Canada x x x x Tunisia x x x 1 2 8 10 From black to white now for Tunisia, meaning we will be opening up treasure chest number 7.... will it be lucky 7 for Tunisia, let's find out....

12 x 1 2 3 4 5 6 x x x x 7 8 9 10 11 12 x x x Nooo!! And still we trudge forward in search of a key to open the lucky chest. We are running out of keys. Tunisia it's back to you, select another key please!

Canada x x x Tunisia x x x 1 2 7 8 10 Black it is, meaning we are going to open chest number 12 next. Are we going to find the Golden Ticket here, let's find out....

6 x 1 2 3 4 5 6 x x x x 7 8 9 10 11 12 x x Not to be I'm afraid! And so we continue on....half the keys used, half the chests opened and still no Golden Ticket to be found. This is heading down to the wire. Canada, let's choose another key and open another chest....

Canada x x x Tunisia x x 1 2 7 8 10 12 Silver key up next for Tunisia. Will there be a silver-lining? Treasure chest number 6 is waiting to give us an answer....

5 x 1 2 3 4 5 6 x x x 7 8 9 10 11 12 x x Nope! Unlucky! The Golden Ticket eludes us still. 5 chests opened, 7 more remain. Tunisia, choose a coloured-key and bring it forward....

Canada x x Tunisia x x 1 2 6 7 8 10 12 Fancy yourself in pink? Sure why not! Treasure chest number 5 is awaiting, let's see what's inside.....

4 x 1 2 3 4 5 6 x x 7 8 9 10 11 12 x x Nooo!! Ooh, not to be for turquoise this year! Man that really tempted fate..... Canada, shall we open another chest? Let's be having another coloured-key then....

Canada x x Tunisia x 1 2 5 6 7 8 10 12 Could it be that the key that changed the hands several times throughout the game will be in fact the lucky key? Treasure chest number 4 holds the answer we have all been waiting for....

3 x 1 2 3 4 5 6 x 7 8 9 10 11 12 x x Ohhh, unlucky!! The tension is building... down to 9 chests now. Tunisia, make your next play....

Canada x Tunisia x 1 2 4 5 6 7 8 10 12 Green you say? Ok then, as we can see that means we will be opening chest number 3 next.... best of luck!!

11 x 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 x x No Golden Ticket there either!! Down to 10 treasure chests, one with the Golden Ticket. Bring forward another key Canada....

Canada x Tunisia 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 10 12 It had to be purple . So as you can see that corresponds to chest 11.... let's open it!!

9 x No Golden Ticket to be found there!! Tunisia can breathe again and we now ask for their first choice of key!

Canada Tunisia 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 10 11 12 As you can see, the yellow key corresponds to chest number 9! Let's open chest 9.....

Ladies and Gentlemen the battle for the Golden Ticket has come down to this. Canada and Tunisia, both with 6 keys each. One of them has the correct coloured key that opens the treasure chest containing the Golden Ticket. I will ask them to to take turns choosing one of their 6 keys and after each choice I will reveal the numbered chest that key corresponds to. It's a tense situation but it had to be! The very best of luck to both our contestants. We will begin with Canada, as the highest ranked nation at the previous TISC, to make their first choice of key Canada Tunisia 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
