apparently Alex's iPad is hooked up. Greg said in a behind the scenes/extra bit of a newer series, that he "only recently had realized that it does something" and is not just a prop. He's actually doing the scores on it for example.
That must require crazy multitasking skills! To be able to keep up with the scoring, verify info, and still make witty comments- he's an impressive guy.
Mel has been walking the Mumsy/Milf tightrope for like 20 years now 😂 The Chuckle Brothers were actual brothers Barry and Paul Elliott. Barry sadly passed away in 2018. They had a kids show called ChuckleVision where, despite being totally useless at everything, they were repeatedly hired in various professions and many hijinks ensued
Alex runs everything you see on the big screen from his ipad, which is crazy. Normally you'd imagine a tech crew in a control room is doing all that. But it so perfectly fits the whole "admin nerd" persona he's created.
I think there's even one episode in a later series where they make a joke about how he doesn't control anything from the iPad... and then he does it all exaggerated as part of the opening gag....
Yeah I can't imagine the multitasking skills involved, and to then keep up with witty commentary as well. And it'd be one thing if he got really good at it later and the first few seasons were him getting his feet wet, but it seemed like he was a natural with balancing everything from the get-go.
I have so many comments I want to make based on your speculations in this episode that aren't fair to make until you've seen the finale. This is honestly one of my favourite series. I know the usual standout is 7 but for me, 4, 12 and 13 are all amazing.
I believe the artwork and props from the house - from every series - are all kept in storage on a Channel 4 lot, like most cherished set pieces, along with any arty-things created by contestants - some of them even pop up in the background of the intro titles and links. They'll more than likely auction them down the line.
She's so great!! I think a few people were disappointed that I didn't know her previously judging by comments on the Ep. 1, but I know and love her now for sure ;)
Thank you, Toby, music to my ears 😁 Yeah I've really gotten into Taskmaster and the Graham Norton highlights compilations I've found. I'm hoping to branch out to more stuff, so I'm glad you're here!
@@DavidvsFilm they are children’s entertainers, maybe not exactly your taste, I’m a similar age to Joe and they were very well known throughout the 90s and 2000s. Joe is also known for cheeky protests, like when he changed his name to Hugo Boss, in protest to a copyright dispute, and another campaigns like Shell Oil or sewerage in the rivers, which I admire, bringing these issues to the attention of his audiences in a fun way. And unrelated, Hugh makes a surprise appearance in the latest James Bond film!
The first time I ever saw Mel was on an episode of The Big Fat Quiz(another British panel/quiz show you might enjoy) and I instantly liked her, she's such a sweetheart.
Thanks, Adan! Yeah, I didn't know her at all before this, but I'm quickly becoming a fan. Thanks for the recommendation, btw- I've heard great things about Big Fat Quiz show. Hope you have a good day-
What's uuuup amigo? I always respond😂😂 This season we have: Hugh; handsome, smart and likes knives. Joe; talented and the one I'd want on my team to fight the cause. Lolli; simply delightful and so chill. Nole; talented artist and an oddbird who somehow perfectly fits in! And Mel; the one that NO ONE EvER can not like, she is always so positive!!!!! Love this season...thanks again Dave for the cheer!☺️💚
@@KaiLucasZachary Because I like his videos, been one his amigos here for a few years enjoyed his and Marc's content and want the channel to grow.☺️💚 Is there something you have issue with? 🤔
I love your taskmaster videos. I like Mel Giedroyc for her positivity. Did you notice that Alex Horne always wears a tie when he his in an alone task with Mel? Someone mentioned that and I had never noticed even though I watch it a couple of times. You can see is tie in the video you made. Keep up the good work!
I do love that Joe gets to show off his artistic skills here on Taskmaster since usually he uses it for trolling, especially for profile pictures online for a tv show he did or in his specials. Also I love how much you love Hugh, he's so good on this series, but that's probably bc one of the comments he's said has become an inside joke in my family lol.
Chuckle Brothers are classic kids TV here in the UK! I think one of them had died now unfortunately but they are actual brothers and they were a sort of silly double act who had a TV show where they got into hijinks 😂
Ahhh ok thank you!! Sometimes I feel like I need to have a whole separate channel just dedicated to UK reactions haha. There is so much that I've obviously missed.
"Oh Noel.. OMG What did she do!" was my exact reaction to Mel and Noel's paintings. I think his colors were just so striking that I didn't react to how horrible hers was at first lol. Love Mel though smiles all the way through!
Noel’s art is always impressive on this show (though not that surprising considering he studied art). There was an extra task pre-season (for all) which was to paint a billboard for the new season and Noel absolutely nailed it. Might be worth checking it out. There should be videos of that on youtube.
@@DavidvsFilm the full task is sadly not on youtube anymore. But I’ve got a link for a google drive where you can see it. TH-cam is funny with links though should I send it via instagram
Damn, I wish they had brought back the "under the smock" challenge in a later series. I know it's probably not super exciting for the live studio audience, but it makes a nice show on telly. LOL
Oh Lord haha.. my crazy mind instantly goes to Mel breaking character in the last episode and ripping everyone to shreds lol. Too much reality tv for me, probably.

Alex's iPad is vital, as he is inputting Greg's scores in real time.
That's insanely impressive. I need complete silence in order to calculate the tip at a restaurant, so he's leaps and bounds above me lol
Alex runs everything you see on the big screen from his ipad, which is crazy. Normally you'd imagine a tech crew in a control room is doing all that.
But it so perfectly fits the whole "admin nerd" persona he's created.
Where'd you get that info? Pretty sure Alex himself has said the iPad does nothing.
I think there's even one episode in a later series where they make a joke about how he doesn't control anything from the iPad... and then he does it all exaggerated as part of the opening gag....

Hugh is criminally underscored throughout this entire series.
It's one of the only times that I think Greg plays up "the bit" too much and just is truly unfair to him for no reason.
This wicked part of me loooves the special extra tasks assigned to just one!!!!
Joe's smiles😂😂😂😂
GOD. yes.
I have so many comments I want to make based on your speculations in this episode that aren't fair to make until you've seen the finale.
This is honestly one of my favourite series. I know the usual standout is 7 but for me, 4, 12 and 13 are all amazing.
Thank you!! This truly piques my interest..
If it helps I’ve watched every season of this show and I still pay very little attention to the scores I just enjoy watching them 😂😂😂
That helps more than you know lol

This makes perfect sense. Thank you so much for the info!
Aw man I love Mel so much 😂😂😂
She's so great!! I think a few people were disappointed that I didn't know her previously judging by comments on the Ep. 1, but I know and love her now for sure ;)
She had a great radio show on Absolute! I downloaded it every week! Pure hilarity and genius.
“Can’t go wrong with duct tape”…..only if you’ve got the safe word established beforehand!
Hahahaha. "Toffee"
@@DavidvsFilm I’ll go with “rhododendron”.
Hi, just subbed because I like seeing people from overseas reacting to taskmaster, and after watching a few of yours I’m really enjoying it 😊
Thank you, Toby, music to my ears 😁 Yeah I've really gotten into Taskmaster and the Graham Norton highlights compilations I've found. I'm hoping to branch out to more stuff, so I'm glad you're here!
The Chuckle Brothers are a iconic TV duo, known for their slapstick routines and catchphrases, check them out!
Thank you! Yeah, I had not heard of them before.
@@DavidvsFilm No please dont check them out!
@@johnnyenglish33 What's the point of this comment? You don't like them? Fine. Why should someone not have the opportunity to form their own opinions?

"It's like the JFK assassination video."
I can honestly say I don't think I've ever heard someone make that comparison to Taskmaster before. LOL
Stop the president's car... your time starts now!

Mel would give great hugs.. I'm certain. ♥️♥️♥️✨
Haha yes!!! I agree. And I feel like also, the best gossip ;) But in a nice way.
Yay something to chill to to relax before i try to sleep
3 hours sleep in 48 is not much
Sounds like my sleep schedule. Get some rest!

Always love your reactions, thanks so much. This was such a good series, loved these 5 contestants ❤
Thank you :) ♥️ I'm definitely enjoying it so far!
In the outtakes, especially series 8, they do show us that Alex sometimes needs an extra second to work stuff out😂
Hey there!!! Thank you - glad to know he's human ;)
Glad you’re liking the show, you have some of the best reactions to Taskmaster I’ve seen
Oh wow that truly makes my day, thank you!! Yeah, honestly it's easy work with a show this good ;) Glad to hear from you!
Joe hosts a show called Travel Man. He is so darn funny. You should check it out!
Thank you so much!! I made a note ;)
Omg, that Tshirt looks amazing!!
Thank you!! :)
Greg has at least one of the big pieces of artwork in his house cos ive heard him mention it in an interview somewhere.
Oh, well... "heard him mention it in an interview somewhere" is definitely the ideal citation.
@@KaiLucasZachary lol
Hey, David. Good to see you and Taskmaster.'sup back at ya!😀
Nancy, hi!! Hope your Saturday is going well :) Thank you so much
"Oh Noel.. OMG What did she do!" was my exact reaction to Mel and Noel's paintings. I think his colors were just so striking that I didn't react to how horrible hers was at first lol. Love Mel though smiles all the way through!

How's he gonna check it out if it's not on TH-cam??? LOL
Ooooh ok thanks!
@@DavidvsFilm the full task is sadly not on youtube anymore. But I’ve got a link for a google drive where you can see it. TH-cam is funny with links though should I send it via instagram
Damn, I wish they had brought back the "under the smock" challenge in a later series. I know it's probably not super exciting for the live studio audience, but it makes a nice show on telly. LOL
As well as a popular comedian and presenter noel is an artist 🎨 so no surprises his painting of greg was so good
True! I didn’t know that going into the series, but that totally makes sense. Thank you!
Yes, "the tube" is "the underground". hehe
((no innuendos at alllllll))
The chuckle brother were called Paul and Barry, unfortunately Barry passed away
To me, to you was their catchphrase
Sorry to hear that :( Thank you for the info, though!!
S'up David! I hope you're well Hun. Love from the UK 💜 🇬🇧 -x-
Aisha!!! My fabulous friend!! :) I'm doing ok, thanks, and hopefully same on your end. Much love back from Texas
Has anyone tried the Taskmaster VR game yet? I'm curious to know....
Just for a fun Easter egg, do you recognize Mel’s footwear?
(No knowledge outside of past TM required)
I don't! And I'm glad you brought that up because I noticed one white shoe and one black shoe, but I just thought it was a fashion statement lol.
what is it i never knew haha?!
@@ednicolle2456 It’s the shoe she used in the Ep 1 live task to juice a lime.
@@erinford8138 woah thats commitment to a callback haha cheers
That’s awesome
this is unrelated to the video but i love your shirt!!
1. Not unrelated because it's in the video.
2. It's a compliment, so I don't give a damn regardless!! Thank you so much ♥️
Mel is the kindest person ever ❤😂
You should watch Mel in Unforgivable. Its kind of like a panel show but Mel is one of the hosts!
Hey i just bought that shirt! :)
Ohhh yeahhhhh!!!!! I think it's good that we're both contributing to the small struggling start-up known as Disney Inc. lol
@@DavidvsFilm lol
You're not the only one that notices Mel is nice. Spoliers if I write anymore... shh everyone.
Oh Lord haha.. my crazy mind instantly goes to Mel breaking character in the last episode and ripping everyone to shreds lol. Too much reality tv for me, probably.
You need to watch The Big Fat Quiz, hosted by Jimmy Carr. Most of the comedians on here have been on that. They take over the show. Its hilarious.
Thank you!! I bet I would love it, yes. I've enjoyed every scene I've watched him in with other things, so I would think so.
I'm curious how your affinity for Hugh will evolve over the series. hehe
Still enjoying him. I loved "Swedens!" in this last episode I just uploaded, and also how he just resigns himself to being last in the Prize Task lol.
New subscriber here, I think you are adorable ❤ fan from UK 🇬🇧
Thank you so much!!! Made my day 😁
@@DavidvsFilm enjoying every episode xx
Hey... I appreciate a 45-yr-old woman entering guinea pig competitions. I could only hope to be so lucky as to marry a woman like that.
