Charlotte would be perfect to be the taskmasters assistant. As taskmaster I would nominate Guz Khan - the right mixture of cheeky, playful and terrifying.
For junior Taskmaster they should get James acastor in. I think he could pull it off considering his would I lie to you story about his friend's child with the cabbage pranks.
It's kind of astounding that people would think Frankie is some kind of monster in real life. It just shows that they must not understand any of his humour, or that a 'meanly' phrased joke can come from a place of thoughtfulness.
I know a few people who know Frankie well and they all says he's lovely, a thoughtful, smart, kind guy. his jokes are a character, a style that if it was his real self he'd have had a heart attack 20 years ago. he's doing this show for his kids and he really knows how to adjust for his audience and can be very silly.
I felt the same way. When she asked if Frankie "behaved himself" it bugged me. What has he ever done but make a joke about the Queen and speak his mind regarding politics? And his stand up isn't that much darker than Jimmy Carr's, but he wears suits so he's different?...
@@AndresGomez-ct7qb I thought he would be making lots of dark humor and "am fed up of this BS" vibes at everything before remembering his kids also watch this. If we measure dark humor or offensive humor levels, I think his standup is very different from Jimmy in the delivery: Jimmy's delivery is like "am a silly harmless man" all the time, while Frankie has a bit more of a deadpan psycopath delivery. Also, are you Colombian? you have the most Colombian first + family names ever.
@@goldenpony822 Not Colombian, but Gómez is a common name in any Spanish speaking country. Also, Frankie's act in slightly different than Jimmy's, but he literally used to write for Jimmy, so they're extremely similar. Also, in his act (not mock the week compilations) Frankie's also more absurdist and does more long form jokes; his but about John Chau is still mind blowing.
@@AndresGomez-ct7qb Yeah, it's classic liberal respectability politics. They attack folks like Frankie for what they perceive as bad manners or etiquette as a proxy for attacking their actual ideas, because the ideas they're putting forward are entirely accurate and beyond reproach.
I love how The Cleaner keeps true to the source material but gives it a bit of a Britisch twist. Greg Davies is the perfect actor for the role.

Frankly, all the episodes that had exactly the same plot as in German version somehow turned out kinda fucked (especially the one with influencer). I hope season two will have more original material!
I haven’t watched the UK version yet, but what I‘ve been wondering is how Greg‘s physicality plays into the character? Schotty in the original is „the little man“, metaphorically AND in a way literally. Occasionally people don’t take him seriously, because he is not a very imposing figure. Greg Davies on the other hand… let’s say I can’t see a Nazi going on and threatening this man or his Cleaner being afraid of anyone. Does this alter how the protagonist ist perceived?
I only watched one episode of the original German version, but I don't think it was subtitled so I was only going off the visuals. But it definitely seemed like the UK was copying it directly. It's interesting as usually for me (a Brit), we're used to our own shows being horrendously adapted by America. Glad to hear we haven't done badly with The Cleaner.
@@robertbrookes2000 Well, there are a few things that fall flatt and don't work. The adaptation just has to find it's own voice, playing with a different physicality of Greg compared to Bjarne.
Frankie Boyle is a lovely guy! As is Greg one of the nicest and most humble I've ever met. The BBC scared of anything involving the truth 💯Frankie's book is really good 👍🏽 I'd recommend. Funniest thing I've ever read and fun to hear about the father he is.
Since the original of The Cleaner is my favourite German tv show (which isn’t saying much, but it’s really miles ahead of everything else) of all times, I haven’t dared to watch the UK version yet. One day I will. 💪
IMO that's a stapple of most the top comedians we see there, they know where they stand at and own it 100%. Must be good for mental health and performance, to just own it.
What a stupid question about Frankie Boyle… you know when someone’s on stage doing stand up it’s called “an act” to start with…and also, if you’ve kept up with him, his more recent stand up is a lot different…angry but pointed political and very right on
Did Frankie "behave himself"? Huh? 🤨 He's not some degenerate. I guess now anyone in the UK that makes jokes about the establishment and speaks his minds politically is stigmatized? 🙄
You are forgetting the old Frankie - before he got criticised by other comedians and re-invented himself Remember the line about Saddam's execution? The jokes pretending that famus female athletes were really male? The line about Jordan's son? Remember the rape jokes? I'm not criticising either version of Frankie - I like both - but you can't pretend he's always some kind of righteous, left-wing actiist
@@pintpot Yeah, who cars about those jokes, tho? The man literally joked about EVERYTHING (even himself) Mind you, the only times he really got in trouble was when he made the haunted queen joke and he ultimately left in protest when his jokes mentioning Palestine were censored.
@@AndresGomez-ct7qb No.There was a huge backlash against the line about Jordan's son. I can't even remember any jokes about Palestine You are inventing your own history
@@pintpot Huh? Not inventing anything. 😅 Frankie quit Mock the Week because the BBC cut out one joke about Palestine and issued an apology for another one they did air. Google it if you want, the first article that pops up is a Guardian article where Frankie called the BBC cowards for it. He's talked about it plenty since then and said he was jaded with the censorship. With his style he had plenty 'backlash', including the joke about Jordan's son ame even Richard Hammond's crash, but the ones that got actual politicians to comment and denounce Frankie were about the Queen and later him wanting to make more political jokes.

They finally found a childrens program for Charlotte Ritchie to do.
The OBVIOUS choice
Iain Stirling the CBBC legend with Hacker
"Junior Taskmaster: What's the Situation?"
❤❤ Brilliant ❤❤
Charlotte would be perfect to be the taskmasters assistant. As taskmaster I would nominate Guz Khan - the right mixture of cheeky, playful and terrifying.
I wouldn't be surprised if the kids version is Ed Gamble and James Acaster, given how much they talked about loving the show when they were on.
As often as he kept suggesting she do children's TV presenting I would hope Charlotte Ritchie was given the option first.
I think I heard on the taskmaster podcast that it's gonna be Mike Wozniak and Rose Mattafeo
@nijnij3988 it is but I can still dream!
For junior Taskmaster they should get James acastor in. I think he could pull it off considering his would I lie to you story about his friend's child with the cabbage pranks.
James as the Taskmasters assistant and cabbage boy as the taskmaster. Ultimate combo.
James would be perfect. Lol
I'd also love Ed Gamble to be involved. But if constrasted with James I'm not sure that dynamic would fit the current roles.
Wouldn't Bob Mortimer be great for junior Taskmaster 😁
James as the assistant and Russell Howard as the Taskmaster.

i love in the US and taskmaster is my comfort show. i discovered it during lockdown and i watch it daily. so excited for a new season!
Sarah Kendall was proven right to give him a pirate’s earring in her foot portrait of the Taskmaster.
junior taskmaster.. imagining alex's kids got involved. little alex's little hornes

To be fair, Greg, you have a lot farther to fall down than most of us. ba dum pssh.

You can watch anything with Bjarne Mädel in it!❤❤😅
@@sundaypeople5791 Indeed! Saw him on stage in Hamburg once, in a play written by Mizzi Meier (same author as Tatortreiniger), it was great! 😊
@@LOLrigole Film: 25 km/h von 2018 mit Lars Eidinger dazu ist auch toll, fand ich!😊
I love Davies
i love greg
love this show
Bob Mortimer for junior Taskmaster!
“I thought f*ck it.. I’ll fill his boat with p*ss.”
Greg would absolutely suit an earring! He should bring it back
JJ with the Reverse Mocha's. My favourite shoes.
Oh, I didn't know about taskmaster junior.
Does this mean Frankie Boyle is the Taskmaster for the Kids?
Russell Howard always gets kids to react well. He would be great.
Omg,lol..have they all completly forgotten about Joey in friends having a hand twin 👐😂 Vegas episode 😁
Let me guess.... The taskmaster for the taskmaster junior will be Ed Gamble?
It was actually very gracious of Greg to acknowledge he's a shit actor.
IMO that's a stapple of most the top comedians we see there, they know where they stand at and own it 100%. Must be good for mental health and performance, to just own it.
Didn’t he get famous through acting though?
"someone with younger, more youthful hands should look after the children" says BBC presenter
Saying Frankie is like his stand up character is like saying Eminem is like Slim shady 😂
Did Greg mention that he used to be a teacher he rarely tells anyone
What a stupid question about Frankie Boyle… you know when someone’s on stage doing stand up it’s called “an act” to start with…and also, if you’ve kept up with him, his more recent stand up is a lot different…angry but pointed political and very right on

The Cleaner is really awful. Bless Greg, he now has enough fame and success people let him do any old shit.
