In this Broadcast Award-winning, BAFTA and Emmy Award-nominated entertainment show, Taskmaster tyrant Greg Davies (Man Down, Cuckoo), with the help of his loyal assistant Alex Horne (The Horne Section and the show’s creator), sets out to test the wiles, wit and wisdom of five hyper-competitive comedians.
Comedians that have risked life, limb, and dignity in the hope of making the Taskmaster proud so far include: Frank Skinner (The Frank Skinner Show), Mel Giedroyc (The Great British Bake Off), Romesh Ranganathan (Asian Provocateur), Hugh Dennis (Outnumbered), Sally Phillips (Bridget Jones’ Diary), Rose Matafeo (Edinburgh Comedy Award Winner 2018), and Russell Howard (The Russell Howard Hour). Unaware of what awaits them in each wax-sealed envelope, only one competitor can become the victorious owner of His Royal Task-ness’ golden head and be crowned the next Taskmaster Champion.

"That's not very nice, I didn't fucking torture you." is one of my favourite David lines.

“‘No pre-existing timing devices.’ Does that include, like, a watch?”

@jennatodd4664 Год назад

The spectrum of Katy’s personality is so insane to me. On the one end, she was so nervous about doing the studio shows that she would mumble all of her quips as quietly as possible, forcing the editing team to crank up her mic in post. Only for her to then swing to the other side and do something like casually throwing Chinese water torture into a task.

@genericname2747 Год назад

The duality of Katy

@TheBT Год назад

Weirdly, the reason why is the second word of your sentence. Katy is Autistic. I'm the same, I am very nervous in situations with an audience but the other day in some AI testing I asked for it to write a letter to my local mp explaining why marmite should be compulsory for schoolkids everyday.

@TheBT Год назад

Or I just made up that I asked AI to do that, either way I must have had that idea to include it in my reply 😂

Rose's method was genuinely so impressive! I feel like she's probably experimented with this kind of cooking a bunch of times before, it was just so precise lol

@snazzypazzy Год назад

There was a thing called a candle clock in history, also versions with nails in the side that fall down once the candle hits that point. Makes for a pertty decent system

@olenilsen4660 Год назад

I´m a bit surprised that everyone was so surprised tbh. I always chill my eggs in running cold water after cooking them, it stops the boiling and it also makes it possible to handle them with bare hands. But the candle part was really impressive. I would have no clue how long it takes one of those candles to burn down.

@Kilaena Год назад

She definitely deserved the five points. Watching a timer on your phone is less impressive than doing the task. It wasn’t even clever cheating.

@fruitshuit Год назад

@@Kilaena Jo's method wasn't watching a timer, it was "starting with the egg in cold water, bring the pot to a boil, sing a song that lasts approximately three minutes, remove from pot." That's why Jo sings Jerusalem, a slow song that's conveniently public domain. The only reason the phone was even involved was so Alex couldn't be tricksy and sing the song at the wrong tempo.

@russellmz 8 месяцев назад

or you can sing a song or two, see which takes about the time to do a softboiled egg, and sing that. honestly since cooking down to the exact second is negligible with cooking eggs it would be :harder: to sing a song faster and slower to a specific time instead of picking a song you can sing normally in x.y minutes.

@mikespike007 Год назад

of course we do, one man doesn't put a hole in his egg therefore nobody in Britain does, that's some weird logic.

@funlovingvoyeur Год назад

Cooling down has nothing to do with making the peeling more easy. That is determined by the freshness of the egg. A fresh egg will be hard to peel. An older egg not so much.

@DutchLabrat Год назад

@@funlovingvoyeur Not true at all, when suddenly cooled the layer between the egg and the shell will detach from the denatured protein of the bioled egg. This way the shell will not take any egg with it when peeled off.

@funlovingvoyeur Год назад

@@DutchLabrat a fresh egg has lower Ph, making it more acidic. When cooked this makes the egg whites bond more stronger with the shell membrane. Cooling can make it easier, but it will always be harder to peel a fresh egg than it will be to peel an older egg
