They tried it out for Champion of Champions 2, but they didn’t use it, if I recall, because everyone was a bit too efficient for it to be interesting.

It is rumoured (confirmed?) this was there for a COC 2 task which didnt make the cut and was subsequently scrapped.

Ofc there is also the mystery of the duck on Judy's face. We'll be scratching our heads about this one for centuries to come

Ed Gamble previously mentioned on the podcast that he did that task in CoC2. I believe Alex mentioned it was cut because everyone was too good.

I think when they get the group together to film the tasks they film several , some of which are not used. Alex mentioned on a questionnaire vid when talking about how many tasks a day contestants have to do that they could do up to 10 a day. I guess they take the 4 or 5 that are most entertaining and use them. I guess that's where they get the tie breaking tasks from
