The taskmaster has invited five of Norway's best comedians to solve a number of tasks.
Participants will, among other things, provoke tears, put on a frozen shirt and roast a waffle in a slightly different way.
Atle Antonsen and Olli Wermskog are back with a new season and brand new contestants! Amir Asgharnejad, Ida Fladen, Einar Tørnquist, Steinar Sagen and Solveig Kloppen will fight for the ultimate accolade – a gold bust by Atle Antonsen. Getting a hat on Olli's head from the furthest possible distance, eating something no one else eats and making a magic trick that amazes them is the first thing they should care about.
What's the heaviest blue thing that fits in a shoebox? How many steps is it possible to get on a pedometer in 90 seconds? Completing a puzzle and getting a watermelon to end as far away from Olli as far as possible are the tasks the King's subjects have to go through to secure important points in pursuit of the bust.
Who builds the best cabin, gets some participants to build a boat that can carry Olli, and manages to guess the right order of a selection of seemingly random things?
A big teddy bear is going to make it from start to finish, caviar is going back in the tube and contestants are going to continue filming after a classic "don't do this at home" warning. In addition, we find out which of the participants is the best at making balloon animals.
We find out who can throw a pizza in an oven from the longest possible distance, who makes the loudest sound and it should be played "guess who" in the King commands.
Which of the participants manages to guess who is Olli among a selection of other people in suits? How are they going to sort non-stop as quickly as possible? And who is most helpful to a farmer who has fallen out of his hammock?
Participants will whip three litres of cream into cream and get a sticky laundry in 20 minutes. In addition, we will find out if any of the participants have managed to create life during the season's recording.
Atle's seemingly talentless crowd attempt to sprint 100 metres and hold a balloon in the air while peeling potatoes. And how hard can it be to put a pearl in a glass? We are also served tactics and games in the studio task.
Things are intensified in the battle for the gold bust, and Atle and Olli give the participants new, silly tasks. How is it going when the season's five contestants are going to make as much foam as possible at Atle's? How far can they count in 45 seconds and who makes the best silent movie? In the studio, a football team comes to visit.
The battle for Atle's gold bust is not over and in today's episode participants will get the biggest thing through a bicycle hose, think strategically and press the second last on a button, and move as much flour as possible to a bowl on the lawn – without leaving the terrace with the flour.
Atle longs for vacation, and asks the participants to take Olli on an amazing journey. Steinar, Solveig, Einar, Ida and Amir must escape from Olli and they must make a magnificent sandwich for Atle on a low budget.
The bust has been plastered and it is ready for the final in the King's command. Before a winner is to be awarded, participants must lay as many whole eggs as they can in a basket, build the tallest tower they can in packaging and play hide-and-seek.
In the course of ten episodes Harald Eia, Janne Formoe, Kristine Grændsen, Martin Lepperød and Henrik Elvestad will solve tasks in the hope of winning the best one can get your hands on, namely a bust in gold by Atle Antonsen himself!
Participants include their best buy in the prize task. They will also give Olli the highest possible pulse, recreate a painting in the dark and move beer from the house to the caravan. The studio task offers tactics and carrots in unprecedented dimensions.
The tasks they have to go through are preparing for a task they don't know what is, spelling and eating a word with letter biscuits, as well as creating text for the theme tune.
Atle's gang of cuckolds will go through new tasks in today's program. A bathing duck is going to get in a bucket, things are going to bounce and we get the award of the coolest participant. There will be a twist on the chair toy in the studio task.
The most magnificent and shiny things should be awarded in today's prize task. Participants will find a baby monitor, attach stickers to their faces and create an amusement park attraction for Olli. In the studio assignment we get to see how good the participants are at calculating time.
For today's prize assignment, participants will bring something Martin Lepperød does not know what is. In Atle's house, a wine glass should be filled with as much weight as possible, an optical illusion should be made and a suitcase should be filled and moved.
Participants will get a nut in a hole, use their feet to do something you usually do with your hands, and send in a casting tape to Atle.
The participants are given the task of giving an eggplant an unforgettable experience, they must slide as far as possible and guess what is inside a locked suitcase.
Atle gets to see what the participants think is too "fancy" for him in the prize task.
The table is set for the final and the participants will win over Olli, mash a grape and turn off a TV from the longest possible distance. The excitement is palpable in the last task of the season, and the winner is chosen with a bang.
Atle Antonsen and Olli Wermskog are back with a wonderful group! This season's lucky selected participants are Espen Eckbo, Kristoffer Olsen, Live Nelvik, Henriette Steenstrup and Martha Leivestad.
Atle's minions must paddle a kayak, put the correct fruit in a box and remove balls from a ball bin. The studio task offers strategy and tactics.
The participants will shop in Olli's shop, make a satisfactory sound and in the studio the participants will be put to the test when Atle must guess whether they are standing or walking.
Eggs must be thrown as far as possible and music must be made without instruments. The participants have to brush up on the phenomenon of magnetism, and they have to go through the first team task of the Kongen Befaler story in the studio.
Atle's minions must create a video that will work on the internet, complete a puzzle and collect as much water as possible from a water dispenser. In the studio task, office chair curling is played!
The competition for Atle's bust is heating up! Impressive poetry is served, hedgehogs must be put in their enclosure and in the second team task of the season the participants must get eleven points as quickly as possible. The audience becomes involved in a surprising studio task.
Atle's gang bring something bad with them in tonight's prize task. The participants finally get plenty of time for a task, much to the dismay of some! They are also invited to afternoon tea together with cacti and balloons in a delightful concoction, and Atle gets out some aggression in the studio task.
The participants bring something they need on a Sunday morning and Olli gets to experience closeness. The gang has been given a task in the house to be revealed in the studio, and the third team task of the season offers a dispute. The studio task is apparently simple and tasty.
The participants must measure a distance of their choice, write the shortest word on the board and give an adult's mouth. We see how close-knit the gang has become in a task where they have to write the same thing on a board within a given category.
The winner of Atle's bust will be chosen, but before then the participants must look for a sound, build a tower in a very short time and water a rose from the farthest possible distance.
Bård Ylvisåker has invited five of Norway's best comedians to solve a number of tasks.
