It was Eleonara's turn to spin the wheel again as she celebrated back to back victories. As she strode over confidently to the wheel there was not a single girl there who didn't want to see her smug, superior smile wiped off her face: preferably messily!

The wheel spun for a while before landing on Choose a player to surrender 2 items of clothing. Every girl tried their very hardest to avoid catching Eleonara's gaze: as she smiled and looked every girl up and down. Maia irritated her slightly and it was tempting to get Lisa naked but the easy answer had to be.."I'll choose Danielle."

Danielle's green eyes widened briefly like a frightened gazelle. She was by no means ashamed of her body, but this was very early on in the competition. But hell, she wasn't letting this bitch drag her down! She walked to the front of the stage and with a flourish removed her Wales rugby top to reveal a sporty Speedo bikini top and threw her rugby shirt into the crowd; aimed strategically at some boys from Bangor on a stag weekend.
To rapturous applause she removed her shorts to show matching bikini bottoms. She performed an elaborate twirl, showing her glowing gym toned body and small Welsh dragon tattoo above her cute, firm butt. She kept her trainers on in the hope she might be able to out-sprint one of the barefoot girls and finally win a game. When the cameras weren't on her she flashed Eleonara an incredibly dirty look.

The Art Sort

Each girl had seven poster size paintings on one side of an assault course made of bungee cords. The course itself resembled a weird alien spider's web. The cords themselves were dewy and glistening.
"So girls, you must carry each poster across the assault course and place it next to the artist's name who created it." There were around 12 artists' names on the 10 back boards at the end of the course. "But if you carry it across and get it wrong, you have to carry it all the way back again in order to reset the back board!"
The Artists on the List and the paintings!
Vincent van Gogh
Frida Kahlo
Damien Hurst
Rembrandt
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Jackson Pollock
Jeff Koons
Salvador Dali
Claude Monet
Stella Vine
Leonardo da Vinci
Paul Gaugain
"Harsh!" muttered Stephanie out-loud. This certainly looked a hard challenge, some of the paintings were obvious: others were deeply obscure. Harrie was quietly confident, as she had worked in a gallery and arts management was among her career aspirations. But there were almost certain to be some girls who would be absolutely stumped by this task.
As the klaxon sounded almost every girl picked up Van Gogh's sunflowers (the obvious one) and made their way across the bungee assault course. The cords themselves were unpleasantly adhesive, sticking to any clothing fabric and hindering progress (as well as feeling gross!). The sporty girls Eleonara and Danielle were off to a flier, but soon their arts knowledge would be tested.

As the girls struggled crossing, the audience had a giggle as the true horror of the spider's web was revealed. The sticky bungee cords clung to the girls' clothing and they moved and shifted as contestants moved over them. Coming back across the course was almost worse than crossing it.

The girls employed various techniques for tackling the course: Hanako was lemur-like and agile, Lisa was slow and steady, Maia was bustling and unafraid to keep low to the ground. Ivona and Ali were struggling the most, the material of their jeans became insanely sticky upon contact with the fake spider silk.

The round was truly chaotic, the demonic climbing frame swaying from either side. Harrie, Eleonara and Maia were flying. Eleonara had left the modern art pictures until last but Maia and Harrie were truly showing their superior arts knowledge. Stephanie truly didn't have a clue; being sent back again and again. Skimpily-dressed cheerleader Jessica was struggling too, her face a picture of disgust. As Eleonara placed her penultimate picture in place it was summarily rejected.

This gave Harrie and Maia a chance to win, Harrie was finding the going easier as her bare feet gripped the webbing better and her slimmer frame meant that she better fitted through the gaps. As she placed her final jungle painting next to the name of Jean-Jacques Rousseau she raised her arms in triumph and relief. It was her first win and the first win for anyone other than Eleonara. Maia came in 2nd, Eleonara 3rd. Danielle and Hanako had one picture left and Ivona had two.

Lagging behind however were Ali, Stephanie and Jessica; with Lisa only just in front of them. Their lack of culture was being exposed as they kept crossing and re-crossing with the same pictures. Lisa looked to be pulling ahead as she delivered her last painting to the end board, before she suddenly stopped. She had been ensnared ever-so precariously by an extra sticky strand of bungee cord which bound itself to the base of her bikini bottoms. Any movement whatsoever risked exposing herself to the home and studio audience!

Stephanie, Jessica and Ali were now all fighting to catch up with Lisa. Ali looked to be pulling clear of the other two until she lost her footing and stumbled. Keen to gain an advantage Stephanie deliberately rocked the bungee cord, trapping the tall willowy blonde. Lisa freed herself carefully and ran over with her bad taste Princess Diana painting and placed it next to Damien Hurst. It was incorrect!

Jessica and Stephanie arrived almost simultaneously at the back boards and thoughtlessly slammed their two metallic bunny rabbits next to any name they had left. Miraculously the light indicated they were both correct!!! The skimpily dressed American cheerleader and the dumpy girl from Edinburgh both hugged with delight.

Lisa and Ali would face the head to head.

The Head to Head Charades

"So Lisa this is going to be your second head to head eh? I'm starting to think you're a sucker for punishment."
Lisa smiled, her tanned skin glossy from the fake spider dew, "Well I can only try! I think I'm very unlucky" She made a comical pout at the camera.
"..and Ali, how do you feel?"
"I'll give it my best shot." She twinkled her sparkling blue eyes "All I know is I hope Stephanie watches her back, because that move at the end was soo uncool!"
"Well may I just introduce you to two people you know very well! Kate and Kris please come onto the stage!"

Lisa and Ali both stifled giggles as two of their best friends stepped onto the stage. Lisa's friend Kate was a blonde-haired glamazon. She was at least 6 foot in heels with an F cup chest and immaculate blue eye-shadow and red lipstick. She was wearing an expensive looking white mini-dress with white high heeled shoes, showing off her truly fantastic legs. Kris was small and cute, wearing skinny jeans with messy black hair and a white vest top. She was a very liberal user of black eye-liner and had Vans trainers on her feet.

Kate and Kris took their seats above two bubbling, multicoloured, witch's cauldron's of gunge which was dug into the floor below. Kate was terrified, the TV company had definitively hidden what this show entailed. Kris looked calmer and more together.

"Now Lisa and Ali, we are going to play a very familiar party gamecharades! You have to mime the clue to a book, film or album to your partner perched above this lovely gunge tank. The person who gets the fewest will be sent on their way." remarked Gez

Lisa and Ali took their place on the spot as a partition wall came down between them and a clear plastic wall emerged behind them (noise-proofing to stop any audience hints!). There was a screen in front of the tank that only Lisa and Ali could see. The first clue popped up:
Groundhog Day..both girls almost synchronously mimed a film projector. Lisa looked a bit confused, whilst Ali immediately dropped down to her knees, scrunched her nose up like a pig and moved around the floor. Kris immediately guessed correctly.

Inevitably jets of water were now springing up around the two contestants. Ali's blonde hair and yellow t-shirt were soaked to her skin and tight jeans were looking like a bad idea. Lisa was fairing better in her trainers and bikini, but was still flapping around on the floor to get through to Kate. Exasperated she resorted to mouthing the wordsa black curtain fell right between her and Kate..and a volley of fetid pond slime hit Lisa right in her face. They didn't appreciate cheating in charades!

Kris successfully guessed Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets from Ali's broomstick, finger to lips and basilisk routine. Kate had guessed Groundhog Day but the black screen still remained as punishment. Definitely Maybe was next on the list and Ali looked Kris in the eye and gave her a very certain look and hand gesture followed by a very unsure one. Laughing, Kris squealed the answer.

As the black screen came up Lisa tried to mime a "hairy pot". Kate just looked bemused, the two girls were really communicating on different bandwidths. As Ali successfully mimed Die Hard the buzzer went
Kate's face was in her hands as she hurtled forwards, splatting in the freezing goop. The horrid mixture got everywhere, right inside her favourite red g-string and her precious Gucci shoes (she did not have the presence of mind to take them off earlier). The crowd saw her emerge splashing and spluttering from the tank, and with glee noticed her amazing silicon breasts were exposed and coated in green and brown slime. Lisa was in a state of shock but noticed the plastic wall behind her moving, it was pushing her behind the gunge pit!
Lisa tried to hammer on it but it was no use, soon the only escape would be to vault into the slime. Kate had a vengeful look on her face as she saw her friend drifting towards her, "at least Lisa was allowed a bikini" she thought. She looked down at her ruined prom dress and couldn't help but notice her bolt upright erect nipples on display and hurriedly adjusted. Lisa was going to pay for dragging her into this!

As the wall pushed up Lisa gave up, closed her eyes and leapt into the gunge tank. It was breathtakingly cold and whilst she was under she felt hands grabbing her bikini top. With malice Kate ripped off her top. Lisa emerged on top of the gunge screaming and burning with shame, her arms clasped around her chest. This left her defenceless when Kate reached around and gave her a ferocious wedgie!
The audience was partially unsighted but it was obvious there was a hell of a catfight going on. Security guards were summoned to separate the bickering slime-creatures. Lisa was still yelling "At least mine are real!" when she was dragged from the tank by a more-than-slightly turned on female security guard.
"So girls you've both given us quite an eyeful?!" remarked Gez

Lisa just wrapped her arms around her chest and shivered "I have nothing to say to her!". The back of her bikini was still twisted showing off rather more of her arse-cheeks than the garment was intended to do.
"Well we've lost a firm crowd favourite! Lisa we'll miss you, we'll miss your arse!..and well done to Kate as well." Kate's face was thunder!
Lisa didn't take her hands of her breasts to wave goodbye as she walked down the gangway, the crowd ogling her. Barefoot and carrying her shoes Kate skulked to boos from the increasingly lairy crowd.
Gez then turned to Ali "So, well done!"
Ali was soaked from the water jets but looked good compared with poor Lisa "I'm delighted, Kris and me always complete each others sentences so I knew we'd win thisand we saw quite a show! I just hope Stephanie knows that after fucking me over in the last round I'm after revenge."

The tall, willowy blonde exited the dingy arena arm in arm with her friend. She had escaped relatively easily in that head to head, but knew that worse mess was round the corner. "Bring it on!" she whispered aloud.

Epilogue Lisa and Kate patched up their differences and paid their way through University with extremely lucrative Victoria's Secret modelling contracts. When her family played charades at Christmas however, Lisa would always spend the time alone, drinking wine in the corner, a haunted look on her face
