      What a great idea: to have a deck of Taskmaster cards with images of different contestants on the back - they could each be depicted in one of their best or worst moments. Another few seasons, and there'd be enough for a canasta deck (double a regular deck) - with Greg and Alex as all the jokers. Or, use 2 of the jokers for them and on the other two could be the yellow plastic duck and Linda the cow.

But the show knows how to put together a good cast and this one is in the top half I'd argue!! Even if some of the tasks are a bit rough around the edges (I mean, it's series 17) the chemistry and banter from this series is amazing.

      I don't think John Robins is any less competitive than Ed, but maybe he doesn't show it quite in the same way. Personally, I didn't mind Ed. I also think the competition is not quite as stiff in S17. Joanne and Steve are good, but John is already 10 points ahead of Joanne and 13 of Steve. Even at the end, Ed was fewer than 10 points away from both Rose and Katy. (And Katy was sick during the studio recordings.)

      Huh interesting. John feels to me has a level of intensity that far surpasses Ed, it's just not expressed outwardly. He holds all of it inside and creates this aura of still air in the studio. It's very similar to Mae from series 15. Personally I enjoy it more when someone like Ed or Iain let it all out. It creates funnier studio interactions to me. But that's just preference.

    "The load is on his chin--" Greg, unable to keep the sophomoric joy from saying this about (his crush) Nick. It's nearly CRIMINAL in that this statement came 'naturally'.. and he's SO transparent about his bias over his Nick - Love and Steve - Hate.
    It makes them being teamed up that much more exciting!!
