only Alex can say "a bag of yellow" like that's normal

[@NestorCustodio]

Not just "a bag of yellow", but "MY bag of yellow". I love that he asserts ownership, lest some ne'er-do-well claim it's actually theirs. It really adds to the silliness.

[@pinkvulpineproductions3463]

He did the same thing with the milk. He corrected Andy when he just called it milk 😂

Rosie is a fucking legend "you don't need to tell me that!" 😅😅 "the least I could do do was rob him!" I've loved every bit with her.

[@billyeveryteen7328]

For me, what clinched it was making a big show of saying "I mean it!" directly into her lav mic.

[@logic.and.reasoning]

Legend ❤😂 She a typical Aussie at 10pm on a Saturday night. 😅

[@ThePhreedomPhighter]

I feel like Rosie would have high fived Alex after robbing the sound guy regardless of whether the task demanded it or not.

[@pinkvulpineproductions3463]

This quickly became one of my favorite tasks. So many call backs. A subtle hints that were just totally missed by the constants. And Alex doing a very Alex bit.

[@Taolan8472]

the first time seeing it i did not realize he was slowly turning arpund manually. i have to imagine he did intend to use the turntable, but it was broken, and so he just said "Ah. I have a backup plan."

I missed it when it was broadcast but five of the pockets Rosie incorrectly picked were her own. The perils of wearing that particular outfit.

Rosie just straight up robbed one of them. XD

[@wilbo_baggins]

She really is the definition of chaos.

[@Nilguiri]

​@@wilbo_baggins She is on the fine line between humorous chaos and just being annoying. EDIT: She really grew on me in the latest episode! She's witty and uninhibited: S18E05, 'Big stupid things. That was a great episode!

Emma doing the pose of the badass cupid as a celebration is one of the cutest things I've ever seen on this show

[@theplasmawolf]

I like how every pocket had some reference to earlier Taskmaster seasons and tasks. Or a bunch of rockets :)

[@MysteriousKammm]

All the objects are clues (red hearing, dont trust the people who micked you, put a rocket in your pocket, etc.). Very clever

[@NoGoodNik1]

Given her happy demeanor, I thought Rosie would be like this series' Mel, but it's becoming increasingly clear she's this series' Rhod Gilbert.😂

[@pinkvulpineproductions3463]

I think she’s Rhod-Mel the world has been waiting for.

[@jorgewilliam7103]

She reminds me of Sally Phillips

[@princessthyemis]

Oooo true

[@Tribolumins]

The only suitable response to picking out Chinese five spice is to say "that's the spice for me!" 😃

[@protocol6]

Should have brought Aisling in to give an "oh, Alex" for him yet again blatantly engineering a situation where people have to feel him up.

[@phonotical]

Could afford a jacket with 3 million pockets, but no turntable 😂

[@pclouds]

He wanted 3 million and one pockets but ran out of budget. Turntable is of course out of question.

[@ddg3210]

A jacket with a million pockets can generate a lot of money.

[@karenheyou9946]

Out of 18 seasons, plus a handful of the UK and Australia versions, this is my absolute favorite task, thus far.

[@keskt]

“You don’t need to tell me that- they’re all pieces of shit!” 😂

[@Daniel-yy5tx]

Emma truly is reaching incredible highs and lows. Compare this to the 100 cans task, and it's like night and day.

[@StarmanStarman]

I get that the compass with their names mean 'the direction is to yourself' but what does the rock with a Y on it means?

[@Nalehw]

There was also a rock with a U, right? So I think if they found a few more rocks it would spell out a clue

[@michaelpiper8198]

9:11 Wait was Andy cheated out of this one…like I know the comments they made but at the timestamp he actually checks his clothes FOR POCKETS but wasn’t even able to find ANY. I’ve worn a getup like that and it had NO pockets and ONLY folds that didn’t exactly hold anything. Actually thinking further they took clothes and put it inside for the contestants to put on themselves which is what tipped the one girl off in the first place when she was putting things back on…really don’t see them taking his sweater or pants to hide the locket in a fold and it not be extremely obvious and uncomfortable…just really really not the type of wear for this one 😂

[@chrisjohn95]

This is gonna be a little incensensitive to say. But this is the only series i watch on my phone. So when Rosie speaks I can understand her easily by easily changing the speed of the video. As someone whose english is not my first language

9:20 The only thing Emma did wrong was not wearing hot dog outfit 🙃

[@dAfoodie101]

right but would that costume have pockets 😂

[@ryanschwartz4959]

Okay, so the locket was planted by wardrobe into four of the contestants' coat pockets, but... I don't know how that would've worked for Andy, as I don't think his jumper has pockets. Did wardrobe end up asking for his trousers?

[@davidyoung5114]

My guess would be they have a 'personal space' for each contestant on-site, where they can change into their 'costume' before starting a task. That would be where a member of the costume department could slip the item in!

[@ryanschwartz4959]

@@davidyoung5114 Gotcha. Though I also wonder if the hot dog costume has any pockets for the locket to go in, in case a contestant decided to wear it for this task

[@robinmabbott7334]

[@Taolan8472]

there was a deliberate malice to Rosie's "May I touch you?" that has nothing to do with her cerebral palsy. And it is *flipping beautiful* But yes, it is about consent.

[@princessthyemis]

Yeah!! It was hilarious! Love how she brought it around to the very real topic of consent and everyone was like, "Heck yeah!" 🎉😊

[@billyeveryteen7328]

Emma miming the "Deal With It" glasses was adorable.

[@hobbybugs1286]

[@lordcola-3324]

Can you please provide subtitles for when Rosie is speaking? English isn't my first language and I can not understand a single word she is saying. The auto generated subtitles seem to be having a hard time with her speech as well.

[@eggchomp]

If you hold down the screen while she speaks it goes to 2x speed and it’s a little easier to understand her then

[@billyeveryteen7328]

English is my first language, but I'm American, and I also often have a hard time understanding her because of the combination of her accent and speech disorder. Although, to be fair to Rosie Jones, I have just as hard a time understanding Glaswegians, which I'm sure Rosie would make a joke about being an even bigger disability.

[@christaincarvalho]

I'm pretty sure the full episode has not-auto-generated subtitles, you can click on the little gear and select them there.

[@ulrichenevoldsen8371]

Consent is implied in the task, otherwise it would be somewhat difficult 😅

[@djghikf4247]

Why? It's not on Alex, so touching him is not neccesary, as demonstrated by Emma.

[@ulrichenevoldsen8371]

@@djghikf4247 yes that's obvious when the task is over. Hindsight is a brilliant thing

[@Statsy10]

I agree consent was implied in the task. The problematic thing here is how Greg thought it was creepy that she asked for consent.

[@hopperelec]

Even hairdressers ask for consent to touch you, even though touching you is “implied” by you askig them to cut or style your hair. Consent needs to be explicit, not impled.

[@ulrichenevoldsen8371]

@@hopperelec that has never happened to me. You are grasping

[@kalahatze]

I hope this isn't rude, and I don't mean to insult, but... I can't understand a single thing Rosie is saying. I understand she has a condition, and I'm not trying to judge her for it, but no matter how much I rewind and rewatch, I just can't understand anything she says. I myself have a few mental issues (though obviously not nearly as impactful ones as she has), and my own issues might be contributing to me not being able to understand her, since everyone else seems to be able to understand her fine. If someone could help give a translation or something, it'd be appreciated.

[@dylanlambert8508]

use closed captions

[@kalahatze]

@dylanlambert8508 The auto generated captions are worse than what I can understand just from interferences, and nobody has added any manual captions.

[@mattkennedy9308]

Yeah, it's good they're giving Rosie a chance as she's geuinely funny... but they definitely need more language/caption support to do it properly.

[@dylanlambert8508]

@kalahatze ah, that's not good. Im in NZ using TVNZ+, and that appears to be showing captioms ok correctly (or at least I thought it was lol).

[@rosieeeeeeeeeeeee]

you’re not alone, don’t worry, i’ve seen a lot of comments here say the same the full episodes should have clear captions to help if you have access to those (i watch with the channel 4 tv app), though i’ve also heard people mention that speeding up the footage by holding the screen on the video makes her easier to understand

[@barnaclefelching4079]

Love that they never told Andy where the locket was and that he never even asked. Now I've always accepted that Andy was an intelligent person, I'm now reframing his intelligence as being very deep but extremely narrow. Not a crit but I do think he could be in every remaining season of TM and not quite get the hang of it whilst understanding TM intricately

[@rufusdrumknottvgc]

Rosie is so sharp, she's been really impressive in some of these tasks that involves Alex's trickery!

[@johndenverfan]

[@DarkerStarSword]

Rosie's behaviour here is frankly extremely fucked up. Part of me hopes that it was actually the production team that instructed her to steal the sound engineers money as a joke and that it was returned afterwards, but even that would be incredibly poor taste.

[@squeakyelbows]

I imagine she returned it

[@KurtMueller]

I can't believe that none of Taskmaster's producers, writers, and hosts knew beforehand about asking for consent before touching somebody.

[@junbh2]

What makes you think that? They didn't sneak up and put something in anyone's pocket. They made up an excuse to ask for their coat or to ask to adjust a microphone, which the person agreed to.

[@hopperelec]

I think they were referring to Rosie asking “May I touch you?” which is a perfectly normal thing to ask, but some people find it creepy for some reason

[@callum9999]

​@@hopperelec "For some reason"!? The delivery followed by that grin staring into Alex's eyes is the definition of creepy! The act of asking for consent itself is obviously the very opposite of creepy. Though if Kurt is trying to imply that everyone should have been asking consent, implied consent is very clearly sufficient for this scenario.

[@hopperelec]

@@callum9999 But that’s just her normal demeaner. She’s very smiley and looks people in the eyes a lot, but it’s never usually referred to as creepy and it would be rude to do so. So it’s clearly the asking for consent that people are referring to as creepy. There are even people in the comments implying the question was very weird/unnecessary

[@hopperelec]

@@callum9999 Also, I’m not saying that everyone should have asked for it, because I do understand that it can be implied. I don’t think that’s what Kurt was saying either. But really, it is much better for it to be explicit rather than just impled.

[@NickHoad]

This is one of those tasks where the “Alex-ing” takes attention away from the actual game and just comes off as being annoying for the sake of it imo. They’re few and far between but they do show up from time to time
