Taskmaster Hotel - Extended Task: Julian, Lucy and Sam | Series 16

We have a saying in Brazilian Portuguese that translates roughly to “the medication for an insane person is an insane person and a half” and I feel this task with this group is the perfect example of it. They called Qrs’ bluff.

[@jorgelenny47]

I feel like we don't talk enough about Mr. Tuvwxyz's 'no, these are your beddings' after sam just offers him the hotel's bed sheets

[@irisblue2332]

"Here's your milk. . . and an owl." Lucy as she caresses Alex's head with affection or maybe to see if he has a fever.

[@turoni314]

Qrs leaving had the energy of someone escaping some crazy hotel at the end of a horror movie.

[@OriginalCaliKitty]

Combining ideas from a couple of the comments here: a horror film with comedians running a Hotel Hell - and throw in an homage to "Psycho."

[@sarahbrown150]

I agree with people calling this one of the best Tasks ever made. Julian's deadpan, "What a terrible day we're having" in a room full of smoke is too relatable, I'm going to hear it in my head the next time my toddler has a meltdown.

[@Dilmahkana]

The way he looked to Julain, the only other sane person there, for reassurance hahahaha

[@barneymetcalfe8896]

@@Dilmahkanathe beauty of the situation is that while Julian is saner than Lucy and Sam, he has such a disdain for Alex that he’s willing to let Lucy and Sam do what they want to him.

Qrs could barely be the demanding guest he was for the Susans because the trio kept forcing services upon him 😂

[@anthonybowman3423]

Services is a very generous interpretation of what they offered.

[@Tao_Tology]

'You will take our service and you will like it.'

[@orangesilver8]

Yeah I love the completely different feeling between the two. With the other two he's being the ridiculous one that is asking for a bed time story and laundry and a spa all in 30 minutes. In this one he almost seems like the normal one who's disturbed by the staff suggesting things they can do for him.

​@@Tao_Tologyyes. , exactly! One is a about a bad guest the other a bad hotel.

I love how there’s this brief moment of promise where Sam hands Qrs the complimentary feather. It looks like they might end up being quite nice to him. And then it all goes south really really quickly…

[@CeeDeeBC]

I thought the opposite, that the presentation of a random feather threw Alex/Qrs, and it was the foreshadowing of all the chaos to come😭😂🤣

[@barneymetcalfe8896]

I think throughout they’re trying to be nice to him, they just don’t know how.

[@kida4313]

Oh the absolute carnage. Lucy tooting her horn, Sam just being in Alex's room.. fantastic

[@sfshinz]

And of course, Julian wouldn’t recognize a washing machine if one bit him in the ass (OK, arse).

[@Leila-jc4ef]

Lucy: Is he ready for his spa treatment? Sam (head through the window): YOU NEED TREATMENT 4:47 😂😂😂

[@slyasleep]

The final shot of the three of them seeing him off, it really looks like a classic still fron a horror movie, especially with Lucy‘s apron and her slight hunch.

[@charliclement4345]

“Are you a white collar criminal” had big “are you a child of divorce” energy

[@blinddog1212]

7:59 - This moment is not getting enough love: Lucy running behind Qrs only to teleport past him and be at the front desk before him (she likely pushed him out of the way while running over). "Helloooooo." 🤣

[@Hutki00]

7:27 That cut is amazing 😂 Julian had enough of Alex and Qrs 💀😂

[@TheYorkRose]

"What a c***" is such a great line to throw into the middle of this waking nightmare, but the edit elevates it so much 😂

The original cut in the show had me crying I was laughing so hard, but this longer cut is even more amazing; it’s like watching aliens pretending to run a hotel 😂

[@robopecha]

oh that describes it best. its like they never actually were in a hotel before!

[@ciaraquick]

I can’t believe how much they had to cut out, this was hilarious! The whole bit of Lucy painting his toes and rubbing his legs?? They couldn’t hold onto that

[@hmn15]

Alex asking Lucy to please get out of his bed & later hightailing out of the hotel with the 3 watching him are some of my favourite moments here.

[@lavraieAlice]

[@Tintenklexs]

Lucy is being such a MOM in this one: "Qrs, you haven't got time for a bedtime story, if you leave in 3 minutes!". I think she also just gets into bed with him for bedtime stories, because that's what moms do. Inapproriate touching and commenting on Alex body, "You really have to do your treatment now!"

[@Tao_Tology]

Well......she is french.

[@marianne5055]

Caressing his face, kissing his knees

[@Miply]

I wish they'd let Sam provide a view for Alex. I'd love to know what he had in mind

[@hafsaz4513]

The crazy thing is that I initially had the same thought that they would need to provide him with a view when watching the Sues complete the task 😅

[@Retired_Detective51]

Those subtle 2 pushes at the end was Julian’s funniest moment of the series. 8:40

[@delightfulmochas]

I think it’s on par with Julian ignoring Alex and driving off in the previous episode, especially with the frantic whistling in the background

[@kilon1]

This task has so much potential for a spin off series. Not too long because it could wear thin, but a good hour per group of owners could work for a series or two.

[@LC-le9ew]

If it doesn’t get at least one of them hired for a sitcom, justice will not be done.

[@JayJay-17]

I love how there are multiple moments where you can see Alex get visibly upset 🤣

[@kristenbooks]

in a task full of absolutely hilarious moments, my favorite remains Sam hiding in the caravan & waiting for Qrs' return just to shout "hi!" and terrify him. quite literally choking on my laughter every time.

[@StrongBalloonChris]

Qrs: *I'm going to be as annoying as possible LOL* Trio: *We're about to end this man's whole career*

[@ym10up]

I appreciate the clever editing at 7:27 where Julian clearly said "what a c#$*t" as Lucy started playing the French horn so the edit uses the sound of the horn to mask the last word of Julian's comment

[@kristenbooks]

We have not given enough attention to Alex getting dragged to the fire assembly point and walking and tripping over himself like a newborn foal with gangly lil legs he can't quite use yet. Plus the towel falling off, there was something very precious and goofy about the whole thing

[@faaa999]

Lucy needs to be like the 3rd cohost of this show. Just watching her make Alex utterly exasperated and seeing Greg try to walk through the minefield that is her mind is thrilling by itself 😂😂😂

[@NikELbErGErBergel]

Lucy is an agent of chaos i love her so much

[@CanuckJim]

It really seemed like she turned her superpower up to 11 to deal with Qrs' attitude.

[@HerHollyness]

This task is so brilliant. I don’t think Alex even got the chance to ask for all the things he did with the Sues because this mad bunch just kept forcing him to do things! So good.

[@NoGoodNik1]
