[@robertbrookes2000]

FYI for non Brits: Richard Osman isn't a comedian but is actually a host on a quiz show called Pointless (where contestants have to guess answers that the fewest people out of 100 guessed) More recently he's got another sore call Richard Osman's House of Games, where celebs have to try and score points on various quiz like questions. He's also published a murder mystery novel. And Susie Dent is a lexicographer on a show called Countdown (a spelling and maths show). She covers the longest words that can be made from the letters round, and also has a little segment about the history of certain words and phrases. There was a comedy panel show called 8 out of 10 cats, which featured John Richardson, which later merged with Countdown (an unusual but successful combination) and Joe Wilkinson appeared on it, mainly as comic relief with the joke that he's obsessed with Susie. That's why he was so 'familiar' with her.

[@SixteenJacobsCreams]

The Susie thing was Nick Helm, not Joe but otherwise yeah.

[@viruneeviravong2581]

I love watching you enjoy these! Funny you say about them being comedians though.. there's an official Taskmaster podcast where one of the contestants in a later series (a comedian) watches back through all the episodes with random other past contestants and they discuss the episode and their own experiences and I remember one episode they discussed whether they felt as comedians they should try and bring a bit of comedy value to the show but in reality they all felt like the show format itself WAS the comedy and that in reality the comedians (and contestants) felt that they could pretty much be themselves and the nature of the tasks lent itself to comedic moments anyway.

Fun fact. Most of the Germanic languages are the same. For example if you can speak 'old English' you can basically make your way around Germany, Norway, Denmark etc. The words are not perfect but it will just sound like you are speaking in a weird accent. And should get you through most tourist questions. There's a really good documentry about it. Where a guy learns 'old English' and then has to make his way around those countries only using what he learnt. It's amazing just how far and what they understood.
