@@MinekEzQM Ed Gamble did mention on the podcast that he'd also been searching for ducks for CoC II. But Alex says "it was years ago" so my low stake conspiracy is that it's been done more than twice
Shoutout to the editors, they're really the glue that holds everything together. Even with all these fantastic comedians it can't be easy to turn 100 minutes of duck searching into a funny and snappy 13 minute video. And to do it consistently across the series no less.
@@kittysplodeyou possibly might be a broken human being - not only didn’t you find any of this funny, but for some reason you’re watching these videos which are all funny in similar ways yet you don’t find them funny…
This might just be my favourite task of all 14 series so far. It's so simple and yet it has everything that makes TM great - creativity, rage, enthusiasm, surprise, madness, naked Alex, and Chris Ramsey saying "ducks".
So if I'm counting right all 10 (+1) ducks were found by different contestants: 1. sticker on the confusing little box (+ red herring inside) 2. UV ink on the task 3. inside the breaker box 4. lighting strip on a wall 5. sticker under the shoe 6. inside alex's mug 7. in the table leg 8. in the hen 9. sticker under the flooring 10. "canard" painted on a ceiling beam 10 + 1. UV paint on a wall
One of the all time best Taskmaster tasks. My favorite thing is that there seems to be a direct correlation between how well they did and how much they hated the task.
Just realised that Phil Wang's "confusing little box" actually has 3 "ducks"... the word duck, the picture of a duck and the phrase "no duck" contains a duck.
The two phrases are just one, the phrase "ducks" is just "no ducks" with tape over "no". You can see that reasonably clearly at 2:15. And it's obviously telling you this is *not* one of the ducks.
Loved this task. And the stray duck. Was not sure if all 10 ducks were found so I made a list: Stickers 1 - 1:36 on the puzzle box (+red herring) 2 - (4:14) 10:00 underside shoe 3 - 11:30 underneath flooring Rubber ducks 4 - 4:11 inside table leg 5 - 10:10 in tea cup 6 - 6:43 in electrical box Others 7 - 5:55 led wall light (to be switched on) 8 - 7:16 canard on ceiling (writing) 9 - 8:01 on Task with UV (UV light beside floor pannel) 10 - 4:45 inside chicken (speaker) +1 STRAYDUCK - 11:19 UV on wall
Chris Ramsey was one of the most consistently and sincerely joyous contestants there've been on Taskmaster. He's just genuinely amused by most everything & in any given moment that he's not, he eventually comes round to it LOL!
Chris Ramsey seems to be having the most fun in these. the shows where they review the tasks and get graded he is having just the best time. Sarah Millican is like that in series 14.
Def one of my favorite groups AND tasks ❤ 🦆So many individual moments just sort of encapsulate TM all on their own 😂 Such as: Judi: *casually takes out duck from Alex's teacup* "Honestly, where are you from?" Alex: "West Sussex" Judi: "No"
"Where are you from" is the second best compliment Alex ever received in my opinion. Right timing, perfect tone an mimics. My favorite is still Katherine Ryan saying "Oh I understand perfectly well. You're a madman" s2 ep3 "See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" task.
"people must have ridden you" I saw an interview with Greg where someone had written on a forum that they'd ride him "like a rabid dog through hell" or something similar
I sincerely mean this… you’ve helped me through the darkest time of my life… the loss of my 4 children in a car accident. This show is my absolute go to for happiness! Please don’t ever stop. Thank you to Alex for creating this masterpiece.
That is an utterly horrifying situation to have to go through, truly, truly abhorrent. I just can't imagine it. I hope you manage to hold onto whatever purposes you find, please keep in contact with those around you and don't shut yourself away even if it you feel guilty doing so, you are allowed happiness and you are allowed for things to get better. You have my sincerest condolences.
This is one of the task me and my boyfriend laughed pretty much all the way through. It's very chaotic. My favorite part is the stray duck and Greg saying "a bonus duck!"
While i love contestants finding loopholes or doing tasks exceptionally well so they only need a fraction of the time to complete, Chris' contribution is amazing. He's so joyful and energetic.
In fact it just occurred to me that in COC 2 it's highly likely that the task that replaced this one was Get the Duck In The Pond. Man Eds's disaster could have been saved if someone did really shit in this one on COC...
@@iliketrains3495 imagine if the original duck task was from a regular season then this duck task was from coc, and the contestant that did the original task remembered about the duck

Please do a Taskmaster fan favorite/redemption series where contestants that did not win but were well liked are voted upon by fans and can compete again. Maximum one person from a series. For example, the lineup is: James Acaster Mel Giedroyc Nish Kumar Mike Wozniak Asim Chaudhry Please consider this!
I'd have made a duckface and quacked, and waggled around, and made Alex do the same. 2 bonus ducks. If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and sounds like a duck, it is a duck; duck-typing 101
The task reads: "Find all 10 ducks. You must stay in the lab. Fastest Wins. You have a maximum of 20 minutes. Your time started when you entered the lab." But, don't they need to leave the lab in order to get the hens??
From what I can gather, the lab is the small curtained room, and the room beyond the curtain but not beyond the door out of the room, I think the lab is split into two sections (sort of how some places have a separate hall for disinfecting before entering)
00:08 - 00:18 Correct. And this is Taskmaster. And you are not suspicious already? :D Btw one of my favorite tasks. They found 11 :D And destroyed the lab. And the studio commentary also hilarious.
This was fun to watch and I think it would be fun to participate in too. I wonder how I would've done. I was bothered by the first guy just standing around pondering instead of searching lol so painful.

The literal red herring was fantastic, 10/10
The little 'yay' from the studio audience at 1:31 is everything to me
For some reason the bit that was funniest to me was
Judi: Honestly where are you from?
Alex: West Sussex
Judi: No.
This might just be my favourite task of all 14 series so far. It's so simple and yet it has everything that makes TM great - creativity, rage, enthusiasm, surprise, madness, naked Alex, and Chris Ramsey saying "ducks".
Right?! I was so invested 😂

7. in the table leg
8. in the hen
9. sticker under the flooring
10. "canard" painted on a ceiling beam
10 + 1. UV paint on a wall
I would also argue that ripping off "no" from "no duck" label would be counted
@@kezzyhkoI think Greg might have allowed it, if anyone had tried. But it definitely wasn’t one of the official ducks.
@kezzyhko the "duck" label above it also didn't count
The word duck was printed in the task instructions.
One of the all time best Taskmaster tasks.
My favorite thing is that there seems to be a direct correlation between how well they did and how much they hated the task.
Judi's face in the dark has great potential for use in memes.
Already existing

Nah, they haggled

Confusing thought, isn't it?
@@bootieos7701 I mean, you can't open them, but you can, but you can't

I would love for Alex to design an escape room. There could be a TV with him on it, "All the information is on the task!"

"You're steering me with your thighs" is so poetic...
Especially when they're wrapped around your head.
What it would be to be Alex at that time.
The Red "Herring" in the box. Genius.
this was an absolute banger as a first task of the series
“Is there a duck on my face?” So unhinged
Thank you for putting all these vids up! I'm from Denmark so i don't really have any other avenue to watch this. Absolutely freaking hilarious show!

"You talked about veins for quite a while" 😂😂😂

This is honestly my favorite task and I hope one day they release the champion of champions version
They have

Apparently this task was originally filmed for Champion of Champions 2 but got cut because everyone was too good at it, so maybe that

Chris I meant, but if you listen to his podcast episode, there's a lot of crazy going on under the surface to be fair!
This show is a joy
The Red (Richard) Herring really got me.
There was something unsettling in seeing the chicken blink during Ardal's turn
I didn’t notice it in the episode, but it’s funny to me now.
Sophie steering Alex with her thighs - brilliant.
I've seen this before but that still of Judi still cracks me up
Please do a Taskmaster fan favorite/redemption series where contestants that did not win but were well liked are voted upon by fans and can compete again. Maximum one person from a series.
For example, the lineup is:
James Acaster
Mel Giedroyc
Nish Kumar
Mike Wozniak
Asim Chaudhry
Please consider this!
Let's see how many more tasks can drive Nish so crazy that he involuntarily shouts, "I hate this show!!!"
New series tomorrow woooooo
That looks like Phil Wang's box that Greg broke.
Brilliant task. So simple, yet have it all.
the stray duck and the "oh...oh" as she stomped on the chicken was hilarious
I see that Phil Wang's infamous box made a return.
So you need to know English, Spanish, French, and Swedish to be able to excel at Task Master
This is a hilarious and awesome task! I’d love to see the version from the Champions of Champions episode!
This is one of my favorite tasks ever on this show.
I can't believe they didn't give extra points for finding the red Herring
some of those shots, looked straight out of a wes anderson film
This was glorious. I have experienced great joy.
How the hell do you not just tearing everything apart? It's not like this is the first ever episode of the show.
*What color is he?*
I laughed at that more than I'm proud to admit.
This is my favorite lineup hands down
I love how Ardal is so like Dougal. Like I thought Dougal's whole personality was an act, but obviously not!
Asking "is this your tea" as you reach into it is hilarious
Are those boxes the same type Phil wang got Greg?
That looked incredibly fun!
I think this is the best task in the history of the entire show.
Chris' existential horror at discovering a duck on his shoe is iconic
Very funny task, and loved the callbacks to other series.
I can't believe nobody argued about the duck/not duck stickers on the red herring box also counting!
I would love to see where all 10 ducks were! The way it’s edited, it’s hard to tell.
"Are there ducks on the bottom of my AAHHHHHHH!!!!!! Two ducks!"
That task was fu-can'ard.
I rewatched this just for the red Herring bit
Did that chicken wink at anyone else or was it just me? 3:40
Just you :)
Easily one of my favorites ever. LMFAO
If writing counts then the word "ducks" on the task itself should also count.
The hen winking on Ardels had me so spun out 😂
I really liked ducks when I was a kid. Had a mug that had a duck in the bottom of it that was attached.
I'd have made a duckface and quacked, and waggled around, and made Alex do the same. 2 bonus ducks.
If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and sounds like a duck, it is a duck; duck-typing 101
Genuinely expected a duck shaved into Alex's chest hair or a temp tattoo.
Judy has the best laugh.
I literally just realised why that bloody thing was red. Thanks.

"am I hot?"
"Oooh yess" 😂
WHen he finds the duck under his shoe and screams I lost it.
Judi is becoming my absolute favourite contestant🤣🤣
So if they gave judi a point for a duck that they didnt put there for this task, could the contestants have just drawn 10 ducks?
Sounds like a good loophole, but the contestants couldn’t leave a lab so unless they happened to carry a pen, probably wouldn’t work

Genuine question is the lady in the hat related to Sarah Pascoe? They sound alike I had to look twice to make sure it wasn’t her
Wow, what a beast I bet the challenge was with real ducks, but she ate all of them.
