    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.

    *SPOILER* for the final task.
    I really love Angela's narrative arc in this episode. She started out pretty rough pointswise, and by end of the cocktail task she says, "I'm so used to seeing ones that this isn't a surprise", and it was feeling a bit of a downer.. only to have her blow everyone away on the final task, coming right out of the gate pretty much unassailably close to the target. Even though she didn't win the episode, that final task victory was very satisfying, and felt like a nice boost.

    Taskmaster NZ is frankly the best international iteration from the original show. Jeremy and Paul's interactions is the best reflection of Greg and Alex's among the other imports. So much so that if there was an alternate universe that the Taskmaster brand started in NZ instead of the UK, i would believe it. Paul Williams is also the best Alex substitute so far.
    Im just happy that we can now watch this officially on TH-cam and everyone can have a treat watching Angela.

Fruit cocktail, a mix of tinned fruits, usually including: pineapple, peaches, grapes, cherries, and pear. Then you can also a cocktail of drugs to describe multiple medications used in conjunction to treat an ailment. Oh! and prawn cocktail! that's certainly not a drink
