Dave Made a Maze

As they venture deeper into the fortification, the team must survive various hazards and evade a bloodthirsty Minotaur.

What's left behind the scenes
- The studio had only two rooms large enough to build a labyrinth in. Filming took place in them in turn: while filming was underway in one room, sets were being prepared for the next scene in the other. The lifespan of the sets, as a rule, did not exceed 4 hours.
