If I take the 11 sleepy train it pulls in to the station at 2 and then there's no more trains. 1am express is the one, takes you right through to the morning.
I still cannot believe Dara actually, FINALLY, is on the show. My brother and I became fans of his from Mock the Week and his stand-up shows during the 2000s, and remain so to this day. This is already my most anticipated series of the show so far
The interviews getting posted makes it REALLY real, I'm so excited 😍 Also, I thought little Alex was already pretty sassy last series but sneaking in a "are you going to report me?!" not even 30 seconds in... that bodes well for us (and awful for him) for this series - and I.can.not.wait!🎉
I made up several full seasons of Taskmaster contestants in the past, and I am BEYOND excited to see Dara O'Briain and Sarah Millican on, as they were high up on my list of contestants I wanted to see. Should be a terrific season.
@@MisterSolitude since when's that been a marker for anything?😂 Morgana (I think it was) fucked up the bridge-building task despite having a degree in city architecture/planning? And it certainly won't help with "change your appearance the quickest" ...unless that was a joke and it didn't transpire in writing, then you have my sincerest apologies 😆
What? Are the interview questions ever related to anything in the tasks? I think not. Either I have been missing something very obvious from all the previous seasons or you don't know that interview task has just (not really) random questions just to communicate the general vibe of the contestants.
Dara is a big brain boffin and sharp as a tack but we've seen in the past that doesn't always mean they've done well aha, will be interesting to see if he'll cave on to Greg or if he'll stand his ground as a former show host
I now rescind my statement, Dara had proven to be so good over two episodes he may end up breaking Taskmaster, everyone panic there's no time to grab your hard hats
ever since the day I first even discovered that Taskmaster existed (they were about midway thru series 7 airing), there was one person who immediately was at the top of my list for my dream panel of contestants. And that person? Dame Judi Dench. nah just kidding, it was Dara O'Briain (even better, one of my other picks after just only discovering her a year ago is Fern Brady! now both in one go!)
Series 14!!! So much Hype. The best TV show for putting celebs on the spot. Looking forward to seeing how everyone gets along and the comedy that will come from it all
Cant wait for this series! I liked Dave Gorman and i also liked David badiel, Johnny Vegas and Jo Brand. Task suggestion here: Name: Popcorn Set theme: Movie. dimmed lights. Task items: Assorted items 3+bags of popcorn kernels. one mini popcorn machine. The task is to pop the most popcorn. you have 5 minutes to prepare and 5 minutes to pop the popcorn. each kernel poped is a point. each unpoped kernel that is placed in the finishing ball is -5 points. edit: bonus points for best flavor.
Can’t wait to see Dara and Fern on this season. I think Dara will be the David Baddiel of this season while Fern has the possibility to be the sleeper hit like Sophie last season.
I don’t think Dara will be as lazy as David was sometimes; I can see him getting fixated on a terrible idea but if there’s another task like Make A Dramatic Entrance, I think he’ll go all in rather than losing commitment partway through
I still can't believe my luck. I only just discovered Fern Brady last Christmas, and I was immediately balls to the wall crazy about her. She went right into my "dream 5", and now getting her so soon after that, AND getting my most wishful player ever in Dara... this one's been a hard wait I know that people are making the Dara/VCM comparison because of the high intelligence, and I kinda have a bit more faith in Dara scoring better because, I'm sorry but he just seems vastly better at improvving and adapting to things on the fly that Victoria is. Of course he could still totally crash and burn, but I doubt he'll be this surprise repeat of VCM
Nice attention to detail having different photos on the wall for each interview. Everytime its their own head silohuetted but I think only Munya noticed his.
I love these so much, and I look forward to the rest. I'm not familiar with all of the participants in this upcoming series aside from Dara and Sarah, so I feel I'll learn a bit about the others.
There's the end of a show, talks funny in London iirc, which he takes it off to reveal colourful ruffled sleeves for his '2012 movie' bit as the show was ending before the encore Oh which by the way he had to wear under a suit for a full 1hr 30 minute show
I'm not sure about _every_ series but there's a lot of early series interviews amongst the Taskmaster playlists on Dave's channel (UKTV Play) as they obviously own the rights to those (or did).
I wanna know what first came to his mind when he was asked about his main concern. It was pressing enough to make him open his eyes and physically shift.
My mind is blown! Dara on TaskMaster is like.. awesome, it would be like Greg on Mock. I am looking forward to a banterload of snarkdoodles, as well as a small monologue of scientifically relevant information to do with nothing useful in particular. 🙃🤣😉
I feel like these should be released so that the last one is on the day of the first episode, not the first one 2 days before... either way, YAY! T A S K M A S T E R!
"if you miss the sleepy train at 11 you're up until 3" is the most relatable thing i've ever heard from one of these
For real though, this is what it's like. 11, or the next train at 2 for me.
update: it’s 3am
If I take the 11 sleepy train it pulls in to the station at 2 and then there's no more trains. 1am express is the one, takes you right through to the morning.
Sometimes you jump on the sleepy train at 11 but then it gets delayed for four hours :/
I envy that so much bc my sleepy train is a replacement bus service
"- I had a lovely day out.
- Oh did you? Not that lovely: one point."
XD priceless
I couldn't stop laughing! 🤣
Can't believe they got the guy from the Megabus, this is gonna be one good season.
If there's not at least one joke about this/him and Greg getting "confused" in the show, I'll be so mad😂
Megabus?? He's clearly best known for Monsoon Poultry Hospital.
@@Elwaves2925 Chickens, nurses and rain.
@@leeball4585 a man walks through the fog
@@Elwaves2925 Nurse Morag returns!
Dara's German accent is surprisingly Irish.
Surprisingly only Irish😂
Expectedly Irish
@@pia91 well if he did it perfectly everyone would uncover his secret German/Austrian heritage
It's definitely a bit Michael Fassbender.
It was a dead ringer for Ardal!
I still cannot believe Dara actually, FINALLY, is on the show. My brother and I became fans of his from Mock the Week and his stand-up shows during the 2000s, and remain so to this day. This is already my most anticipated series of the show so far
I honestly thought he had been already! But yes, this should be great, I'm excited :D
Must be needing to branch out now MTW's finished. 😵💫
So good
With Fern Brady no less, there's gonna be a lot of foreign viewers getting stumped by their accents.
They need to have on the show
Stephen Fry
Susan Calman
James May
Peter Kay
On the show
The interviews getting posted makes it REALLY real, I'm so excited 😍
Also, I thought little Alex was already pretty sassy last series but sneaking in a "are you going to report me?!" not even 30 seconds in... that bodes well for us (and awful for him) for this series - and I.can.not.wait!🎉
What is that a reference to? 🤔
"I had a lovely day."
"Not that lovely. One point."
"No, that always happens after that question."
Alex out here playing fast and loose with the ghost-summoning questions.
I hope it does, jaja
Dara didn’t doubt that… only on Taskmaster 😂
I love how he just rolls with that completely deadpan 😂
"Responsibility"
"Buuuugggghhhh...."
Same Dara.
I made up several full seasons of Taskmaster contestants in the past, and I am BEYOND excited to see Dara O'Briain and Sarah Millican on, as they were high up on my list of contestants I wanted to see. Should be a terrific season.
omg Sarah Millican is on season 14?? I CANNOT wait, she's so great.
@@ktollefson15 I can see Sarah getting a LOT of re-quotes from Greg in the studio.
Ohh she's one of my faves! The line up looks really nice :)
I literally went "Oooo, Sarah Millican??"
Some people I'd like to see on it.
Russell Kane
Jennifer Saunders
Nick Helm
Henning Wehn
Rebecca Front
I wish this was longer. It’s like the most laid-back sparring match I’ve ever seen 😊
So happy to see Gru on Taskmaster finally!
He was channeling Gru so hard when he did the catwalk on Would I Lie To You.
Looks like somebody’s bleached the minions.
"I can't be both Gru _and_ the minions!"
@@GrantQuinn1 Hahaha, beat me to it^^
you mean the mega bus man?
I've never seen anyone break Alex's stone faced demeanour so many times within 8 minutes
Genuinely don't know if Dara's gonna ace most of the tasks...or be this series' David Baddiel
Bit of both?
I think he's gonna have fun...and at the end of the day that's why we will all watch..lol
He'll do well. He's a physicist
@@MisterSolitude since when's that been a marker for anything?😂
Morgana (I think it was) fucked up the bridge-building task despite having a degree in city architecture/planning?
And it certainly won't help with "change your appearance the quickest"
...unless that was a joke and it didn't transpire in writing, then you have my sincerest apologies 😆
He'll do well in 50.0001% of the tasks.
This was bizarrely relaxing. I could have watched it for a full hour. Or at least 15 minutes.
Alex's tenor and tempo always produce relaxation.
"Are you gonna report me?"
"To who?"
"...t-to me."
😂
Oh my God I am SO excited to watch Dara do Taskmaster
Me Too!
Sandstorm?
I don’t have a fear of clowns, but that one behind Alex is menacing.
Yes, straight out of a Stephen King movie. Argh!
Glad to see the minibus man finally on the show
Extremely excited for the series
This is going to be another amazing series. Y'all have a knack for getting me to laugh out loud. Can't wait to fall in love with the Series 14 cast.
Good to see Paul Chowdhry again
Took me a second to work it out but great comment award goes to this.
3:05 They still can't take away the fact that you had a lovely day.
They can make it less lovely with fewer points though.
Love the quiet humor in these interviews 😂😂😂
Also, from the clown drawing to the one dropping things I think I'd be on edge in this room 😣
'I like them alot more than I like haunted circus props.'
6.45
Hahahaha
I love Dara. I can't wait for this.
Can't wait to see why the word association words are there - probably mostly/all related to series 14 tasks!
Those (I mean, ducks are a given) or the whole therapist-theme even?
What? Are the interview questions ever related to anything in the tasks? I think not. Either I have been missing something very obvious from all the previous seasons or you don't know that interview task has just (not really) random questions just to communicate the general vibe of the contestants.
Can't wait to see Dara in action!
So amped for new taskmaster!
the "oh jesus" at 7:15 hit me in the soul xD That was so good
I hope this was the first of the interviews they did so they can set up that prop to fall after that question each time
Can't wait for the new series!
Little Alex has been in my dreams!!! Happy to see more bits and pieces of TM trickle across the pond!!!!
Good to know I take the same sleepy train as Dara does, it’s hell if I miss the 11 one.
Cannot wait!! Will be obsessively checking here for the upload!
Yaaaaaay, we finally get Dara! Now I gotta research season 14 😊
I will enjoy seeing Dara in taskmaster
Dara is a big brain boffin and sharp as a tack but we've seen in the past that doesn't always mean they've done well aha, will be interesting to see if he'll cave on to Greg or if he'll stand his ground as a former show host
I now rescind my statement, Dara had proven to be so good over two episodes he may end up breaking Taskmaster, everyone panic there's no time to grab your hard hats
That picture behind Alex reminds me of Paul Chowdhry during the "surprise Alex" task.
I was just thinking I'd love to see Dara on the show, now I wanna see Milton
I am very excited for the new series!
This is my favorite interview format thus far
"500,001"
"So you're pleased."
I love Alex.
Oh Crap ! I love Dara !! I hope hes as good as I think he will be
So happy Dara O'Brioin is doing this
Ooh I’m really excited for the next series now!
ever since the day I first even discovered that Taskmaster existed (they were about midway thru series 7 airing), there was one person who immediately was at the top of my list for my dream panel of contestants. And that person? Dame Judi Dench.
nah just kidding, it was Dara O'Briain
(even better, one of my other picks after just only discovering her a year ago is Fern Brady! now both in one go!)
“Responsibility?”
“Uuuuuuhhhh”
That’s one of the best answers!
I noticed Dara's head in the Rorschach test behind him, and the ducks over in the one on the right, but do you see anything in the middle 2 ink blots?
OMG OMG OMG OMG!!!
Didn't know Darah was on the new series, SO excited!
Seeing Dara in anything other than his iconic suits is jarring!
i canNOT wait for this series,,, i'm rooting for u dara !
This gives me such ASMR feelings. I’m going to fall asleep any second!! 🤦♂️🤣🤣
Weird to see Alex interviewing Greg like this... he's his boss
It's nice of the Taskmaster tho, to finally come down to the actual playing field and show the contestants how its done.
this one took me too long. :D
OmG! That was everything! I am literally so excited for Tomorrow!!!
Alex saying “I don’t know” to his own question is just ticking me off so much.
"I like them much more than I like haunted circus props"
Series 14!!!
So much Hype. The best TV show for putting celebs on the spot.
Looking forward to seeing how everyone gets along and the comedy that will come from it all
I can't get over the fact that we will never have Sean Lock as a contestant. He'd be brilliant
😭 I almost forgot we'd lost Sean, until you mentioned it 😭😭😭 (9/10 CdC is still running Sean's episodes on TV in NZ)
I love the honesty of the sleepy train... I usually don't catch it till 3...
Cant wait for this series!
I liked Dave Gorman and i also liked David badiel, Johnny Vegas and Jo Brand.
Task suggestion here:
Name: Popcorn
Set theme: Movie. dimmed lights.
Task items:
Assorted items
3+bags of popcorn kernels.
one mini popcorn machine.
The task is to pop the most popcorn.
you have 5 minutes to prepare and 5 minutes to pop the popcorn.
each kernel poped is a point.
each unpoped kernel that is placed in the finishing ball is -5 points.
edit: bonus points for best flavor.
Yay! Dara’s going to be great!
“I have been accused of that before” I don’t know if anyone will ever truly appreciate Alex in his lifetime
Dara: *kicks circus prop*
Dara, right after: *blames it on a ghost*
Can’t wait to see Dara and Fern on this season.
I think Dara will be the David Baddiel of this season while Fern has the possibility to be the sleeper hit like Sophie last season.

Dara did better than you thought, then!
I'm so hyped to see Dara on the show
I love the way he translated Taskmaster to everyday life.
Mock the Week was my intro to British panel shows. This is full circle for me.
Nice attention to detail having different photos on the wall for each interview. Everytime its their own head silohuetted but I think only Munya noticed his.
I can't wait! Please tell me this is the first interview for series 14, I don't want to miss anything.
Yep! Definitely the first few minutes of content from s14!
I love these so much, and I look forward to the rest. I'm not familiar with all of the participants in this upcoming series aside from Dara and Sarah, so I feel I'll learn a bit about the others.
I was half expecting "Skyfall." "Done."
“You have to go now; sorry about the ghost.”
That’s how I end every dinner party.
These are wildly revealing. Also, if I had seen this earlier I like to believe it would have been obvious Dara was going to win.
It just occurred to me that I don’t think I’ve ever seen Dara without a jacket.
There's the end of a show, talks funny in London iirc, which he takes it off to reveal colourful ruffled sleeves for his '2012 movie' bit as the show was ending before the encore
Oh which by the way he had to wear under a suit for a full 1hr 30 minute show
@@chorusofoddities Dedication :)
I really enjoy these pre-show interviews things, and I wish they did them for the earlier series - the cast from series 6 would have been brilliant!
It’s entirely possible that they did, but we just didn’t see them yet. They did it for season 1 after all, and I only saw those just recently
I'm not sure about _every_ series but there's a lot of early series interviews amongst the Taskmaster playlists on Dave's channel (UKTV Play) as they obviously own the rights to those (or did).
I wanna know what first came to his mind when he was asked about his main concern. It was pressing enough to make him open his eyes and physically shift.
Hopeful about the reappearance of the circus ghost next interview.
This was hilarious! Can't wait for season 14!
"And who are these children" 🤣🤣🤣
Dara's silhouette picture on the wall!😆
Oh fucking yes!! This is going to be fucking incredible!!!
Dara O’Briain: we work so he doesn’t have to.
So glad they got the mega bus guy on here
WAIT DARA IS GOING TO BE ON THE SHOW?
This is going to be a good one.
Dara is so deserving of the series win.
You don't wanna make Dara angry, he'll go 8bit
God I love this show
Little Alex Horne looks lovely in his glasses!
"Responsibility"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuugh"
"I'll take that"
Oh my good Dara’s on Taskmaster?!
Loved it. Curious to see whether Alex's glasses are just for his psychoanalyst persona or a more regular necessity!
Was wondering the same thing 😁
Can you PLEASE upload series 13, tho? 🥺🥺 I really miss watching you every Thursday, and it would mean the world to us fans around the globe!! 💗
Is it weird I find Daras voice very soothing?
I CAN NOT WAIT TO SEE DARA ON THIS!!!!
My mind is blown! Dara on TaskMaster is like.. awesome, it would be like Greg on Mock. I am looking forward to a banterload of snarkdoodles, as well as a small monologue of scientifically relevant information to do with nothing useful in particular. 🙃🤣😉
I've seen videos of him on stage so many times, but he's so broad I never realised what a giant he is. The guy is a brick wall!
YES!
A lot of people seem to think Dara is going to win.
After this interview I think - no way. ❤️
I love Dara, can't wait to watch him on Taskmaster!
Lol, that didn't age well😂
Happy for Dara, he deserved the win:)
