Paul Sinha's OUTSTANDING Displays Shock Greg Davies | Taskmaster

[@JLF201]

I love Paul's look. It's very "Well, I've had my morning coffee, I guess I'll go wander down to the Taskmaster house and see what's up."

[@doubleemp8084]

Taskmaster helped Paul find out he had Parkinson's. After hearing Paul on Richard Herring's podcast, it turns out some medics saw him on Taskmasker and contacted him as he showed signs of early-onset Parkinson's.

Didn't he also have a shoulder operation before TM?

[@CS-pi5oc]

Oh, interesting. All I noted was his body movement with rather stiff necked, his movements were slow, & the eyes didn’t return to center as one would expect as he looked at a person. I wish him well.

[@difoolgc5211]

Ohh, I thought he was diagnosed between, the recordings ended and the broadcast, I think he announced it when the series ended.

[@difoolgc5211]

Ok, decided to look it up, it was during the broadcast he was diagnosed ( sinhahablog.wordpress.com/2019/06/ ), and here is a blog post in 2020 with his reasoning going to the doctors ( sinhahablog.wordpress.com/2020/05/28/a-dogged-half-century/ ), neither mentions any outside input to seek help.

Not 100% true

surprised Alex survived Julian's "oh you've got a friend?"

[@mbrackeva]

So smooth, so gentle and friendly, and yet so sharp! Julian's skill...

Much better than Paul's other ball task where he slowly bumps a single ping pong ball with a basketball when he had options to cut the basketball or carry two on balls of string 😅

[@cazzabojangles]

Or the one where he's wandering around the garden with a tray and repeatedly getting hit in the groin

[@lindsayhaugen7660]

Is Paul shedding a tear in the studio portion of the last task shown?

[@richardjames7905]

It could be argued that inadvertently touching a ball before reading Your Time Starts Now does not compel you to use it as the first ball touched before the task actually started.

[@PixlPlayer]

It could be argued, but that’s not how taskmaster really does things

[@richardjames7905]

@@PixlPlayer Does that indicate that the taskmaster’s judgment can sometimes be flawed? If this is the case I am happy he is not a judge in a court because he would not recognise that he has been blindsided when making ethical decisions. However I concede that his decisions can be random and that his flawed ruling is law.

[@TomTKK]

​@PixlPlayer That's exactly how it is, players often find loopholes and are awarded for it.

[@TomTKK]

​@richardjames7905 Yes, but at the end of the day, it's whatever the taskmaster decides. It's a gameshow where there is no correct answer. The aim of the show is to impress the taskmaster by completing his challenges any way possible. If you think that's too vague, that's the point.

Where can I buy a Romesh Ranganathan teleportation portal? And do they sell it in Nish Kumar model as well?
