There might have been some bias, but there was a lot of Rhod actually being funny and/or smart while they were complaining oh no they didn't actually do what the stupid task says to the letter in the game where they intentionally write the tasks to have multiple solutions if you can convince the taskmaster that it's valid. If Rhod didn't keep making the underwear greg joke he would have won.

The two angriest ones, James and Iain, are interesting. If it hadn't been for the fact that James had practiced the hula for so long but then messed up in the first couple seconds of the studio task, that conversation probably would've been much calmer. Iain though... was just being himself, and I can't imagine that conversation going any differently 😂

Marble Run: Alex did not start the timer until it started rolling, which was AFTER the machine was started. Therefore, no interference was made.

[@trathanstargazer6421]

Doesn't matter. "After releasing your marble you may not touch your marble nor do anything to affect its movement." So, once you let go of it you can't do anything to affect it. He let it go when he placed it in the machine, then turned it on. It said nothing about the timer of it rolling. Also the challenge rules started when they said "Your time starts now." at the very start, so the letting go rule was already in play.

[@AanShovon]

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.
