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.

"Well if that was love, turns out I've not been in love before" has got to be one of my favorite Taskmaster quotes

[@gingerinajacket8519]

I mean, on TM, is there more of a way to show your respect and affection for Greg than to torture Alex Horne?

[@Jennyfisch]

That shot of Liza running away cackling will never not make me laugh

[@TheColourfulSidetwitch]

It’s iconic

[@Pleochism]

The breathless glee with which Ed Gamble greets his own serenade is beautiful.

[@kisbie]

And also how Greg seems puzzled by his own brain coming up with spider 🕷 as a ‘huggy’ creature, but sticking with it anyway.

[@manupkp]

The cake sitting never gets old. One of the rare pieces of television history that gets me laughing out loud every time. And it's been a dozen already.

[@Joliie]

Lisa's reaction is priceless...

[@jennatodd4664]

“There’s something wrong with that mirror,” is probably one of the stupidest jokes I’ve ever heard but I’ll be damned if I don’t laugh every time

[@benglaser1345]

It really speaks to Tim's abilities as a comedian that he was able to walk in and come up with that, the go back to it later with "not just pay lip service to this lovely man" and fumble with his hat by accident

[@WxB2001]

I love Tim because they're the little silly jokes that I would do. I just love that humour

[@idde4345]

Somebody once pointed out that Morgana was a Siren, irresistibly luring the hapless sailor into marriage. Because of its brilliance I'd like to point that out again.

[@youtube-kit9450]

I was familiar with the myth, and it was obvious Morgana was aswell. I don't even fault Alex or Greg or the others for not knowing it (since mostly the myth also is like luring the sailor in to kill them or something, not marry them), but I'm honestly baffled Morgana didn't point out the myth to defend her proposal.

[@DIABStudios]

Dude Guz's proposal was so good the disarming intention into the build up in tension into the execution of the pop culture reference Amazing! 23:53

[@StonetheDestroyer42]

His eyes getting wide just as he shifted gears was brilliant.

[@emilymarley4505]

Haven't seen the episode so it caught me off guard but it was brilliant. Definitely one of the best clips in this video ((after the cake)).

[@Saraseeksthompson0211]

Ed gamble’s song to himself was the absolute best. And Alex looked so happy with the sweet proposals. So funny

[@Tahkaullus01]

I'm really shocked so many took the "Propose to Alex" task the romantic way and didn't leap at the chance to do what Guz Khan did and make Alex "an offer he can't refuse."

[@maxdecphoenix]

the hebrew marriage arch probably had something to do with it.

[@TheBlackDemon1996]

I like how abrupt the transition was from Asim toying around with the keyboard's default beats to one of the best love raps I've ever heard.

[@elderflower2133]

Victoria talking about her husband after her proposal task genuinely is the most romantic moment in Taskmaster history.

[@Eliza-ig9kz]

This is the comment I've been looking for Thank you

[@Saraseeksthompson0211]

They’re so adorable. I love Victoria

[@badmaniak]

You think that it was romantic? It was the most bizzare and uncool think what she could say. :(

[@hunterra217]

I think the fact that the person she's so besotted by is David Mitchell. He must be the MOST charismatic man to ever exist 😂😂

[@INeedANewHandle]

If you've read David's book on how smitten by her he was, this moment by victoria becomes even more incredible. Luckiest couple alive.

[@WxB2001]

Victoria during that marriage task was super sweet. I was going "ahhhhhhhh" throughout the whole bit of her talking about how in love she is with David. Just super sweet.

[@MegCazalet]

I was proposed to at PF Chang’s. Yes our meal was comped. And on several anniversaries of that proposal after. My husband HATES when I tell people about the PF Chang’s marriage proposal because he felt he should’ve done much better. He just shyly put the ring box on the table, which I immediately recognized because it was my late grandmother’s. He was so freakin nervous. I adore him.

[@rebekahmontesdeoca565]

That's super cute

[@theblackvalkyrie69]

This is absolutely adorable and so memorable! 🥹 The fact that he feels you deserve better shows he wants to give you the world. And the fact that you’re sharing it here shows how much you appreciate him. I wish you both a long and happy marriage with lots of blessings and more special experiences! 🖤🥰🥹🌹

[@joanneking170]

The husky "I'm moist" makes that rap.

[@Jekubman]

Now I've finally seen what the other contestants did during the cake sitting task. I've been wondering about that for a while now.

[@kisbie]

“But the penmanship...!” is an underrated line. Everyone was still recovering from the cake-sitting.

[@MyNameIsNeutron]

Asim's song is also really underrated and well-deserving of the joint win.

[@meow-px6kk]

the horse head reveal is actually the most surprised ive been watching this show it was just so funny and so unexpected

[@Andjelka99]

Tim Vine is such underrated contestant. I love his dad humor 😂

[@morten.hekkvang]

Jo's rap was amazing! Love her!

[@sanderschat]

"Because of the angle, i was open...." That is just brilliant

[@gracebevill]

I loved the fairy lights in season 12. Just a subtle background touch, but they gave the show a really festive and cozy feeling!

[@KevinVanOrd]

Katy's thing with not being able to understand Katy #2 because of the rose in her mouth is one of the cutest and most underrated things that ever happened on this show.

[@EnoVarma]

You can't measure in points how lovely Victoria's explanation after the proposal was.

[@HerbertAckermans]

The beauty of Taskmaster is how it can set situations for people they have no idea how to actually handle, but... time starts now...

[@mindicity3874]

28:20 - get someone who looks at you like Desiree looks at Victoria.

[@Hope00Love]

Even sweeter when you listen to the podcast and hear how in awe of Desiree Victoria is.

[@Dhor16]

Victoria's instant semi-proposal reminds me of the Lexi scene from Grey's anatomy, where she blurts out her feelings and just rambles on and on... which is I think a TV history moment. And Victoria just spontaneously made a speech as loaded with emotions and as engaging as a whole TV show production team did.

[@anyalazor7978]

Desiree's proposal is my favourite, I watched it so many times😍

[@jennidoesherbest]

The way Victoria talks about how much she loves David is like something out of a romance novel ugh

[@snazzypazzy]

I really think the cake thing overshadowed how awesome Asim's song was!

[@rentonharper673]

“Because of the angle of the squatting, I was open”!!!! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

[@nickismagda]

29:20 mad 'have you ever drunk bailey's out of a shoe?' vibes

[@ghjgme]

I forgot Asim got 5 points, because it feels so overshadowed by Liza's cake love.

[@rs8751]

Being deep in the lore and knowing Alan has had snuff on at least one other occasion (on QI)....

[@youngdolo8]

That's not "another" occasion...

[@1492irina]

Ed Gamble's number sounds like it could be a rather good villain song, kinda like Gaston

[@phil.7064]

Jo brand saying 'I'm a roadman' is something I'll never forget

[@MirandaAltha]

Oh I’ve thought it was “rogue man” this whole time 😂

[@MoonlightAcid1]

love that no one questions giving everyone 5 points lmao. its effectively the same as giving everyone no points

[@b.b.8955]

Oh my god Gus’s proposal almost killed me because I fell out of bed laughing so hard…😂🤣😂🤣

[@videoket]

I'm glad the points were included. I always wonder on out-of-context clips who won!

[@FairyNuffMuffin2]

just watch the episodes. a lot of them are on youtube

[@TheCheesyNachos]

I, too, would love to be serenaded by Rose Matafeo (or the reverse, I don’t care, I have a crush on her)

[@snazzypazzy]

I'm in the Rose Matafeo line too!

[@youngdolo8]

Get in line.

[@bridgetjones9183]

Ed was absolutely smashing it! One of the best songs on taskmaster ever

[@nonindividual]

This is one of the best compilations from Taskmaster. These tasks really do fit together.

[@korinnab.2318]

The first few times I watched this show I was actually under the impression that Greg and Alex were married

[@FairyNuffMuffin2]

it was beautiful when Greg got down on one knee and looked Alex right in the eye and proposed

[@horrorfan7148]

Shame they didn't have Alex's answer to which proposal he would have accepted if he wasn't married already. I won't give the game away incase anyone wants to find out themselves

[@leslieedwards6833]

But can I explain why, first?

[@ElectricFury]

Perfect for valentines. Time to find a chick pea.

[@-rae-2124]

"Oh, no! He loves metaphors!"

[@konayasai]

To be honest I kinda liked Victoria's proposal the most. It felt the most sincere.

[@jimhirsby7154]

I love Alan's references to The Simpsons....first his "dignity" sweater, and now Hugh's proposal to Lisa

[@PhiltheMoko]

Sounded like Rose was cribbing from Lenard Coen's Suzanne if I'm not mistaken. Pretty good in my opinion.

[@thornlings]

Victoria is so sweet talking about her husband. 😍

[@todd-makes-videos]

8:15 I promise not to fertilize ya. Haha

[@todd-makes-videos]

12:15 Greg Davies I want to have your babies. Hilarious. Love it.

[@jgage2344]

I am sorry but she should have won that ,having Alex sit on that cake ….nothing makes Greg happier than tormenting Alex ! True love ❤️

[@terryquery]

I just realized that "Loose Women" is a TV show in the UK. This whole time I've thought Greg's Mom was a known lesbian who may or may not be watching loose women walk by her home at any given moment. LOL

[@pikkutaiteilija]

Cheering up my work day, are we?

[@alexapowers573]

The best Valentine’s Day gift is a Taskmaster upload!

[@agneswilder733]

Tim: "She's on the right yeah?"

[@iliketrains3495]

I just realised Desiree's proposal task was from the same episode she easily downed her drink, so the 'gag reflex' boast is very fitting

[@FiXato]

"What did you do, Alex?! That cake was for your bear donkey!"

[@andreasaldanha3622]

Asim's rap is freaking brilliant. Like I'd genuinely add it to my playlist if it was available

[@palmeroringor]

Is it just me? Because I've watched Taskmaster multiple times, at 11:17 , I think the music that Asim is sampling on the keyboard is way different from what is heard on the Series compared to what is heard here.

[@OliviaOnline]

Licensing

[@megiab]

oh wow ed was fantastic here! how'd i miss this actual show! time to re-binge!

[@MegCazalet]

I *forced* my now-husband to write me a love letter on our first anniversary. But might I point our he told me he loved me after only 6 weeks knowing each other.

[@Jellybeansatdusk]

If the duck marriage isn’t here I’m done

[@nissegranqvist225]

I‘m genuinely crushing on Rose. 🌹

[@innergranola1299]

All of these compilations revolve around Liza's cake task. Of course..... I have watched it every time. Never gets old.

[@verity3616]

The proposal skit has some serious untapped comedy potential. I'm surprised one of the contestants didn't propose in the sense of marrying 'the taskmaster's assistant' and go on about their mutual devotion. "I know he likes to watch." There is an endless series of double entendre available for this.

[@maximehaldane]

Why was my initial thought for the proposal one, “someone’s gonna kidnap him”

[@kisbie]

Happy Valentask Day! Our task is to love all other people forever. Our time starts now. 🥰

[@echognomecal6742]

That really ought to be the wording for Taskmaster Valentine card merch :D

[@VaupellGaming]

07:50 🤩 DAMN.... that's impressive, just the ending needs a little wooorrrrkk, a quick dismount would be appropriate in this situation.. can't place it, but it feels strangely familiar.. Leonard Cohen perhaps. or kill bill soundtrack..

[@Sol-mr1lv]

Guz made Alex an offer he couldn't refuse

[@GriotDNB]

Can't help myself, I have a Morgana crush.

[@IsM1ku]

[@gardenlover9663]

Glad it wasn't an ice cream cake.

[@emercycrite]

Alex Horne in a sailor's outfit is 🤤

[@KarlaJTanner]

Only giving the wee airplane 2 points is a fucking ripoff. I feel very strongly about this.

[@MegCazalet]

In college I had the BEST window to be serenaded upon in the moonlight but all I got was my landlady shouting up bitchy elitist passive-aggressive comments.

[@FairyNuffMuffin2]

clearly you should've serenaded yourself. apparently that's how everyone does it XD

[@theawesomeran7779]

Shes Old Gregg

[@happivaras]

22:23~23:07 R O F P M S L I mean. If that's not a heartfelt impossible proposal I dunno what is. Edit Oops I meat irresistible Not impossible 😅🤣😂

[@pcbassoon3892]

Maybe it's because I am American and she is Canadian, but Katharine Ryan makes me cringe so bad, I usually have to skip when she talks.

[@hambone.fakenamington]

Idk that just sounds like your own personal intolerance, but the fact that you’re complaining about such a stupid nothing thing that has to do p much entirely with your own internal issues does line up with you being American.

[@videoket]

I was turned off at first because I was so used to the British comedians, but I then decided Katherine is a treasure. Her gutsiness with the "make the biggest mess" task was awe-inspiring.

[@marmarballz]

Your comment makes me cringe. Also it's creepy how you say you're American as a reason why you dislike Katherine Ryan. That's completely illogical.

[@pcbassoon3892]
