Bob Mortimer's Best Taskmaster Moments

[@rasmusn.e.m1064]

Bob Mortimer is what you get when a man never questions a single thought in his own head xD I bloody love him xD

He's just the right kind of insane for Taskmaster

Bob is 100% perfect in every show, but what most adds to my enjoyment of Bob in this compilation is Nish’s unbridled laughter at everything Bob does! Although Sally losing it completely over Bob’s anus story is also great, especially considering she’s the maniac of that series.
