I mean I do think is a good idea if executed propertly, he just didnt wrap it well enough. I personally feel like I would have put all the plates in it, wrapped it really tight and with a double knot, and then hold both end on my hands as I ride on the bike
@@Ariplaygames He just needed to turn it into a bag and toss it over his shoulder like Lee did. Also, I think Lee should have been penalized for breaking two plates, that should have been the risk reward of asking if he could juggle
I loved this gang, but Mike has to be my favourite contestant ever, or at least in the top 5... He's just beyond excentric and witty and I love his Dickens-character style!
Iain has to be the in top 5 simply because of the responses to the failed attempts. The best being:. Can't touch the bucket, did that, can't touch the sand, did that, can't leave the room, ********, might as well do that.
This was a great series. Up there with Acaster/Wang/Godliman. I get a little annoyed with Lee on this series, but Sarah’s constant fear that’s she’s somehow screwing up makes up for it. Charlotte is so freaking sweet and charming it hurts.
2:16 Knowing Lee, and by his initial reply “yea”… you know he instantly had 10 quick witted jokes about Greg’s dead friend and decided against all of them. A true pro 😂👌🏻
You can see the gears in his head turning as he formulates several jokes simultaneously. It's almost like watching a chess grandmaster, thinking several steps ahead of his opponent.
@@ApriliaRSA250 Why? It was one of the given transportation options. If you know how to use one of those. It's by far the fastest. You shouldn't get a bonus point for that.
The tires on that bike look ludicrously soft. I imagine it had sat folded and unloved in the back of some associate producer’s closet for years before being dragged out to be abused by 5 comedians.
From the number of people I see day to day making painful journeys on bikes with flat tyres and the seat slammed, I'm beginning to think we're doomed as a species. Bikes are pretty f***ing simple to understand. I'm suspending disbelief and saying that here they planned it to make it harder for the contestants. Please make it be that.

omg the tension watching mike, when he delivered the plates, i think i said to myself, out loud "oh that's lovely" in some sort of golf-announcer voice
Alex was a destination, they could ask Alex to hop on a scooter, drive to plates and give him entire stack then speed off hoping he would drop everything bcs task ended when he recieved all plates.
My favourite bit about this video is how they deliver an edit to show the task, to then have the task start where the exact same shots are shown 20 seconds later. Top notch editing that
We not even gonna mention the beautiful panavia tornado in background? Edit: looked it up, apparently that particular tornado served in the gulf war. It was named MiG eater since they thought it had destroyed a MiG-29 (one of the most advanced Russian aircrafts at the time), but it was later noted that it was just some French plane (Mirage) parked on the ground
The whole Mike tension thing at the end when he came off the board for a second. I nearly died. I was so impressed he made it with all the plates unbroken.

You only had to use the transportation when carrying the plates. You could've easily (A) picked up the hoverboard, (B) brought Alex to the first table (C) continued to the second table, stacked the plates, mounted on the hoverboard and finally (D) brought those plates to the first table where Alex will have all plates delivered to them. Drag the second table if you're feeling bold and you don't need to use any of the transport modes.
I’ve seen this a few times and just realized both that they only needed to ride something when carrying plates (not to get to them), AND that they could have moved Alex and his table before starting.
I immediately thought about moving Alex to each table then handing him the plates. Surprised one person didn’t try that with the 3 minutes of prep time
For those of you that love a little Wozniak, I recommend the podcast he does with a couple friends: Three Bean Salad. Start from the beginning though. It makes precious little sense otherwise.
In Charlotte's defense, at 36 years old I went roller skating for the first time in about 25 years and it was fun in a way I hadn't felt for a very long time.
Charlotte had overalls... the perfect plate container had she chosen to use them. At least for the big ones, as they were too big to slide down the legs.
Jamali was one step away from greatness, if he wrapped the plates in tablecloth and then walked the tablecloth over to alex (hes not touching the plates!) then that would of been way easier but way less hilarious compared to seeing the plates drop one by one haha
Seeing Woz struggle to pilot that thing brought back images of Johnny Vegas standing on that wheeled rubber boat trying to propel it by wafting the air with oars in his outstretched arms, and humping the air with his hips.
When they designed this show they were thinking "How do we get the most inept people together that fail at every mundane task and basic planning, that will deliver spectacular clown performances, without being too obvious? OH I KNOW! COMEDIANS!"
I've one of those hoverboard things. Mess around on it for a few minutes and you pretty much get the hang of it. They're a lot of fun to whiz around on :)
but do the plates count as delivered without being on the table? edit: also, surprised noone thought to stack them all onto the deck of the scooter, use one foot to keep them where they are and the other to support your weight...
It's interesting that they all return to Alex at the end of the three minutes, they're probably just used to being near him when time starts. They could have started by the plates.
Wrapping the plates up in the cloth was smart. But then he tied it around his waist instead of just holding it like a trash bag in one hand? Man he studied for the test but went to the wrong class. Lol But he does make it up with that pillow spinning skill. Lol
The tension as Mike Wozniak carries all the plates in his steady hoverboard adventure will never fail to make me laugh everytime
They had the perfect music for it.
I don't think 'steady' is a word i'd use to describe it.
@seandowney6216
It looked like an old wool sock.
@@ThanenJ His mother-in-law makes all his ties.

Mike moved so slowly on that hoverboard that the seasons changed.
Mate… the earth has already been swallowed by the sun
But that music made it epic
Ha!
Nah just typical British weather
Continental drift shifted Britain a whole meter by the time Allen got those plates.
Mike Wozniak on the hoverboard is one of the most underrated moments on Taskmaster. Tick tock, total crush o’clock.
Believe it or not, I even bought this scene as a sticker for my Laptop. From Red Bubble, I think :-)

Russell Howard was the best guest for me
I have no idea how a hoverboard is supposed to work. That Mike not only went for it but succeeded in respectable time is laudable.
Mike's absolute commitment to doing the funny thing - god he's amazing.
Absolute casserole.

Mike's delivery was super impressive! Not only did he stack all the plates while on a hoverboard, he did it in the rain. 😲👏👏👏
Deserved bonus pts for completing it with the hoverboard.
@@ApriliaRSA250 Why? It was one of the given transportation options. If you know how to use one of those. It's by far the fastest. You shouldn't get a bonus point for that.
absolute legend, flexes the jankiest transport and still slays it, flicks the water off plates like an OG hahaa I wish he was my gangster dad
@@uqs57bjuI think they meant figuratively.
Note that he only had to use the hoverboard while carrying the plates. He could've picked up the board and sprinted to the first table
At one point Mike looks like a highly inefficient thief having raided the kitchen section of Ikea! XD
Charlotte Ritchie and Mel Giedroyc will remain my favorite contestants of all time due to their infectious joy and optimism.
“Ooh gang!”
SAME
Imagine a team of Charlotte Ritchie, Mel Giedroyc and Liza Tarbuck
@@cazzabojangles with Mike making them sugary tea to calm down after the tasks

This was when Mike established himself as an S tier contestant. One of the absolute best!
If a young adult ever asked me what life as an adult was like, I'd just tell them to watch this show.
To hold true there's fewer varied prize tasks, and the information is never *all* on the card... but alittle bit, maybe- for some adults ;)
Pros of being an adult:
You can eat car whenever you want
You can have 30 chicken nuggets for dinner

You have to buy the cake
Eating that many chicken nuggets for dinner is a bad idea and there was a reason your parents wouldn't let you as a kid

Oh, Woz, you are too pure for this world 😂😂
Mike talking to his hoverboard to get it going was the best part of all this
I can't be the only one who thinks Mike looks really adorable with that helmet.
I can't believe no one dragged the destination table over to where the plates were.
Alex was a destination, they could ask Alex to hop on a scooter, drive to plates and give him entire stack then speed off hoping he would drop everything bcs task ended when he recieved all plates.
This is what I thought! Use that first 3 minutes to move the tables?
I can’t believe Charlotte didn’t put the whole stack down her dungarees
@@saharahamilton728 they had to deliver to Mike
when i watched this episode i literally was like. if no one uses the hoverboard i will be sad. and then mike wozniak pulled through.
As he always did.
The production team must have been internally celebrating knowing that they’re going to film a golden piece of footage.
Oooh! I really like this task, so glad it's a full task video. This task introduced me to how effortlessly cool Mike is, I love his performances.
My favourite bit about this video is how they deliver an edit to show the task, to then have the task start where the exact same shots are shown 20 seconds later. Top notch editing that
Any day Mike Wozniak appears is a good day haha
Tick tock, it's Woz o'clock!
This is probably the origin of Charlotte talking like a childrens TV presenter. Her shouting ‘WHEE’ when riding that scootor proved it.
Fun fact! This was originally an idea taskmaster NZ came up with but didn't think was good enough.
guess they were wrong, huh
They were too busy playing in that sewage filled pond.
@Tao_Tology breh what? that sounds something like fear factor not taskmaster task.
Something about watching it absolutely piss it down on Mike as he slowly creeps along sends me every time

thank you for uploading the full task. nothing else matters
That was a well deserved bonus point
That pillow trick was such a nice extra
Watching her ride the bike at 1:32 was adorable
Alex was a destination, so I would ask Alex to hop on a scooter, drive to plates and give him entire stack then speed off hoping he would drop everything bcs task ended when he recieved all plates.
exactly. Move Alex, and possibly his wobbly table towards the plates then just pass them right along.

You could've easily (A) picked up the hoverboard, (B) brought Alex to the first table (C) continued to the second table, stacked the plates, mounted on the hoverboard and finally (D) brought those plates to the first table where Alex will have all plates delivered to them.
Drag the second table if you're feeling bold and you don't need to use any of the transport modes.
Sarah's hair is really stunning. It's like a lion's mane.
Honestly, Mike should have gotten a bonus point for completing the task in the rain.
Lee as a delivery man: "Here's your new TV, just sign here first please."
*Hulk smashes TV into the ground*
"Not my problem mate."

For those of you that love a little Wozniak, I recommend the podcast he does with a couple friends: Three Bean Salad. Start from the beginning though. It makes precious little sense otherwise.
I think I would've taken the bike and drove 18 rounds without stopping, grabbing one plate at the time. Using the table cloth is a great idea tho.
In Charlotte's defense, at 36 years old I went roller skating for the first time in about 25 years and it was fun in a way I hadn't felt for a very long time.
Banging on my desk table as an applause for that man at the end. Rain, hoverboard, fell off and then back on. Bravo! Lol
The pillow spinning was actually the most impressive feat.
I wish we had quality shows like this in the US
A task of "who can fall asleep quickest" would actually be interesting.
Charlotte had overalls... the perfect plate container had she chosen to use them. At least for the big ones, as they were too big to slide down the legs.
To be fair, the pillow thing was almost as impressive as Mike not dying with the stack of wet plates on the wiggly board.
3 minutes to move Alex to all the plates before time starts. And you can move Alex even after you deliver some of the plates to him.
The bicycle tires needed air. That's my takeaway from this episode.
Jamali was one step away from greatness, if he wrapped the plates in tablecloth and then walked the tablecloth over to alex (hes not touching the plates!) then that would of been way easier but way less hilarious compared to seeing the plates drop one by one haha
he also couldve just tied it a little better/more and wouldve easily been in the lead
While watching Mike Wozniak move plates from A to B by hoverboard, Irritating Kid pops up. “What you’re thinking, there’s a Small Business for that!”
Question: Where the bike tires underinflated on purpose? They seems to be down quite a bit.
Jamali the ultimate ring-bearer at any wedding
I would love to see a task with Joe Thomas and Charlotte Ritchie.
They have such a similar vibe and IDK why
They were in a show called Fresh Meat together!
Mike on that hoverboard is too funny
So the obvious answer is to move the end table and ask Alex to stand next to it, then just sit on the bike or scooter and move the plates.
Jamali had the right idea...until he decided to put them on his back
Edit: Also...Almost Lee...Almost
But Lee won.
He could’ve just wrapped it and then carry/hold it normally😭😭 Why wrap it around your waist omg
If a postman brings my package to my door and smashes it on his way uo the garden path, I wouldn't consider it as being delivered unbroken.
Seeing Woz struggle to pilot that thing brought back images of Johnny Vegas standing on that wheeled rubber boat trying to propel it by wafting the air with oars in his outstretched arms, and humping the air with his hips.
I think that’s the most anxiety I’ve ever felt watching this show
When they designed this show they were thinking "How do we get the most inept people together that fail at every mundane task and basic planning, that will deliver spectacular clown performances, without being too obvious? OH I KNOW! COMEDIANS!"
When I was a kid, I was made for this task. Easy two laps on the bike. One if pressed.
If someone told me that they had to balance a stack of plates just a few meters away from a tornado I would have thought that would be impossible.
I couldn't take my eyes off of the desert pink Tornado. What a plane, what a color!
Use scooter, push tables together, wrap plates in tablecloth, and tie in a bundle. Hold the knot on handles and walk with one foot on the scooter.
The suspense of Mike on that hoverboard is real
Mike Wozniak is the man I want to be come New Years resolution time
That pillow spin was dope!
Had to give a like for the pillow spin!!!
I love Mike so very much.
"If it works it works-- Ah, it doesn't work."
Me, when Jamali tied the tablecloth to his body and then proceeded to drop two
I can only imagine the horrendous accident if Mike had fallen over
Love it - this reminds me of Top Gear
This show is both thoroughly entertaining and the fall of civilization.
Really love that the Jamali clip is included even though it makes no sense with this context
Top class showmanship too.
The serotonin you sold me was more than perfect
Surprisingly, noone tried to move Alex.
That was some pretty epic pillow spinning
Lee should've had the penalty as he did say about juggling them which was agreed, the implication of not having finished the challenge.
I've one of those hoverboard things. Mess around on it for a few minutes and you pretty much get the hang of it. They're a lot of fun to whiz around on :)

hoverboard is the best for this task, but only with wayyy more than 3 minutes of experience
the most impressive thing this time had to be the pillow spin
Did you deflated the bike tyres to make it harder? 🤣👍
Top gear production for this show. Neat
It's interesting that they all return to Alex at the end of the three minutes, they're probably just used to being near him when time starts. They could have started by the plates.
the pillow-spinning was impressive!
What’s with the tornado in the background, I like seeing it, but couldn’t this have been done somewhere else or something?
Ooh, that pillow spinning was so cool
I would have tried picking up the hoverboard, ask Alex to follow me and run to table with plates, and hand him each plate. Repeat for 2nd table.
I applaud the judgment.
Wrapping the plates up in the cloth was smart. But then he tied it around his waist instead of just holding it like a trash bag in one hand? Man he studied for the test but went to the wrong class. Lol
But he does make it up with that pillow spinning skill. Lol
loved the gas engine sound from an electric scooter.
nobody thought of of bringing Alex closer to the plates and then bringing the plates a tiny bit of distance to Alex
01:21 01:32 03:21
I can't stop watching
Put all the plates in the table cloth twist the ends tie them together in a double knot wear them as a purse each side in one turn on the scooter
I thought I saw Lee remove plates from the table cloth that were already broken, besides the one that slipped out on arrival.
