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.

they were all got longer
Hmm...11 trips with 2 balls every time would only be 22 total balls herded...how did he end up with more (27) than the other two?
Well we know for sure Anakin would definitely have hated the first task..
One of the most interesting things I’ve learned while watching this show is that “stone” is an actual unit of measurement that is actively used in UK.
I feel like, if asked, Joe would say that his Harry Potter patronus would be a blobfish.
The best banter so far BY FAR
Seems like Paul is taking a page from Rhod's book in the prize task....
At 6:30, Alex says, "Two to Lou?" and I think he was making a joke on "toodle-oo," because he gave a quick look at Greg to see if he'd noticed, but quickly dropped the gaze when he realized Greg didn't give a darn.
The sand one I would've used my shirt or maybe even moved the table over and used it like a ramp to guide it in.
The Blobfish deserved 3 points at least. Rubbish
Rather fitting that Romesh appears again with a watermelon of sorts
As soon as Alex said sand an ad for the movie Dune started playing where he was picking up sand
@ 8:54 obvious distress
That moment when I’m 24 and I know who Templeton “Face Man” Peck is.... I was literally watching The A-Team last night....grew up watching it on vhs and now I watch it on dvd. It’s so good!
Joe actually look like blobfish all the times like he purportely lost and sad but so freaking handsome. Did i caught Joe flipping a bird up his nose toward Greg in sand challenge? 🤣
“Don’t tell me I hearded that ball” Paul took me out with this one!!💀💀💀💀
You guys got the blob fish wrong scientifically. It does not look like that XD. The species lives very deep in the ocean at an extreme range of pressure. The only way we know they existed is because every now and then someone catches one, or it washes up dead somewhere. When the blob fish is forcibly brought to our lower pressure range, it becomes that poor monstrosity we know and love today.
i fall more in love with this group every episode
For the sand task, I would have (trying to go as fast as I can which isn't a lot lol) thrown everything from the table and used the table as a ramp or slide between bucket A and B, it would depend on how fast I managed to get the table how much sand would go to waste but I would risk it lmao
1:37 I really thought last episode's Nell was the most wholesome thing Taskmaster has put out but the beggining "banter" of this episode might have topped even that
the point system seems to be totally messed up! I feel bad for the ones who put a lot of work into it and he gives them nadda...
If there was a way to add subtitles by the general public, I'd be delighted to start off with season 1. :)
@33:55 why does Joe almost always look like he just suddenly realized something or is questioning the meaning of life?
Jesus Christ!!! What's going on with Joe?!! 33:54 is he tripping balls? Lmao
I feel sorry for the blob fish, because that's NOT what they look like when they're in their proper environment. The "blob" look forms from leaving the pressurized waters of the deep sea.
What's in my pocket was brilliant!
sighhh i miss nish kumars incompetence, laugh, and.... hey look at that tree!!
What is it with Paul and those pajamas??
Wait a minute, why didn’t we get to see Iain in a kilt in Edinburgh?!?!? Yeah, the throwing chain was broken, whatever, I still want to see Iain in his kilt in Edinburgh!!! WTF?!?!?
21:15 He looks like a dodo 😄
Greg in every episode: welcome to the TUCKSmaster. Are you hinting to Ru Paul to have you on as a contestant, Greg?
Why does Joe look like he's constantly pondering the meaning of the universe? His face is an unchanging mix of shock, confusion and awe unless he's laughing at something
he seriously looks like he's under the influence of something or other he's also extremely attractive
26:37 I live in Jersey and I have a picture from when I came upon that exact archway while visiting New York, and it’s from practically the same angle. Pretty cool.
Yes!! Please more please! This series is helping me cope with Covid and an MS diagnosis. It’s just such a great and upbeat and fun show!! Thank you for uploading!
Iain is my absolute favorite (across all series)! I wish he could come back.
for the ping pong balls they could have tied string to the fence and dragged the fence instead but im not sure it would work.
I believe that qualifies as moving the fence which was outlined as disqualifiable, but that certainly would be entertaining
I know Joe always has certain expressions, but during the injury task, he gives Lou a look like "What a psycho." And then we see his... I adore this man!
Ahh am I all caught up? Literally have binged watched all the series available on KGup thinking they were all available. Now I have to wait for a new one every week?!?!?
Now Alex claims to have designed the game what’s in my pocket, but I think we all know it was Bilbo Baggins...
Iain giving us all Phil Wang flashbacks
-Oh god, I'm only 5'. -Yes, me too. Amazing.
Did anyone find episode 6?
15:10 Paul cracked the system.
Sian Gibson only got SEVEN ping pong balls!!!!! Alex said she got 8. THIS WHOLE SHOW IS A LIE!!!!
Ian akwardly adjusting his longjohns all the time, is pretty funny.
Paul is like the Phil Wang of this season😂😂
That was a pretty flat episode...
I love how different Greg and Alex are. It makes their banter so much funnier 😂😂😂 Also, love Ian's "and that's the whole package" before sitting and showing us his package 😳😂😂😂
That’s what a blobfish looks like after explosive decompression. It came up to the surface too quickly.
what's the song that starts at 13:42
In what world did Lou not touch the sand?
Use the toilet paper on the round thingy with the holes in it where you usually put noodles and stuff. Should work swimingly 😂
Oh no... I've cought up with live releases...
I've never seen you guys cut up a soccer ball or do I correct myself and say a football ever? :-)
I hope they release the video of Iain in a kilt throwing a beach ball
I'm from Taiwan and it is so funny to hear Alex say 小白.
The amount of adverts on this is a tad ridiculous
Thanks again guys!
The pure joy of Greg guessing what was in the pocket was immense
6:31 It's a shame nobody picked up on his "Toodaloo" pun
SHE TOUCHED THE SAND SHE TOUCHED THE SAND (Lou)
oh, I thought the duck murdered him
That has to be the most Alex has cracked at his own bit
21:18 hah bookmarking Joe's adorable laugh
The Tree wizard makes a cameo!!
'free' healthcare in ENgland, but no dental?
Greg with the "in these uncertain times" line at 12:05. This was filmed before COVID. How little did he know.
Ian’s mini meltdown with the sand has got to be one of the most relatable things I’ve seen on tv in a long time
Tbh it's not the injuries that get me, like I can deal with the gore. It's the food aspect of them that made me want to gag.
I don't get it..... did they not.. all touch the sand??? The task said you cannot touch the sand?
To be fair, the blobfish doesn't look like that when it's underwater. The lack of pressure it experiences on land makes it look like that. Still cute, regardless. Also, seems like they all touched the sand which should have disqualified them all. Edit: I see Alana Castillo had a much better explanation to the blobfish bit than I did.
5:43 6:10 return of bi icon Greg Davies??!?!
I will forever be upset that Alex wouldn't let Lou set her tea down (or just take it from her) in the sand task, and also that they didn't lower the bucket an inch or two for Sian
This whole show was created so Alex could do that pocket bit. It was the long con.
The bass line of this shows theme is an absolute banger.
Each and every time they measure weight in stone, I have to American Google what the conversion to lbs lol
Joe Thomas marry me challenge
i was hoping any of them would just grab the table for the sand.
Thank God I finished eating before the bloody task lel
How "the Face" does not get 5 points, when "the best face" was aked is above me. 🤷♂️ And with the sand task: was the little table all the probs were placed on taboo? i would have tried to place the table below the bucket and use the broom to swipe the sand into the other bucket.
I wonder why nobody used their shoes in the sand or herding task...
2:55 Me: I know I have five points around here, somewhere.....
Joe's face FFS!!!! Died laughing 17:56 and 33:48
There is a real sinister team dynamic between Joe and Sian. First the awkward meetup before the compass task, and now: "Do you want to do it at home with a pump?"
Joe looks like he is on methadone in most of the studio clips... I mean just look at him at 17:56 ...
Miles Jupp on this program would be utterly amazing
Whats wrong with the weird guy?
Alex Horne's face throughout the "pocket game" is so so amazing, genuine delight
Again, though, blob fishes don't look like that at their depth. This is the result of extreme and fast depressurization. Nothing would look good after that...
Is Joe high or is that just normal Joe?
Its in my pocket pocket... pocket not that, the other one
When Iain was running, I expected him to start doing his "boots and cats" beatboxing. (Also I'm on Team Iain Made A Continuous Noise. And I think I might be alone in that.)
I feel less alone. Thank you.
I’m with you on that!
5:36 Please help me with what they're saying, especially what Greg says? I trust the auto generated captions as far as I could throw Greg.
@Andy Juras Thank you! Could you (or someone else) please tell me what the next few are, up to when Iain is unbuttoning his shirt? I'm especially lost with wthat Greg says offscreen.
Iain said “I’m not naked or anything. I’ve got other things” and Greg replied “oh yeah?”
The Honorable Task Master was FAR TOO GENEROUS giving three of them four points each for three points worth of effort!
I am not sure whether I should feel good about the fact that these videos so far have been THE highlight of my time spent at work this year.
Can someone check on Joe?
Is it just me or did Sian and Joe definitely also touch the sand?
Probably, that's the thing with sand: it gets everywhere. Sometimes they're very strict on the rules, sometimes they're just there to prefent easy ways around the task. They touched it, but they didn't actively try to use their hands for the task, so they let it slide.
"Can we all just sigh?" Good god I'd love to be around a crowd sighing and not worrying about dying, lol
lou sanders is the katherine parkinson of this season
I love Sian but you can't tell me her injury was better than Joe's.
