Did you read the post?
Spatial awareness stuff. Think they said the thing they would have been putting on TV would be something like they leave you in the middle of nowhere and you have to find your way to a set point, presumably with no map. They did two tests for it.
One called the blind triangle, they blindfold you and put ear defenders on you. Then walk you along two sides of a triangle and you have to get back to the starting point making the other side of the triangle. Apparently the average distance from the start over two tries is about 1.35m, I was 0.49m.
Other was the four mountains test, which is one where they show you a picture of a range of 4 hills then show you 4 more and you have to identify which is the same as the first picture from them, they move the viewing position for the picture so you have to be able to work out which it is even though it looks different. 20 seconds looking at the first picture, 10 looking at the set of 4. I got 26 from 30 right, apparently over 25 is very good, over 28 exceptional.

Presumably you didn't tell them about the time you managed to get yourself locked in a car park?
The hidden talent show, some thing they are starting on channel 4, in autumn I think, got tested for some random things like foreign language aptitude, lie detection, and spatial awareness.
I was very good at the spatial awareness things, out of over 1500 people tested I came i'n the top 50
The speculation was awesome
