Joe having a very minor outburst and then apologising very politely is already funny, but it is only heightened by that fact that he was in this season with lou and iain, two of the most audibly competitive people on taskmaster, and sian gibson who spent most of the season screaming
Lou Sanders really ruined this series for me, Iain and her get so competitive they stress me out (but at least Iain is fun to watch, Lou is just annoying)
Joe Thomas: grape Joe Thomas: I don't know what's more see-through than this. I'd also say that it's a symbol of industrial progress, it's something that is a human right if you're in a prison. It is, of course, a window. I know that you sort of think that maybe I've been a bit literal in the interpretation of this... Joe Thomas: soap
Despite the initial awkward meeting, I think Sian and Joe made a lovely team. Them laughing together about playing the record backwards and Joe's reaction when Sian suggests putting the hammock on the ground are wholesome af.
@@iliketrains3495 judging by his reaction, Joe just got absolutely no forewarning it was time to work with someone else lol. maybe thought he was intruding on someone else's task
I just listened to Iain Sterling on the Taskmaster podcast. He said people ask him if Joe is really like that, and he said it seemed Joe put on some bravado and charisma for the cameras. So if people think he’s strange or awkward onscreen…lol Iain even thought Joe was joking at first with how he acted
Hes the kinda guy women want as a husband. Not just bc hes cute and funny… but bc hes a sweet, kind and genuine man who would be a great father and gentle partner.
the fact that there is only seven years between them makes this so much better cos if i didnt know and somebody told me they were mother and son i would believe them
the only excuse i can make is that when i was thinking of my fave parts to put in the compilation was that i forgot about the live tasks. but i honestly should've having rewatched that part
It's the whole package, @@beek.4860. The speed of it alone is *chef's kiss*, and the thinking face, too, but the sleeve roll can't be ruled out as a contributing factor.
After rewatching Series 8 multiple times, I feel once you know Iain will have a redemption arc in the end the whole series becomes fun to watch. So a rough first watch but incredible rewatchability value for me. Especially since they have some of the best tasks in this series I'd absolutely love to do personally
I've never disliked a contestant on the show as they all have their strengths and add their own dynamics to the cast, but some of those team tasks with Iain were horrible aha, at least he had the grace to react appalled by his own behaviour
Joe T is is the definition of "Awkwardly charming politely anxious chaotic-good student who despite being furiously bullied by both the popular kids and headmaster prevails gloriously come graduation year as he has emphatically become the entire faculty's favourite prefect or simply burns down the school- .... Energy " 😂✌️
Sometimes at random moments, like standing in line at the grocery store, or waiting in my car at a red light, I'll sing, "Mmm Get Together Mm Mm it's too big" And it brings me such joy! Thank you, Joe and Sian!
Joe is absolutely adorable. Wanky work around, brilliant. Seriously awkward and awkwardly serious. He is a young person with an old soul, like ancient, bless him.
Series 8 was pretty fun, not my fave but i love the cast to bits (joe especially) but Iain and Lou's competetiveness versus Joe and Sian's wholesome variety hour was a delight
i wanted to come back to this comment since Iain is gonna be on the Taskmaster Podcast and i saw some rude comments about him online, i really liked Iain's run on S8 because he and Lou had a natural competitiveness that they used against each other a lot, i found it really similar to Ed and Rose from S9 who are friends outside of the show who are ridiculously competitive, just wanted to put that out there since many rag on S8 for being too competitive but i thoroughly enjoy the competitiveness
Tomato vine is actually my favorite smell. I have a tomato vine room diffuser and I used to wear a fragrance called Memories of Kindness that had a note of tomato vine. I was thrilled that he felt the same and can’t wait until we wed.
He did have a solid point though about people just cheating tasks and putting in zero effort. When Bill Murray cheated at least that required effort, people that just don't even try make for really boring watching
It you ever did a video which included his defence of bringing in the grape, I'd love it so much... He cited some poetry and my heart went fhwoomp right out of my chest 😭😭😭
if you want more content of Joe Thomas being adorable, you should listen to the Off Menu podcast with him on it and the Christmas special of the podcast. The podcast has Ed Gamble and James Acaster as the host. Joe Thomas episodes was so amazing

@@ellisscott8905 Yees and every other answer during that task was almost instant. That whole episode is just Joe flexing his competence :D No wonder he got an almost perfect 24 out of 25
Agreed! Joe is just so sweet, and Paul has this quiet and dry humour that catches you off-guard. I was actually considering skipping this season after a few episodes but I just love those two too much.
He's soo brilliantly awkward and confused at all times :') I never really got into his character on inbetweeners because his reactions were always soo over the top compared to the rest of his character but watching this im just like...oh thats just how awkward and confused Joe genuinely is :')
Joe was the only one I knew when I started this season, and I ended up loving all of them like in all the other season. But Joe will still be one of my top contestants in the show.
He's like the stereotypical English guy that you see in movies and TV that we think the British are like and then we realize oh no they are a lot more foul-mouthed and perverted LOL

Sian and Joe made for such an adorable team. They were in sync in a way that I wasn't expecting.
They were like a mum and son

The saving grace of Series 8 for me. Absolute brilliant lad.
Paul gave me some of my funniest moments. I was honestly crying with laughter watching his ping pong herding task. But Joe was by far my favourite.

I can't work out why the TM chanel hasn't done a compilation of Joe. There is almost as much thirst for Joe as there is for Mike.
Who's Mike?
@@LenaMellow Mike Wozniak, season 11
Joe is literally a mustacheless Mike. 🥵
@@vartatula Nah, Mike doesn't have the awkwardness of Joe. Different vibes.
I never thought a man sitting in a chair just saying the word 'grape' could make me laugh so much
He doesn't talk much on this show compared to other contestants. I like the way he greets Alex. He's my third fav contestant after Rob and Hugh Dennis
completely understand you, james acaster was great too
lmao sian's ever so quiet "it's too big" lmao
4:11 this was genuinely one of the best tasks they'd ever done! The tasks for this season were absolutely brilliant!
sian and joe were so great together, so strange yet so funny
One of the best teams in Taskmaster history!
Knowing that he’s autistic makes his… *everything* on this season make so much sense 😆
I don't think he is
He said in his stand up show that he thinks he is
The best part is this is how he actually is in real life (if you believe what the other comedian's say about him). Gives hope to us awkward peeps :)
You might enjoy his appearance on James Acaster and Ed Gamble's podcast Off Menu. A great insight into his bizarre world.
It's so funny you say that, because his old show always gave me the impression that he'd be a bit of a lad 😅😅
I don't think you could fake that awkwardness tbh. 😂
He was great in Fresh Meat playing an awkward character
@@eneedham789 Yes!! Him in the album cover task was literally Kingsley
The eraser outburst was 100% justified 😂
This video is amazing thank you for making it! Joe and Mike Wozniak are my Ridiculous Taskmaster Crushes and this was the perfect reminder of why.
yep
Yesss 😂
And James Acaster!
everyone who watches this series falls in love with either joe or lou and there are no other options
or both!
yes but consider: paul sinha
i may be the only one but it was iain for me
No love for Sian?
Watching him in Inbetweeners, it feels like he is just acting as himself 😄
Tomato vine is actually my favorite smell. I have a tomato vine room diffuser and I used to wear a fragrance called Memories of Kindness that had a note of tomato vine. I was thrilled that he felt the same and can’t wait until we wed.
You’re mad, except for that last line congratulations
He did have a solid point though about people just cheating tasks and putting in zero effort. When Bill Murray cheated at least that required effort, people that just don't even try make for really boring watching
BILL MURRAY?
It you ever did a video which included his defence of bringing in the grape, I'd love it so much... He cited some poetry and my heart went fhwoomp right out of my chest 😭😭😭

it's hilarious bc it's true
I'm still waiting for Joe's best moments compilation from the official channel.....
But I absolutely loved this one!
me too! i tried making one myself but it got copyright claimed. thank you!! i love your profile pic btw!
Joe was the only one I knew when I started this season, and I ended up loving all of them like in all the other season. But Joe will still be one of my top contestants in the show.
he’s so cute for what
watching the relationship between joe and sian over the series was so good
I laugh every time at just … “Soap”.
WHY does he insist on going under that Start sign?? Hahaha!
“within cuddle distance” is the cutest thing that’s ever been said in taskmaster history
doctor: you have 9 minutes to live
me: instantly loads up this video
Joe Thomas is a king among men
Best video ever. Joe is my spirit animal.
Is that not the finishing line?
...
OH FUCK ME!
It's the minimalistic "soap" that killed me.
Aaaw I've been wishing for this, thanks for making this! I unashamedly fell in love with Joe during this season of Taskmaster
thank you for watching!! and i'm glad i could fulfill your wish haha. honestly, i did as well. how can you not?
I love it when he got angry because it's like his inner Simon was bought out
“it’s a symbol of industrial progress, it’s something that’s a human right if you’re in a prison…”
sexiest joe moment was when he did math on stage
Guy's a mood.
I don't know why I love him so much. But I do and I'm not ashamed of it. He is so sweet, cute, smart and funny.
i would have liked to see joe's great songwriting in the song for a stranger task
How is he nearly 40 lol he has such a babyface
wait he's nearly 40?? he does omg
I really loved season 8 as a whole. Joe was a big part of the reason why :D
Im recovering from c19 and I fell asleep to this and woke up feeling much better. Thanks joe.
i'm glad you're feeling better!
Akward, English, Posh, Good-looking.
He's like a young Huge Grant.
Without the shagging of prostitutes
(Well as far as we know;)
He reminds me of Tobey Maguire playing Nick in the new The Great Gatsby movie.
i haven't watched great gatsby in years but i can kind of see what you mean haha
imagine being _iain stirling_ and complaining about someone else getting annoyed
i was honestly about to defend iain bc someone left a hate comment about him a couple days ago, but then i realised that you're right lmaoo

Honestly though his sneaking was some Assassin's Creed level playing
Sure when Joe Thomas is awkward everyone swoons over him but when I do it people are just unconfortable
I think the only way I could love Joe any more then I already do, is if he weren't best buddies with Satan
The most adorable people on the show? Anyone? For me it’s 1- Sian Gibson
2- Charlotte Richie
3 - Joe Thomas
4 - Fern Brady
Have watched this all the way through and now, somehow, I'm pregnant...
When I watched this series it was like he didn't want to be there for a lot of it. But I think that was just his personality and he was a bit quiet with a side of awkwardness.
i love him so much
I feel like I relate to Joe the most out of any TM contestant! (in the UK, at least)
Listen. I don't know who he is and I didn't watch this season. But I slightly love him.
good! series 8 isn't my fave but i love the cast, especially joe. he is also in the inbetweeners fyi (i haven't watched it but i just know he's in it)
They were my favourite set of competitors haha
