Taskmaster

Suppose will have to listen to podcast to understand wtf about the Sgt Pepper cosplay.

Glad series is over. Meh Martin. Deliberate spelling error btw. Warmed to mad granny Jenny by the end.

I know it's easy sat at home, but the copying Alex task. 10 secs added to your time if you do not complete a task.

So for example eating the banana, it's difficult to eat a banana elegantly, even more do so quickly, and yiu just know they're after some grungy footage. So quickly peel it, put it down, press button making sure you've finished at least ten seconds faster than Horne.

And so on with anything that took your fancy, as long as you reduced by 10 seconds every time. It would have been amusing to see Alex getting angry when someone actively refused to get sucked into his little schemes.

Plus water in the glass, afraid I was shouting at Kiell, "Go to the bloody tap."

Thanks for heads up, record set.

Definitely an upturn in quality from season 15. Has the makings of a classic series. Will it reach the heady heights of seasons 4,5,6?

When heard the prize task announced said Lucy will bring the sign from the Dog and bd, so predictable. Weakest contestant maybe, but that's just Lucy from Hull playing at the persona of Lucy from Hull so who knows. Though did laugh at the last week's effort of arguing with Greg

LB "The speed limit is 70, it doesn't say you can't do 90!"
GD "That's exactly what it says"

LoL when the portcullis dropped, and Susan's mischief task. Very clever.

Lucy sniffing the dog toy :cough: had us in stitches.

Fellow PHers, please settle an argument for me.

Lucy Beaumont: genuinely thick, or an act?

I think it's all a clever act

I suspect that she has turned a situation where she or someone she knows is confused by some things that are obvious to others into an act.

I'm looking forward to season 4 of the New Zealand one. I think it finished about a month ago, but I have no idea when we will get it (I just watched seasons 1-3 on E4 Extra) I think it's much better than the UK one.

We tried it but we just couldn't warm to the hosts

Agreed, we struggled with the NZ offering. Not sure if it was the hosts or the contestants but just didn't gel.

Though on the UK version the Alex Horne "banter" part is wearing thin.

Really looking forward to this, really glad we've got Kiell over Mae and I love Morgana.

I'd say it'll be between Dara and Sophie as both were super competitive but then Ed Gamble was the same and he completely crumbled in his COC so anything could happen....

Yep really looking forward, same opinion re Kiell vs Mae. Don't discount Sarah Kendall swearing like a sailor per any good Aussie.

The costume variation is bizarre.

Morgan, total sexy vamp.
Sophie, big blue bird
Sarah, just nipped out to pick kids up from school
Kiell, version of Joseph's multi coloured coat
Data, variation on Clarkson jacket and jeans.

That's impressive, would never have spotted that, thank you for posting, today's impressive factoid.
