Cause all she did was walk in a straight line, makes it way easier to time. The milk bit was definitely brilliant, though! She's def my favorite contestant this season.
Because she has occasional moments of brilliance but is mostly a dingbat. Take for example the “stone stepping”challenge where she repeatedly stepped off of the stones, held her hands above her waist multiple times and also missed stones.
Check 21:12 again she actually tried to do a bit of style, though they didn't care for it. She walked backwards on the moving floor and walked in place on the regular floor for a bit and still timed it perfectly. @@TheGrumbliestPuppy
Out of all the contestants on this show, I think i would have the hardest time not laughing at John because he just looks like hes trying so hard in every task but every task is so hard for him. Alex covering his face with the clipboard so he doesnt laugh was so relatable
Oh Fern! One of the most lovable cast members ever. Her commentary with tears of embarrassment on the walkway task is one of the cutest, most relatable moment of the series. PS: The reaction of the others especially Dara when she says " I don't know what is real anymore" is everything!
16:13 Sarah is one of my all-time favorite contestants because she just seems so happy about everything, lol. Would've LOVED to see her in a series with James Acaster for contrast.
I was really confused when the milk task didn't feature anyone having lunch while waiting for the task to be opened. Only just realized that the same task has been set for the New Zealand edition of taskmaster without a timelimit and fewer utensils. They reached a record-breaking time of around 1.5 hours. xD
I agree, Series 15 didn't work for me at all. One person had no ability to laugh at themselves, no humor. After the sensational Series 14, 15 was probably the worst season for me.
@@iliketrains3495the entire point of the show is to watch comedians prank/make fools of themselves on television. Why show up if you're that uncomfortable with being laughed at?
John said "the sort of thing Alex would do" is say "he wouldn't open it", then ask "why didn't you open it"? I'm pretty sure Alex has never done anything like that before. In fact, I think the Assistant character has always been 100% honest, and almost always gives away the answers if you pay attention.
Exactly! My first thought was, "OK, they should definitely wait until the last minute." My second thought was that they should ask him if he would pour all the milk in the pot before opening it.
Not only thought they would, but I was frustrated that no one did. That would have been my first step. Then time out moves with marks on the floor or the wall, and you can get it nearly perfect. 🤷🏻♂️
Wild ride learning that there are two totally independent Dennis the menaces. Then I find out that the UK and the US Dennis comics were released the same exact week without either author having any knowledge of the other existence
I went down a rabbit hole about Dennis the Menace cause im american and that guy is not the one i grew up with. Apparently the british one and american one debuted in the same week and neither creator had knowledge of the other. Great minds think alike i guess?
I am also American and did the exact same thing 😂 the sources for the character were completely different and they are completely unrelated, yet both iconic in their own respective cultures, what a cool coincidence! 🙂
I’m sure other folk see a task and their brains go, “I know how I’d do that!” Well, for the match walk task I knew I’d sing a song to myself I’m consistent at and then have a couple landmarks on the side of the path. So I know that when I sing, “I look at your pants, I need a kiss.” I should be at the trash can. Right? Or am I crazy?
if the walkalator is moving during both lanes, I'd just stand on it (pretend walking) and for the second time I'd walk while holding onto the handrail from the other side.
@@jankisi That’s why they put the one minute time restriction on it. They say that the moving sidewalk takes around 1 minute 25 seconds to go through until then, so they wouldn’t be able to just stand there.
How many turkeys in the post did Dara just doom himself to? He really should have talked to James Acaster about the dangers of this sort of thing. Oy oy savoy!
Fern tortured Alex last episode by putting him in a tube, making him catch bananas in his mouth, and bunch of other stuff. Then at the end of the task she just walked away. It was funny. But at an awards ceremony Alex said after the task was over he fell over and got hurt. His arms were trapped so he couldn’t brace himself is my guess. It sounded like he face planted. I think he said he had a black eye and I’m guessing that is injury you see in the video.
My fave is when people make a huge mess like milk all over the floor. But, I feel for the people that have to clean it up... I hope they are well paid.
LOL the way they censored Dara pushing up his goggles is hilarious! 😂 No, he wasn’t intentionally ‘flipping the bird’ but he used his middle finger so they censored it anyway and it just looks a bit over sensitive!
@@TheGrumbliestPuppy it wasn’t just that he had an affair. He was shown to know the young man when he was still a preteen/teenager and had contact with him through social media. He eventually helped the young man get a position at his (Scofields) place of work. There is understandably accusations of grooming due to when they established a met and the subsequent relationship, the age gap, and the multiple power imbalances in their relationship among other things.
@@JayJay-17Sounds bad, but I'll never really get on board with this notion that "power imbalance" is some sort of problem in romantic relationships. It implies we're all on some linear scale of "power", which isn't really the case - but also, straight women especially very obviously tend to be attracted to men with power (of some sort of another). For reasons that quite frankly make perfect sense. But somehow it's a mark against someone if they pursue a relationship with someone they were in a position to help, lift up, protect, provide for, etc... Just don't make no sense. The world, and the sexual dynamics of people, is never gonna lack so-called "power imbalances". Women are never gonna stop pursuing men with power, who could be said to be more "powerful" than them - physically, financially, in terms of status or authority... whatever. But also it's always more complicated than that too, and typically in these sorts of affairs both parties rely on each other for different things. The whole spice of romance comes from the reality that the two parties are not perfect equals, and the expectation that they should be or that that's the ideal is delusional. But all that said I'm sure this particular affair was shady and immoral based on what's been posted here - obviously adultery is gravely immoral, as is grooming kids, as is... nevermind. But it's not the "power imbalance" that makes it immoral.
Not sure which came first the NZ version of the milk task or the UK but having seen this task already when it started I just knew Sarah was gonna crush it
This reminds me of the year my grandmother had too much spinach in her garden and wanted to share. She mailed us a huge bag full. We never did tell her it was inedible by the time it arrived!
Surprised none of them thought to do a Hudson Hawk for the walkway challenge. Writing a little song or a rap would be stylish while helping you time it.
They were all way more graceful in the microwave task. My first instinct would've been to throw both microwaves down, put them together to form a seat, empty the milk bottles and just sit on the microwaves with my arms, bottles and hands resting on my legs directly above the microwaves I'm sitting on. Alex would probably have killed me lol.
I thought the exact same thing. Well, gonna watch it again to find out, if I can spot any missing parts. But maybe, that's what they wanted all along? 😀
There's something about John and Munya, where they play off each other to make each other more extreme characters, and I can't figure out if they'd be quite good friends or never speak to each other again.
so you could have dropped the microwaves on the ground, shove them close with your legs and proceed to hang above it with your arms and the bottles in hand. While you are there, you hopefully see the pan and figure out you can empty the bottles as well. You could even stand on the microwaves and rest the bottles on your shoulders!
Make one with the CycloRoators that can use the same spinning action to also move along the ground. Like wheels that utilize the same rotating drum shape, and have it take flight.
Apologies for re-posting. There was an issue with the video. Episode 7 will be available this weekend!
Thanks, bud.
Such a good show I hardly mind
Upload Episode 7 by this weekend. Your time starts now.
It's worth the rewatch for further analysis
read this in the voice of little alex horne
My favorite part of this show is when Alex tries to hide his laughter with his clip board.
that made me laugh so hard🤣🤣
It’s an ipad, but since this is technically a clip show you are still correct!
@@ZeldaLover1031He uses both, and in this case, it's clearly a clipboard when he's laughing at John during the stepping stones task.
Or when Greg tries to be Taskmaster serious in the midst of something extremely funny
You mean like he does in every episode?
Why is noone talking about Sarah's brilliance at EXACT timing on the walks! That was incredible! And how she poured the milk out! Brilliant!
Cause all she did was walk in a straight line, makes it way easier to time. The milk bit was definitely brilliant, though! She's def my favorite contestant this season.

Not sure how slowly walking, with the luggage on the wrong side, wrong leg lifts... are brilliant?
@@v10dodge87 She got five points, so ...
Out of all the contestants on this show, I think i would have the hardest time not laughing at John because he just looks like hes trying so hard in every task but every task is so hard for him. Alex covering his face with the clipboard so he doesnt laugh was so relatable
If he can be this successful in life, anyone can.
Yup, he does it nearly every episode.
The fact that Sarah managed to break every single rule on the last one is impressive
There were only two rules and everyone broke both rules except Dara
Oh Fern! One of the most lovable cast members ever. Her commentary with tears of embarrassment on the walkway task is one of the cutest, most relatable moment of the series. PS: The reaction of the others especially Dara when she says " I don't know what is real anymore" is everything!
She grew on me.
Yeah she grew on me too, much like a fern would
@@ashb7 Ferns make a canny noise like
That looked like classic ADHD unawareness of time. It was a bit hard to watch.
She also didn't mirror, her bag was on the same side both walks.
I've come to really like Munya's sense of humor after watching these. He's very quick witted.
It’s because he’s from Zimbabwe
@@harryjoe860😑 that was getting me bored, all the Zimbabwee jokes
@@Klaproossje it's a Zimbabwe thing you wouldn't get it
He's like Usopp with all the obviously outlandish tales and being dead serious about em, it is so funny
I like Zimbabwe jokes, it gets funnier with every repeat
John accepts his blupses and poor outcomes with SUCH good grace. I truly respect him and liked him more and more as the episodes went on.
Strangely, the milk microwave dilemma is one of my favorite tasks to date
It’s also my new band name!
I love that it was basically "who can stand being in a room with Alex being weird the longest".
It’s from the nz taskmaster but slightly changed from the original so it’s still interesting even if you know the original
They probably changed it for time reasons since in the nz version it went on for ages.
I love the intro for this series so much, tune in for every Fern Brady, "WhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAA!"
NO WAY!
ME FERN BRADY, ME FERN BRADY
I want that to be the sound my phone makes when I get a text 🤣
Wait, what? 😂
16:13 Sarah is one of my all-time favorite contestants because she just seems so happy about everything, lol. Would've LOVED to see her in a series with James Acaster for contrast.
Sarah and Chris Ramsey would have been an amazing pair.
James is my man. Those two would have been spectacular as team partners!
OMG YES

Went to go watch the clip from Taskmaster NZ after seeing this comment and I'm so thankful because it was amazing.
I knew the setup looked familiar.
David (the winner of the task in NZ) was so trusting...and it paid off !
Tbh this version was worse. I'm not sure why it has to be changed. I feel like changes to redone tasks never make them better.
They probably had a schedule and didn’t want to risk everybody taking hours.
Sarah was already my favorite of this series but the “I had a nice coat on *shrug*” cemented it even more.
She is such a delight 😊
When you're excited for episode 7, but all you get is another long-legged lobster
story of our lives
I was high the first time, so it was basically new again, sober life sounds hard.
I know!
😂😂😂
Wait…what?
That moment when Dara realizes that he messed up, you can see Alex in background stunned wheeze and laugh 17:10
It cracks me up that the milk task had like 6 red herrings to distract the players. 😂😂😂
Dara looked so proud holding his braid at the end of the final task!
33:12 sometimes the universe just helps out in the entertainment so amazingly
It's like God's having a laugh
Season 14 is up there with 2 and 7 for the best cast. Fern Brady is perfect for this show!
14 is the best. The panel are well matched and seem to really like each other, they just seem well matched but others sometimes just don’t gel.
I agree, Series 15 didn't work for me at all. One person had no ability to laugh at themselves, no humor. After the sensational Series 14, 15 was probably the worst season for me.
@@shirleykibbie5149 they didn’t want to be humilated

@@iliketrains3495the entire point of the show is to watch comedians prank/make fools of themselves on television. Why show up if you're that uncomfortable with being laughed at?
cooking with air fryer while watching this got up like 5 times thinking my food was done during the microwave/milk task.
The timed walk task confirmed: Fern Brady is a delight, the most precious bean, and must be protected at all costs.
John said "the sort of thing Alex would do" is say "he wouldn't open it", then ask "why didn't you open it"? I'm pretty sure Alex has never done anything like that before.

Exactly! My first thought was, "OK, they should definitely wait until the last minute." My second thought was that they should ask him if he would pour all the milk in the pot before opening it.
After so many intros as "Little Alex Horne", I thought he was actually a small man. I found out today that he is 6'1".
well he says he’s over six foot but he’s five foot four.
believing anything greg says when he introduces alex is a recipe for an inaccurate picture of reality
@@user-v4v5cstill cant forgive him for calling all women “a little chopsy”
Compared to Greg’s 6’8 height he is indeed quite little
When you’re 6’8, everyone is little in comparison 😂
Am I the only one who thought someone would hit the emergency stop on the travellator before starting?
Not only thought they would, but I was frustrated that no one did. That would have been my first step. Then time out moves with marks on the floor or the wall, and you can get it nearly perfect. 🤷🏻♂️
Fern's suitcase walk killed me!
That music during Sarah's timed walk task is actually haunting...
It’s the same tune they used for "copy Alex" in the series with Morgana ❤
Sounds like Squid Game sountrack
Chawawa killed me at the end when he finally figured out the feet and inches debacle.
Definitely a bit slow there huh? lol
Wild ride learning that there are two totally independent Dennis the menaces. Then I find out that the UK and the US Dennis comics were released the same exact week without either author having any knowledge of the other existence
E music is always great but in this episode it's just sensational. Loved the Soviet March, Munya's Bond score and the Unicorn Fantasy!
have I seen this as it originally aired? yes. have I re-watched it last weekend? yes. did I re-watch it again was it was re-posted? yes.
I went down a rabbit hole about Dennis the Menace cause im american and that guy is not the one i grew up with. Apparently the british one and american one debuted in the same week and neither creator had knowledge of the other. Great minds think alike i guess?

I am also American and did the exact same thing 😂 the sources for the character were completely different and they are completely unrelated, yet both iconic in their own respective cultures, what a cool coincidence! 🙂
16:43 I love that John introduced the Regret Mind shelf and everyone just ran with it. 😂😂
Dara has easily become one of my favorites. 🦄
Uuuhma baby never leaves my mind
25:00 "Hold me back John" 😂
The Taskmaster Gods really blessed us with Chris Ramsay and "No way!" last season and then Dara with "Wait, what?!" this season
28:50 Is it just me or did he most certainly fill John's paint hat to the brim, more than the others? 😆🤣
As someone who can do basically nothing because of shoulder injuries, I found Fern even more relatable this time.
How'd you get em?
@@SquareNoggin
Probably masturbation. Or seal clubbing.
How come the judges or other competitors not notice that munya wasnt mirroring his action he had the bag in the same hand on both the aisle.
Agreed, but I don't mind because he was too far behind to win this season anyways.
I think the term "mirroring" here was used simply to mean the actions done in both attempts (on each side) not strictly a mirror.
@@JohnVanderbeck Alex would have said duplicate then.
The cheers after John made that paint jump
My favourite moments from this season are whenever reality hits john and he starts laughing like a maniac
The music starting at 40:53 sounds like Katherine Ryan's song about the Mayor of Chesham. "That's Peter Hudson. You know you can trust him."
Sarah gave it to the man again at 44:34
I’m sure other folk see a task and their brains go, “I know how I’d do that!” Well, for the match walk task I knew I’d sing a song to myself I’m consistent at and then have a couple landmarks on the side of the path.

Wow. So there arose simultaneously two very different comic strips with the name Dennis the Menace.
I love how highly personal Sarah's prize task was! I also love when everyone gets disqualified in a task, this was magnificent.
How many turkeys in the post did Dara just doom himself to? He really should have talked to James Acaster about the dangers of this sort of thing. Oy oy savoy!
I just noticed Poor Alexs' right eye brow appears to have an injury, I hope the poor little fella is alright.
Wasn't there something with Fern accidentally hurting him last episode?
Fern tortured Alex last episode by putting him in a tube, making him catch bananas in his mouth, and bunch of other stuff. Then at the end of the task she just walked away. It was funny.

is there a time stamp? I don’t see it
I rewatched the episode and can’t find it 😅
He discusses it in his AMA interview on UA-cam
Fern’s shoes and clothes are so beautiful and well-tailored each week! And hair and make-up. Just so sweet and lovely!
I love her style 💖
My fave is when people make a huge mess like milk all over the floor. But, I feel for the people that have to clean it up... I hope they are well paid.
Fern is an absolute sweetheart ❤ certainly rooting for her .
I love her accent. Adorable
The Japanese on Munya shirt says Casablanca.
This is my third time watching this series. I love this cast. Each and everyone.
How is this episode not titled "Wait What"?
LOL the way they censored Dara pushing up his goggles is hilarious! 😂 No, he wasn’t intentionally ‘flipping the bird’ but he used his middle finger so they censored it anyway and it just looks a bit over sensitive!
I feel like Dara's "Wait, what wait" is the mind of a gamer being frustrated that he can't pause life to assess the situation then continue again.
21:00 I've literally just realised that this is the "Alex in a church" song.
Fern is absolutely adorable!
if they go to the lab, its because it might get messy. so contestants could take that as a clue and spill the milk

is Dara uploading these? "wait, what?" lol
What, wait.
Vaitus vattus!

Dara would be an excellent Taskmaster.
They all figured out they could pick up the stepping stones....not 1 of them thought to just make a route around the obstacles with them? 🤣
33:09 Very nice work on the music there. (But they missed the opportunity to use the Lee Mack's suggestion: the swannee whistle, from s11e5)

Off topic but I adore Fern’s headband. Anyone know where I can get it?

While you're at it, could you fix Season 13's playlist? episode 10 is in the middle weirdly.
