In this Broadcast Award-winning, BAFTA and Emmy Award-nominated entertainment show, Taskmaster tyrant Greg Davies (Man Down, Cuckoo), with the help of his loyal assistant Alex Horne (The Horne Section and the show’s creator), sets out to test the wiles, wit and wisdom of five hyper-competitive comedians.
Comedians that have risked life, limb, and dignity in the hope of making the Taskmaster proud so far include: Frank Skinner (The Frank Skinner Show), Mel Giedroyc (The Great British Bake Off), Romesh Ranganathan (Asian Provocateur), Hugh Dennis (Outnumbered), Sally Phillips (Bridget Jones’ Diary), Rose Matafeo (Edinburgh Comedy Award Winner 2018), and Russell Howard (The Russell Howard Hour). Unaware of what awaits them in each wax-sealed envelope, only one competitor can become the victorious owner of His Royal Task-ness’ golden head and be crowned the next Taskmaster Champion.
I think the only thing better than Rhod constantly trying to abuse Alex is the fact Alex was always so happy to go along with it
i like how at the beginning of rhod's turn, there's a cut and then there's smashed eggs on the floor with no explanation
😂😂 never noticed that before
We all need to thank our lucky stars that Rhod Gilbert went into comedy and not literally anything else.
I don't think I've seen as much actual excitement and happiness in Alex's face as him playing tag. Pure joy.
actually seeing james acaster having fun is one of the best things i've ever seen
I didn't know watching Alex and James chase each other was something I needed more of.
I like that Jess probably didn't realise she could leave the lab, pretty sure that's not the only time that happened as well
In the 'Make the Scale read 31.770 KG' task, Alex had to gently nudge her into realizing she could leave the lab.
@@47Jaspers on yeah that's right, she asked for all the crew's shoes to put weight on the scales 😂
God knows what Sally Phillips would have done to Alex if this task was in her series.
Whatever it would have been, Alex wouldn’t have been able to walk for some time.
Probably something similar to the special cuddle task
Rhod Gilbert and Sally Philips could definetly play a serial killing couple in a film
They absolutely should- good god that would be great
“WAHAAA BANANA!”
Me in Mario kart from now on
This one seemed extremely obvious so I wonder if some of the contestants placed higher emphasis on the 'excite' part, since if you were trying only to increase his heartrate it is objectively best, and blindingly obvious, to go with extremely strenuous cardio, since the body has literally no choice but to raise it's heartrate it's a 100% guaranteed bet. Probably the only other things that can get close are *actual* torture, horrifying fear, and hard stimulants too I guess. If they'd have pushed him to his physical exhaustion point it's quite possible we could have seen a peak of 200 which for healthy males is fairly often achievable
I agree with you but have to add that a max heart rate of 200+ for someone Alex's age would be rare. It would be normal for a healthy person in their teens and twenties. ✌
For the average person, their maximum heart rate is 220 minus their age. It's unlikely that it would have been 200.
Misread the title as "Execute Alex"
I think Rhod did the same.
When the show ends, that will be the final task
@@chickenpie7836 I like to imagine that they have hundreds of Alex clones that get recycled after every task, so Alex doesn't improve or adapt between contestants
I wonder if you got Alex to shout "come on I'll fight anyone" and point to a stranger across the road and say "I'll fucking chin you mate" how much he'd respond??
Two words: waterboard Alex
Honest to god, that was my first thought
My solution: "Get your phone out, Alex. Let's find a sex phone number you can dial."
His social anxiety would take care of the rest.
7:43 🤣imagine going to hospital for doing a bit of cardio
Should’ve made him watch one of those climbing outside a skyscraper videos!!! Lol those make my heart race! 😳
Many people don't really get the same sensations from videos, especially if they are not really bothered by heights in the firs place.
WA HA BANANA!
When Kerry goes, "i scored!"
And then gregs reaction in the studio 😂
Full tasks is all we want.
Full episodes would be the greatest task of all apparently...
One of my favourite tasks
Alex! 171/100 blood pressure is way too high haha
0:39 Glad I was able to prevent my drink from coming out my nose
How cold does the UK get, on average? Alex is wearing thermal trousers underneath his regular trousers, and I'm wondering if it gets cold enough in the UK to warrant them, or if he's wearing them as an additional layer of protection from getting covered in crud.
It's obviously above 0, so it's not warranted.
@@kored8688 Oh, I don't know. 10C here in Australia has me with my thermal leggings/top on, unless I'm in a warm, cosy room.
@@sheilaboston7051 That's almost beach weather for a Swede!
It depends on the season and how far north you are, but thermal trousers are pretty atypical in most places (except perhaps the north of Scotland but idk for sure, I've never been there). Taskmaster is filmed in London, where the average temperatures in winter tend to be about 4 to 9 degrees Celsius (39 to 48 degrees Fahrenheit).It can get fairly cold, but we're also used to it being cold so it's rare that we need that many layers. Or maybe most people just haven't thought to wear them despite it being a good idea, I'm not sure.
@@sheilaboston7051completely agree!! Being in australia, perth, i hate colder weather😂
Now I have a reliable way of monitoring my pulse, I am SO jealous of Alex having a pulse of 63 whilst standing up 😭 mine only goes that low when I sleep. The lowest it goes while standing is 130, then I have to lay down after a few minutes to stand a chance of getting it back under 100.
(Yes, probably POTS for anyone thinking that.)
I am convinced Jessica Knappett and Noel Fielding are the same person.
Somehow it surprises me Acaster calls it Tig, but then again, Kettering is in Northamptonshire which is technically the Midlands even if it’s considered a bit “Southern” by most Midlanders
Wait, is "tig" a Midlands thing? I heard it all through my childhood and I thought it was just a general British thing (for context, I grew up in Birmingham).
I'm from the Midlands and I've never heard of 'tig' being the name 😂😂
I don't think James' WAHA BANANA gets the attention it deserves.
171/100 is pretty high for standing reasonably still- Alex Horne still onboarding those moreish cigarettes I would expect...
Alex tied to a chair wearing next to nothing? And the task is to excite *ALEX* ...not gonna lie, it excited me haha
I didn't like this task, it was just about getting Alex to do as much exercise as possible. They should've made him stay in a chair
I'm surprised they didn't all go with exercise, given they don't have to do anything. (I mean, I know Rhod wasn't trying to win...)
i feel so bad for Alex omg
When I watched this for the first time, my first thought was to take Alex's heart rate monitor off, put it on myself, and just intensely exercise for the entire time to get a high heart rate reading. Then I watched this video and realised the task said "Greatest increase in ALEX'S heart rate wins", so I'd be disqualified...
Rhod should have done the bikini thing in this one.
I thought the title said "Execute Alex" and was very disappointed when I heard "excite"
LOL just chase him
Wahaa banana! 😂🍌
I'm concerned for his blood pressure- 170 over 100 is worrying
He's not sitting correctly and it's not on correctly so the blood pressure is off on most of the shots.
those portable monitors are notoriously inaccurate and his arm positioning will lead to an artificially high number. but yeah, he's stressed so his blood pressure is likely elevated
This is so weird, just tell him to do jumping jacks or run around. It is an easy way to increase heart rate.
Not everyone came up with this idea
😊😅😂
Is alex a pervert lmao
hi
None of the chicks thought to lift their shirt
If they put me in there, they’d be genuinely concerned for my health. I have high testosterone, not in a “arrgghh I’m so manly” way, like medically my test is high, so when I do intense physical exercise, my heart rate can easily break 200. The most concerned I ever was was when I reached 220 and felt completely fine, actually it felt great.
