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
I love that Jo made the sound guy hold the bin and made Alex the sound guy instead of just having Alex hold the bin
It's important to emphasise to Alex how interchangeable he is.
@@Tao_Tology And I suppose also to the sound guy? :D
@@maagiapall Oh, no, he got screentime AND dialogue.
That's quite the equity bump. 😄
@@Tao_Tology Greg would give you a bonus point for that comment
To be fair the sound guy is much more reliable,
"We've set you a tricky thing to do, then we've given you, personally, the extra challenge of being David Baddiel" well spoken and utterly savage
And so true
7:23
You can see why they didn't give Rhod this task.
"Throw something into a bin from the furthest distance, and the bin must be shut when I throw it? Easy that. Alex, you hold the bin at about chest height. Now... Where's that Javelin?" 🤣
Actually, that’s brilliant. A javelin would still be lodged IN the bin,
“But first you’re gonna have to strip off Alex..”
that's not a bin
@@jacksawild wut?
@@bap175 Drop your kecks, Alex, there's a good lad. Right. Hold still!
I cant believe that Jo is the only person who asked someone else to open the bin it seems like the obvious thing to do
yeah, well technically she wasn't the only one...
David had alex try open it for him, but for some utterly ͏s͏t͏u͏p͏i͏d ͏r͏e͏t͏a͏r͏d͏e͏d reason, he had him stand next to him instead of standing at the bin. Seeing that level of stupidity genuinely makes me angry for some reason
David did too technically except he wanted Alex to pull it open with a rope.
Well even more perplexing is that David did have the idea of recruiting Alex.... and then placed him 10 m back, yanking on a fucking extension cord.
I'm just amazed nobody used the ambiguity of the wording. The task says "into", not "inside", so you could argue that a ball simply hitting the ball would count as throwing it into the bin. Like throwing a cricket ball into the stumps
@@bendubz9000 don't think greg would have stood for that tbh
Nothing is more terrifying than Ed Gamble's looming face as he looks into the pedal bin.
Pedal* bin. I’d have thought you’d have known that, given its where most of your “opinions” belong!
The look of surprise and realisation on Horne's face when he 'absorbed' a cake was pretty terrifying.
Or arousing, it's difficult to tell.
It's amazing how eloquently Greg states that David is "challenged".
6:52 "It wasn't embarrassing for me" - moves away in an embarrassed way. Gotta love Alex's physical comedy
David's abysmal performance overtime sublimated itself into a savant level of ineptitude. It just made it all the more entertaining
I'm sorry??
@@mattygee6852 What are you sorry for?
@@AtomicMonkeybutt let me rephrase
What the fuck did op say
The bin was definitely closed. It just also happened to be broken, but that doesn’t make it not closed.
while one could argue the semantics of the word "closed" the trick is to remember that the keyword wasn't "closed" but "shut". While a bin with a hole in it may arguably no longer closed, its lid however is shut.
Nothing in the task about the bin being intact.
Kicking the bottom out was pretty clever. Risky though. It's hard to tell sometimes how the taskmaster will make rulings. He could just as easily have said that the bin wasn't closed when the objects were thrown. This show really has a way of blurring the lines between madness and genius.
The difference between genius and insanity is measured only by success.
From the card: "The peddle bin must be shut when you throw your thing." Since it didn't say the lid must be shut, there is a lot of room for interpretation by Greg. But "shut" does not necessarily mean "entirely enclosed."
Yes, that is the central conceit of the show: the tasks are usually written with enough room for interpretation to allow for imaginative solutions (I bet the creative team behind the show have lots of guesses for how contestants might do things that then never pan out), but with a twist in that the contestants still need to play it relatively straight in order to not be penalised by the taskmaster.
The Butch Boy 😂
Alex once again showing how sharp and fast he is with his comic timing.
once again Jo Brand has a brilliant idea but can't be bothered to do it. you've got to admire her commitment to her ideals (as little physical effort as possible)
"Desparation" - "DEDICATION!!!!!"
Alex’s reaction when she says she’s going to throw a brick 😂😂😂
A fantistic day when the sound guy has a valid reason to be in the shot ensuring that the best quality sound can be recorded reguardless of where the camera is pointed. Until alex becomes the sound guy, then all bets are off in reguards to sound quality.
When I first saw this task, I immediately assumed the contestants would all be building a sort of marble run, throw the ball into one end, and then have enough time to run to the bin and open the lid. And then none of them did xD Maybe it would have been disqualified for not actually throwing the ball 'into' the bin.
I assumed they would remove the bottom and put the bin upside down; and argue that the bin was closed (as the lid on the bottom is closed). Another thing I thought someone would do is build a funnel, throw into the funnel and then only open the lid when the item was in the funnel.
They only had 20 minutes and time starts when they finish reading the task.
Apparently this was the first task they recorded. David Baddiel literally woke up, chose chaos and never looked back 😂😂😂
Jo Brand being utterly lazy is always a delight.
my plan would probably be to toss a ball as far in the air as i could and then pick up the can and try to catch the ball when it falls down
Doesn’t matter how high the ball goes, you would only be a few feet from where you started 😕
@@Fartacus44 you gotta be a serious pro to toss a ball straight up. a normal person even if they throw it up it's not going to land the same place they tossed from so distance would be made and even if the distance isn't that far just redo it over and over for the longest distance.
@@Fartacus44 you could see how much the golf ball was bouncing, you could easily toss the golf ball and catch it after several bounces a good 15m or 50 feet from where you started
Exactly what I was thinking
They missed the Tim Key method: funnel the thing into the bin with some drapes or tarps.
I think the easiest method would be to throw a tennis ball vertically up, then pick up the bin, open the lid and catch the ball
Ed is my absolute hero "IT'S DEDICATION!"
Think I might’ve tried to assemble some sort of haphazard funnel system to slow the ball down
Yeah I was thinking bottom of the drain spout, and throw a bucket of water/ water balloons on the roof.
I love Greg reciting Ed's sexy phrases
One of my first thoughts was to break or cut a hole into the bin so things could go in even with the lid shut. I did not realize however that it would be that easy to just kick the bottom out lol
"DEDICATION DAVID!!!!"
🤣 🤣 🤣
I was wondering if someone was going to go grab a plate, "Throw" the ball onto the plate from a long way off, then carry the ball over to the bin. Technically they would never have touched the ball from the moment it was released to when it went in the bin.
i think Jo was thinking about something similar, and then realized she didn’t feel like walking and changed plans.
"Was it embarrassing?"
"It wasn't embarrassing for me"
What I learned from Taskmaster is to always think outside the box, or rather inside the box in this case.
I would have put 'something' in the bin, close it, throw the bin the furthest. Probably would have shucked it from out of a window of the house.
Now, I threw 'something in the bin', the lid was shut, furthest distance.
You would have thrown it more than 12 meters? I doubt it
Gamble took quite a gamble there.
lucky for alex greg has the range of motion similar to rock golem otherwise he'd have got savaged in that little tennis skit
alex is like the best butler
As much as I love (almost) every series of this show I think this is the cast I’d most like to see return. Or at least a spinoff show with Rose, Ed, and David.
My ideal cast would be Ed, David, Rhod, Hugh, and Joe.
Gotta love Rose and her 'piddle' bin 😊
Greg Davies reading Ed Gamble's erotic phrases...I'd buy that audiobook!
They could've asked Alex to open it.
Absolutely love this show. This was a good season too.
Why can i not find episode 5 n up?
I would have stood at the top of the driveway, thrown a tennis ball only like a foot, then run down to the bottom of the driveway before the ball rolls there and then open the bin and scoop up the ball.
Wrap a plastic bag "parachute" round a tennis ball, throw it up in the air, and then catch it in the bin.
The lid on Ed's bin looked like it was slightly wedged open when he eventually started throwing
Some times Alex I don’t think you are utilised as you would wish . But I’m not in show Business.
They didn't even talk about the broken window lmao.
Big brain move from Ed right there
Toss a ball in the air, let the ball bounce, begin dribbling the ball, dribble the ball to the bin, open the bin, knock the ball in the bin
Ed's solution was the first one I thought of too.
get that bin!!!
Bin that get!
That get bin!
Bin get that!
that bin get!
get bin that!
I want a Pop Vinyl of Alex as the sound guy
Could also have rolled it from the top of the hill, then beat it down and scooped it up with the bin.
Bold Move, Ed Gamble. Let's see if it pays off.
Oh, nice. it did. Well done!
First thought: I wonder if there is an object around the house that could pierce the side of the bin. Perhaps a crowbar or a beach umbrella.
When he pulled the bin over and it opened up, my second thought was that I don't think the rules didn't say the bin had to be standing. It'd be much easier to open the lid and bounce a ball in if it was on its side.
I forgot how good this season was
I legitimately cannot tell what the actual ffffuck David was thinking here.
Throw a ball, catch it with a bag (the bag not touching ground), drive through a town and drop it into the bin. Yes?
Ed likes his denim.
katie deserved a bonus point for insulting alex
So I would’ve gotten some kind of long tube with an opening at the beginning that goes all the way from the roof to the bin, “throw” it onto the opening of the tube, have it roll down and have Alex open the bin for me right after I “throw” it into the tube.
Did the taskmaster just split a fucking net from the power of his hit in the intro?
Couldnt you just hold the bin in one arm with the lid shut, then utterly yeet something directly into the sky, then open the bin with now both free hands, and run around and try to catch what you threw into the sky, in the bin....
Then you would have thrown it from about 1 cm since you were right next to the bin when throwing
Could you not have just thrown the ball into the air and caught it and walked it over to the shut bin from whatever distance you liked and tossed it in. There was no rule stating the ball had to be airborne the entire time, just that the lid had to be shut when the ball was first thrown.
It’s too bad they cut out the VAR bit from Jo’s attempt.
Rose is amazing
Please put the new season on . I've seen the first 12 seasons so many times now 🤣
the poster joke at the end went over my head, was it a callback to something?
This episode Rose's prize was a poster of fish.
I think Rose brought in a poster with a lot of fish native to New Zealand for the prize task, but I can't remember what the category was
@@NickHoad Things you find in a shid... sorry a shEd xD
@@DragOnDani01 I think you mean a shAd!!!!
She said something that in New zealand every shed has that one poster of a fish.
I find it hard to believe David could have had a kid with how physically incompetent he is
when is the next series coming out
Where can we watch full episode of series 9 in the US?
We'll be releasing episodes of series 9 in the US every Friday. Episode 1 will be available tomorrow.
David and lassoing don’t seem to get along do they?
he is SO dumb. Why not just have Alex lift the lid?
Take the plastic bin out of the metal casing, drop object in, put plastic bin back in metal casing, close the lid. Bosh.
I wonder if throwing straight up and then picking up the bin would have been allowed
I think it would have been allowed, but you wouldn’t get much distance if you were right next to the bin
@@Bobody770 Depends if it's the distance the bin is from you or the total distance the ball travelled.
@@Tao_Tology well it said throw it from the furthest distance... not "make it travel the furthest distance and return"
Why did none of them shut the door when they came outside?
Task: "Throw something from the longest distance into the pedal bin"
solution: Find something stamped "Made in China"... ask Alex to open bin... stand next to bin... toss it in!
Throw something into the bin. I wonder if light could work. A contestant would ask a crew member to hold a mirror angled in way that would deflect the laser light into the bin. Another member would open the bin to let the light in.
They would turn the laser on and point at the mirror, but the mirror isn't angled correctly. It will only be angled correctly once the crew member opens the bin.
The problem here is how they'll argue that they "threw" the light in. Seeing as light is an intangible object. Can you even "throw" light?
But then again. The task was to throw a thing into the bin. They could argue that light is a thing. An intangible intangible thing but a thing nonetheless.
To win this challenge, get an angle grinder and cut a hole in the top of the bin, then just throw the ball in
Or just do what Ed did, easier
Or, listen to this max idea - you could kick the bottom out and just flip it upside down. No power tools needed.
Not sure how I thought of it!
@@squidge903 almost as if it's only something a champion of the series would do
@@squidge903 awkward, I said that in the comments...
Huh.. skimmed a lot of comments and no one else picked up on this.. task said 'throw something into bin, when you throw your thing the lid must be closed' (or words to that effect)..
Does that not mean I can throw 'my thing' (eg. My phone or something), then place a brick on the bin peddle and throw something into it?
the sport of international bin chuck is just tub chuck with this loophole. I demand a revision of the rules to prevent this sport from dying out.
I’m from New Zealand and I know there’s that joke of having a fish poster in the shed, but where did that joke start? I’ve only ever heard fish posters in sheds talked about on taskmaster and only found taskmaster related results when I googled it. I have never seen a fish poster in a shed, I have only ever seen them at the fish and chip shop.
Rose Matafeo brought a fish poster as a prize task and said all good New Zealand sheds had a fish poster in them.
@@richardparker1490 why’d she say that? Because like I said before, when searched online I can’t find anything saying that and I’ve never seen a fish poster in anyone’s shed here.
huh
i got a fish poster in my garage, from new zealand idk what that means tho
@@rachelcookie321 I can't remember if there was any criteria for the prize task other than it being in a shed (best/worst/craziest etc), but Rose probably looked in her shed, picked the poster that she happens to have in there, then came up with an explanation afterwards to make it fit the task.
I would have made a net/bag above the bin. Threw it in the net, goes closer to open the bin and untie the bag so the ball falls open.. Idk why my instinct went there
I don’t know what Alex gets paid but it’s not enough
Alex get's paid a lot. He invented the show - he's the real boss.
Why is my idea the bath on the roof, a little bit of water and a rope on the plug. Throw the ball up. Put bin next to gutter exit and open it. Pull rope so bath drains with ball through gutter into the bin
but why?
if you throw something small enough to fit into the gutter, you could cut the bath altogether out of the schematics
Ya'll got most of series 9 blocked in the US. At least put up a sponsor link to a VPN.
Does Alex wear a cup to work?
If not he probably should
So why didn't they just throw the ball and then pick it up and put it in the can?
In my opinion for Ed's the bin was open.
Not many comments. Hello
Wow I'm the 1K like. That was pretty cool to see the 999 change. Anyhow love this show. Much respect to everyone involved
A bin is absolutely not closed if it has an opening in it.
The Bin had to be closed when you threw the object... putting a hole in the bottom gives the bin a open hole in the bin.... key word open... it wasn't closed.
Idk man the bin didnt seem closed for Ed's attempts. a closed 3d object doesnt have a fucking hole in it.
that one did
@@yourmum69_420 XD
Ed and Rose were the only highlights of this series
Why do thumbnails of this show which show either Joe Lycett or Ed Gamble irritate me so much?
:-)
David maybe feeling a little emasculated there calling Ed desperate.
I like Jo brand BUT think she could have tried a little harder she came across as lazy.
It would be a good show if I wouldn't have to listen to this horrified accent
