In this Broadcast Award-winning, BAFTA and Emmy Award-nominated entertainment show, Taskmaster tyrant Greg Davies (Man Down, Cuckoo), with the help of his loyal assistant Alex Horne (The Horne Section and the show’s creator), sets out to test the wiles, wit and wisdom of five hyper-competitive comedians.
Comedians that have risked life, limb, and dignity in the hope of making the Taskmaster proud so far include: Frank Skinner (The Frank Skinner Show), Mel Giedroyc (The Great British Bake Off), Romesh Ranganathan (Asian Provocateur), Hugh Dennis (Outnumbered), Sally Phillips (Bridget Jones’ Diary), Rose Matafeo (Edinburgh Comedy Award Winner 2018), and Russell Howard (The Russell Howard Hour). Unaware of what awaits them in each wax-sealed envelope, only one competitor can become the victorious owner of His Royal Task-ness’ golden head and be crowned the next Taskmaster Champion. - ตลก
Ed Gamble's description of Mike is my favourite: 'Like a man from the past, but the past of an entirely different planet'
"A man from an era that never existed" is probably my favourite
he could be a good Dr Who
@@satum__ ohmygod yes!!
He reminds me a lot of USSR actors from the 70s and 80s, he'd fit right in, i think:)
@@anyalazor7978 yes! the hairstyle, most definitely
As Ed Gamble said: "if I have children I'd like Mike to be the father."
Source? Only asking because im hoping you tell me the podcast is still going but i just can’t find it
@@shashipancholi It was on the podcast, and the podcast is still going, they've just removed it from TH-cam for no reason. It's still up on podcast players, though.
@@MisterAppleEsq Thank you sir
Same.
@@MisterAppleEsq The podcast is still on TH-cam. Just go to the Taskmaster channel. New episode every week as always.
It looks like he had a really lovely day, and no one can take that away from him.
Heck, even after the fart task.
@@marcgorter8651 He did seem to remain oddly upbeat despite the circumstances.
mike‘s polite awkwardness is my favorite thing this season
He's like if Howard Moon was cool.
If you haven't already listened to it, I thoroughly recommend his St Elwick's Neighbourhood Association Newsletter Podcast. It's hours of him being politely awkward, I adore it.
@@pkpckls Thanks for that suggestion. Listening now and it's great! That's most of my evening's entertainment sorted.
@@pkpckls I started this yesterday. It's incredible.
Charlotte also has a similar vibe. Possibly more akin to polite and nonchalant.
why isn't anyone talking about mike's incredibly detailed description of how one should ideally enjoy viewing Taskmaster, only for alex to say "I meant like... which channel is it on"
And then he says Dave. What a precious being
I was glad I’m watching it correctly 😄. (According to his first answer. Obviously on TH-cam, not on Channel 4.)
somebody else - What a stupid question. Who cares?
@@jonhohensee3258 Now that's a good question. I'm going to be thinking about that one for a while. Thanks for improving the quality of questions here on this comment page.
@@pfft5275 I know, right?
Somehow I think he would have been the perfect cast for professor Lupin in Harry Potter when I see him.
I would love a HP version with Mike playing ALL professors simultaneously :D Flitwick-Wozniak would be incredible, he'd be a convincing Trelawney, naughty version of Dumbledore :D imagine him as Snape - says something demeaning and apologizes instantly "it's not your fault"
Omg this is amazing! When I read PoA (before the film came out), I imagined a sort of handsome charming man and Mike would be perfect!
Thank you!! I've been thinking this since I saw the first episode of season 11 with Mike.
That and any and all Wes Anderson movies
He could do the werewolf transformation with minimal CGI, going off the last question
Much like Joe Thomas, at a certain point you just realize he isn't playing a character and it's just him
I agree 100%! So well said!
i think you've spotted a nuance there which is indeed shared by both (otherwise VERY different) personalities.
Except that Greg has said on the show that he is quietly fascinated by this character he’s playing who says things like ‘crikey’, never swears and apologises constantly, when in real life he knows him as a very different person indeed, to which Mike looked embarrassed and said, ‘I’m trying to be a good boy on TV’ or something similar.
I love when Alex smiles/ laughs at the contestants in a genuine way. There’s a paternal feeling to it.
Maybe it's just me and my own personal bias as he's become a new favourite, but I feel like Alex has had a markedly warmer soft spot for Mike out of any contestant I've seen thus far. He also seems to make Alex break character more often than others.
@@aylapetty2051 they go back a long way. Mike won the original live version of Taskmaster
@@lnfreeman oh cool, is there a recording of that ?
They know Mike is hot right now, thats why they put out his video 1st.
Hot as in hot! or hot as in HOT?
@@natasham4184 both
@@natasham4184 yes
I'm not complaining. 🤷
The man is quirkily hilarious.
"I'm wet of eye" is another quote for the book
"It's wet of eye time"
I was waiting for him to say "it's not your fault"
It's bamboo time
Tick tick, it’s wet-of-eye o’clock.
Honestly, I could just watch Mike and Lee do team-tasks together for hours.
they should seriously consider doing a double act
@@arb9010 Definitely some kind of show together, like when Bob Mortimer and Paul Whitehouse go fishing
The nursery rhymes was amazing.
"You can't take away that I had a lovely day out"
Your fun geography teacher and fun PE teacher going out on a day trip
I feel like there should be a whole series where Mike Wozniak and Bob Mortimer do team tasks.
Plus Noel and Johnny Vegas. Maybe add Josh and James. Now that’s a cast!
Lou Saunders, Noel Fielding
i love those weirdos
We need a gofundme for this
@@deliquescencemusic I think 5x James would be optimal Acaster
The wheel wasn't even Alex's idea, this is just how Mike Wozniak answers all his questions.
idk why but the fact he doesn't move his legs horizontally at all when he does jumping jacks really amuses me
Hahahaha I never even noticed and now I can’t stop laughing ahahahaha how adorable 🥺
I just went back and rewatched it hahah omg he’s so cute ☺️
Yep haha just jumping up and down while flailing his arms
This man just exudes sexiness without even trying.
I didn't really know who Mike was before this series, but he consistently makes me laugh the most. Something about an awkwardly polite, moustache-wielding gent in a suit is apparently bones funny to me, and I'm very grateful to him for teaching me that.
You HAVE to watch Man Down. X
@@nuttyfroot I think I saw the first episode once ages ago, but all I really remember is Rik Mayall dressed as a bear and jumping Greg, which tbf was very memorable and entertaining! I'll move up my "to watch" list if it has more Mike gold in it, ta!
@@imogens7281 I'm exactly the same - I think I saw the first episode. Gotta be on the list for a watch soon, that one. My friends with similar taste to me certainly recommend it.
His St Elwicks newsletter podcast is brilliant, his voice and mannerisms are perfectly suited to Parish Council announcements
Also, the beef and diary network podcast, on which he is a regular contributor.
I mean, gosh, I think... I think I'm in love with this man. Is it wrong that I want to lovingly watch him drink liters of milk while he says « OK, thank you » to me?
no, we all want that. i never thought id completely abandon my heterosexuality but this man made me.
@@brokkoli3245 He made us. And this is beautiful.
I'm happy y'all were fluid enough to accept this love. He's really making the world better.
And as he snuggles into our soft loving bosom?
I'm lactose intolerant but I'd drink milk for this man
Honestly, Mike is propably my fav Contestant of all time. There is just sthg about him!
Johnny Vegas, Noel Fielding and James Acaster are my favourites but I've known about them for a while but damn Mike went from unknown to one of my favourites as fast as the first 20 minutes of the 1st episode.
@@goestdummy I'm Austrian and don't usually watch british stuff, so I never know who the Contestants are 🤣 But Yeah, I love Noel too! I think I might just have a Thing for the chaotic Contestants^^
wtf is sthg
@@sharkofjoy something?
It’s the irresistible charm of the moustache.
I thought I was going to watch the season for Lee but Mike has absolutely stolen my heart.
He only forgot to say garage 1 times. That's really impressive.
Twice actually, but yeah, really impressive.
He garage only garage forgot garage to garage say garage garage garage 1 garage times garage. That's garage really garage impressive garage.
Disqualified. no points.
@@nst1981 "possibly garage *the biggest* garage" and "found garage out garage as garage *a mere* garage wastrel garage" :)
@@shaggy0917 Welll, articles are barely proper words anyway.
Mike Wozniak 🤝 Joe Thomas
Being two of the most awkward, strange, and endearing contestants
I really want to watch them have an interaction, do a task together, anything 😂
@@vidyaratan8522 Joe and Mike: your task is to have a conversation without apologising for anything
Add Mark Watson into the mix and oh boy.
@@sparo_splat omg yes
@@vidyaratan8522 that might break both of them haha (but I agree!)
I was only vaguely aware of Mike before Taskmaster, but he has quickly become one of my favourite people. He just comes across as such a genuinely nice human being
Yes every little conversation, he says excuse me and thank you; and when he failed miserably he would say things like: what you can’t take away from me is that I had a lovely day!
"I'm wet of eye."
Well, I'm pretty sure I somehow ovulated from this.
Me too. And I'm a man. Wozniak has this kind of power over us all.
It made me want to go all Tim Key: “....you’re half right.”
I think Mike may be the best and most simultaneously strange and excessively "normal" guest on any season, and any version, from any country that Taskmaster has ever had. He should be staring in gritty crime comedies. I can't tell if he is the perfect person to turn to if you need someone to help you with something, or a serial killer, or both. Fascinating and hilarious.
I sometimes wonder if you are drugging him with something before each task.
I predict him getting tons of work after this.
Please make a Taskmaster special where Mike plays all the 5 contestants by himself.
Why does Mike look like he could be 40 or 20 at the same time
It's the mustache, combined with his hair showing no grey.
I hereby declare that I am in love with Mike Wozniak.
Glad they have the contestants look right down the lens. I've been confused about Mike Wozniak's eye color for weeks, but now I finally know.
I love Lee Mack, but this dude (that I didn't know) is surely the highlight of this season.
Same. Came in as a Lee fan, but Mike quickly shot up as one of my favorite contestants.
I'm really enjoying Sarah Kendall too. Her serious intensity juxtaposed with the ridiculousness of the subject matter makes me laugh.
You should watch Man Down, it's got Mike AND Greg Davis in
I came to watch Lee Mack and I'm staying for Mike Wozniak. (I still like Lee)
@@janeeyre1990 I really want to like Sarah but she is mind numblingly boring to me !!
@@ko-iz3yp I thought so too, but then she really grew on me! Hope so for you too now that we're a few more eps in :)
Yo he’s actually pretty handsome, look at those eyes, never noticed 👁👄👁
Saw his pixs online without moustache... wow...
Though still equally rather fancy him with that bushy moustache too.
This is like the weirdest Parent's Evening of all time.
howlingg oml
This was top level garage speak
You mean :
This garage was garage top garage level garage speak garage.
(it's debatable whether an additional garage is required next to garage).
The man with the luscious mustache has weaseled himself right into my heart!
Mike has a very satisfying face to look at
Mike garage is garage a garage legend
You forgot one garage
....garage.
Not nearly enough is said about the fact that Mike Wozniak was a doctor before he pursued a comedy career. There has to be a show in that somewhere.
Ken Jeong pretty much cornered that market
Also, I think he switch right after finishing his training, never really practiced, so not sure how many stories there are he could still portray.
@@laurenmarsh7528 Harry Hill?
@@lnfreeman a comedian has to go back to doctoring because his career implodes following a nervous breakdown
@@sir_vix might just be absurd enough to work! Someone call the BBC
Jamali: "Alex could you spin the wheel for me? Come on hurry up".
I'm glad I'm not the only one who has noticed. He is rapidly becoming the second ever contestant I've disliked.
@@alexsmalley9993 who was the other?
@@alexsmalley9993 I feel the opposite, Jamali’s banter with Alex is hilarious
@@sophiew757 Iain Stirling. So rude during the team tasks. In fairness to Iain he did notice when they played it back and apologised but because they were filmed earlier he was like that for every team task. It made me dislike watching him.
@@DeepFriedCertified yeah no worries. I’m sure it works for other people. I think it just crosses the border to a bit mean for me.
Looked like Alex had to break eye contact at 0:08, and still couldn't help smiling! I can totally understand, I feel impaled with charm every time Wozniak looks into the camera.
Another first impression here:
This man is a force of nature. He drew out each tedious part of that task as long as he could. For comedy, or TV, or just fun.
Most folks would try to be clever in the easiest way possible n get each sentence done in a few monotone words.
Instant fan.
we appreciate Little Alex Horne for giving the people what they want - more Mike Wozniak!
heard Alex say that contestants would not be repeated...
What is the most lovely thing in your opinion?
_throwing a bag of sugar with Lee Mack_
The TV explanation is also a brilliant John Cleese impersonation. I'm actually more amazed by that.
Sounded more like toast of London
I love that he's so polite he wanted to make sure people only got stains or crumbs on old clothes when watching Taskmaster
I've realised that Mike Wozniak is Brian David Gilbert in 20 years. Also I will be so sad when this series ends and we won't see him anymore.
I love how Mike Wozniak explaining TV involves signal bouncing off bald heads
i do find him incredibly endearing, i do hope he wins. and is on TV more
Did anybody notice that he's just jumping in place and moving his arms? Not a traditional jumping jack, but very Wozniak.
I wish we had seen him "completely zone out during your answer" or "be scared of the cameraman"
I'm irrationally attracted to this man
it's jafar's fault
@@chelseawildflowerloftinwey1945 personally, I blame San Andrea.
The sentence Mike said about fear with out the garages:
- I'm afraid of all sorts of things, I suppose, the worst one, probably too grim to discuss but possibly the biggest one full this is the fear of being found out as a mere waist drill and chainsaw
"wastrel and chancer"
What a lovely lovely man.
Perfect timing. Needed a Wozniak fix.
It's Tash Time, tick tock
“i’m wet of eye”
“it suits you”
Mike is something I never knew I needed until this series. I didn't even know who he was.
Love the show Mike is unstoppable
Many garages are flooded from this
Jesus Christ, Mike. Are you alright? XD Also, sheer madness hidden under a veneer of politeness is something I aim for in daily life. Thank you.
"I am afraid of all sorts of things, I suppose. The worst ones are probably too grim to discuss, but possibly the biggest one for this is the fear of being found out as a mere waistril (?) and chancer."
I can't seem to understand the waistril part, could someone kindly help me?
Wastrel: a wasteful or good-for-nothing person :-)
Thank you! I was looking for this
@@jaspreetshaheed Thank you!
I wonder if all this public love is enhancing or helping his imposter syndrome.
I want Mike Wozniak to be the next James Bond.
Huge fan of Taskmaster and Mike is my fave contestant by far.
Love it when Alex says 'don't look at that please' and then has to stop himself laughing and stay serious
If they were ever to remake Fawlty Towers, look no further than this fantastic guy to play Manuel.
Now this is the quality content I need in my life
Love how he looks like a straight-lace tv newscaster but is funny and willing to do whatever the wheel said 😂😂😂😂
And he did it so well too 👏👏
That moment where you realize that this is actually just brilliant improv 👏👏
Mike is my favourite this season , I hope we will see him more often from now on ...in every tv shows made in the UK !
I find it hilarious that Mike is literally the same person as his character, Brian in Man Down. Fabulous 😍
he isn't though
roisin and greg aswell, it's actually a documentary if you think about it
Mike is such a switched on bloke it’s mad
To be honest, I've never heard of Mike Wozniak, but he is by far my favourite taskmaster contestant so far!!! Love your work.
Watch him on Man Down
@@josefv1154 I'll check it out, thanks!
Check out his podcast appearances. He's on Beef and Dairy network a good amount. He has his own podcast called St. Elwick's Neighborhood Association Newsletter Podcast and its easily the funniest podcast I've ever come across.
@@JohnyG29 You're thinking of Mike Apple
@@Lastielion no that's Mike Hawk
How did TM make me love The Woz so much more? Didn't think it was possible.
What a guy, makes season 11
Second favourite Mike Wozniak video after his RHLSTP interview. That man wears charisma like he wears his moustache.
I don't think I even watched that RHLSTP! Sometimes I skip an ep if I don't recognise the name of the guest. More fool me!
Mike's great on the Beef and Dairy Network Podcast.
He hasn't brought in a full beef dinner for any of his prize tasks (yet).
I am disappointed.
Tuned in for Lee Mack, kept watching for this gentleman 🙂
I mean completely
I love Mike, he's been great so far! He's my favourite this season :)
The looks--Mike's knowing glances and Alex's awestruck grins--that they give each other could launch libraries of fan fiction.
I love Mike.
Mike is just one of my favorite people or of all time. I’d drink a whole gallon of milk with him and talk shop.
Mike's an absolute legend. :)
He lied. We all know the most beautiful thing is a tall glass of milk
the most beautiful thing is himself
Neat.
Alex's admiring look at 5:00 is so wholesome. Or is that some sort of sadistic schadenfreude? Either way, fantastic!
We love Mike!!!
Id have never thought Mike would be a great contestant but hes been quality so far. Can see why gregg likes him for Man Down
Quite genuinely could have happily watched 8 hours of this.
I think Mike has got to be my favourite ever contestant
And here I thought Lee was going to be my favorite contestant. I love this man.
Audio for the interview is quite low, especially compared to the outro.
i would die for him
Mike may be my favourite contestant of all time.
this man is delightful
I Garage Freaking Garage Love Garage MIke Garage Wozniac Garage!
Period Garage
Glad the 'how' missunderstanding happened, endearing moment.
Yeah, the Dave era of Taskmaster was so warm and fuzzy ;)
Love that they didn't cut or redo him saying the wrong channel.
Mike's just amazing. Definitely my favourite in season 11.
How does Alex keep a straight face. Brilliant.
He ALMOST cracks right at the beginning after he says, "Don't look at that please."
Yes yes yes!
I’ve been waiting for this series contestants interviews!!
The audio levels are a bit all over the place but the clip is gold
I want to discuss the grim stuff with
Mike, and then give him the biggest hug. ❤️
Love these interviews!
I wanted to give him a hug at the end
