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.

I would have put Paul in first. I thought it was genuinely clever to mix slow-mo and sped up footage.

[@Becky-uz8em]

Agreed! He should've won it. Oh well

[@antonliakhovitch8306]

He did have to rely on the skills of the editing team, although I don't know if that's a pro or a con

[@ADownerKitty]

Anton Liakhovitch it's just part of the task I guess not really a pro or a con

[@QemeH]

@@ADownerKitty Agree. He kinda double-delivered on the task in that his was sped up AND slow-mo.

[@AshleyClarkey]

@@QemeH You could technically argue that's made him fail the task. "Do something that looks good when sped up OR slowed down" No mention of both.

[@erinkatee]

Al's approach to any task is 'When in doubt, gong it out'

[@mikemack9701]

He's gong mad.

[@JohnDoe-ni9zm]

well what else are you gonga do?

[@ealdwine3739]

@@JacktheRah think that was Phil Wang’s approach

[@DarthUmbreon]

This was first task I’ve seen where they all did genuinely really well

[@thelonesculler]

Meanwhile at the complete opposite end of the spectrum is "filleth this cup so that it overfloweth"

[@ben73771]

The video game one was amazing

[@gregothy9190]

Really? I feel like this is the worst one I've ever seen

[@CheeseduckClaire]

It's not really a good assignment, cause like, everything looks brilliant sped up or slowed down.

[@chris-hayes]

1:02 that's the face of a man who knows going first means you didn't win

[@Unagodd]

Just discovering this Taskmaster stuff and can I just say how glad I am you found an audio engineer sometime in mid- to late-2021 who knows how to normalize volume levels? Quite glad, really.

[@Raccido]

Seriously, how did they keep that editor for so long? What was their normal job, because I can't imagine that it's editing.

[@kisbie]

Love Alex’s reaction when Greg admits his surprise that Paul’s film was good.

[@EEEEEEEE]

[@pepela8214]

Paul's is really clever. It looks good when it's slowed down and sped up. So, there was really only one speed of video they could have shown.

[@meganfletcher4685]

Love that Rob just took it as a reason to smack some shit haha

[@WereDictionary]

I always have the impression that Rob Beckett is 97% teeth.

[@mikemack9701]

The remaining three percent is old peanut butter toffee wedged between.

[@Ryanrulesok]

I like whether it's a cloud of smoke, a pitch black room or a cloud of flour you can still see Rob Becketts teeth

[@panda4247]

having seen the whole episode before, I have just realised, Dave got the sunglasses after the balloon popped! Cool!

[@starfish.426]

Al Murray and the gong Best duo ever

[@marchatesyou1]

the gong and the dong!

[@JasmineSurrealVideos]

As a robot nut, Sarah's was the best for me, I loved the wonky cute 70s/80s tin foil friendly bot and the matching dancing, very visually entertaining and cute. I'd have a longer video of that, it's great.

[@jammydodger7065]

Rob is the master of power poses, that's for sure

[@angrytexan666]

After having a rather bad day, seeing you guys post another fun video helps bring it back around.

[@SnowTheJamMan]

Paul smashed it here

[@davidwhitfield7864]

"He's gong mad... gong..."

[@louloumagoo2512]

Al's was funniest; Dave's and Paul's were, unquestionably, the best.

[@mikemack9701]

Paul's was nearly amazing, save a few shoddy cuts.

[@diogoravasco6792]

I don't get what's funny about Al's. Is it that he is dressed as a woman, is that all?

[@Yue_Jin]

@@diogoravasco6792 Didn't even look good in slo mo either.

[@diogoravasco6792]

@@Yue_Jin Right?? I don't know if it's common in Britain, but it is a bit in my country, where you have genuinely funny people that somehow find the lowest common denominator type humour gut-bustingly hilarious. I never understood that. Men dressed as women talking in shrieking voices, nudity, farts, etc. can be made funny, but aren't funny in and of itself, but to some just their concept is top-tier humour.

[@CrownPrincessofLunaria]

@@diogoravasco6792 he's not even dressed as a woman........that looks like a caveman costume used as a joke which given the era of the gong, is actually pretty funny paired with the wig falling off and his stupid surprise at the end. Seeing as low brow humour isn't your thing and given what you've said. You are just plain ignorant. Also slap stick comedy will always be funny. From the late show with Stephen Colbert to Tom and Jerry, low brow humour perfectly encapsulates humanity and it's primitive side. You must remember we are still apes....we are still scientifically a type of monkey.

[@TheJohtaja]

YES! THANK YOU! A properly edite Full Task, with points and all!

[@Smithy250]

I thought robs was shit. The rest were genuinely entertaining and quite clever

[@tigerbread78]

Yup, I honestly wanted to slap him for this lazy attempt

[@kid12j]

At this point Al should just buy a gong instead of renting it out

[@chrisgenovese8188]

"it's harder when they do well" lol, these were all really good.

[@evanfischer147]

I bet doing an ultra slow mo of slapping alex wouldve been great brilliant even

[@exessex3522]

Paul Chowdhry's film was by far and away the most fun to watch, followed by Sarah Pascoe's.

[@QemeH]

@bOOp a bOOb Sara's wasn't even really sped up, it was more stop-motion...

[@ashboy225]

Bet nobody noticed the Taskmasters assistant Alex is only wearing 1 shoe, and 1 cheeser out in the air

[@ProfX501]

He was asked to take it off in the middle of the episode.

[@bobothn]

He had accepted a bribe from Al Murray earlier in the episode and ordered to take off his shoe as punishment.

[@serioushex3893]

that first one was really good.

[@antenant9294]

There will never be a better slo-mo than the last few seconds of Blackadder Goes Forth. Looks terrible at normal speed, but in the slow broadcast version...

[@des2knee962]

The robot dance in slower speeds on KZbin is also cool

[@akiramontecillo2420]

If I was the Taskmaster it'd be: 1) the Ball Kicking 2) the Robot Dance 3) the Balloon Shades 4) Stuff Hitting 4) Gong Surprise ..but I'm not. So

[@mikael8433]

I wonder when they're going to do a series with nothing but taskmaster winners

[@Mmmbop0987]

They’ve done one two episode special already, and they’ve filmed another one, but it’s not released yet.

[@RestoreTechnique]

Sarah's was brilliant and cute 😄

[@5ynth3ticNZ]

I dont think I will ever understand why people think it's a good idea to put a scene from later in the video at the very start.

[@Penquinn14]

it's a teaser, you show something thats part of something later on or something that makes you think "how'd they get to that point" so as you watch you're expecting the bit they showed to happen and get the context. In this situation if you're like me you would watch Rob's attempt and think you already knew what he was going to do and then be pleasantly surprised that it wasn't just the flour but two other items as well

[@okkcomputer]

hate it, always skip it

[@5ynth3ticNZ]

@@Penquinn14 or... you've seen that bit when it comes around and it ruins the video as a whole. We've clicked on the video likely because of the catchy title. we want to watch it. That should be enough. This isn't tiktok, instant gratification and 5 second pan flashes aren't needed.

[@eklhaft4531]

Because you get some action right away so you don't click away because the video is boring. And come on it's literally 10 seconds. I knew channels that had over 1 minute long intro which was the same for every single video.

[@ella6547]

I definitely think it should've gone Sara > Paul > Dave > Al > Rob. Didn't like how Rob's looked so poor except for the flour exploding.

[@Ofthe7thSon]

At this stage Rob could get a gig opening for england in the ashes…..

[@simonjohnston3100]

Nah, too conservative in his shot choice....

[@travelwell6049]

Have you seen the slow-mo guys kitten video? That’s what I’d be trying to recreate.

[@aafsterlife9647]

Paul FTW, hundred per cent!

[@gernotg8480]

How is the filming technic called Sarah uses with her robo dance?

[@scoutjonas]

He who hit the flour with a racket, should had added a flame. It would have ignited the flour. The burning flower would have been awsome in slowmo.

[@gordonm6108]

Does anyone else read the comments on Taskmaster in Little Alex Hornes voice?

[@mikemack9701]

NEW YEAR'S TREAT! Gimme some of that sweet, sweet Winkleman! If I can't have a full series of her, I'll take what I can get. (I don't know who any of the others even are. Some rapper and a Love Island dope are two of them, I assume?)

[@Maxtech50]

Tbf im fairly sure none of them are rappers. Dont know about rhe love island thing but u can assume from the looks of them that they arnt from there.

[@stevenomara]

Nah, they're all comedians

[@mikemack9701]

@@stevenomara Nope. One's a radio presenter/host of a talk show. One's a host of a dancing show. One's an Olympic athlete. One's a rapper. One's a Baronness and Member of the House of Lords. The substitute was a comedian. They may have all been funny, but I can tell a joke, too, which doesn't make me a comedian either. If you had been paying attention, the first thing Taskmaster said was he gave comedians the night off. But, hey. Thanks for playing.

[@paulcook7426]

Rob's could have been out of Clockwork Orange.

[@abbyroy8430]

I miss the audience 😥

[@ericmcclelland7151]

I thought Dave's was definitely the best, but Paul's was close But good job by everyone on this task

[@jackhcafc2595]

Rob Beckett is an absolute icon

[@eklhaft4531]

This time I agree. The robot stop motion was awesome 😍

[@ThurstonCyclist]

I think it should have gone: Paul first, then Dave, Sara, Al, and finally, Rob last. One of the poorest-scored tasks ever.

[@kisbie]

Yeah but we all know Greg really likes to drill down into the narrative.

[@jayjayheinz8552]

Nah Al’s was crap

[@Penquinn14]

Eh to me seeing flour and a watermelon get batted out of the air in slow-mo is better than someone hitting a gong especially when you realize that it all would've had to be in one take or they'd be hitting a broken item

[@Cookie-zz2mg]

@@Penquinn14 amazingly two copies of items exist, but i'm with you that his took more skills than hitting a gong

[@yourmum69_420]

[@keepyoureyespeeled]

I assume you mean Al lol
