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. - Комедії
Greg's expression on discovering the key to beatboxing is second only to his joy at seeing Bob Mortimer tear an apple in half on "Would I Lie To You?"
What about the shared love of lamination machines by him and a contestant?
Rhod’s genuine disappointment when Greg wouldn’t take James’ second hula attempt, such a good sport.
“Do you remember when I backed you on that?”
“Yeah, well now you can back into a satsuma and shove it up your arse.”
even if Greg doesn't take the second attempt. James won anyway, still had best improvement
I guess the 1st attempt was for the competition. 2nd attempt was for the ladies. Maybe its his new nightclub move?
They should have given Saka a second shot as well, I’m sure he would have scored…
@@kickedinthecalfbyacow7549 phil made many other attempts afterwards it just wasn't in the shot so technically they both had a second attempt and neither counted
Taskmasterr is the most important sports documentary series of our generation.
Agreed!
The extra R you’ve put on Taskmaster has made me realise Matt Berry would be a great contestant.
@@kisbie you are indeed correct and now on the board for the next series. ;) call in to HQ and they will get you sorted out. Be sure to ask them for the "Special Uniform". ;)
I think we should hold it each week and get everyone involved 👍 I'd rather do that than the park run lol
@@kisbie Oh my God yes!!!
Rob jumping over the rail is one of the underrated Taskmaster moments
Whacked his wang with that jump, eh?
Nothing makes you feel better about your lack of athletic prowess than watching comedians do anything physical. Absolute legends.
100%
When the old Wembly Stadium was demolished, the rubble was taken to some undeveloped land just to the side of the A40 in West London. They piled up the rubble in 4 heaps, later they covered the 4 heaps with soil and grass seeds, then landscaped them. The hill that they had to put the 3 yoga balls on top of, is one of those heaps.
Quite interesting
@@JIMP1000 no, it's Taskmaster
Greg's genuine look of wonder when he realised he was beatboxing.
Um...sorry but where is Joe Wilkinson's legendary potato throw??
Disqualified
@@Myzelfa it's a personal achievement for him though :P we all know he was robbed
"I just don't care where the ball goes"
Without those extra centimeters, it would've been all rim and bounce back
Maybe another special type of compilation is awaiting us 'magical moments on taskmaster'
I've liked Rob before, but watching him roll across the field is when I knew Series 3 was going to be spectacular.
Am I the only one that had no trouble believing that Hugh Dennis would have brought his own crowd in for his goal?
greg told hugh they put crowd there for his confidence
When Beckett did a flip over the fence haha. I love when Alex Horne genuinely can’t contain his laugh
The Olympics have been real quiet since this level of sporting excellence was reached just saying
I hope we get something like "Taskmater's best outfits" I want to see Phil in there for personal reasons
is the pendulum drawing your eye?
@@JoaoPessoa86 the pendulum always draws the eye
I'd like to see Tim Vine's "tracksuit"
I wanna somehow see a clip of all the contestants of season 9 dressed up for the final episode. That was class
I’m glad I’m not the only one hot for Phil
I love taskmaster. Still hoping for a worst of the worst competition. Taskmaster, The Redemption. And the worst of the worst gets the better prize.
Omg yess!!
I think I remember someone saying that Alex has said he doesn’t want to do that because it might encourage people to act too stupid, to play up to the audience, and it wouldn’t be as natural. But bear in mind that this could very easily be not true, I just heard it
@@ampersandcastle1091 I read that he said it's due to mostly women and poc being in the bottom
Hugh Dennis is a national treasure. Why does no one acknowledge this?
What is Hugh Dennis?
Sun Hat Why is Hugh Dennis?
everybody always asks what is hugh dennis but nobody ever says how is hugh dennis :(
nob cheese Where is Hugh Dennis?
@@danielcooper1294 Chessington World of Adventures
Negative 3 seconds is still a better improvement than negative 53 seconds.
James still got more points than Phil, but I agree that Greg was being unfair.
And then Greg pretended like he was doing James a favor! James deserved these points air and squarr
No Nish Kumar getting the basketball through the hoop 'in one go'? Sacrilege!
Oh my, how they cheered, before the director really showed it LOL
This was absolutely needed
Anas Malas “That was a very dignified double celebration.”
"He called the ball racist twice."
The editing on the hula-hoop task is absolute perfection. "The pendulum draws the eye".
I cannot express how much I hate the Kill Bill outfit 🤣
I remain convinced that they hadn't planned that task until they saw Phil's suit.
The only show that should continue until and during the end of the world
I would add.. ESPECIALLY during the end of the world. ;)
survive the end of the world with the fewest number of steps should be the task
Cant believe noel smashing a baby bell across the pitch with a pool cue wasnt in this list!
I’d forgotten that but it’s 100% true
We need a Part 2 with Joe Wilkinson's potato throw and Russell Howard's cricket skills
"call me when I'm needed'
Yeah, none of the absolutely fantastic pure athletic things were in this one. Noel and Russell both had moments of total athletic ability. And I'd also call just chucking a javelin through the side of a caravan pretty damned athletic too.
@@kcolloran ... Bloody 'ell
Unplugging the treadmill was genius
I thought it might count as part of the machine and worried he'd get disqualified after his genius method until that point
I absolutely love when Alex breaks and really laughs, what a precious man
I'd love a video with the biggest taskmaster tragedies. And it absolutely has to include the legendary potato throw.
Greg's genuine delight at realising he just Beatboxed gives me life.
The fact that Russel’s one shot wonder wasn’t inhere is an absolute crime
Cannot believe Noel's epic whanging of a tiny cheese wheel with a broken snooker cue across a field isn't in here - as someone with almost no hand-eye coordination that was genuinely impressive to me.
The only thing more sad than Joe not getting credit for his potato throw in the show is the fact that it is not included as a great sporting achievement
3 exercise balls at the top of that hill has to be the best task ever. the humour of keeping the camera at the top and watching the balls slowly roll away was hilarious.
but where's the perfect jello throwing into the bucket? the jello shot, if you will
The ball task from season 2 was changed in Sweden in that the matt wasn't movable. However they had the shed so one guy cut the balls open. This was like Richard's attempt controversial to the group. At one point one person said "So if you'd cut open a puppy, is it still a puppy?" and he said something in style of "A dead puppy is the same as a deflated ball" and they argued the hell out of the task.
That first clip tho. Hugh is the epiotme of a sportsman
The way he flipped over the railings 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
4:40 Love how nerdy Doc looks with that run. Doesn't matter how cool you are when you have to start a startled run from a dead stop.
Leaving out Russell's bowling delivery is borderline criminal
There's something sweet about how Rhod and Kerry want James' first attempt at the hula task to be taken. Like, even they can see how much he cares. Given Kerry used James in one of her tasks in Champion Of Champions 2, I reckon she must be friends with him now.
Had to skip the hula hooping one, it's too tragic to see again so soon after this weeks episode.
I always loved it when Hugh did well.
the potato throw. please be in here
Edit: DAMMIT
Which season or episode was the legendary potato throw everybody is talking about? I am new to the show, but want to see the potato thing NOW.
@@Olothur series 2, episode 1
@@cassindra438 thanks dude
@@Olothur oh boy you'll love that, prepare to feel emotions when they talk about it during the audience part
It should have been the greatest achievement but Joe was robbed. That's the greatest sports travesty. Worse than the so called "hand of god" thing to be honest.
Does this make Hugh the most accomplished sportsman of Taskmaster?
Hugh and the treadmill has got me in stitches. Simple solution and did it in such a funny way
I think they should've included the time when Joe threw the potato in one shot and was a centimetre on the red green. I'm still upset they didn't give him the points for that!
Rob rolling to the microwave, I’m going to be sick from laughing so hard.
“I thought I’d go low key today”
Robb just launching himself over that bar was the best
Greg's face as he realizes that basic beat boxing can actually be broken into the phrase "boots and cats" was priceless.
My friends and I have just said that repeatedly because we thought it was a funny noise 🤣
Russell Howard should've been on here for his throw
Katherine Parkison and her shoe catapult? Had tears the whole time watching her do it!
I've always thought you could have beaten the egg golf by just picking the egg up and placing it in each hole by hand. Because then you have zero shots, so in the calculation of "Shots x Eggs x Minutes" you'll have a 0 for shots, rendering the entire score 0 no matter what.
Weirdly the way to win the egg mini golf task was by not actually playing golf as you said. Like Roisin was the only one to not take any actual shots? She just gently swept the eggs with her club the entire way through, so Alex could only count each “shot” from the moment she stopped dragging it. So she had an insanely low number of shots x only 1 egg (since she never broke any) x a pretty fast time, and won as a result. I think Alex even realized that the way he calculated the score was insanely broken because everyone else racked up a golf score in the thousands
Haven't seen it yet but I want the very last clip to be Russell Howard's 'Call me when I am needed' throw...
and its not even here!
It's almost like they forgot what video they were editing and took the worst sporting attempts after a few of them haha. Still love this shit.
This show literally helped me out of a particularly severe spell of panic attack and subsequent depression.
Amazing show, may it forever carry on.
Same here, this show is the only thing that made me smile today. So glad I found it, considering I’m not even British.
Not the one where Hugh does like 1 million rolls?
The hula hoop task guts me every time I see it
The “Sally Phillips 3-in-1” takes the (armpit) cake.
Calling this Taskmaster's Great Sporting Achievements and not putting in Joe Wilkinson's spectacular potato hole-in-one is blasphemy
3:15 you can tell it's an earlier series when they don't make Alex carry up 2 yoga balls while the car contest casually carries up one.
This is the third video in a week with the Wang/Acaster hula bit, yet I love it still.
Desky!!! I think he was the most brilliant contestant. Bending all the rules.
Was it him who disconnected the pipe to the shower to stop Alex from getting wet too?
His brilliance only got topped by Sally's giving birth to Alex's video. That was second to none.
Pretty sure that was Russel and Alice in series 6 🤔
Why do I know this 😂
“That club is a bit eggy”
The Chase is on.
12:53 😂😂😂😂
For the egg minigolf, none of the contestants worked out that if they didn't break any eggs, they could take as long as they liked and as many shots as they liked, and still get a zero score!
Bets on how many compilations they make where the Wilkinson Potato Throw should be included but isn't? Next one is gonna be Taskmaster's Greatest Potato Moments.
If Russell Howard's dart board talent isn't here I'm suing
EDIT: I'M SUING!
This show has taken over my life
If "call me when I'm needed" isn't here, I will riot
Okay then. Riot it is.
Ah yes, the task where the solution was "Mate, just take the mat to the balls"
That's what my Doctor tells me every week.
'the pendulum draws the eye...'
The 2020 olypmpics look great!
I miss the music from the first series
Start of the hula task is 8:57 on stage hula is 10:46 (please taskmaster, release the full uncut version of James’ hula hooping)
Its ashame Hughes touched the machine at the end.
Hugh in that last task 👏👏👏
Thank you for solidifying my lifelong argument that miniature golf is too an athletic activity!
another day asking for best puns (fish puns, tracksuit, etc)
You can really Phil the Wang in that Way of the Dragon suit he's wearing.
At 4:23-4:27, Joe is doing the "up your bum" sign. Magnificent
"Running machine".
Let’s be honest Hugh Dennis and the pommel horse needed to be in this video.
2:10~ great goal snow plough 😉
If taskmaster gave us anything it gave us the joy of knowing that Noel is an undercover lad.
A hard boiled egg takes 10 minutes, not 3.
Should have taken one egg out at three minutes and left the others in for longer.
I'd have put the ball in the bag, chipped it into the air and overhead kicked it into the goal (right on the line of course, I'm no pro). None of them seemed to realise the ball was there.
Why didn't anyone crawl to the microwave tho 😂😂
Love it guys, one again please find a way to allow full episodes to be available, I'll still watch the compilations you guys are great.
Taylor not for Australian viewers 😭😭😭
Hugh would be such a cool dad 😂
My favorite Acaster catchphrase is ""
Does anyone know what tune they put on the images of Phil and James' first hula attempts?
The pendulum draws the eye
For the egg golf task, did they ever say you had to like restart from where you shot if the eggs break? Feels like everyone was playing it differently
Season 4 is my fave
Imagine seeing Greg ride down that big hill on a chopper... Oh wait
Joe Wilkinson's potato throw not being in here..... absolutely ridiculous.
ROLLING IS THE FUTURE
Don't know why with the gym balls on the hill no one tried carrying two and kicking one up
One of them did (Jon I think? Been a while since I saw the episode) but it got out of control almost immediately
Did James ever say hello to Alex back?
9:03 Was it ever explained why Acaster did not reply to hellos from Horne?
"it's not part of the task"
Key, Mortimer, gamble, acaster, Parkinson dream line up
I love Wang in that bodyhugging/revealing suit :D
