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.

If the cheerful warmth of 'the bastard's crying, innit?' doesn't encapsulate the Christmas spirit, I don't know what does.

[@dis_joint_ed5167]

Merry Christmas - the bastard's crying, innit Totally gonna become my new festive greeting.

[@DanTheStripe]

The absolute cackle from someone in the audience after Paul delivers *that* line gets me every single time.

[@bar10005]

Pretty sure that's Rob cackling

[@scoooops]

Thats Sarahs laugh

[@RumblyGL]

@@scoooops Given the way she was covering her mouth i'd agree

[@samplename8721]

What’s the time stamp?

[@samplename8721]

Nvm 9:33

[@Sunprism]

"I'm starting to think we shouldn't be laughing at Paul" Genuinely one of the lines that got me hooked on this show, the british really know how to bite

[@kisbie]

Sara sounded genuinely worried for Paul’s grip on sanity. “That’s not a bear, that’s a rabbit.”

[@EEEEEEEE]

E

[@SennaAugustus]

Sara had another classic line, "he's cheated again".

[@NZPIEFACE.]

I love how distressed Russel looked as he saw the snowglobe break in the recording.

[@EEEEEEEE]

E

[@ravennewlyn6386]

I love that they showed the task where people made a snowman with anything but snow, and then immediately followed it up with a demonstration of instant snow.

[@GreenCorgiQueen]

Scoopy's demise is genuinely heartbreaking

[@rachelstechman5959]

I think about him every day

[@EEEEEEEE]

E

[@SennaAugustus]

Gutted that nobody reacted to Alex showing off Scoopy's buttons and eyes.

[@andreaskarlsson5251]

Scoopys cryin' innit?

[@youtube-kit9450]

I love that she genuinely sounded and seemed upset at seeing him melt

[@AshokKumar-fl3uu]

6:22 The absolute joy on Al's face watching Scoopy melt.

[@whynotanyting]

I love it when the contestants help to justify another contestants attempt. Very wholesome, especially when Greg doesn't agree.

[@BethanyLowe8773]

Usually when it will help their own case later

[@robwalsh8975]

Don't forget potato gate

[@sigi9669]

I feel we need a "behind the scenes special" honouring the interns that get to clean up after this lot. From creamy condom explosions to glitter mishaps. Oh, the glitter! I, the audience, thanks you!

[@stephenleggett4243]

Is there a more famous Taskmaster line than "the bastards crying, innit"?

[@iliketrains3495]

"Please don't take it away from me" and "Am I the spider?" are close

[@stephenleggett4243]

@@iliketrains3495 Good shouts.

[@xtrapolis954m]

It’s an absolute casserole down there.

[@elizabethb913]

"How do you make brown? ...blue?"

[@DanTheStripe]

Rosalind's a fucking nightmare!

[@JW_937]

The ice cream snowman actually looks so cute. It looks like a cool dessert idea too. You would probably replace the carrot and raisin with something more sweat but the idea is there

[@Braham_the_Terror]

Raisins aren't sweet enough for you?

[@adrianen4644]

Chocolate chips and either orange fondant or a tangerine slice. If not an orange cookie

[@Kibtea]

I’d do brown m&m eyes and coal and a candy corn nose haha

[@amishrobots]

3:56 how does this man see a whole bag of ice cubes, and not immediately think to throw them in a blender? Snowcones=crushed ice.. literally the first thing I thought of when I saw this task

[@OwningMicrobe]

the way Alex looks at the camera when Al pulls out the bag of ice... perfect. He could have just made snow with it in a blender (or arguably finely chopped ice)

[@kisbie]

I love Alex trying to win extra cred for Asim’s rubber johnny snow globe by pointing out it had BOTH famous Jon Snows inside. 😅

[@rachelle10]

These are such great tasks because they are so simple yet impossible and everyone does something completely different.

[@blackdragoncyrus]

All you need to know from this is, "Bastard's crying, innit?".

[@beemoh]

I remember watching the snowman episode when it aired, and I've seen repeat after repeat on TV, and I've only just noticed in this clip that the tray Sarah builds Scoopy on is upside-down.

[@TroubleToby3040]

Yes... Yes it is. Uhm, could you just have a seat over here, beemoh? I've got a few quick questions I'd like to ask you. Beemoh, do you know what day it is? 🤨

[@secretforreddit]

@@TroubleToby3040 Is this a reference to something I don't understand?

[@eggchomp]

@@secretforreddit i am also confused

[@Xhadp]

Where is draw the biggest circle? That is probably one of the best snow related task and Kerry absolutely slaying it due to her luck of the draw on film timing.

[@CallMeProm]

I was 100% expecting this task.

[@iliketrains3495]

Conversely, Joe Thomas was at a disadvantage on the train station task because his was filmed when there was snow, so his progress was trackable and made it easier for Alex to know where he was, but he still won

[@Paigeofmaces]

I love how Sarah made a scarf for Scoopy.

[@rhas356]

Fingers like lightning, too!

[@LevelUpLeo]

Can we get a super cut of Greg's "Howevers"? Like at 10:58. They are so powerful and you know they're hilarious.

[@M077Y]

That's a great idea!

[@EEEEEEEE]

[@TheKraken5360]

I wish they had a "best of the worst" season where they could bring back Paul Chowdhry.

[@Zefftodeath]

"do you want a raisin?" THAT WAS SCOOPY 😂😂😂😂

[@lollymagic87]

I wonder if microwaving the marshmallow would’ve helped with snowman and I’ve made snowballs out of cornflour and shaving foam before, but did like all the creativity! 😂😊

[@rkah6187]

Yeah, or just adding a bit of water could have also helped, I think

[@EEEEEEEE]

E

[@genericname2747]

marshmallows basically turn into balloons when microwaved

[@Therealalbot]

I've seen "snow" made with baking soda and conditioner also.

[@Sergeantmajormario]

"Bastard's crying, innit?" "Let's have a look at the 'Bastard'?" "Snow bear, innit?" I'm in genuine TEARS!

[@TheMegatuz]

If I had to build a snowman, I would've asked few blenders and a lot ice. Finely blendered ice turns into genuine snow. That's how I've thrown snowballs in summer.

[@squee599]

Me from outside the UK: face meat? Is she legitimately crazy? Me once face meat appears: oh god it's even worse than I imagined!

[@danandi1]

Rob clearly enjoys marshmallows as much as Captain Holt 1:46

[@leeming1317]

13:50 LOL every mom smelling the inside of a jar 🥰

[@-laydeeintrigue-]

"Shall we turn it off and see how the snow falls" is Little Horne snark at it's finest.

[@DrUmbreon]

I'm still shocked Scoopy didn't win

[@tobyb1018]

“Bastards crying innit”

[@gracebonifabulous]

I've fallen in love with that Mashpotatoe man. I felt so much joy looking at that and then how proud of him he was

[@lisahenry20]

For the snowman one, someone mentioned it being April. What does a snowman look like in April? Probably a puddle of water, a carrot, and a wet hat and scarf, so that's what I'd make for that task.

[@vonwux]

One day we'll run out of comedians and have to get Paul Chowdhry back on. I look forward to that day.

[@kisbie]

Start snow. Your time starts now.

[@HeyItsPM]

great timing for this video, good job guys :D

[@whatyousaidbud]

Al's was like film collaboration between Frozen and The Fly.

[@absolutebad3333]

Id be so good at the snowman task, ice and a blender and bam you’ve basically got snow

[@Dustinielson]

@8.30 Dave Gorman sculpts amazing bust of Greg Davies (that's right mash man!)

[@zebraman1154]

"Do you want to do a snow task?~"

[@anniestrooo]

I would have made a snow globe with one of those human hamster balls and the stuff used for display snow in those villages then just run around and bam!

[@dede222292]

NOT THE BLENDER OMG I CAN'T BREATH LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@youngdolo8]

Oof, poor Scoopy and poor Sara. 😂

[@heyysimone]

Ice cream & potato mash snowmen are actually cute

[@kieranbullock02]

Watching this reminds me how DESPERATELY we need another five episodes of the season three cast. That it's only five episodes long is a travesty and one that must be addressed

[@Swoozman]

Was not prepared for the Scoopy Snuff Film

[@leeks1408]

Dave’s mashed potato snowman looks like Johnny Vegas from one series 😆

[@giggiwidit5638]

But ... But ... Russel's Snow globe didn't even snow ... 🌨❄☃❄🌨

[@nolans11]

They don't really show the reactions of the other contestants while the videos are playing any more. They should.

[@iliketrains3495]

I think they stopped after series 7, which is a shame. Although they did cut back to Dara and Fern looking furious in the most recent series after John's sabotage task was revealed.

[@lydiakelly6863]

I didn't realize, till after like the fourth time watching the build a snowman task, that they should've asked for ice and an ice shaver. You could've made a wonderful snowman with shaved ice.

[@jeremysanders5104]

The fact that no one asked for a blender hurts me

[@danielmoraguez3081]

A sitcom where Rob is Greg’s boss and Greg hates him…or one where they are step brothers…

[@josephdavis6506]

I wish Taskmasters caught on in the US like it did in the UK.

[@slake9727]

Based on what I saw of it, no you don't.

[@logikure7306]

The original is usually the best.

[@The.One.True.B]

I wish the UK version caught on here, or that the US version was literally the same show with American comedians. Idk how many times networks will transplant a show, make changes, watch it fail, and then do the same thing with the next great show 😑

[@brianfrey9833]

You mean you wish they made it better in the us than what they did

[@Jawst]

British are better at everything...

[@c.t5136]

One of the best episodes... Please have Liza back again - she is hilarious!

I think I'd have asked for a few bags of ice and a cheese grater. Boom, snow. Or maybe rip open a pack of diapers for the absorbent polymer inside.

When did alex have a top knot lol!

[@jimwall2291]

they had inspiration though, in the snowman task. Couldn't they have requested some of that material too? Or even just snow?

Imo Paul Chowdhry in series 3, but especially in this task, captured what it feels like to be the only person of color surrounded by white people. They are well meaning and nice, sure, but they also just don't "get it". Can't even count the times I felt like that when living in the US. Paul is just brilliant.
