Was definitely meant to invoke that song but maybe couldn't get around copyright? Dance of the knights is used as the theme music for the UK apprentice TV show
Aisling was obviously joking lmao jesus the men in the comments section are so ready to think women aren't funny that they believe she was genuinely offended oops embarrassing for u
Saying businessman is not sexist. Nobody is saying that. She's saying that using businessman by default, regardless of sex, may be sexist. Calling someone a man if you don't know their sex is not the same thing as calling a woman a businesswoman or a man a businessman. Besides, it was mostly in jest, it seemed like.
The task was ‘make this coconut look like a business man’ It doesn’t make any political statement. It doesn’t say business women don’t exist. Just to turn this coconut into a business man. -_-
>Calling sexist because of phrase normally accepted by society (men and women) - also coconut is a masculine noun so kekw >Doing discrimination towards men (even verbally) by enslaving by force them to drink something
I know Aisling is being sarcastic, but the supposed sexism of the suffix "-man" comes from people not understanding the history of the English language.
@@ohnoagremlin In Old English, the word "man" meant an adult person. To specify gender, you used a prefix, "wer-" for male and "wif-" for female. A "werman" was an adult male person and a "wifman" was an adult female person. The "wer-" prefix is where we get the "were-" in "werewolf," and the "wif-" prefix is where we get the word "wife." Language changes over time, so the "wer-" prefix was dropped from males and the "wif-" prefix became "wo-," but using "-man" as a suffix is a holdover that technically means "person." But like I said, language changes over time, and people who don't know or care about old meanings imagined it was sexist, and perception is nine tenths of definition, so it practically became sexist. People have tried different ways to fix this problem, but it wasn't a problem until someone decided it was. They will say "policewoman" or "firewoman," but that's awkward and doesn't work for non-binary people. "Policeperson" and "fireperson" are even more awkward. I prefer the solution that avoids using these kinds of suffix, but instead uses a gender-neutral identifier like "police officer" and "firefighter." In this case, you could say a "business executive" or "office worker."
Can we talk about how Greg and Alex will think they're in a really bad abusive relationship were Greg just shit on Alex when all Alex want is his love .... it's kinda sad really
Just something I kind of agree on with Aisling, calling everything with the suffix "man" is in modern days sexist, you may have your retorts but language is inherently connected with history, and as we are now getting to moderate equality (in developed nations at least but not exclusively) it is not practical linguistically to rename any suffix with "man" to "person", its better to just rename it entirely, yet I doubt that will ever happen, just a thought. Such as renaming businessman to "businesseur" or "businesser" just like "connoisseur" or "_____ worker"

Was she the one who failed to spell STONKS correctly?
Sally can get it
I loved Nish's "Woah! That business is doing so well!"
Just the way he said it made it hilarious to me.

Love how different all the approaches were to each other, and that they were all good in very different ways!
hahahahaha aislings was good??
Except the faminists
@@Ivy-jo7tl I'm hardly one to cheer for language policing and the like, but I think she made a cool job of it and didn't take it too seriously.
Mark always thought bigger than the show and while it may not have been rewarded in his tenure it has been rewarded in our hearts
All I’ll say is this: many of the coconuts looked like businessmen, but only one actually was one.
Nish's Mr. Coconut seems like a real catch.That coconut went to stock market today, he did a business.
Why not send him to a nutmarket?
Did he meet Mr. Adultman there?
I believe that if one has the determination to actually register a business for a coconut, then that person made the coconut into a business man
Bob’s businessman is one of my favorite moments from the show. Not quite Tree Wizard; but what is, really?

He actually made the coconut an actual businessman. He should have won.
Mark is the definite winner of that task! Aisling comes second with ferocity though! Sally completes the podium with her cuteness overload.
Nish is a blessing.
Aww, I thought the coconut owl should've done better.
Bob and Greg's back and forth is genuinely one of the funniest moments in the entire series history.
Aisling was low key serious about that Business Person comment 😂
Absolutely bollocks. It said businessman, not businessperson, unless you can't be a businessman anymore lol
Feminism aint no laughing matter, she surely proved that.
@@Dr_Hoops_McCann it surely is

Can't stop watching and laughing at Nish's business man. Hysterical!
And I’m a f**king businessman! To be fair that coconut does have the look of Alan Sugar.
If the coconut shaved, maybe...
@@kimaboe Actually its the hair that makes me think of Sugar. He's always got that stubbly look about him like he just doesn't bother with a razor.
Nish’s coconut headed man looked like the goombas in the live-action Super Mario Bros movie.
I love the part where Greg revoices the fruits. I could watch it again and again.
Mark reminds me a little of James Veitch.
He’s got this adorkable nerd charm eeee!
3:30 The task was very clear make it look like a businessman, this coconut looks like a very busty mob boss lol

Aw man, they cut Alex's business joke before the start of the clip :(
What was it?
Yeah, tell us the joke!
“I’m little Alex Horny and I’m in the business of making love. And widgets.”
Joke was "This task is like the word commerce, it really means business"
Still hoping for Alex Horne's best moments, oh great Taskmaster
maybe for his birthday, just don't tell the taskmaster because he will insist on taking all of Alex's presents :)
I've spent five hours today watching clips from this show.

It seems King Arthur was right , you CAN find a coconut in Mersia.
Hello, I'm a fucking businessman!
I, for once, do not agree with the points that are given
Sally had the best one
That think coconut picture was the best
Can someone explain Greg's "He was probably shy" joke to me lol? Around 1:51
Its a play on the word "coconut shy" which is a stool at fairs where you throw balls at coconuts to knock them down.
In short its a topical word play.

2 points - Nish
3 points - Sally
