Write and Perform a JINGLE | Full Task | Taskmaster

No jingle will EVER beat Romesh Ranganathan's "Tree Wizard", which still goes round and round in my head daily.

Guz gives him a good run for it though. Also, Mo that did the fish punching kids rhyme. And even Victoria's is a solid actual TV jingle

She just has no interest or understanding of the physical world we interact with. I guess we're all different but it annoys the hell out of me watching it if I'm honest.
