount the table. Aislings eating the worst possible choice immediately after reading the word "eat" the silent motionlessness stare at the jelly as it slid down the pole. Mark being the only one to not need the table to balance something on the pole. Nish's complete meltdown. Followed by the incredibly stylish jelly throw once he'd already lost the task. And Sally's incredibly risky and brilliant jelly throw. Also Alex's cheeky fish pun while looking right down the barrel of the camera. Also the fact that Mark, aisling and Bob were all very close in how long it took them to complete the task.
