Watch a cooking competition and tick off moments as they happen, from a contestant forgetting an ingredient to a dessert refusing to set or a judge praising the seasoning.

How to run this activity

Choose a suitable event, film or licensed music playlist in advance; tick only cues actually observed or heard. Do not use copyrighted film stills, lyrics, artwork or branded franchise logos as official RoomZing template content. Provide accessible alternatives to sound-only cues.

Facilitator guidance

Check the board against your chosen programme, as not every cue will occur. Aim for a single line rather than a full card, and check that five in a row is realistically achievable given how often the cues appear. Replace unrealistic cues and offer substitutes where needed.

Safety and inclusion

Use inclusive language and do not pressure players to share private information. Use original prompts and visuals, and check that any media you use is permitted and appropriately licensed. Do not use franchise logos, protected artwork, film stills or reproduced lyrics.
