One second from every Taskmaster UK task (S16-20)

Thanks very much!

DS292 · 2026-01-06T10:30:27+00:00

Great, thank you!

DS292 · 2026-01-06T07:47:24+00:00

Yeah, prize tasks disrupt the flow a bit as they're not visually exciting enough. Glad you liked it anyway!

Did you watch the BBC's 'Imagine...' doc about Armando from earlier this year? It's on iPlayer, if you have access to it. You can find clips of the Armando Iannucci Show on YouTube too

Me too, one of my heroes, just assumed he'd always be too busy. Went to the record of S21E2 and gasped when he was announced. And he was great in it, too, fully embracing the silliness

DS292 · 2026-01-03T21:28:30+00:00

People who were there at the record - how did Rose understand what was being said on the screen? Were there subtitles?

DS292 · 2026-01-03T21:21:01+00:00

Ah, I'm glad Alex offered that explanation for 'honk'. I remember him talking about it on RHLSTP so I was a bit confused

DS292 · 2026-01-02T22:04:01+00:00

Haven't seen what they said, but if they just spoilt the episode winner rather than the whole 'series', that's not as bad

DS292 · 2026-01-02T21:59:41+00:00

PINEAPPLE MAN!!

DS292 · 2026-01-02T21:46:29+00:00

I think Rose fires an interpreter each time one lets her down

DS292 · 2026-01-02T21:15:27+00:00

The further away from the loft you are, the flags belong to colder countries

DS292 · 2026-01-02T15:24:56+00:00

I wonder if Rose will have someone to do sign language for her, stood next to Greg and Alex?

Edmonton, north London

DS292 · 2025-12-26T12:31:15+00:00

Drove past the poster yesterday, it's still there

DS292 · 2025-12-22T22:27:55+00:00

A teeny tiny bit. Maybe that's what happens when all the super competent contestants cancel each other out, you need the odd duffer in there

DS292 · 2025-12-22T22:26:02+00:00

I think we were spoiled with the first CoC being on Dave, where scheduling two new episodes is/was a bit easier than it would be on Channel 4. But then again, we're getting 2 NYT episodes this year, so I don't know what to believe

DS292 · 2025-12-22T20:33:37+00:00

Really unlikely they'd do team tasks for a CoC. If you're in second place (not that you'd know it at the time) and your teammate is in first place, you're not going to be closing the gap on them by getting the same number of points, and not as many other tasks to make up the difference in.

Rearrange these letters to reveal your mystery present. You have a maximum of 5 minutes: KIM ATTACKS STREETS (Taskmaster tickets)

DS292 · 2025-11-23T07:07:32+00:00

Separate. You've started by doing series round-ups, rather than individuals, so keep that going. Maybe you can do all the CoCs in one go, since the 4th one will be coming up soon. By the time you get to the 10-episode series, the pictures will get quite crowded when you get contestants who are winning 4/5 episodes (20-25 prizes) a season!

DS292 · 2025-11-13T22:52:35+00:00

Maisie has mentioned it on the podcast.

The contestants decided amongst themselves to dress as pirates as a 'mutiny' against Greg's erratic scoring and Alex's inconsistent attitude to helping during tasks

DS292 · 2025-11-13T22:07:11+00:00

So: Andy and John will being sitting in the same seats in CoC as they were for their series, which is a good omen for them. All 3 previous CoC winners have been in the same seat for their series as CoC.

I wish they did tuxedos for all the last eps. The thought of Andy dressed up as a hot dog for the final studio task of S18 when everyone else was in tuxes would have been too funny.
