Recap: Your Gen, August 31st 2011

It was a “famous couples” special this week – and Shaun was dressed as one-half of one of the most famous, John Lennon and Yoko Ono. It was a truly surreal episode!

(Here’s another photo)

The teams were Amanda and actor Tiriel Mora (BB), as Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz; Charlie and actor Genevieve Morris (Gen Y), as Jason Donovan and Kylie Minogue; Josh and musician Patience Hodgson (Gen X), as Prince William and Kate Middelton.

Yoko [played by Michiko Smith] stayed and ‘helped’ ‘John’ all night, as the games began with Panda-monium and Spoilers Ahoy – this time using Brian McFadden’s picture to indicate when to avoid hearing the answer.

The secret word was Formica!

Milo Kerrigan came out of retirement to act out a scene which the BB had to guess.

The magic window round buttons were all fake iPhone apps: “Kiss Me, Zombie”, “iClaudius”, “YoghurtFinder” and “Mars Time”.

  • Gen X clicked Kitty’s Ditties – Hello Kitty (also voiced by Shaun) sang lyrics from songs which the team had to guess. Power!
  • Gen Y downloaded Kiss Me, Zombie, playing Draw that Movie.
  • BB initialised YoghurtFinder, which was ¡Chronoloco! (or was that Chrono-Yoko?) The topic was Jeans.

The Your Gen round was Everything German, and Josh demonstrated his ability to ‘speak’ the language.

The end game was “Which Generation is Best At… Tailoring a 3-Piece Suit”. Much strange sowing ensued, and Gen Y won the 1999 Panthracian Association of Melbourne Dance Group trophy, donated by  Nicole Antzoulatos from Altona, Vic.

  1. ‘Yoko’ was tremendous. Suuurely she’s about to laugh…surely HERE she’ll crack a smile. Not once! Shaun on the other hand..

    It was so great.

  2. The truth has been revealed – Yoko was played by one of the TAYG producers: Michiko Smith. What a fantastic job she did!

  3. Oooh, thats my screenshot that I captured of Shaun & Yoko from the advert and posted it on the TAYG Facebook! The web address is still the same too, heh.
