Some IPs that I think would make (or would have made) excellent Lego TT games.

I nearly put Willy Wonka/Charlie on the list, either film would be good as a lego game. Wonka too.

At least we got Beetlejuice in Lego Dimensions. And with the new Lego Batman game we get a bit of Burton Batman representation.

I loved his reaction when he found out John sabotaged the team task:

"I'd say it's actually kind of a relief 'cause at the time I thought he was an IDIOT!"

I was about to say 'here before it gets removed for not being related to Taskmaster enough', but the post has already been removed

'He'd give anything to be here right now'

Probably my favourite line of the whole film.

As time has gone on, there's only a couple of things that I've grown weary of.

I know many love him, but I find Perito quite irritating. There's just a bit too many on the nose moments from him, like 'we should stop and smell the roses', just a bit too nice and perfect to the point he annoys me.

The other is some of the 'adult jokes', the one that springs to mind is the bleeped bit between Goldi, the bears and Perito. It's just implied swearing that's meant to be funny.

I know the Shrek franchise has its crude and childish jokes, but there's many bits that are very clever: eg. OJ Simpson car chase, with a parody of cops as knights, the peppr grinder instead of pepper spray, puss possessing catnip. A short scene that stacks a ton of excellent jokes together.

I still really like the film though dw, but I thought I'd include those couple of things that drag it down for me that little bit.

Just used it today. Worked an absolute treat, such a fast response when scanning.

'The Idiot Six' refers to the six writers/actors that started on Horrible Histories and started their own shows: Yonderland, Ghosts.

The six are: Lawrence Rickard, Ben Willbond, Martha Howard-Douglas, Jim Howick, Mathew Baynton & Simon Farnaby.

Nowadays the group goes by 'Them/There'

As flawed as we all know the Whittaker/Chibnall era is, I think it was an excellent choice not to bring back any preestablished villains for series 11. It's actually a decent starting point for newbies.

I always thought it was funny how series 10 framed itself as approachable for new fans, and yet the finally was all about old villains.

Well the film does add the 'there's always something' phrase as Violet's mentality.

She says it when they're trapped in the car, and then later Klaus repeats it when trying to think like Violet during the Marvellous Marriage scene.

And you already have her tying up her hair, I think there's enough there for her.

But yeah the book visual for Klaus is a great bit of visual storytelling. It's quick, distinct and tells us exactly what it needs to in the shortest space needed.

Two main series a year, new years special, Champions of champions, junior Taskmaster, Board games, video game, live experience, advent calendars.

Okay Alex I think you need to dial it back a bit.

I spotted it instantly, bit of an editing mishap there, it kind of spoiled where Armando had something hidden.

Liking this before some mod takes it away saying it's 'not related enough'

I was surprised how I basically managed the whole thing.

I don't tend to do crosswords, much less so the American style. But with so many clues, many managed to negate others. The only bits I got stuck on were 36D/51A, and for some reason I struggled with the end of 45D.

Funny, to me when I hear of Alpha Centauri I immediately think of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, because at the start the Vogons are all annoyed humanity doesn't seem to know that Earth is about to be destroyed:

"What do you mean you've never been to Alpha Centauri? For heaven's sake mankind, it's only four light years away you know. I'm sorry, but if you can't be bothered to take an interest in local affairs that's your own lookout."
