Taskmaster - best ever task

[TFSRM]

It has to be the tying yourself up task in series 7. Just a brilliantly evil task and Rhod Gilbert has the best solution.

Rosalind was so funny - Sally Phillips is just brilliant in everything.

I really loved the one where they had to do a real life version of a computer game. One of them did Grand Theft Auto - genius.

David Baddiel and Jo Brand making a cup of tea and not giving a damn. So funny.

I am really enjoying the current series. They have had some fantastic people on it - I especially love Rhod Gilbert and Johnny Vegas because you can never predict the sheer madness they come up with.

How could I forget the one where they were in a room with random clues and none of the men listened to Liza Tarbuck, who figured out they needed to hop 100 times and just did it herself!

Not the most memorable - Alex getting his pants pulled down at the top of the ladder, or in a bikini snuggled up to Rhod probably get that - but the one where they had to make up a song to the Taskmaster tune. All were shit but I still hum along when the theme is on.

That was entertaining and depressing in equal measure.

Men really don’t ‘hear’ women at all, do they?

I sing David Baddiel’s lyrics every time: “Taskmaster’s on, it is on now ...”

I just remembered Rob Beckett doing the accents! 😂

Oh how could I have forgotten that? That whole task is great especially 'I creamed myself'

There’s a Bob Mortimer one where he makes an edible mask and Alex has to taste it. I don’t know why, but it cracks me up!
I love Daisy May on this series, she’s excellent and doesn’t give a shit!!

My all time favourite is Doc Brown's nursery rhyme, where he punches the fish while doing a rap version of once I caught a fish alive.

We watch Taskmaster loads because it's DDs favourite program. Rosalind's a fucking nightmare regularly gets sung around our house. They've had some great contestants on. The latest series has felt odd due to no audience but it's been funny. Katherine Parkinson really is Like Jen! (IT Crowd)

I'd forgotten Mel and Hugh doing the Scandi Noir trailer. That was brilliant, and that was one of the best series casts.

The little man going on the adventure on his bike through the storm drains with flames shooting out at him and plastic reptiles was also brilliant, especially as everyone else had just smashed up the little man toy!

I don't think the season 10 cast is as good as some of the previous casts.

The charades across the river was very funny in the Dave Gorman series , also agree with @Thurlow about the drawing animals end task in this series .

definitely Rosalind

Josh getting Gregg's name tattooed on his foot! 😂

Definitely Rosalind.

Also really loved Tree Wizard but my husband doesn’t find it funny and thinks I’m mad that I laugh for ages every time I think about it!

Season 8 was probably my least favourite season but in the first episode they were set a task in a deserted goods yard where they had to sneak up on Alex.

He was waiting up on a bridge with an air horn type thing and ducked up and down every 10 seconds trying to spot them. It just struck me as SUCH a fun game to play with a load of mates. I really wanted to give it a go!

Tree wizard - sung every week and Alex sitting on a cake - Liza Tarbuck.

I have only watched this series. Does anyone know where I can watch the others?

Love the characters on this series. It seems like Alex has a thing for Katherine as he is always helping her out on the tasks.

They’re all on demand on All4, plus e4 is showing an episode per night at 7:30, but they’re ‘bleeped’ so not as funny.

Johnny Vegas' charity video for people who are upside down made me cry from laughing.

I've thought of one.

When they are given £20 and 6 weeks to "get Greg the best present" I think it was Hugh who made a series of bets and got it up to £250 (ish) for Greg, who was delighted at the idea of all the cash - except Hugh (might not have been Hugh) gave it all away to charity and Greg was mad It was the juxtaposition of Greg's delight turning to shock turning to rage turning to unquiet at his rage at starving orphans for stealing his money that did it for me.

It was Richard Osman, he mentioned it on the podcast this week.

I have to really try and not sing that version around the toddler...

So many:

Liza making Alex sit on the cake
Helium eggs
Rosalind (who was apparently on The Chase the other week)

The board game is loads of fun too.

I loved the foley task - I was at the live record for that one and hearing Jo and David chatting away during it was making me cry with laughter.

I also really liked the script task from the episode just gone
