Series 14's Funniest INSULTS & COMEBACKS! | Taskmaster | Channel 4

[@Cheskaz]

It's even funnier given his main on the Off Menu Podcast

[@gianabakanos9131]

[@Tasarran]

Alex kind of laughs like a weak version of Jimmy Carr

[@Abigail_Wyatt]

His specific laugh makes it even better

[@TeamDX929]

John Kearns was amazing. He made me laugh almost effortlessly every time he was in the studio trying to explain himself to Greg.

[@stephengilmore2741]

"Have you seen, uhhh... have you seen my sailor's hat?" - An underappreciated line out of so many great lines. There's a reason he features so much in this video!

When he failed miserably it was hilarious, and when he miraculously succeeded it was amazing.

[@flippetskater]

I just adore how Alex laughs when someone really burns Greg in a spectacular way. 😂

[@bigjedimullet]

“You seem like you just eat roasts” is such a specific insult! 😂

[@LouCadle]

It's worth rewatching them all just to stare at Alex. He breaks that stone face a lot... into 1) laughter 2) utter embarrassment around the women contestants, or 3) sincere confusion at WTF the contestant is doing or thinking. It's adorable.

[@keithpanton7486]

Even better when Alex dares to shoot back himself. "you great manatee in a suit!"

[@laurenreilly7389]

Sarah Millican burning Greg is still my favorite of the last few seasons. She says it so straight faced lmao

[@jackwang9536]

In Ep. 10's prize task, Dara made a joke about his prize task (the asteroid), then Munya makes a joke, then Sarah, then Fern, then John. This little moment, to be able to riff one after another, shows just how incredibly gifted this cast is at comedy.

[@danielurban3416]

"You haven't seen mine yet" is a contender for funniest moment in the whole series for me

An amazingly funny group! Kearns is priceless. Dara is funnier than I ever realized. Sarah is pure genius. Munya is so talented. Fern is crazy clever. What a cast.

[@felipemaldonado8028]

My favourite season together with season 7. The team studio task when they needed to create questions so Greg would guess the keyword, absolutely killed me.

[@ABPerlov]

I love how John Kearns makes Fern Brady laugh uncontrollably so many times.

[@aaljustaal1890]

I mean this in the most genuine and positive way possible, I think John would make a wonderful cartoon mouse. Like, if they made another adaptation of The Tale of Despereaux, John would be an excellent choice for a voice actor

OMG, I've seen this before and yet I just laughed out loud almost spitting my food out when Greg told John that at one point he chose a black hand! Hilarious!

There's a fun call back to his hat in one of the tasks on the new series.

Hugh Dennis or John Kearns. Who is the worst ever prize task contestant?

[@iliketrains3495]

John actually won quite a few prize tasks, Hugh is the all time lowest scorer. Ironically, Hugh still finished ahead of Lolly who is the all time highest scorer in prize tasks

[@jamesgolbey8011]

Off the top of my head, I think Joe Thomas was the most literal prize tasker so I would have gone with him

[@liambradley6718]

[@mg5347]

[@arghjayem]

09:02 why would you need a wheelbarrow to carry £1000 worth of £20 notes? There are 5 £20 notes in a hundred, ten hundreds in a thousand. So a thousand pounds in £20 notes is 50 £20 notes. A £20 note is 0.113mm thick so a stack of 50 £20 notes is 5.56mm thick. Hardly worth using a wheelbarrow to “carry home” when it would quite easily fit in your pocket. And you couldn’t get £1000 worth of pennies in a wheel barrow. There would be too many pennies to fit and it would be too heavy, about 346kg.

[@davidhoward4715]

Someone tell me! I need to know! What's the significance of a chicken auction?

[@danniantagonist]

Fast-talking auctioneers. Seriously it's like they speak a totally different language.
