When Rhod Gilbert was desperately trying to silently mouth a 10 words fact on Taskmaster, Little Alex Horne’s sly comment, “You’ve a very strong accent, is the problem” works in a similar way.
Maybe not WILTY. I think she’s the worst player I’ve ever seen unless she’s doing it on purpose. So bad David went down with her out of pity at the end there I think.
Yes! I love her to bits for her sweetness and humanity, but god she's not the most academically gifted is she! Which, in a weird way, makes her even more adorable to me for some reason! :)
@@nosoros David provably could care less about the specific language that has historically surrounded that colloquialism. If you look up David Mitchell's Soapbox you'll find a whole episode about it!
I must say, when the person in question said, "this is Graham," and gave their version of him, I pegged him. I'm good at this, as long as there's no pressure....
I believe in the joke he said "Mr Moat" which rhymes with the "Mr Mote". It's funny in the context because David was talking about castles and a moat is a deep trench filled with water built around a castle for defense.
The giveaway that the Pele story is true is that it's a New York Cosmos bag. I doubt the producers would bother obtaining merch from an American team just to concoct a lie.
I'm Canadian, sorry for the confusion, but why are you guys going to the post office to cash a cheque instead of like... A bank or other financial institution...?
The Post Office handled many government transactions. You went there for your pension or to renew your road tax. I was surprised when I moved to Canada that I had to go to different places to renew a health card, driving licence, registration plate sticker and similar rather than go to a multi-purpose office. Now the Ontario Kiosks do a few of those things.
@@stephentippet1606 I guess it would definitely be more convenient if you just go to one place for all of that stuff, but gosh, how busy would that place be?? Also... Road tax? Brb, got some googling to do. Is it like a toll or something? Why do you have to renew it? So confused, haha. ETA: okay, you guys have some weird naming conventions, here I was thinking the road tax was something you had to pay if you go on a certain road, apparently it's just a tax you pay if you own a car (reason for this tax still escapes me... Is it like... to battle congestion? There's like 3 people on your island how much congestion could there be?*) *That was a joke. Sorry!
I don't know about the UK but in Czechia you can get money against a postal... paper / people can send money through it. It's dated, but then this is a story from the past. (I have no idea what to call it in English. :D )
Are you talking about the Family Allowance that Sara Pascoe talked about picking up from the post office as a child? It was government benefits before the age of the internet. Maybe it was a check or some kind of special currency, like the food stamp booklets we used to have here in the US.
@@jacobl6714 Now I’m worried! 😂😂😂 I literally just got down on the floor…. I can do like…10-15 of the “girly” ones on my knees but shamefully…no I can’t even do one proper ones on my feet 🤦🏼♀️ I use to be able to do plenty of the proper ones but I must admit after a miserable few (…10) months, I stopped going to my fitness classes and of course, my fitness has gone to crap. I’ll use this as motivational material to get my shite together! P.S. being skinny does not equate to being fit 😕
Lee "I can't lip read in Welsh" was the best moment of this episode.
I thought (about fingers) "you only have 2" was the best part.

Thank you for that! I was focusing on the hand gestures and completely missed it.
I liked "I'd just passed the church"
"Ooh, that must have been a hell of a meal!"
Lee is so ridiculously quick witted.
@@TheYopogo can you explain the joke? I don't get it : (
Edit: ok I get it now.. so "passing" sth can mean pushing it out the lower end
It's always amazing how inhumanly fast Lee mack can make up a pun
The silent retreat story with Rob and Lee acting out the scenario was hysterical! Great episode!
I want to see more Nicola Coughlan in everything.
I'm so upset that she was in the New Year's special of Taskmaster so we won't get her in a full season someday! She's so awesome!
Maybe not WILTY. I think she’s the worst player I’ve ever seen unless she’s doing it on purpose. So bad David went down with her out of pity at the end there I think.
@@kuruman1 That's complete nonsense. She was right on the first one and fooled the entire panel during the mystery guest. How is she the worst player?
Judi Dench keeps stealing roles from her.
"Judi Dench" absolutely sent me. The look on Sara's face as she looked down to discover in horror that she has 10 fingers brought me back 16:00
Nicola was cooking that one and kept it ready to go lol
Man between the number of fingers and Costa Rica, I'm getting worried about Sara LOL
Yes! I love her to bits for her sweetness and humanity, but god she's not the most academically gifted is she!
Which, in a weird way, makes her even more adorable to me for some reason! :)
'Someone is banned form the avocado club now..." Lee got me on this one
Both Rob and Mr Motivator impressed me
24:40 egg club is the funniest thing I've seen in a while "unsanctioned rösti" 😂😂
+
This has been the best bit of advertising for the Egg Club that I'm fairly sure they don't want
The first rule of Egg Club is... you do not talk about Egg Club.
David Mitchell should have had the card: “I am currently on a small dose of a hallucinogenic substance”
why?
@@slyasleepbecause he was acting very silly in this episode.
@@willisverynice I don't think he is the kind of person who would do psychedelics on a panel show.
@@rayaqinwell then you would say “lie,” when he reads the card…
27:48 David is such a gentleman. Surely he gave away a free point so that they don't end up with a humiliating 5-0 score.
15:58 I just love Sara's reaction after he Lee corrects her! xD
Ohhhh I just realised David purposely picked true to Lee's obviously bogus story abt the silent retreat so Lee wldnt lose with zero points...
oh, is that one of the unwritten customs of the game? True sportsmanlike behaviour…🧐
Ahh, that might explain it. David must have known it was a great Mack humour piece.
David absolutely cares about the score
@@jeffschmid2538they couldn't* care less
@@nosoros David provably could care less about the specific language that has historically surrounded that colloquialism. If you look up David Mitchell's Soapbox you'll find a whole episode about it!
I love Nicola Coughlan
That bag worth more than a completely signed bag after this episode aired.
What a cast. ^^
I knew it was Egg Club because that's exactly how social media works
yup as a gen z'er i was like yeah that checks out
I'm still in love with Sara Pascoe 😍😍
Yes me too even after not knowing how many fingers a human has lol!
@@Walperion_Music Ha ha, true!
just wanna find someone who'd look at me like David looks at Lee
Thanks, great show.
David's last guess was a charity giveaway....
9:20 i've never thought "impotence contract" are two words that would ever possibly go together
money, the root of all evil ;)
Everything's for sale. Well, nearly everything.
Thanks for sharing and for the subs!
It's not fraud, it's theft!
More specifically, embezzlement. :))
The way David says "film" when referring to Cats sounds like he's having a PTSD flashback.
Nicola could be a regular on these shows when she slows down her larger roles, she’s so quick 😂
“Judy Dench?” 💀
9:47 RIP Pele
...respectfully... is this bag now for sale?
I CAN READ LIPS! That was hilarious! (:
Fun fact: at 20:35 on a shot of Graham, you can see the actual time on the top left corner.
Great episode!
I believe Lee's last lie was cribbed from a very old Rice Krispies commercial. They were monks, if I recall.
Dave missed a Snap Crackle and Pop joke about passing that church.
David and Lee must have some sort of side bet going over a shutout.
They should just bring in Bob as permanent guest.
Absolutely. Every episode is proved with the addition of Bob Mortimer.
18:00 The first rule of Egg club is... You know the rest. Lol
… no salmon
Lee should know that Peter Serafinowicz did the voice of Pele... It came up on this show many years ago :P
Like me, Lee was born with ADHD, and he is swiftly becoming what you profess to be in your username.
We have no hope for his memory
Theft and Cattery.
I thought that the First Rule of Egg Club is: “You do not talk about Egg Club!”?
I bet now Rob is happy he didn't get a part in Cats😂
He‘s in Barbie now instead!
4:54 Nicola is so effortlesly funny
I must say, when the person in question said, "this is Graham," and gave their version of him, I pegged him. I'm good at this, as long as there's no pressure....
Sara reminds me so much of Sheena Melwani
20.35 you can see maybe what time the camera had been filming?
Need some help here... What's the joke at 20:45? I don't understand the quip by Lee.
"Passing" an object through the digestive system. Lee was implying that David pooped out a church.
20:48 Lee must know Ron Obvious of Neaps End
Forever I will not know him is Dan Pele
Nicola Coughlan... you are so witty...
Dan, how could you ask Pele not to sign? That’s truly arrogant.
This is so funny.
Mr. Motivator? Model Village? Is this an IDLES album?
Loved this episode 🤣
it's not fraud, but it's not theft either, It's embezzlement
Graham gave the truth away with his reactions
One of their best episodes. Can someone explain Lee's Mr. Mote joke?
I believe in the joke he said "Mr Moat" which rhymes with the "Mr Mote". It's funny in the context because David was talking about castles and a moat is a deep trench filled with water built around a castle for defense.
@@venkatkiran7341 what was the joke about "That must be hell of a meal!"
@@aniruddhamukherjee6146 David had said he "passed a church" Lee interpreted it to mean he "pooped out a church"
I really want to join Egg Club.
Never mind the Flying Buttresses!
Sara is a beautiful woman.
The giveaway that the Pele story is true is that it's a New York Cosmos bag. I doubt the producers would bother obtaining merch from an American team just to concoct a lie.
I guessed Egg Club. Just saying 😊
i wish he had some balls that needed signing

*That was a joke. Sorry!
@@AgathaDrinksTea Road tax is equivalent to the Ontario license sticker renewal but you also have to have the car safety checked every year.
@@stephentippet1606 ah, I see!
You can divide the number of Mr Motivator's pushups by at least 2 the way he does them lol
👍👍👍
Taskmaster count 2
My wife once asked me if she should dye her hair white/grey. I thought about it and said no. Seeing Sara I think I made the wrong choice.
Genuine question: isn't the best response telling her that she is the only one who can make that choice, since it's *her* hair?
@@janeeyre1990 .. She asked me. I gave her my answer. She decided not to do it not me.
@@Ubique2927 I think you said the right thing Nick. If I asked my former husband what he thought, I wanted his genuine answer.
this is like the 10th one ive watched straight and lee's team has yet to win... i think Davids rigged this game lol
I think Lee's team won the previous two episodes
Ok, but what the heck is the mystery guest's name? Grayahm? Is that how ppl in the UK pronounce Graham?
Yes
I wasn't aware of another pronunciation. Where are you from and how do you pronounce it?
Banks are where people keep money not the Post Office.
I don't know about the UK but in Czechia you can get money against a postal... paper / people can send money through it. It's dated, but then this is a story from the past. (I have no idea what to call it in English. :D )
I'm from the NorthEast India and some people still do keep money in the post office where I'm from.
Are you talking about the Family Allowance that Sara Pascoe talked about picking up from the post office as a child?
It was government benefits before the age of the internet. Maybe it was a check or some kind of special currency, like the food stamp booklets we used to have here in the US.
@@janeeyre1990 Not sure, but I've been corrected on my blunder by several people.
In the U.K. the post office is also social security, welfare and a number of other things.
Lost me at the panto. Sucked. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
But why?
Can't stand Coughlan.
why :(
Why? What did she do
Worst episode ever.
The silent bit though was brilliant!
Had at least 3-5 good cackles throughout the ep!
[/whiny Simpsons comic book guy voice]
I liked it
That bag must be worth lots now
I can't believe this but... I really want to join Egg Club now.
Lol I don’t think I can even do one push up (or press up for non Aussie peeps) 😂
Oh my even one? That's just worrying. Like, medically lmao. I am 95% sure my grandma who is in her nineties, can do one if she needed to
@@jacobl6714 Now I’m worried!
😂😂😂 I literally just got down on the floor…. I can do like…10-15 of the “girly” ones on my knees but shamefully…no I can’t even do one proper ones on my feet 🤦🏼♀️
I use to be able to do plenty of the proper ones but I must admit after a miserable few (…10) months, I stopped going to my fitness classes and of course, my fitness has gone to crap.
I’ll use this as motivational material to get my shite together!
P.S. being skinny does not equate to being fit 😕
We say "push up" in the US too
