Greg's reaction to Josh Widdicombe getting GREG tattooed on his foot is amazing. It's on another level and my conclusion is that Greg must be very well liked by Josh (and everyone)

Right? It was brought back for I think 3 seasons- long enough for it to seem like to was going to be a regular thing- and then they dropped it. I loved how creative everyone got with it trying to one up each other!
honestly now all i want is a compilation of the "tired older middle aged contestants" just trying to make it through each task lol think jo brand or alan davies
That was a joke. Ben was filming on the Southbank and Al made a quip about his dad being foreign secretary or something. He got Ben to shout out answers across the river
4:15 it just occurred to me how much of a serious commitment this was (aside from the obvious of a tattoo) This was the first series in a completely new tv show that could have just died here. Then Josh would be stuck with a tattoo from a defunct tv show rather than it being a legendary move.
Almost everyone that has appeared on Taskmaster are friends though, the UK has quite a tight-knit comedy community where everyone passes in and out of everyone else's circles by guesting in their sitcoms or being invited on to their panel shows so Josh knew that even if Taskmaster's first series never saw the light of day he would still have a daft and funny tattoo that he could tease Greg with for years to come.

Doubt this’ll be read or heard with any significance at all but just wanted to share to the whole taskmaster team and all comedians who’ve participated, a heartfelt and sincere thank you, for this amazing program that was and still is such an incredible program that has been an amazing light through the tough few years I’ve been through. So thankful I stumbled upon this through times where it was such a helpful distraction and still has such a profound impact on me personally to brighten my day whenever I’ve enjoyed it.

14:50 @JimmyCarr his fkn laugh broke me! Good to see that the British game show hosts all getting around each other and rinsing each other in front of an audience 🤣
I love these "Buy Greg a present" tasks, always funny and sometimes utterly incredible, like the tattoo or his Lordship! 😛 I hope that they bring them back, we haven't had any for a while now 😞
It's quite heartening that in the showbiz world where presumably all these contestants are earning extremely well from their careers, a fistful of 20s barely enough to buy a crap secondhand car still gets then excited.
Surely everybody knows that the whole lordship thing was always just a bit of fun, like buying a square foot of the moon or having a star named after you, and it doesn't actually entitle you to style yourself a lord or a lady. I wish people would stop banging on about it. IT'S A GAG. Hell, I've got one, given to me as a jokey gift, and I don't go around demanding that people refer to me as "Your Grace" (although a little deference would be nice). It's still one of the funniest bits ever on Taskmaster: it's a perfect comedy moment - Katherine's delivery, Greg's astonishment and then his leaning all the way into it by insisting on being called "Your Lordship". (And Katherine's calling him "Your Majesty", because she doesn't know different, she's not even British.)
it's still advertised as something that it's not, you don't get any land, and you don't get any lordship title or anything, you literally pay £20 or whatever to get a piece of paper. None of the money even goes to charity
Sadly not. It would be except their advertising (both their own spots and spots done by other people) really try to push the idea that its an actual official loophole. Lots of people do think its actually true. If it was just a gag gift - and its certainly true that just about nobody actually takes being a "lord" or "lady" seriously - it would be fine, but they are intentionally misleading about it.
@@Charlie59876 Wrong. You do sponsor a piece of land that you can visit, you also get a title that may not be recognisable by any government or institution but which can only be used with the permission of the clan that gave you it. As a Fraser I could style myself as Lord Robert Fraser of Lovat but since I have never been recognised by my ancestral clan (the Frasers of Lovat) they would have the right to demand that I stop using that title. What Highland Titles have done is made an agreement with the MacDonald's of Glencoe to raise money for their land in return for allowing sponsors of their land to legally use the 'Lord (or Lady) of Glencoe' title. It's a legitimate thing. I have no idea where the "It's all a scam" nonsense came from. An American who has ancestry in both Scotland and England fell in love with Scotland and upon hearing that reforestation efforts here are hampered by the fact that most clan leaders do not have the funds to properly upkeep their lands he came up with a business proposal - he partnered with the MacDonald's of Glencoe to sell (really sponsor) tiny bits of land in exchange for the buyer to style them self as a Lord of Glencoe. 85% of the sale goes to reforesting clan territory and 15% goes to the American. Yes - it's a business, but name me one business where the owner/CEO doesn't make a profit. Highland Titles have won awards for the contribution they have made to reforesting my country and I thank them for it, they have also reintroduced a few species from mainland Europe that had been hunted to extinction in Scotland.
@@krashd people here are referencing the recent furor over a company called Established Titles. Popular TH-cam creators have pushed them as paid sponsorship and the language this specific company is using is getting every hot and bothered.

So you got the lord thing 😂 Well that one you can make it at home better than the original. Lately it was going around that controversy about "titles"... Eh. The fun part with the Katherine made it all worth it!
I don't know if anyone in Taskmaster (including the contestants) will see this, but I think Joe should've got 1st for the prize task. The wording of the prize task said "the most cash", not "the most valued cash". This can be interpreted as being of a higher number of something - like 100 fish is higher than 2 T-Rexes. If that is so, 250 pounds in pennies would somewhere be around 42000 - 45250 pennies and would be definitely higher than the number of bills in the envelope + the 1 check.
@@dubious6718 No, it would not be in the sense of value because it is valued around 72 pounds in the UK. Joe brought in 250 pounds worth of pennies. Also, if we were to go with number of bills against number of pennies, 10 bills are still a lot less than the number of pennies Joe brought.

Haven't seen the episode, but I assume the person who won the put the money in the bowl inside the fishbowl challenge just whipped out their wallet and put some paper money in the bowl?
Imagine in the most cash task someone came in like "So I took a 10 grand loan from a bank, yeah? And my reasoning is quite simple, really. If I win, I can just pay it back and have the rest of the won money for me. But if I lose, then someone else has to pay off the loan for me, so I get the 10 grand. So really I always win!" "Wait a second, did you bring in the 10 grand?" "What? No, I brought in the loan!"

An American who has ancestry in both Scotland and England fell in love with Scotland and upon hearing that reforestation efforts here are hampered by the fact that most clan leaders do not have the funds to properly upkeep their lands he came up with a business proposal - he partnered with the MacDonald's of Glencoe to sell (really sponsor) tiny bits of land in exchange for the buyer to style them self as a Lord of Glencoe. 85% of the sale goes to reforesting clan territory and 15% goes to the American. Yes - it's a business, but name me one business where the owner/CEO doesn't make a profit.
Highland Titles have won awards for the contribution they have made to reforesting my country and I thank them for it, they have also reintroduced a few species from mainland Europe that had been hunted to extinction in Scotland.
I didn’t realize he was a “lord” through the established titles thing lol

Dwain it out. Downloading
I'd really love a print of Noel's note. It's fabulous!
Haven't seen the episode, but I assume the person who won the put the money in the bowl inside the fishbowl challenge just whipped out their wallet and put some paper money in the bowl?
Yep, the Scottish lord scam has been around a long time.
If he would have bought a little Hot Wheels Jeep and gave him the 20, he would have won.

Wow, Hugh Dennis... no bad dong there.
Imagine in the most cash task someone came in like
"So I took a 10 grand loan from a bank, yeah? And my reasoning is quite simple, really. If I win, I can just pay it back and have the rest of the won money for me. But if I lose, then someone else has to pay off the loan for me, so I get the 10 grand. So really I always win!"
"Wait a second, did you bring in the 10 grand?"
"What? No, I brought in the loan!"
Hooray for the dolphin children!
would anyone else absolutely shatter the big bowl and just put a crap load of money in the small bowl when that's all said and done?
Where did Noel get that "The Anglers Club of Portland" patch???
I liked when Frank Skinner offered to buy first place.
Dump a tonne of salt in the water for the first task
Good luck Dolphins 😂
15:18 yeah btw that is actually a TOTAL SCAM
