Bridget's step counting walk was the funniest thing I have seen in years. I laughed so hard I had to pause and take a break, I thought I was going to die lol
There's a bit of prisoner's dilemma to that task. After all, on your turn, you can only either guess a name, or ask a question. If you ask a useful question, that means you've both skipped your chance to guess the name, and given all the other players a chance to benefit from the answer before you do. As such, the best personal strategy is to just always guess names, and if you do ask a question, make sure it isn't a useful one. However, like the prisoner's dilemma, if everyone adopts the best *personal* strategy, then no-one actually benefits. All the poor questions means no-one has any information to work from, resulting in this mess. In the end, Sophie was the only one playing the game in the intended (if personally sub-optimal) way, and only won because none of the other 4 contestants could think of a good Q name. And that is *so gratifying*.
@@AdrianWoodUKBut the prisoner's dilemma assumes the prisoner doesn't know the answer of the other prisoners. The main point is you both lie and get away, one lies and gets the full sentence if the other tells the truth, or both get half the sentence. What you mean is game theory I think.
bridget is clearly so smart and thoughtful, it is baffling and fascinating how badly she does in some of the tasks. i thought alex was going to lose his mind when he was trying to explain how she couldn't make the pedometer go up by making her steps bigger and weirder
@@xDrownedx Yeah. I'm willing to accept she's not necessarily the way she seems on this show since I haven't really seen her in anything else, but if I were to take ONLY how she presents herself on the show, she seems extremely dense (and a bit antagonistic at times).
@@criticalmoment3859 I think they are hilarious. The only issue is only really Chris seems to be playing to win. Sophie is close but I think Chris has run away with it. Judi is funny but only because of how bad she does the tasks. Bridget is funny because of her interactions with Alex and Ardle is middle of the pack
@@criticalmoment3859 Ardal and Judi stand out to me in terms of 'special'. Ardal starts off seeming like another Victoria or Johnny, but turns out to be the most unhinged and viper-tongued. Judi is just hyper antagonistic, and while there were plenty of death stares prior to this season, she consistently throws them out and regularly challenges Greg.
@@BlitzerXYZ I think Judi came in having fun, I love how shes behaving all peeved but it's honestly funny because you don't typically see that on this show, personally I just think she's playing it up as a joke
Ardal and Greg’s middle aged man to middle aged man communication is helping him so much XD Edit: you guys gotta relax, these ppl are competing for a towel
@@gmoburrito6090 I think Ardal was given a bit of preferential treatment during that season because Alex really, really wanted him on the show. Heard Alex was a huge fan of his.
@@dektarey4024 I disagree, I think his ranking is basically fair every time. Ardal is a very precise and creative person, which lends itself well to Taskmaster, for both the "follow specific directions" tasks and the "bend the rules interestingly" tasks. The only thing I could see here being questionable is the tea towel, but like... tea towels really are EXTREMELY relaxing. Especially when the other contestants are bringing in a vibrator which is arousing and exciting, not relaxing; and a cat cafe voucher, which is just really low effort. If anything Judi got a bit screwed, I think she should have been 3rd behind Chris in "flowing water is relaxing but also makes you need to pee in the middle of the night" land. I think Sophie really should have been last for just missing the point of the task, and Ardal is a rational 1st thanks to tea towels being genuinely cozy af and his strong explanation/defense of his selection.
@@gmoburrito6090 A big and very important part of Taskmaster is knowing that you are pitching everything to Greg, not some anonymous/impartial judge. If you make Greg laugh, you're generally good. Unless he thinks it's funnier to punish you for it.
Chris quickly became one of my favourite contestants in the entire history of the show right there next to acaster. Between the sauge mixer and the ballbasket he truly embodies the spirit of the show.
Ardal's cement mixer task is something straight out of a Hitman assassination. I can just imagine Dianna popping up saying "well Agent 47, it looks like Linda has played a part of the syndicate's foundation in more than one way now."
@@bcaye I'm sure she perfectly understood what she was doing. I've watched her interview task a million times, she's definitely doing it on purpose to wind up Alex.
@@neithere given how she finished the task, i wonder if that was the plan all along. Move as much as she could without triggering the pedometer for funsies, then do the bit.
The sausage game is my favorite thing that has ever happened on Taskmaster. I've watched it over and over, and laughed so hard that i've peed a little, every time.
I love that Quentin's turntable had a red Q on it. There's no way the contestants would be able to see it, but the attention to detail for the audience (knowing that there's an aerial camera) is worthy of applause
Love the detail of in the overhead shot, you can see in the live task the platform the man is on is a certain letter. The attention to detail in this show is unrivaled.
I was wondering why they'd put a mark on the spinning base in such a random position, and even thought that it was suspiciously looking like a Q, but since contestants shouldn't have been able to see it I kinda dismissed it
@@MrCh0o Alex usually credits the show's director, Andy Devonshire, for stuff like this - it's for the viewers. Like 201 on the shed's roof in CoC 1 in "What's in this briefcase" task
Fun fact: This is the first time all 5 contestants won exactly one task - Ardal won the prize task, Chris won the cement mixer task, Bridget 'won' the pedometer task, Judi won the meeting task and Sophie won the live task.
I just noticed that in the live task, the rotating platform has the letter "Q" on it, can be seen at 39:32! Would've saved a lot of time seeing that but honestly who would've thought of that angle? And we wouldn't have gotten the hilarious "Is your name Pimpernickel" haha
I think this is probably the best episode of Taskmaster tbh. Especially if you include the outtake of Judi introducing her prize lol. I can only imagine how long the taping was considering that and the studio task lmao.
Id love to see an episode where they suprise the guests with Greg himself doing the tasks. But instead of actually competing he walks in and does exactly what needs to be done instantly and gets an unprecedented 6 points for perfectly executing every task, demonstrating his dominance over the contestants.
The sausage mixer had me in such hysterics my entire chest and abdomen hurt. Between this and the turtle basket game, Chris loves to come up with weird little games and I think TM should hire him on to come up with tasks because those were both great.
This is one of my favorite live tasks ever. The moment you realize why the guy reacted the way he did when when Judi miraculously guessed "Quantum", to Ardal screwing up the most basic job of asking a question and making Chris blow a gasket, to the editing of people guessing names and him repeatedly saying no. So goood
When he made an very long pause to answering if his name was Quantum I just knew it must be Quentin and it is crazy that none of them picked up on that. 👀👀

ARDLE WASHING LINDA'S HAIR IN THE CEMENT MIXER-- I'M CRYING ---- ARDLE And I didn't expect to be gasping a few seconds later at the sausage grab. My stomach hurts from laughing; wiping away tears.
I'm still baffled about the tiebreak. Alex's stated results are WILDLY different from what's shown. The VT shows Chis going from F#2 to A4, or ~16 "notes" using Alex's system, while Sophie only goes from A3 to A5, or 14 notes. Unless they're a) counting the barely discernible subharmonic from Sophie's growl (A2) as a note or b) scoring it on other attempts that weren't played in the VT, I have no idea what is going on.
If I had a nickel for every time a contestant made sausages spin for a task, I would have two, which is not much. But it's weird that it happened twice.
This episode is one of the funniest of the show!! Between Chris' sausage game, Bridget walking or Ardal tea towel and funny remarks... The banter between all the contestants is also the best in this series!
"No, you got beaten by everyone!" is a Taskmaster moment I won't soon forget.
That was by far the funniest line in Taskmaster to me.
Made that much better coming from ever sunny, sweet Chris.

I thought he was named Quinn
After Q I was waiting for "Are you sure your name isn't Quantum"
My current theory is that Judi is a medium, just a very, very bad one.
"...have you ever walked?" lol
Greg delivers those kind of lines so well.
Sausage Mixer is the type of thing that SHOULD be meant when people say “boys will be boys”, what an iconic idea
It's definitely what *I* mean when I say that.
The hardest I have ever laughed from this show.
"Sausage Mixer" is just a more formal version of the term "sausagefest."
I laughed so hard at Sausage Mixer, I almost wet my pants.
@@puttsmcgee7067 I was laughing so hard I couldn't see, this show sometimes, wow
Actually lovely that the editors included more of Alex laughing freely
Yeah I'm really enjoying that too! It's very infectious.
I think the fact that they've never shown it before is what makes it funnier
Love him losing it in the van watching Ardel washing hair... :D
I don't think it's just the editors-- I actually think he's gaining confidence as a presenter, too. I get the impression that Greg has been working with him off camera, as his criticisms in the early series' were pretty much from the heart.
Watching him duck head in the caravan to partially shield his laughter with Ardel brings me so much joy.
Bridget's step counting is one of the funniest things I've ever seen
she's so painfully dumb, it hurts to watch her do anything. unless you're laughing at her there's nothing funny about her
Sometimes I wonder if she's just fucking with us 😂
Her "walking" was, somehow, MUCH funnier than Cleese's from that Python sketch. I didn't think that could be done.
Also, it's hereby officially known that Alex Horne can be irritated on camera. She's done it twice, so far and I didn't know that was at all possible to begin with. Chapeau, Bridget Christie!
@@TroubleToby3040 John Cleese's silly walk was intentionally silly, Bridget Christie's was her completely failing to do something stupidly simple. lol
Now that I'm past the 4th episode, I can't stop laughing at Chris's "No way!" during the intro.
To this day I still mimic his “No Way!” whenever I say those two words
I think one of my favorite things about Taskmaster is how apprehensive I get seeing a new cast of people I barely know, then slowly falling in love with all of them as the season progresses. I was legitimately crying with laughter this episode.
It's like Doctor Who; however much I loved the last, I always end up loving the new one just as much

Between the sausage mixer and Ardal trying to wash a dummy's hair but making it look like he's pushing her through a woodchipper, this episode was amazing.

What kills me is that Chris and Alex just... decided that they couldn't touch their sausages with their hands. It wasn't a rule and yet.
@@danielleasaurus I thought that rule was already the case for television.
Alex kept having to duck his head while laughing at Ardal doing CPR on the dummy while washing her hair. I was dying!!!!!

Chris should become a consultant on the show, he comes up with fun games.
There’s truly nothing better than Chris’s sausage mixer game. I could watch it forever.
„No waaayy“ 😂
or the level of enthusiasm that Alex embraces the sausage mixer.. phenomenonal spirit 16:31 and a battle harden competitor for 13 seasons
@@MedEvil1c Watching Alex's enthusiasm for this particular game made me imagine that this was the moment Taskmaster was made for. Thirteen and a half seasons and he finally got to play a sausage-bobbing game with high-velocity meats.
I couldn't watch that game forever. The laughter from watching it for a couple of minutes nearly killed me.
Imagine playing a game where the creator of the game doesn't dare to play it.
"I'm as surprised as you that I find a dildo less relaxing than a tea towel."
One of the greatest out of context quotes.
I honestly think it has all of the context you could need.
Maybe it's a UK naming thing, but no woman I've ever met would even TRY to use a Hitachi-style vibrator as a dildo.
I don't know, I think dildos are pretty exciting
Pretty fabulous in context, too...
That made me laugh bc... that is not a dildo lol
Ardal forcing a dummy's head into a c ement mixer whilst straddling them is possibly one of the funniest things I've seen on this show lol
I can’t remember the last time i laughed that hard. That was a 5 pointer for me
Alex: You haven't taken any normal steps!
Briget: *proceeds to audition for the ministry of silly walks*
Chris just takes every chance he gets to play fun little games with Alex, it's very wholesome
10:47 Alex ducking down to hide his laughter is my favorite moment 😂
I’m excited to see it & compare it with him doing it during the Series 12 walkie-talkie puzzle task, that was amazing.
While this show has undoubtably brought him financial security, I also imagine it is moments like this that generate resentment from his spouse if he ever uses the phrase "I'm going to work now".
I like how hard Alex tried to play "Sausage Mixer" he fully committed to trying to get a bite of the sausage while the mixer was spinning!
Sophie's cement mixer task was such a clever response to Alex not being able to do an impression of her, well played!
Poor Girl she seemed genuinely sad, that he didn't do an impression of her
I thought that Greg was going to break out his Chris Eubank impression.
Listening to her do the setup at 12:50 I swear I'm hearing Arnold Rimmer.
My takeaway from the cement mixer sausage game is that if Chris was on the task designing team he'd probably kill a contestant
The ministry of silly walks is happy to announce their new chairwoman
The dramatic zoom in on Ardal's face when he says he's resigning from the club kills me every time.😆
It also reminded me, just a little, of DI Jack Mooney calling the suspects together on Death In Paradise.
“IF YOU SAY IT’S ONLY 139 I- YOU’RE GONNA- I’M- I don’t mind actually I’m just really happy in life.”

She was trying so hard to be outraged for effect but it just wasn't happening xD

After that moment I would have guessed it

Her steps really fitted well with her outfit.
My God, that final task really made me question the sanity of the entire group. A+ editing though!

And I didn't expect to be gasping a few seconds later at the sausage grab. My stomach hurts from laughing; wiping away tears.
The orchids/or kids joke was brilliant
By the 50th question i think they doubted it would ever end.
Taskmaster Thursday is my relaxed and floppy thing.
Alternate Episode Title: Welcome to the Sausage Arena
I've been watching the series 13 outtakes. it all makes perfect sense now
@ 26:56 was the most heartwarming instance of rage I've ever experienced...
When she said Quantum and Quentin paused… I knew his name immediately 😂
This is the most hilarious episode of any series I loved it from start to finish
Everytime Greg stands I'm equally shocked and horrified
love the ministry of silly walks moments. Gotta get those last 10 steps in
I'm still baffled about the tiebreak. Alex's stated results are WILDLY different from what's shown. The VT shows Chis going from F#2 to A4, or ~16 "notes" using Alex's system, while Sophie only goes from A3 to A5, or 14 notes. Unless they're a) counting the barely discernible subharmonic from Sophie's growl (A2) as a note or b) scoring it on other attempts that weren't played in the VT, I have no idea what is going on.
Definitely one of the funniest episodes, this mix of people together is really great
Such an amazing sophie duker impression
Bridgette looks like an album cover in every shot, just great.
"You can't have a cult No. 1 hit. Sure you can. it's a No. 1 hit only among cults
Some of the contestants completely break down during this show, but Bridget is breaking Alex's psyche. Revenge of the candidates
41:01 I can't believe how close Judy got with that one!
The final task definitely needs the extend version of the full task on TH-cam to hear all the questions lol but thats just my opinion
10:30 using sally's marmite to wash their hair i see
If I had a nickel for every time a contestant made sausages spin for a task, I would have two, which is not much. But it's weird that it happened twice.
This episode is one of the funniest of the show!! Between Chris' sausage game, Bridget walking or Ardal tea towel and funny remarks...
The banter between all the contestants is also the best in this series!
I would LOVE to see the full length live task clip. I want to see every question they asked.
Right?
Please, taskmaster, please!
This and the aubergine task!
Oh team, you let me down today. As soon as we got to the "Quantum" moment I guessed "Quentin". Still bags of fun and enjoyment though, ta very much.
Nothing sums this bunch up better than that live task
The shocked look in Bridgets eyes when Alex tells her ""139" @26:55 just dropped me dead from laughter RIP
Alex was sooo committed to eating that sausage at his own personal risk 😂
Chris's sausage task was absolutely wondrous
I laughed myself to tears at chris Ramsay's sausage party minigame
A+ episode all around. Many great moments, really fantastic cast.
Bridget must be in the Ministry of Silly Walks 😅
