Tasks Involving Water | Taskmaster

[@chayimweinstock443]

Alex being visibly embarrassed at being bribed is one thing, but Sara being furious is what elevates it.

[@swayzocrazo4398]

"you got the money."haha

[@MontyMonferno]

the secret chocolate rule is one of the most brutal ‘secret parts of the task’ in Taskmaster history (along with Under the Table), was nice to see Hugh finally have a victory though :)

[@bootieos7701]

Also, the ping pong ball herding.

[@romakhan6155]

The under the table was even funnier cause that one guy translated the boat to say look under the table and he didnt hahahaha but yeah the don't the chocolate bit was a gut punch 😆

[@mvpein3442]

Joe's attempt at the beach ball task has to be one of the most iconic task attempts in the history of the show... the moment when he starts throwing ice at the ball gets me every time

[@biodonne]

Bwahaha. “There you go. You like the money don’t you.” Cracks me up every time. And Sara’s response is gold.

[@badenhowell3312]

That moment when Alex knows he's in trouble for moving the Bucket will go down as one of my all time favourite TM Moments. 😂

[@shyslayer]

"without moving the fish bowls" is going to be echoing in my head for the rest of the day.

[@KallyWallyX]

Joe Thomas chucking water at the ball is a mood 🥹 Also moving the ball to be within the lines is just so sweet it’s heartbreaking !!

I'm so happy these compilations come out this frequently. It's like rewatching the show but on shuffle mode!

[@emmabruh]

The fish bowls thing makes me cry till today, I can’t

[@Snake3yesEddie]

The way too late realisation that ice is in fact just frozen water & could have got the task done in seconds is on the same level as, coming up with the perfect response as retaliation to a situation but the situation happened a week ago & you’re only figuring it out now at 3am.

[@Cedarellie]

[@THE_CDN]

Lycett ate the choclate AFTER he completed the task. I call shenanigans!

[@audeeophile]

There _are_ shenanigans - but only in the fact that because that rule doesn't have any declared start or end point, it's likely that it's to be assumed always active, even if the chocolate was eaten before or after they started the main task. It's a cruel world, but it *is* still his fault for eating the chocolate.

[@frankshailes3205]

@@audeeophile He may have lost, but he got to eat chocolate, so he won at life.

[@iliketrains3495]

He should have contested it, Lee Mack got away with breaking a plate after completing the task in series 11 because he pointed out that he had fulfilled the task. Although maybe Joe wouldn’t be off the hook since he didn’t commentate

[@hjt091]

@@iliketrains3495 I suspect that's why Joe wasn't penalized for the lack of commentary, the chocolate meant he got no points from the task anyway

[@MinekEzQM]

The one with the two tubs and a belt on Taskmaster NZ s3 was absolutely amazing. I hope they'll feature it in the UK show in the future.

[@lhfirex]

The conclusion of Moneybags' Murray and the bucket scandal really got me this time. Not sure why it's so funny that Rob Beckett gets 20 quid.

[@hannahprose]

Appreciate all TM videos but wish they included the bathtub task from season/series 1. Actually any clip with Tim Key would be great!

[@marmarballz]

Right- there are so many more water tasks too this isn't all of them.

[@espurious]

Does everyone know that Taskmaster series 14 starts next week on the 29th? I found out today.

[@Dilmahkana]

Oh my lord thank you

[@kittyhasfangs2291]

I love Lou spraying Alex. She is so sweet!

[@GravesRWFiA]

One of the great think outside the box is when mawand (sp?) in the move water from one barrel to another, realizes you can add more water to the system. Everyone else scrambled as water drained from barrel A but he got the hose and just rerfilled it.

[@EnoVarma]

The editor just straight up murdered Lolly. But it was hilarious.

[@icturner23]

The bits of ice actually should have made it easier for Rob. But Alex’s solution makes no sense - unless there were tiny buckets in the pavilion they’d still have to move the first bucket to pour the water into the third one, or at best fill it up very slowly with the other items.

[@JLF201]

I wish they had shown a shot of the buckets in the pavilion. I too am curious to know their size.

[@MisterSolitude]

They could have siphoned it

[@qwertyTRiG]

​@@MisterSolitude People on this show are bad at siphoning. We've established that.

[@user-ns3vs3bp3e]

Yeah but you use one bucket from the pavilion to be filled by a poor transport item like the hose them use the nice big bucket you got full of water to walk down the track and pour it into the final one. You’d still move way more water than somebody running up and down the track with a fucking coconut full each time just by the sheer lack of time spent moving between the start and end buckets. Alex is right

[@lisahenry20]

They'd fill the third bucket slowly, but it would be much faster to move to the other bucket. For example, let's say you used the coconut. Instead of having to move a coconut sized amount of water each time, use the coconut to fill the third bucket them move it all together.

[@E-MAN979]

[@kunaljt]

Oh man, starting with 'without moving the fishbowls' is cruel

[@kunaljt]

Perfect timing, thank you

[@mrnexfer8484]

13:13 first thought: move the finishing line close to the ball

[@JLF201]

Someone does do that in the show. I don't know why they didn't show all the contestants' efforts in this video.

[@PonmonofNuggetor]

Paul Sinha did exactly that. Still took him forever to actually do it. I think he came 4th, but can’t quite remember

[@amylloyd6817]

Mel is one of my favorite contestants!

[@mg5347]

He didn't say he wouldn't move it, he said he wouldn't let anyone touch it. As we all know Alex is nothing

[@hiddenbutdeadly]

Question to everyone here how COULD a large bowl of Cooking chocolate help move water from one bowl to another? If we had something like "your time doesn't start till the water moves" we COULD have gotten something like...melting it down and forming it over something to create a "bowl" or heck, if we can use the chocolate..can we use the foil, make that into a bowl shape and use it? this has been nagging me for a while...

[@pitofdespair-seaonsonal359]

The point is that a large block of cooking chocolate isn’t meant to help move water between two fishbowls. It’s meant to be there to trick the contestants who ate it.

[@JLF201]

Not only do you not show the attempts of all the contestants, you don't even list in the description the episodes that these clips are taken from. Bad Dong!

[@jgage2344]

That isn’t what Alex said if we are going to be pedantic…he said he wouldn’t be letting anyone else touch the bucket …

[@burkeiowa]

Around 3:27, by saying "I finished it", I could argue the rule was broken about commentating in the 3rd person. The only argument provided during the episode that was in was that the commentating appeared to be optional for some reason. But once the commentating occurred, the use of the word "I" could be seen as a broken rule, and thus perhaps a disqualification, causing Joe's points to change from 5 for winning - 5 for eating chocolate = 0 to being 0 for breaking that rule. But I could then argue that once a task is considered complete, interaction with the things in the task seem irrelevant. Thus, consuming chocolate during the task can be an issue. But once he declared (using the word "I") that he finished the task, if the task is complete, then I'd argue that chocolate can be had without docking points. So he should go from zero points to...zero points! (This bit of internet entertainment of justifying the same outcome with different reasoning brought to you by me.)

[@jonhohensee3258]

Mel's proposal was SO ridiculous. 5:49

[@hoikbentessel]

But why was it okay for them to hit the rocks with the ball if only water could touch the beach ball (beside the grass it seems) 🧐

[@georgielancaster1356]

Joe was using ice - made of water. Then he found a lot of cubes of ice in a lump, so then he could hold the big lump and push it.

[@iskojc3574]

but joe ate the chocolate after the time ended ?

[@Callhouse]

I never understood why is Sara angry with Alex there and why noone ever talks about what Greg says to her defence isn't what Alex said. He said 'I will not let anyone touch the bucket', implying Alex is the only one allowed to touch it.

[@udun93]

Cos Alex said he wouldn't for her, and also said he wouldn't for Al, until the money was involved. As funny as it is, someone paying for preferential treatment isn't really in the spirit of the show

[@silversleeper1193]

@@udun93 Exactly. If money is going to get involved, let it be for a red nose day special where it all goes to charity. This is supposed to be about using your brain and being ridiculous

[@Callhouse]

@@udun93 he never said he wouldn't do this for Al though, that's literally my point.

[@udun93]

@@Callhouse he says to Al, in response to Al saying you can move it, "no, I can't move it actually", and then suddenly changes to "I don't want to". Having said to Sara that no one else will touch the bucket for any of the others. As I say I honestly don't really care about him doing it cos this whole bit is way funnier than him not doing it for anyone, but also everyone's reaction about the injustice is also funny. I mean you can tell by Alex's reaction as well that it was wrong, and that he feels 'shame'. But again, it's all in good fun, and these moments are part of making the show what it is

[@Callhouse]

@@udun93 he says 'because I don't want to', that's a bit different. And for the last sentence of your first paragrah, I'd redirect you to my original comment here.

Greg really pisses me off in his attitude towards Hugh in the first one. Joe failed the task.

Yes, he was so biased against Hugh that it stopped being funny. I bet that if Hugh had been the one who hadn't done the commentary then he'd have disqualified him.

[@celticwolff5429]

@@llynllydaw I always took it as Greg & Alex winding up Hugh while fully knowing he is going to win the task. Try to make Hugh angry or frustrated then surprise him at the end.

[@TravelingStacker]

You realize its all for fun, right?

[@pitofdespair-seaonsonal359]

I don't necessarily feel Joe failed the task, as he only made commentary about himself while talking, rather than outwardly just talking naturally. He completed the task by doing it in the beginning, re: "Joe thinks that's quite successful.", but he didn't talk throughout the rest because he couldn't. It would be the same as having a contestant who just naturally didn't talk much.
