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.
The cinematography of the moment where frank says "i need to find a one year old", then hears a baby in the silence, and starts running is just superb
Like something from the office
The little hop as he turns and scurries
2:11 for anyone needing a stamp
Frank who was 58 at that time, wondering whether a 55 years old knows what a high five is gets me everytime. 🤣🤣
Maybe they cut out the part where Alex had to explain what a high five is to Frank
He's not a average 58 year old...
"what do they look like"
He could’ve just high fives himself
@@mainmanstrider3239 I was looking for that comment 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Tim Key finding the one 55 year old is by far one of the most impressive moments of the entire show
It gets topped by Joes first try potato throw imo
I don't even hate on him for using comic relief since this was series 1 and nobody would know what he was doing it for, lol.
Absolutely remarkable
@@Soloman_Gumball as an american i thought he was just saying it's for a funny show.
@@genoalbright4098 It was pretty big, and there was even an American Version that differed a bit but used the name.
i was rlly hoping that the cameraman was 55 and that was the twist
that's genius
@@muscleman4187 ikr
I was really hoping for Greg to turn to Alex at the end and go: "So how old are you Alex?"
"Oh thanks Greg. The task was on my 55th birthday as a matter of fact."
Your profile pic is sublime
Alexandre Zani I feel like Alex is 28.
I'm not a native speaker and I thought "comic relief" was just another way of saying "I'm, doing this to make people laugh". I thought it was brilliant.
It does mean that, but I guess not in the UK where they have a charity organization named that
It's a thing where they get comedian to do comedy in exchange for no pay and all the proceeds go to charity
Same, i was confused at first
I'm an American and I thought the same thing
@@wondersuave So he could just argument that he wasn't talking about the org, just a coincidence! lol
Tim Key biding his time and getting it on his first try without even asking the gentleman's age first is just incredible
Underrated moment “how old are you?” “I’m in my 40s” “oh that’s too young...”
Right up there with the "are we picking who hosting the next World Cup?"
They should have approached people who looked 55 and asked if they were 45. They’d still find out the age and hopefully not insult people.
Genius
@sernem 669
So?
"Damn, you look young!" And raise your hand for a high five.
Instead of asking if they are 55, ask if they're younger than 55.
munsta007 well that means you still don’t know if they are 55 or >55
I remember reading somewhere that this sort of task was quickly removed, because Alex didn't want the show to turn into Punked or whatever similar style of show
Yeah, I quickly noticed that after this task, they very very rarely involved public places with other people around ever again. I guess this task didn't sit right with him. Personally I don't mind it, reminds me of impractical jokers, but I can see how some real trouble can be caused by it even unintentionally.
@@KellyJoule i agree. i mean some rare public tasks would be fun (especially if they put a lot of thought on how it plays out), but its not as "safe" as when all the participants are part of the show :/
As Sarah says, it's a bit unfair. It's not about how well you can do the task to the best of your ability and creativity; it's about how lucky you are to encounter the right middle-aged person.
It was probably because of laws that make you get consent to show people’s faces
Yeah chasing down a one year old is enough to make anyone iffy.
it’s stunning to compare the demure dynamic between greg and alex in the first series to the shameless raw sexual tension they’ve got now
The slowburn development of their relationship really ties all the series together, imo. It's also the closest thing to a plot this show has. I mean I know it's a panel show, but Greg and Alex are clearly playing characters and Alex always says TM is almost like a sitcom.
Nic Q i’ve never heard that sitcom comment before but i was just rewatching and i totally see it! everyone has their familiar roles and each task presents a new problem in the same way every sitcom episode introduces some new conflict to be addressed. dang that’s really cool!
@@kitkat1595 I think he also mentions it on the Taskmaster podcast that just came out, the first episode.
Frank's urgency at 2:10 is my favorite moment of the entire series.
I died laughing when he bolted straight towards the baby in a VERY threatening manner
As soon as frank started to chase after that 1 year old I got a commercial for diapers
Same
adblock
As a Canadian, I had no idea Comic Relief was a charity, I thought he was saying the show is literally for comic relief as a concept. I was very confused for a bit
Tim representing for all of us with social anxiety
Yeahh
I wonder if any of the camera crew were 55.
This ended up being brilliant not because the task was anything special just letting the wacky personalities do their thing. My favorite was Frank Skinner threatening to take ice cream from a baby. When the chips are down Frank's not above a little cruelty.
No mortal is
Watching Tim, and the faces and gestures he was making while staring at the elderly, I cannot for the life of me figure out why security didn't come over to escort him off the premise.
Easy: ask everyone, no matter what age they look. Then high five them no matter what answer you get.
Just high five someone and then tell them to say "I'm 55"
Bonus points if they're a kid
Jesus they're so British, I would have just yelled "Who is 55! I need a 55-year-old!"
Average American
Bit rude innit mate
@@imperialofficer6185 What makes asking for what you need "rude"?
@@angelbear_og Bro thats a joke
@@imperialofficer6185 Not a great one though ^_-
Excuse me are you 45?
No I'm 55.
Actually that's perfect...
Imagine living until 55 just to be destined for a high five.
frank looks so sweet in his lil suit i love it so much (except for when he’s threatening to take away ice cream from a child of course)
I would have just loudly proclaimed that I needed a fifty-five year old volunteer to high five me for a tv show
American, aren't you? From the States?
Romesh has a point, if Josh showed up with two 27 year olds it would be pretty legendary.
Not sure how I'd feel about the 1 year old.
Romesh said 54 year old there is no 1 year old.
Frank spotting the 1 year old made me laugh out loud at work. Thanks for the weird looks lol
It’s so funny seeing the reaction on the faces of people who grew up in the UK or surrounding. The instant recoiling to the idea of having to try to bother someone in public is so in keeping with British stereotype 😂
extra points for the "hole in one" execution and style
I thought he meant "comic relief" as in comic relief.
It was pretty implied that he meant Comic Relief, as in the charity event/organisation.
@@Amaneuclosis yeah except when you don't know that there is such a thing.
@@linusdn2777My bad! I thought you were being sarcastic, so I responded a bit passive aggressively, I apologise. You are very correct.
@awesome i imagine it's an English thing. Never heard of it in my country.
@awesome it's actually very mundane
I still think they should've tried to high five everyone, and had Alex follow along asking people's ages
I love that they take charities so seriously
During the pay off discussion at the end there, I found myself asking, where is Al "Moneybags" Murray when we need him?
Every time I watch this it just makes me ask why every season they have one guy look creepy wearing a tracksuit
Comedians will do anything for a laugh even at their own expense
Just discovered this channel a day ago and I watched like 20 videos already.... Don't understand how there are only 500k+ subs
ITS SO GOOD
Comic relief means something completely different in America. His statement is valid here. But now i know that means something else in the UK
Yeah I was so confused
Oh, the meaning is the same! But UK also has a charity event/organisation called Comic Relief!
@@Amaneuclosis we have it in the US too. I’m very confused how so many people don’t know about it.
@@katrose5179 Oh, I see! Maybe it just isn't as well known as other charity events?
@@Amaneuclosis maybe. I think we refer to the name of their days or sub groups more. If you’ve never seen Robin William’s Red Nose Day things, look it up! That’s done by Comic Relief US and hysterical.
I think that lady in the wheelchair wasn't 55, they were just lying to help her lol, not as if the show required an ID to prove it or anything
I keep coming back to this just to hear Romesh say "Legend"
Tim was me in every social situation ever
When Frank became Dr Frankenstein
I love that lady at 5:29 who looks around the corner at Tim and is like “WTF is that thing?”
I would've stood in the middle of the mall and screamed for a 55 year old.
Tim was unfortunately dressed for this challenge
But ended up with insane luck
I really loved the "buying of first place" in the end.
2020 version: Excuse me sir? Can I have an elbow bump??
wow, that's ballsy. Where I live we just give nods and shrugs
Romesh still looks angry about his sign and it’s bloody hilarious!! 🤣
Tim Key has always been my favourite.
I would have just said to a person: Wanna earn 10 pounds? Then give me a high five and say into the camera that you are 55. Bonus points if the person looks far to young :D Make the taskmaster proof that he lied
Tim absolutely deserves an extra point just for his keen eye
Love the music on this show, the intro and all. It's very fitting
Romesh looks so mad all the time lmao
The lazy eye makes me laugh for no reason everytime the camera pans to him
Tim key finding the 55 year old is by far the most impressive moments of the series.
Frank looking 55 himself and asking whether or not 55 year olds know what a high five is🤦♀️
he was 58 at the time i think
Would be quite weird if this was filmed recently.
This task is kinda a metaphor for the whole season
Yeah especially the banter between the contestants for 1st place. I miss the arguing between the contestants that happened on the earlier series
Series 1 is still one of my favorites.
HOLY... I DIDN'T KNOW 😂😂😂 Comic Relief IS a charity! I'm from the US so I saw nothing wrong with him saying that
My guy coming in with the FIFA joke @10:15. Class.
I miss high fives
Same :(
well i mean he technically is doing it for comic relief😂😂
I would have just been like "say your 55 and high five me and I'll give you 30$
The chaos at the end is fabulous 😂😂😂🎉🎉
I would hand a note to people that says: when I ask you how hold you are say you’re 55 and I’ll give you £20
I'd probably high-five the 60-year-olds. I mean, they are 55. Also 56. Also 57.
You are wrong they’re just 60
yeah that's not how it works
@@natebit7167 i think this may be a language thing. in some languages age isn't something you are it's something you have. like if you were to translate "I am 55" into french and back into english, it would be "I have 55 years." in this case it kind of makes sense to high five a 60 year old because they have more than 55 years, therefore they also have 55. so if this person speaks a language like that this comment might make more sense to them
Why not count in Julian Years? Lunar Years? Martian Years? Just figure out which year makes you 55, and then high-five yourself.
Your Julian age is the same as your Gregorian age unless you were born before 1900. I think the only purely lunar calendar in use is the Islamic calendar, which is about 3% faster than Gregorian. So 53 western years would be about 55 Hijri.
You could argue that since the Moon revolves around the Earth, a “Lunar Year” is actually ~29.5 Terran days. I wouldn’t say that a Terran year measured by the revolution of the Moon can be justifiably called a “Lunar” year.
@@stephenbeck7222 That can't possibly be true, because the two calendars aren't synced. Yeah, it probably won't _matter_ for the task, but someone who is using the Julian calendar will be 11 or so days off from someone using the Gregorian.
“Yeah, it was a bit creepy, that man.”
Man, the first season was something else
that world cup line was a banger!
This is the best! Awesome idea and awesome characters! I think (never watched it really though, just some small bits) we have taken both WILTY and this Taskmaster concept in Sweden and it what I have seen it sucks. This is great though!
Taskmaster/Bäst i test är bra, dom har ändrat det lite för att anpassa det mer för svenskar, det är iallafall långt bättre än amerikanska taskmaster 🤮 . OG Taskmaster är dock bäst😁svenska WILTY klarade jag inte en minut av, rent skit.
can we get these group of people together again on taskmaster?
For some reason I wanted one of them to find a 55 year old, and that person just refusing to high-five them and walk off
I think it would be funny if Greg "relieved" Tim of his points and give it to whoever's in the last place for that challenge
Commie
Ah yes, my favorite song: “Twenty Quid If You’re Fifty-Five!”
To be fair Romesh is higly disadvantaged in this game. No offense to old brits but I don't think that they got better views towards people that look like him than old frenchies.
It's kinda amazing no one pointed that out.
Frank gives off major Oliver of Only Murders in the Building vibes and I'm here for it.
I FEEL LIKE WERE CHOOSING WHO'S GONNA HOST THE NEXT WORLD CUP!
This line is actually genius
My favorite bit of this is Roisin's "look at the way he's sitting" and Tim yells back "I ALWAYS SIT LIKE THIS"
I feel so bad for the people that are just shopping and suddently a stranger comes to you and asks how old are you
With my social anxiety I just wouldn't be able to do this
AN AD STARTED RIGHT AS HE STARTED RUNNING TOWARDS THE WOMAN WITH THE BUGGY AND IT JUST FLOORED ME AA
"How much for your chair" "what? You want to be host now?"
Most challenges I think I might have a chance at and even enjoy doing, but this one would be a nightmare for me.
Tim Key’s entire bit was just hard to watch 😂
Ah, the Before Times. When you could go out in public and ask random people for a high five without being a genuine public health problem. It's been so long, I can barely remember the Before Times... These magical portals back to them are all that keeps my memory fresh and hopeful for someday when we can return...
Tim looked like if Victor from Despicable Me had a child with Jonah Hill
Really glad I discovered this show. Cheers from Italy ♥️
I'm just imagining there being a 55 year old on the crew with them.
5:30 vector from despicable me
5:55 art
The hilarity is an American would have this done in 10 seconds 😂
I must know what happened during that break
If I said I was dating a 27-year-old and turned up with a 54-year-old with no legs, you'd say mate, that's half a 54-year-old but it's not a 27-year-old
this was the first taskmaster clip I watched.
this clip got me hooked pls help
In every TH-cam clip Romesh looks so anguished
1:30 I see the build a bear workshop >\\\< God, I loved it so much when I was a kid!
4:55 *Luck at its finest*
Why no upload of the Champion of Champions series?
I would speculate that CoC was in a different network, seeing as though it is a spin-off.
I'm 55. I know what a high 5 is. This is ridiculous.
But funny.
you should do a special episode for comic relief with the billionaires from shark tank and have them outbid each other for 1st place with all the money going to charity
Most sharks on shark tank aren't billionaires. I don't think any of them have billions plural.
@@drdre4397 doesn't really matter if they have one or two the are unlikely to give up towards a billion on a gameshow regardless, even if it is for charity
Most of their money is in stocks and bonds, not liquid cash.
Ah high fives, I remember those.
Did Tim really get the 55 year old first try?? Bro has the instincts man
"Excuse me. I am competing on a game show and need to find someone born in 1965 to high five to win. Were you born in 1965?"
