Taskmaster - S13 E3 - I Think I've Got This.

It is so fun to think about how they always mention Alex not liking physical contact or getting uncomfortable being too close to people and stuff like that, and then seeing the situations he gets himself into! I am not sure if I say this enough, but my love for Alex Horne as a comedian runs deep. He truly is amazing at his job and is naturally delightful to watch.

And if you don't like the idea of the tea cakes with jam.. at this time of year they do a variety of them without the jam and biscuit called "snowballs". Soft sticky marshmallow in thin chocolate with small shavings of coconut on the top. not the yucky dry type of coconut tho its nice. Scrummy af! Can never just eat one of them!!

.

The pop ups task was one of my faves - love those chaos ones where they are like wtf do I doooo! lmao. The final task has some really good outtakes. 😇 The air in the glass can come from the water pressure being too high in the taps. The longer the water sits the micro ghosts.. i mean bubbles collect together and some cling to the side of the glass.

I cant believe nobody has explained the pheasant plucker one to you, M. It doesn't just trick your brain - it comes from a "tongue twister" type of rhyme thing where you repeat a line and try to get faster each time the more often you repeat it you're more likely to screw up and mix up some letters. Like trying to repeat "Red Lorry, Yellow Lorry" several times without saying "Lolly" by mistake 🙂 The line goes.. "I'm not a pheasant plucker I'm a pheasant plucker's son and I'm only plucking pheasants til the pheasant plucker comes." So Sophie was totally on point in the prize task. Also the Cupid Stunt one comes from the Kenny Everett sketch show, it was the name of one of his characters.

I'm catching up on TM apologies if you already forgot this one 🤭 ...sorry but here's my TM hill I'll die on... using CG / Green screen / effects / all that stuffs in a task - IS CHEATING! IT'S FRICKEN CHEATING!! NULL POIS!! Also related, the scoring on this show is such BS anyway it's all fudged I don't care what they say. They are just saying that to keep up the "magic of television" or whatevs. They know who done well and who didn't. they can literally place any tasks in any episodes to make people look good or bad. The only time a task feels legit is on the live finals. I had noticed an occasional issue with audio for a while but I just assumed it was me to be honest. Sometimes when you talk over a video without pausing I can't hear what you'll say because the video is too loud (or you are too low). It doesn't happen all that often tho as you are usually very polite and raise your hand before speaking. 😇😊

Remember 13 minutes 22

Joshyboiiiiii

The volume is fine too me. And i think its always have been. But maybe i just turn it down a bit if something is to loud. I know thats very difficult for some people. But Hey, im extra talented i guess? 😆

Carl-Fredrik L

What the heck did I miss it?! I swear he didn't say it. This is a ploy to make me go back and rewatch for extra views isn't, Mandy? 😂😝 Well it worked because I'm gonna lol 🤣

Ryan W.

Interesting that Mandy pointed that out just before Judi said "pickLLLLLLLL"

Robert Allen

It's still technically classed as CGI because the image is being projected onto the green screen by the computer, but I do agree, I personally would only class CGI as stuff like 3D animation and special effects.

JokerDanny

They do. (Paul "the party animal" Parker from the Ricky Gervais Show finger click and finger gun) 🤞👉😆

JokerDanny

Lots of accents = lots of variations... Judi has a London accent, so "pickles" becomes something like "pick-auwws"...

BobSandwiches

Lol. Between the three of us, we have all possible permutations that garbage software can throw at us (unless someone else always gets a random volume 😱). I hate computers.

BobSandwiches

I would not dream of casting aspersions on your glassware 😁! Your drinking glasses are fine (probably!): the nucleation sites are literally microscopic. 😸

BobSandwiches

It isn't actually, that would be Manccy I think? If you made it a single word. Or Manc-y, mancey wouldn't work. The definition of manky I was thinking of though, to describe how you feel is "dirty and unpleasant". It isn't at all related to Manchester

irreverend

Hahahaa! Is Manky like from Manchester? 🤔

Mandy Cane Lane

I have failed yet again 🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

Judi is superb! She is so naturally funny, I love her

Mandy Cane Lane

Thank you Connor 🤗✨️

Mandy Cane Lane

Dang, was I at least close? 😅

Mandy Cane Lane

Oh snap! I need to brush up on my Izzard viewings! 😅

Mandy Cane Lane

Oh brilliant!!! Well done, 10 points!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahahaha, there are a lot of words that are a "Judi" thing. I love it! 🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

Morgana! I couldn't remember who it was! I kinda like the bonus points though. Adds ti the unpredictability of who is going to win! Like when live tasks add real points

Mandy Cane Lane

I heard it too. 😅 Did your player glitch or am I being gaslit? Lol 🤪

Mandy Cane Lane

Mine always starts with the last volume I used 😅. Also, thank you for the feedback! I struggled for a very long time to get volumes right, so please let me know if they are ever off 🙌🏻

Mandy Cane Lane

Haha , close enough! 🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

I believe you! 🤗✨️

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahahhaa, quite bold of him 🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahahhaa! I think so, but I am the worst person to ask 😬

Mandy Cane Lane

Dang, I fumbled harder than I though 🫣😅

Mandy Cane Lane

Thank you Stanley 🤗

Mandy Cane Lane

They sound amazing except for the jam. Do they not come in a jamless option? 🤔

Mandy Cane Lane

Hmmm! Interesting! I was planning on the NZ version, but after I caught up. I won't remember the tasks anyway, or to do them out of order though 😅

Mandy Cane Lane

Oh it is high on my list! And Ardal seems like a fun guy! 🤗✨️

Mandy Cane Lane

I don't tan! 😭😭 Only happened once in my life last February because I burned to a crisp 😅😬

Mandy Cane Lane

Ohh, didn't notice that Joeb! Also thank you for explaining, the sounded lovely until you mentioned they have jam 😔

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahhaha, love it! 🤣🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

Ah, so my glasses are just shite. Got it! Haha. Thank you for explaining! 🩵

Mandy Cane Lane

If you Google “toasted teacakes” you only get the buns! They’re just called ‘Teacakes’ with the cheapo knock off brands.

Podey Williams

I think toasted teacakes might be the offbrand lidl version or something lol

Joeb Rogers

They’re called Tunnock’s Teacakes, not toasted teacakes…! Toasted teacakes are the buns with raisins in them that you stick butter on.

Podey Williams

Although this wasn’t CGI because there wasn’t any CGI, it was all green-screen!

Podey Williams

For some reason the video player always starts muted for me. Weird

JokerDanny

Same here. The overall volume is always too loud at first, so I have to turn it down. But that is the video player's fault, as it always starts on full volume - nothing that Mandikins can do about that. What is important is the relative volumes between the show's volume and Mandy's vocal volume, and I have never noticed any issues there.

BobSandwiches

The bubbles on the glass are dissolved air that has condensed out of the water as the water in your glass warms up. Warm water can hold less gas than colder water, so the air condenses out. They stick to the sides (tho larger bubbles rise to the surface) due to sticking to the imperfections in the glass where the bubbles form (technically known as the "nucleation points"). So, yeah, science, not ghosts.😉 🧪☑️ 👻❎

BobSandwiches

My love for Alex Horne is purely physical. Which he'd hate, obviously

James Aston

Bridget’s ball also finished rolling several seconds before all the newton’s cradle stuff too Also, the thing you wanted to eat with a candle in it was called a toasted teacake (with little actual relevance), it is filled with marshmallow as you thought with a thin layer of chocolate on the outside (cheap), the base is a little bit thicker and biscuity, there is also a little bit of jam inside.

Joeb Rogers

Happy taskmaster Wednesday. I'm looking forward to taskmaster Thursday next week haha. Hope you feel better from all the heat; feeling less heavy. At least you can get some tan in. 🙂‍↕️ 'History/pre history'? Innit weird how stuff like that only clicks when you're an adult even tho you've used that word all your life.

Benjamin Taylor-Yates

I feel 'Father Ted' starring Ardal O'hanlon from this series, might one of the last truly classic British sitcoms that you haven't seen. I think Father Ted is up there in people's minds alongside Blackadder and Fawlty Towers.

Yoshua Simoleit

Yeah. He said it. I heard him say it.

Jeffrey44

A suggestion for the end of this season…. I do not know if you planned to watch Taskmaster from other countries, but it is a good idea to watch season 2 of New Zealand’s version of the show before returning to season 14. The reason is that some of their tasks were so good that they were later used in the original show. It helps that this season is epic. It is comparable to the 5th and 7th seasons of the original.

Saar Rahav

41:50 those are called Tea Cakes, chocolate covered marshmallows with a little bit of strawberry jam in the middle and a biscuit on the bottom.

JokerDanny

Thanks, Mandy

CGI stands for Computer-generated imagery.

JokerDanny

6:10 Has Alex's chair always had those 2 crows eating on it? I've never noticed that before and now I'm imagining Alex in The Crow makeup.😆

JokerDanny

Ardal having a go at everyone’s attempts in the studio, knowing full well what he has done always cracks me up 😂😂

AWR93

Can't wait for you to react to Father Ted at some point, you are going to LOVE Ardal O'Hanlon in it.

JokerDanny

At first glance I thought that marble at the beginning was the poster of the Alien (1979) movie. 😆

JokerDanny

I haven't noticed any volume problems in any of your videos, your always the same volume to me, had no problems, no idea what that person is talking about about.

JokerDanny

I must be thinking of another episode or another season or something, or maybe another show entirely, but I swear I remember after Sophie's cone task Greg saying something along the lines of "I found your character to be extremely annoying and I for one am glad she died." 😂😂

Ryan W.

Greg said in an interview, I can't remember where, but the reason he stopped giving bonus points is because it helped Morgana Robinson win S12 when she called Alex "little fucker".

Robert Allen

We don't change the L in pickles for a U. I think that was just a 'Judi's accent' thing 😂

Ryan W.

For the prize task, I would have brought a cardboard cutout of the Korean comedian Haha. Can't say his name without laughing.

Robert Allen

FWIW, the Jeff Vader routine isn't from Glorious or Dress to Kill, it's from Circle

Robert Allen

CGI = Computer Generated Imagery CGI is a form of VFX ( Visual Effects )

Connor Ellis

Judi had me crying with laughter with her babbled response when Sophie asked her who if she knew who built the pyramids lmao

hasty rewrite

Computer generated imagery :)

irreverend

They looked like two cock(erel)s circling each other about to have a fight whilst she was saying stopcock, which is funnily enough what you'd say to two cocks about to have a fight

irreverend

The volume is absolutely fine by the way.

irreverend

Muggy weather. I'm not making that up I promise, it's in the dictionary. But I can't think of a word to describe how it makes you feel either. Manky maybe?
