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.
the contrast between Katy saying "hello sweetheart" when she sees Rose and Jo saying "oh good god it's David Baddiel"
And then proceeding to have a lovely half hour together ❤
To be fair, that’s probably how everyone reacts to seeing David Baddiel. 🤷🏻♂️
I can't wait to see Rose on Taskmaster Kids, which starts filming in a month!
@@MyHouseOnTheMoon Rose as the Taskmaster and Mike Wozniak as the assistant with KIDS doing the tasks could easily be some of the best television in TV history! I’m SO excited, man!
😊
Something about David wearing a colander his head like a conspiracy nut fighting an imaginary war while jo threateningly whispers guantanamo bay is exactly what I needed today
Gotta keep those nanobots out
It was like an episode of X Files with senior Dave and Gilliand

I swear on my mum's life that that line was the line of the series so far. Cross my heart and hope to die 😁
David & Jo doing the scavenger hunt their way is one of my favourites task performances ever. To paraphrase Mike Wozniak: You can't take away from them that they had an absolutely lovely day.
For the next 5 minutes, it's easy streets...
Tick tock, it’s be as slow as possible O’clock.
Exactly what I was thinking
I read that as Mike Wazouski and I was staring into the distance, confused, running through monsters inc and university for 3 minutes
@@samkelly4132 Mike Wazowski would be a great fit for Taskmaster
Alex calling Katy, Rose and Ed the excitable pups followed by the shot of them running all giddy was just perfect.
I HONESTLY NEARLY SAID THAT!!!

The editors really are the unsung geniuses of this show.
Putting Jo and David in a team together was a stroke of genius. They absolutely weren't the best team in terms of points but they were the team I had the best time watching :D
Absolutely, the clever one who can't be arsed, and the blur one who can't figure out anything.
Jo and David, Hugh and Mel - older generation teams are my favourites
@@anam00090 Lee and Mike as well! ❤️
I wish Lisa and Tim had also been grouped together, with Asim switching teams - I feel they'd have a different, weirder dynamic than what they ended up having
Old married couple
"Maybe the real treasure was the sandwich we made along the way"
- Jo Brand & David Baddiel
That made me laugh entirely too much. XD
"I did know we were doing it against the clock and I didn't give a fuck" Jo is just a gem.
Jo and David are one of the best teams in Taskmaster history. They quite simply want to have a good time and winning is secondary to that
It was really wholesome to watch.
Just two old pros, longtime friends or colleagues enjoying getting paid to spend a day together.
I love the “older people vs younger people” tasks. The older ones are always just there to have a good time, meanwhile the younger ones run around trying their best to do well. Reminds me of life in general. The older folks have proven themselves already, so they’re taking it slower. The younger ones still have a lot to prove so they’re doing their best.
"I can tell you that the time to beat was 36 minutes and 26 seconds."
Ed, Katy and Rose: *nervous laughter*
and Katy and Rose exchanging a look as well xD
David and Jo were the best on screen pair since, you guessed it..... Mel and Hugh
Bless Mel and Hugh. They were so sweet.
I think you mean Mel and Ügg
@@EverSnaxolotl, featuring Tugtemester
I'm just glad I know who you are talking about...
I love this show
Desky!
You just know that James Acaster would've said demeaning within 2 minutes of starting that task
That's true !
Not even to translate "umiliazione", he would have just declared the task demeaning
Haha. So true..
One of his favorite words. This task must be a subtle homage to James.
And Rhod would have a breakdown trying to outsmart the system
That wholesome but messed up effort of Ed pulling Alex out of the bin tho

Where there was a task I missed where she had to scream the opposite of what she was doing?
@@DeathnoteBB They never actually explained what was written on the tasks that they each got when they split up, but presumably they had to yell the opposite of what they were supposed to do.
I can’t decide if Jo’s brain immediately coming up with ‘Guantanamo Bay’ is terrifying or hilarious.
i thought jo and david's choose your own adventure task was genuinely pleasant to watch, they looked like they had a good time and it was nice to see
I say they won the task. Because they didn’t have to run around like chickens with their heads chopped off.
You can tell Rose is a fan of Jo, all through the sanitary bag segment she was hanging onto every word
Jo is a legend to many of the younger comics, and for female comics too (one of the pioneers in a way).
She's a great storyteller
Who isn't a fan of Jo?
@@bloodline1158 unlucky
@@bloodline1158 then enjoy that 👍 life is short
I feel like Greg is literally such a sweetheart so randomly - this is the 2nd episode in a row where he's given the prize task 1st place to the handmade item. In the last episode, it was Katie's teapot that she made and this time Rose's crocheted bag - so cute.
Definitely yes. *Mostly* seems to be won over by genuine effort. Some of the time..... 🤣🤣
and he called the episode winner lovely both times!
That team task was absolutely incredible. I also found it so funny that both Jo and Ed said "Dogging"
Jo said dogging, not David!
@@rynabuns Half year later, I barely remember this episode but that does sound right to me!
"Do you like cats?"

39:46 I love the fact that Alex only complimented Jo's lovely little ball arrangement because it was the only one that made sense for the second task!
Oooh that’s clever 😮
“Everything I Did, I Did to Bins I Thought He Might Be In”
Alex: I love that song
Life lesson for today: "I knew we were doing it against the clock and I didn't give a fuck!"
That is very much Jo's brand.
A great mantra to live by, really
They knew exactly what they were getting themselves into putting Jo on this show and damned if it didn't pay off in all the right ways
I can't get over Ed Gamble's borderline maniacal eyes😂
They scream *_"THE PODCAST IS MINE!"_*
David Baddiel and Jo Brand doing a bargain hunt is the best part of this season, you can't change my mind
A lot of Jo Brand is the best part of the season.
The puppies chanting "humiliation!" in unison was something special.
I love how the old couple had a wonderful time doing the treasure hunt with a delicious sandwich and a cuppa tea, having a good time doing tasks, and the young three had the most stressful afternoon possible.
Amazing how different people deal with the same tasks
I'm mostly amazed at how close that task was!
"Some kind of sudoku bullshit."
Straight into the hall of famous taskmaster quotes.

@@shr-me Thank you homie🙌
@@shr-me 20:30 “some kind of sudoku bullshit”.
Why can nobody say sudoku properly? Su-do-ku. Not suh-doo-koo.
@@garethrobinson4389 David said bollocks and Greg misquoted him.
The way Ed just bursts out into actual hysterical laughter seeing David's drawing never fails to make me smile
Greg helping the crowd help them is hilarious 😂 "I think you have to shout their name before shouting the color!" 😂 Then the crowd being like oh yeah, good point, and actually doing that...😂 man, this season of taskmaster is actually filled with some really wholesome moments. Last season I felt like some of them never really did enjoy being on the show, this season they all seem to be having so much more fun
I agree , but I thought season 7,, were particularly nasty , rude, bad mannered , etc .
Yeah season 8 had some bad apples for sure
Season 7 was amazing. In 8, a few very competitive people made it less likeable. Not gonna name, but rhymes with poo
I liked all seasons but this one immediately feels like there is a chemistry, while for the previous season it took a bit to get that.
Katy Wix is so funny, so deadpan. She looks like she slowly realizes she might enjoy the show, and she relaxes more and more with each episode, I love it!
It's not that well-known, but Katy is autistic, so that might explain why she sometimes looked awkward in the studio. A lot of people noticed this about Fern Brady in the most recent series, who also has autism.
Then again Joe Thomas spent 90% of the studio portion in series 8 looking like he had no idea where he was (until Erasergate happened, then he really started to relax) and he's neurotypical.
Checking out people's Wikipedia articles can sometimes give me a sense of the people I'm watching. Like David being an old songwriter who's largely renowned, etc
Jo and David during that team task were so fun to watch. They looked like they were having a lovely time.
You can't take that away from them, to reference Mike Wozniak.
Rose’s solution to the ball task makes me realize they could have just mashed everything together, flattened it and put it in the bin. None of the instructions were mutually exclusive
they had to be the right shape and location at the end of the task, unfortunately something can't be smashed flat while at the same time being a ball. two thirds is still good though
@@jondw they could've flattened the balls and then put them together almost like an onion to form a ball, though. I think the only instruction speaking against it is that it must be one big "blue" ball
@@cmk1309 41:00 the only time that matters what shape location they are in is the end. Though the specification that the big ball must be blue suggests that it would be best to flatten them before putting them in the bucket as apposed to balling them up
That's what I thought and arguably a good solution but arguably not. I would had done it anyway assuming I also had thought it in the heat of the moment.
It’s like a family holiday where the game was set up for everyone but it was really meant to distract the hyper children by giving them something to do while the adults pretend to be involved but just chat
I've been slowly working my way through these full episodes and as a teacher I love how Greg always asks what we learned each time. I know he used to be a teacher and is just spinning off that, but the silliness of it all always make me smile.
rose looked so genuinely happy when greg said he had a respect for crochet now
Jo Brand couldn't give a shit attitude mixed with David Baddiels ineptitude makes such a fantastic combination 😂
In 2 episodes David has reached Phil Wang and Nish Kumar territory... Love it
I love how Ed just enjoys being there
I love those types. Ed Gamble, Nish Kumar... I'd have to go back and rewatch some other seasons though.
I mean he was the one who helped Mark Watson stealing Greg's trousers. So he must be pretty excited to be there now
Jo and David forgetting about the task to make themselves a snack........yeah I get that.
That was the task
What wasn't the task: "I really would like a cup of tea." "I'll put the kettle on."
@@SennaAugustus tea is not a snack
@@K.TH-cam2 The task was to make a sandwich, not eat
everyone had to have a bite though, the puppies read out the whole thing
Mel&Hugh, David&Joe, Lee&Mike, Jessica&Kerry
They really know how to make pairs
And when it comes to teams: James, Phil and Rhod; David, Al and Paul
NISH AND MARK
@@K.TH-cam2 Oh yeah, how do I forget that legendary pair!
the genuine delight with which both teams greeted each other warmed my cold heart
The juxtaposition of the exuberant hugs of the team of three with Jo's immediate "Oh good god, it's David Baddiel." gets me every time.
Katy is the most unexpectedly humorous contestant of all time.
Absolutely agree!
I see a lot of potential in this Ed boy. Could even see him working with the Taskmaster team in some capacity.
Like with some sort of radio show?
@@neithere Nah, that'd never work
Life has many doors, Ed boy!
When Alex calls him "Little Ed Gamble" it's pretty clear he knows about Gambles shameless fan status.
Ed Gamble's portrait of the Taskmaster looked SUSPICIOUSLY like a portrait of Ed Gamble !
The best part of every Thursday
Only part of Thursday that matters.
Preach it brother
But it's Friday. oO
Is there new episode every Thursday?
that 'Demeaning' task was such a riot!
Imagine that with last seasons bunch! There was a bit more of a "toxic competitivene disunity" in those team tasks, and a lot less lovely breaks for tea
Jo and David having a lovely time as some pensioners on Taskmaster The Elderly. Just amazing :)
A quote that perfectly encapsulates David Baddiel's performance from the man himself.
"'Alex is Odd'...I'm guessing that means he's in an even one"
I'm sure this connection has been made already, but I realized the other day that this show is basically the definition of "play stupid games, win stupid prizes"
Going from Series 8, where the team tasks stressed me out just WATCHING them to Jo and David just having a nice little snack together really healed my heart.
What I learned today: Jo Brand’s comedic persona is much better suited for Taskmaster than it is for QI.
I find that Taskmaster mostly brings out the best in contestants. Even those I don't otherwise like. (I do love Jo Brand, though)
I wish they did a whole series of “choose your own adventure tasks” tiny micro tasks that can mess with people over a longer period of time
There is such a contrast between Ian and Lou in series 8 being super competitive and Jo and David here…. Such a breath of fresh air lol
I fall in love with the contestants every series, but moving me from "never heard of" to "most loved" is Rose Matafeo. What a lovely woman! A charming group this year, but Rose is special.
This year? Taskmaster is twice a year. But yeah, Rose is a goddess
lol, I guarantee Alex's bit about the 3v2 team format "and nobody ever calls to complain" was directed at Iain Stirling.
I suspect he just saw the comments on Reddit and youtube, it's almost like people don't realize that this is less of a competition and more of an experiment to see how much comedians would demean themselves to get a plastic head that doesn't even look like Greg's
Huh what why
@@jlkjlkjkljklj9162 To be fair, the uneven teams were kind of an issue in series 10.
David Baddiel looks like John Oliver's divorced older brother who's moved back in with his mum
Coulnd agree more!
Yoooo. Why is this so accurate tho
That's who he keeps reminding me of! Thanks! I couldn't figure out why he seemed so familiar sometimes
Oh man, Greg and Alex's little shared laugh at 3:47 "Five...Feels like you should have five" was just utterly delightful
That was amazing! Love when Greg just throws LAH a curveball
Those hugs at the start of the group task were so wholesome
Not knowing much about this series' cast made me a bit worried I wouldn't enjoy it, but 2 episodes in and I think this might be my favourite one yet.
It's one of my favourite series.
There were a total of three names I knew of prior to this show.
Greg Davies, the absolutely legendary Frank Skinner, and Paul Sinnha.
Thank Frank for helping to get this show off the ground, and here's hoping to many more seasons of shenanigans!
23:26 WOAH ED! XD That is James Acaster Circle levels of savagery!!
How dare you even speak!
I just cried tears of laughter over the team challenge. It was one of the best things I've seen😂
I know right!, both teams were so funny in very different ways.
Second episode in and I already adore all these contestants. David and Jo just having a lovely time on the team task, while Ed, Katy, and Rose were all super excited (did you see how visibly thrilled Rose was to see the others? my heart can't take it); they were such different energies but both incredible.
Do you know how much social engagements I had to deny to make that bag? NONE!
Jo is easily becoming my favorite contestant. The genius Greg portrait, "guantanamo bay", her not giving a single fuck... i am in love
it's a nuclear power plant
Oh man.. real audience makes the show so much better
Ed, Katy, and Rose's task was like a weird horror movie with a lot of deja vú in it
Their task needed Benny Hill music over it.
Reminded me of the Groundhog day, they got stuck in the loop
love the team task.
team 1: what a lovely day, let's have a snack, have some tea
team 2: AHHHHH! RUN RUN RUN!
David and Jo in that team task is one of the most underrated moments in taskmaster 😂 I love it so much
I've watched every episode of this show at least twice, and I only just now noticed that Little Alex Horne's chair has kitty faces on the arms.
Chair changes over time!
@@egyptiansushiwait what?
Oh dear, now I'm going to have to rewatch all the series to compare the chairs! Oh no~!

Across the pond here. Dont know most of the people, or what they are famous for, but I feel like this show introduces me in the best way possible to all of them. I just love laughing at their antics! Thank you you bloody funny brits!
The treasure hunt group task always always leaves me in hysterics, well to be fair this was a very good lineup, espiacially their interaction with each other.
Greg was so sweet when he said "To identify which bin he was in, not just to hurt him!" 🥰😍
i feel like it's what i comment every episode, but godbless the taskmaster team for uploading these
It really can't be said too many times 😊
Can't be said enough!
@@carolemercier7704 ah yes it can. It can.
It's how as someone from The Netherlands can actually watch it, all those UK services don't exist here, especially not Channel 4 where it now is.
Watching the bit w the sour candies it hit me (again) Alex came up w this show and put himself in that position all for our entertainment. What a legend!
“I did know we were doing it against a clock, and I didn’t give a *fuck*.”
I love Jo Brand so much. This season’s cast is amazing.
One of the funniest episodes of Taskmaster ever.
I agree, every single task in this episode haf me cackling
The captions messing up and spelling his name as Egg Gumball is so unnecessarily funny
i really wasn't expecting to like Jo because on other shows I just personally don't get her humour but i'm really growing to like her on this
Same!
I like that she's fairly easy going. There are some guests that feel like they're trying way too hard to "act like a comedian" but come off as fake instead.
@@Kyrieru absolutely love that she realised the task was timed and decided to make a lovely cup of tea anyways
That's a plus point of Taskmaster, in all the other shows, the panelists have to put out their material fast, they fight for the spotlight in a way. But the way Taskmaster is structured, there are a lot of opportunities for people to let their authentic self out.
i disagree, so far she has just been lazy and boring... don't really get the hype I see for her in the comments, might just be me I guess
u could big brain that last task by at least getting 2 out of 3 right by flattening all of them and putting them in the bucket
That's what rose did.
She put all the balls in bucket and got 33% right
even bigger brain is making one big ball, flattening it, then putting it in the bucket ;)
@@piderman871 if you flaten it its not a ball anymore
@@comette1991 well it’s not a “good” ball anyway.

this series has already become my favourite series of taskmaster.
diverse, hilarious and perfect casting. a great clash of style and comedic humour. just fucking great.
well done lil ally horn.
Is it just me that loves it whenever Alex says, all the information is on the task.
Did someone else's cheekbones contract when Alex ate those sour toffees or is it just me!
I've an ulcer at the moment and I could feel it growing in sympathy! 🤣
Oh I wish I could have had five !
Sour is a nice tasty... I love that feeling right up until you get that sharp pain right behind your bottom rear molars !
david and jo doing the best thing ever by kicking back and enjoying a sandwich while taking their time is the bestest thing that could ever happen in a stressful competition. really lovely.
I have already laughed harder at this season than I did during all of the previous. The energy in studio is so much better as well.
This series is rewatchable, with a really lovely cast and great studio energy (probably thanks to some genuine friendships). Series 8 was painful, in my opinion. Which is a shame as the format is watertight, and there were some really interesting tasks. This series is comfort viewing for me 😊
I wish they had pointed out David trying to call Alex while wearing the stethoscope and pointing the end at the bins as if that would help in anyway. Not only did he make it harder to hear anything, but he also removed the ability to tell where any sound he might hear comes from.
Only 2 episodes in and I am developing a Taskmaster crush on Katy Wix. First of all, her task outfit is really cool (it's fun, it's safe, and it's visible!), the way she takes on the tasks is pretty much exactly what I think off when I hear the tasks read out loud, and she seems to be pretty quick witted as well.
Oh well, just another contestant added to the ever growing list of crushes developed during this show...
This might be the Most hilarious Episode of all seasons so far... Absolutely brilliant
Jo Brand whispering "Guantanamo Bay" is definitely on my Top 5 Taskmaster moments ever
God bless taskmaster! Its like a therapy for me.
I'm not sure anything will ever beat David and Jo in that team task for me again. I cry laughed.
Jo Brand and David Baddiel are such a joy throughout this series!
How very foolish of me to start putting on my mascara as they were revealing David’s portrait
Jo’s line “I didn’t give a fuck” is why I enjoy her so much as a taskmaster contestant.
David not realizing the task was timed while Jo did but didn't give a shit truly sums up both of their characters.
I just realised how tall rose is.
