For this week's shopping task, housemates will be pairing up as they become pantomime horses. 'Horsemates' are then put to the test throughout three rounds to find the ultimate Pantomime Horse of the Year.
Two housemates will become trainers, and will be responsible for breaking the Horsemates in. The four pantomime horses will take part in a series of horsey challenges, with the losing horse being eliminated each time. The winning pair of Horsemates after all events have been completed will tomorrow be given the opportunity to win up to £500 towards this week’s shopping budget.
Training
To begin breaking the horses in, the trainers will be putting the Horsemates through their paces in a number of training exercises. This will include trotting, cantering, sidestepping, moonwalking and playing Hoofing Around (a game in which horses place their hooves in specific positions on a board according to a spinning wheel). No Horsemates will be eliminated playing Hoofing Around.
Round One: Bleep Test
All four pantomime horses will take part in a bleep test in the garden. The slowest horse will be eliminated and sent to Pastures New where they will become jockeys.
Round Two: A Question of Horse
The three remaining pantomime horses will take part in a quiz. The quiz has three rounds.
1)Observation Round
Horsemates will watch a short film 'Ben & Ife: A Love Story', which they then have to answer questions about.
2)Horse or Housemate?
Horsemates will each be shown extreme close up images on the plasma screen. They must determine whether it is part of a picture of a horse, or a picture of a Housemate.
3)Hooves on Buzzers
In a horse-themed general knowledge quiz, it's hooves on buzzers as they compete to score points.
At the end of the quiz, the Horsemate that has the lowest number of points will be sent to Pastures New. These two Horsemates will also become jockeys.
The four Horsemates inside the two remaining pantomime horses will spend the night in the luxurious Foal Hole. They will then go on to compete in a final trial tomorrow, to determine which pair will become the Pantomime Horse of the Year.
What do you think of this week's shopping task? Do you think housemates will take it seriously or will they be too busy horsing around?
