    At some point around Series 14, I was worried that we may not reach up to Series 25, and a Champion of Champion of Champions.
    Now that Alex has downed an elixer of eternal life, that's likely to happen thankfully.

      Honestly, it's probably easier to not bother to count the dots on the fish itself, but rather... to watch the footage of him making the dots, and just counting how many times he presses the pen to the fish. Especially if you can slow down the footage, I feel that would be the easier way to do it.

      From what I heard back around series 15 or 16, I think it's been greenlit to at least season 21, so it's pretty likely, I'd say, unless the ratings really drop off (which is doubtful as they keep it fresh each season)

    Well, we've learned that tasks in Taskmaster probably have a bit more to them than getting pissed on wine and picking wires at random. We've learned not to trust otters in Brixton around your children. And we've learned that our old mate Quentin from Series 13 has so little going on that he willingly stands around explaining to comedians that he doesn't chase people for a living.
    We've s also crucially learned that the first two-time winner in this series, is ANDYYYYYY ZALTZMAAAAN!

      Because it was simply not entertaining enough.
      It happens every now and then, at any point in an episode, where it’s apparent that a sequence from the studio show just didn’t make it into the TV cut.
      Surely you have noticed that not every judgement or contestant banter is the same length. Sometimes there’s even a thing a contestant did in a clip, that would make an obviously great talking point but then it’s surprisingly absent from the judgment part. Probably because it just never managed to gain traction and produce a fun enough exchange between participants, Greg and Alex.
      The studio recording allows to retake whole sequences and the broadcast cut is a mashup of those, as is visible by some not too well hidden continuity errors, e.g. people shifting sitting positions in what appears like one continuous exchange.
      Nothing nefarious going on here, just typical curated content.
      The banter happening between contestants, Greg and Alex isn’t always good enough, so it get’s cut out.

    Most people are probably - to some degree - ableist and I think this show proves 100% that it doesn't have to be this way if inclusion is done right. When you watch the first episode, all most people are probably going to notice or think about is her way of speaking and moving but only a few episodes later you realize that Rosie's disability is the least interesting thing about her.
