Just released on the channel: Rhod challenges James and Sian to a Panda Quiz where James talks back to his new Taskmaster

[@chrisworthman3191]

Did you guys stop doing the podcast?

[@DanGolag]

It's funny seeing how obvious it is that Rhod never watched the show while James has clearly watched their season multiple times.

[@elftax]

Rhod is best friends with Greg, it’s impossible that he had never watched it before.

[@TheBumblingMum]

@@elftax I don't watch or listen to things my friends do. They've been friends since a very young age. Greg has been on TV for many years, and doing stand up for even longer. Rhod probably hasn't seen everything he's done and vice versa.

[@BeavzMC]

@@TheBumblingMum i'm pretty sure in one of rhods old t.v shows he's stated he doesn't really watch tele in general despite been on it, so its highly believable he has barely seen anything gregs in, they've performed stand up together, they've been on tv together they've experienced their jobs together so why need to watch what the other person does, i get it.

His name is Little Alex Horne. He’s only 6 foot 2.

[@rays5163]

yes he truly works in the shadows as the secret master

[@bobhope5773]

[@bobhope5773]

@@rays5163 Nothing secret about it, the show was devised and created by Alex Horne and Alex chose Greg to host it, as Alex prefers to be a side kick.

[@kittycattt93]

Rhod on Taskmaster was just ADHD fuelled the whole time. James's anger at the extension task is a clip I rewatch all the time 😂😂

[@MitchOLego]

See now it's funny, because I always felt like the brilliance of Rhod on Taskmaster was most highlighted by the Extension team task ... unlike everyone else, who usually immediately panics, he spends a few seconds at the start of every task just standing still, thinking about it, and then come up with his brilliant bizareness. Rhod and James are two of my favorite TM contestants of all time; both separately and as nemeses.

[@KyuubiSam]

As someone with ADHD I know full well looking at something that is of utter importance and just going blank and ignoring all of it except some random useless thing I was thinking about, but still thinking "oh this is so great, everyone is going to love me and I'll be the hero", but then everyone getting mad at me for being an idiot. Right in the feels.

[@emmad4308]

@@KyuubiSam literally it's like "ohohoho I am SO genius" and then you do the thing, and it is less genius than you originally thought. Edit I also have ADHD I forgot to disclose that

[@klaythoring1326]

That outside the box thinking though - it snagged him the best solution!

[@veryvarley6706]

The arguments between Rhod and James made season 7 of Taskmaster the best. Add to that, Greg purposely stirring things up and Jess acting as peacekeeper and it was a recipe for greatness/stupidity/madness.

[@slartybartfast4213]

gotta include Phil Wang's wang, and Kerri Godleyman's 'bosh!'

[@conallmclaughlin4545]

Definitely the ultimate season. I'd love to see a rematch

[@Wabajak13]

I'm pretty sure Jess is an axe murderer though....

[@sofiaguerrero0969]

I loved Jess! She was a nice addition to that chaotic mess 😂 and I’ve read of people not liking Kerry but her competitiveness made the show more fun.

[@alasdairduncan3]

​@@sofiaguerrero0969 was never a big fan of Kerry on the show. She was one of a few that wasn't all that funny and just did the tasks. The fact she scored very highly despite all that annoyed me a little as it made it less likely I'd see James or Jess back for Champion of Champions.

[@bleachedbonez]

The detail of Alex nodding at Jessica to break the prize makes that entire bit so much better.

[@TheoTheCoolest]

I wish we could see that uncut bit 😭

[@msmilder25]

I recently saw a compilation of all of James' non-responsive reactions to Alex's greetings...so many of them, so funny. The glances James gave Alex EVERY time he attempted to greet him...priceless.

[@janeeyre1990]

It's unfortunate for us deaf/hard-of-hearing people that hearing people take it so personally when you "ignore" their verbal greeting. I know James did it intentionally, but I do it unintentionally all the time, when hearing people talk at the back of my head and I don't hear them. I bring it up because it has real world consequences (D/HH people in the US disproportionately affected by police violence because we don't respond to verbal commands).

[@exessex3522]

Did Acaster ever explain that?

[@baalrog887]

I loved that his response was "it wasn't part of the task"

[@antster1983]

@@baalrog887 He did tweet "Bye, Alex!" after the series had ended.

@@janeeyre1990 I'm autistic so I have auditory processing issues and I agree with you.

[@PortsTM]

Conversations about contestants time on Taskmaster a few years after they were on it is always great to listen to

[@georgercop]

One of my favourites was an episode of Room 101 where Frank Skinner and Romesh Ranganathan talked about that time Romesh put his actual wedding ring up as a prize, Josh Widdecombe won the episode, and subsequently Romesh's wedding ring. Romesh approached Josh after the show like "That was just for the telly right, could I get that back?", Josh responds with "I think you'll find I'm perfectly entitled to keep it" xD

[@softreyna]

@@allaussietraveller9879 Iirc, they're friends outside the show, and he did give the ring back...eventually.

[@cameronross8812]

Honestly this to me just speaks of Alex's confidence at what he can get the production team to do. That? Ya, they'll be able to unsmash that, sure.

[@glendarjj3991]

Alex Horne: other people's presents might get smashed, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make

[@AarOnCoasters]

If Taskmaster ever gets cancelled, they have hundreds of hours of outtakes and edits. We would all watch every minute.

[@KatieCatWalker]

They should release it all anyway because it would just make it more better than it already is.

[@Cryvern]

Knowing Alex gave the nod like a villain mastermind is hilarious

[@liddad]

I love Rhod's explanation of why he closed the door. As another ADHDer I relate to it so much which makes the explanation so much funnier.

[@joshuamartin7756]

ADHD: blind to half of everything, can't stop noticing the other half.

@@joshuamartin7756 Isn't that the truth!

[@maxsilbert]

@@joshuamartin7756 This is so accurate I'm getting goosebumps

[@chenzenzo]

Rhod seemed like a genuine psycho killer when he tied up Alex. He was so casual about making the restraints tighter, then went off to make some lunch. I laughed soooooooo hard. ❤️

[@DevinGates]

He did think to ask if Alex wanted something, at least :D That could also be seen as rubbing it in. "You're dead stuck there, mate. Lunch will be gone by the time you're out, so shall I bring it over?"

[@42grath]

Alex as the Sith Lord behind everyone just like "Do It" is so on brand for Taskmaster XD

[@damightyshabba439]

I tell you what - they are describing a LOT of behind the scenes moments I would pay to see.... I'd watch a whole season of Taskmaster outtakes and cockups. Bickering, alliance making... I mean the same goes for all the other shows these guys are on - BUT - in particular TM. If anyone can get the B roll footage that was not shown - lets see it. I think there is a huge market for people getting access to off-camera moments on pretty much any popular show. Hell they could call it Dave 3.0 and only run B-clips... If you're a fan of the show you'll lap it up.

[@micahc2300]

honestly i'd love to see a full unedited episode with everything left in, even if its hours long i'd watch it all

[@damightyshabba439]

@@micahc2300 I know they have now gone back to the "old" format but did you watch the James Corden show during the pandemic when basically the crew were the audience for months? It's brilliant. The first few you're like "Hmmm, Nah".... 6 episodes later you can't wait to find out what Hagar did last weekend..... A much better format than just a bunch of happy clappers. I think film / TV companies need to realise that their audience has matured - we actually WANT the bad recordings - yes by all means release the A roll stuff first, but a week later follow up with the B roll. As fans of pretty much ANY show.... we want it.

[@DreamsAreMakeBelieve]

A whole Dave channel full of outtakes is genius

[@Nagarath16]

I would pay extra for Taskmaster behind the scene stuff as a DVD or other thing that I could order into Finland.

[@damightyshabba439]

@@Nagarath16 I'm sure you have already thought of it but just in case - may I suggest a VPN? I pay £2.33 per month and can basically access anything, with a little messing about. Don't bother with the free ones - you only get about 200Mb per month or something stupid (not even a full TV episode). Hopefully Gregg, Alex and the others will read these comments and do something about releasing the BTS footage - there's clearly a demand for it. Anything that they decided was too dodgy to broadcast with James Acaster in I definitely want to see. And something tells me there was a LOT of Sally Phillips footage we never saw. If we all keep talking about it online, hopefully they will do something.

[@superredpatek]

Basically confirms Alex Horne really is OG Squid Game

[@ChrissiTee]

Baddiel was right

[@jobansand]

[@NikkiDoesStufff]

@@t.c.4321 bit rude dude. I’m American. I watch a lot of British tv shows and it’s beyond clear (at least to me) that Alex is the mastermind. He’s a very very smart man, didn’t he go to one of the best universities in England? And he leads the Horne section which is very successful. He plays his part perfectly and if I recall correctly it was not only his idea to make the show but to specifically have Greg host rather than him. There is almost nothing that man won’t do for the sake of comedy and I for one applaud him for it. I’m sure those less familiar with British tv might mistake him for the silly assistant he portrays but to call us all dumb is a bit much.

Rhod and James' rivalry in season 7 is one of the many reasons why that season is hands-down the best of the entire show

[@janeeyre1990]

James keep saying, "You SAW the building materials." As someone who also has ADHD, I assumed that Rhod didn't even really see the building materials in the garage. If you're hyperfocused on one crazy scheme, your brain isn't going to pay attention to things irrelevant to that scheme. Maria from the Norway Taskmaster is similar.

[@henrykramer365]

Yeah I found it odd that James couldn't believe that, and figured he must be playing up his disbelief for laughs...then realized not everyone has ADHD 😅

I really enjoyed the arguments between Rhod and James in series 7. There are certain other arguments in other series where I felt uncomfortable but the ones in series 7 never felt like that to me and it's fun to see them laughing about them here.

[@panic_thunder]

The extension task playback was one of the funniest moments on Taskmaster. The series built up the tension to the perfect level. Absolutely loved that series along with 4 and 9.

[@kylenetherwood8734]

The extension building is my favourite task in taskmaster, and now I know that Rhod wasn't intentionally sabotaging James and Phil, he has become my favourite contestant. Also the bean thing was because he measured a bean with an unusual length, which would have been resolved by finding the mean (average) length of multiple beans in the tin which was the namesake of the episode.

[@youmgsandwiche]

Yeah, it wasn’t so much that he was judged unfavorably because of a technicality, but that his numbers ballooned because he started with an unusually sized bean

[@PawsitivelyQuestionable]

He had to find the mean bean

[@iwong3357]

Rhod was just surprised by the acceptance because he was essentially the villain of the series. So much was (in jest, of course) mean-spirited or over-the-line like how he got Alex's pants off in almost one task each episode or how he snuck into Greg Davies' home to film him while he was sleeping for a prize task. But the audience and probably the general public looks pretty kindly on a little light bondage, especially if Alex is the one being tied up, and the ingenuity of the work-around clinched the positive reaction.

[@njr582]

Finally an indication of what actually happens to the stuff contestants bring on for the prize task - it sure seems that the winner doesn't gain full possession!

[@lutilda]

Especially in the early seasons when you have things like wedding rings being put up!

[@fwabcaf]

I love listening to past contestants reminisce. Also the extra bits is wonderful. I think I'd gladly work for free on Taskmaster just to be able to see everything that happens. Sidenote: Happy Birthday to whom it may apply.

really great to see/hear this chat, one of the best series of Taskmaster. Thank you.

[@janeeyre1990]

Really great to see the video, see the auto-generated closed captions, and somewhat hear the audio as a hard-of-hearing fan with ADHD. I don't know if our boi Rhod is this way with his ADHD, but a lot of neurodivergent (ND) people need audio and visual stimuli combined to process and understand the information. Audio plus video plus captions, not just audio in isolation like the radio or a video with audio but no captions. Not to mention that non-native English speakers / English language learners often need captions, especially if they're not familiar with particular accents or dialects of English. Communicating information via all sensory modalities available makes it accessible to as many people as possible.

[@janeeyre1990]

So a big thank you from me too! 🤟🤟🤟

[@emmad4308]

@@DjurslandsEfterskole no problemo!! Glad to have been helpful!! I only recently learnt about it myself (definitely experienced it personally with the joys of the ✨ menstrual cycle✨); I'd recommend using search terms like ADHD menstrual cycle, ADHD and menopause etc. For a starting point if you want to find out more information. Unfortunately, it's not an area that a ton of research has been done in, but it's beginning to pick up (found one journal article from last year for example). Long story short, dopamine is involved as always and progesterone I believe is as well. Good luck to yourself as well, and my support to your mother because ADHD is hard enough to manage without hormonal changes and fluctuations, and going through that with no idea of what is happening sounds horrific.

Fun fact! You know how dopamine deficiency cause most symptoms in ADHD? Well, it's also a key part of dementia. And there have been studies that have shown that ADHDers are more likely to get dementia, so. that's stressful

This is brilliant and so hilarious too. Well worth the listen when they talk Taskmaster as Rhod and James were amazing and made the tasks so enjoyable to watch

[@mindexplode5599]

How have I just found this? Such a great chat.

I'm probably in the minority, but I really liked Rhod when he hosted Buzzcocks. I was sad that it was the last series ever, but the show had run it's course.

[@katiewookie2498]

Its still running and now hosted by Greg Davies!

[@DanGolag]

I'm totally with you. As sharp as Amstell was, by the the end of his run I thought the show had become too mean spirited and frankly predictable. Rhod made it more engaging for me again.

[@ellyelisabeth2783]

Still running!

@@Phyracy what a refreshing change that made to my usual online interactions 🤣 so cheers yourself! 🍻

[@khinzakhan66]

James actually is a fan of the show. You can tell by the way he talks!

[@johnsteward4573]

Brilliant insights of off-camera action.

[@gingerwarrior1395]

I was in the audience for the candle holder ornament chaos episode and I've always wondered what happened to it!!!!

[@marieeszenyi332]

Well this is amazing. Glad I just found it! ❤🎉 loving the statue backstory.

Love some bts scoop! I LOVED the cast on that particular series, no dull moments. Saw a clip of James & Rhod and that’s how I got into watching Taskmaster.
