Charlie and Amanda began with a game of Snakes and Ladders before Shaun introduced the guests: HG Nelson for the Baby Boomers, Chrissie Swan for Gen X and Tim Blackwell for Gen Y.
The games played were:
- Name That Tee
- Going Somewhere Solo (Gotto Bollo Solo?!) – where solo artists had to be identified, along with the band that made them famous
- Chicken or Egg? – determining which came first, such as KFC or McDonalds
Did you know 2010 was International Deadly Snake Month? So was the 4 button options: Jules Lund, Indian Taipan, Godman’s Pitviper and The Banded Krait.
- The Baby Boomers picked The Banded Krait, which was Who Said That?
- Next was Gen X, with Chrissie choosing the Indian Taipan and playing Third Drawer Down.
- Gen Y went for the Pitviper, which was 7 Degrees.
The YourGen round was “Dust and Dirt”. Mr Spock, being attacked by a woodpecker, delivered the end game envelope – proclaiming the challenge as “Which is the Best Generation at Coming Home Late”. The teams had to complete a number of “before bed” challenges in a pitch-black house, being as quiet and quick as possible. Shaun watched, then walked in as they popped into bed.
Gen Y won the 1956 Bank Officials Association Table Tennis Trophy, donated by Shaun’s mother!
As a side note, the home viewer question was inaccurate – The Titanic was found in 1985. Yes, I’m also a Titanic nerd!
How good was Amanda’s Meryl Streep impression?
And I laughed way too much at the End Game, I think because everyone, including Shaun with his commentating, was whispering throughout
Shaun’s commentry in the end game was so funny! ‘Josh is looking down the sink for Amanda’s teeth’ I cracked up at that!
