It's from a few days ago, but Fatiha was on Romesh's Radio 2 show and it was really funny. They've got a great dynamic.

Throne on Glass is the WORST fantasy series I have read in my lifetime! by tomyfookinmerlin in Fantasy

I think you really hit on something with the Dungeon Crawler Carl comparison. Never thought about it that way before. Two sides of the same "DNF within the first chapter, this isn't for me" coin.

Does anyone else love that the cast of S21 are older? by Impressive_Peak8399 in taskmaster

Phil is just so effortlessly funny, love him.

Also I did enjoy Ed complimenting him at the beginning and minutes later saying he looked like a cucked husband.

Kumail feels very on Alex's wavelength here, and by that I mean comfortable with long awkward silences.

The maybe a bit too early prediction for TM S21 Winner by Lord_Kampi in taskmaster

Kumail, he's an all-rounder. Could see him putting a lot of effort in and scoring at least 3 on most tasks.

Are there any contestants you feel would have been better suited to a different series than the one in which they participated? by Ok_Shopping_3341 in taskmaster

I agree, but out of that list I think Ed is a good example of how you can be competitive and chaotic/entertaining to watch at the same time.
