Good Idea, Bad Idea

And the team who also ignored Treguard in series 5, when they were told to take an arrow ("no Pickle, not a weapon, more like a token,") then they don't take it, take the poison, and have a weird idea about trying to hide a knife.
Good idea for Simons team: "Walk forward"
Bad idea for the same team: "Side step to the left."
Simons team was in series 4.

Good idea: flying on the back of Smirkenorff to reach Level 2.
Bad idea: flying on a magic carpet to see the King Of The Potato People, and beg for your freedom... and you're telling me you're completely sane? I think that calls for two hours of W.O.O.

Good idea: "I am Granitas of legend, three riddles have I and truth I seek."
Also good idea: ditto Olgarth, Igneous, Cedric, Merlin, Brangwen, Golgarach, Oakley... or anyone else who asks riddles. With one notable exception.
