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.

So, wait, did Roisin just let that thing sit there, thinking it was a completely real and solid, heavy boulder for all that time, only to try rolling it and realize how light it actually was? I feel like we missed a pretty hilarious bit of the action there.

"It was pure impulse." No, giving the boulder a test slap would have been pure impulse. Dialing up a courier and thinking for half an hour is pure analysis.

I feel the real winner of that task is the cabbie for posing with a facsimile boulder he'd just driven to Windsor 😂

[@MrR2TheZ]

Is that a boulder..? Or is it a big rock?

[@chessbotter]

Online calculator suggests that getting the boulder to lift off would take over 1000 helium balloons, and reaching a height of 2 mi at least 2000. Extremely disappointed Alex didn't mention this on the show.

Special props to Frank for contributing to the economy by using public transport

funny that alex had a van the entire time and only one person used it

[@celticwolff5429]

Once he knew the weight, I'm surprised Tim didn't just toss it in the river.

[@SummerStormsz]

Imagine someone has a suspicious Boulder and says u have 10 m to get it as far away as possible LMAO id think its a bomb

[@wiedzmapokladowa]

One skill I learned from the Taskmaster is delegating.

It's a real shame that Tim's balloons didn't work. It could have turned it into a real meteor

"What's a boulder? Is it a big rock?" The long game of Frank Skinner and James Acaster. Know what I mean?

"I think I'm what makes Britain great."

[@madelineevans1280]

I would be unbelievably excited to see a party boulder on top of a van drive past me, it would be the highlight of my day. Strange, unusual little moments like that make the best conversation starters.

I imagine a world in which Tim actually got enough balloons levitate the boulder. After it got out of reach he realizes how terrible his idea is. Somewhere, those balloons get high enough to pop, and somewhere a boulder is going to be coming back down.

Josh, "I am what makes Britain great."

[@troydonclarke7863]

Lucky James wasn’t doing this he would’ve gotten colder n colder

Ramesh DID tell the driver about the importance of direction.
