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.
The sincerity in his voice when he said "please don't take it away from me" though
Alex cracking up like that is rare too
Sincerity? It was the least sincere tone I’ve ever heard XD The flat delivery is why it was funny
@@itsokay7989
Alex also cracked up in season 7 when James Acaster & Rhod Gilbert get into it over the satsuma incident. Pretty funny.
He sounds like Dobby
It's almost heartbreaking
From Katherine being moved to tears about hating sports, to Jon's gnome-running, to Joe burying the potato, the gloating, the reveal, the desperation, the vote, then to Doc's "that is harsh"...this is the task that keeps on giving.
And the "we fought for you mate but.." at the end from Jon was a perfect ending hahah
By far my favorite task.
so true!
WE only knew Half the story Ben! Check Docs right foot at 5:20-21 !!!
An all time great...
James Acaster would of just walked over and put the potatoe in the hole and been like I didn't touch the red green my shoes did.
This is why James is the best.
Exactly what I was thinking I would have done
First thing that came to my mind to do as well
Rhod Gilbert would have spent 35 minutes creating an incredibly elaborate contraption to put the potato in the hole.
Boooo, Thats poor sportsmanship
*starts to push carpet* alright so im going to tie a string to the potato
Ikr lol. I'd just keep pushing the mat
@@annabelaitken2600 rly???
Same woman that bragged about people not knowing how smart she was in the bridge building episode 😂
@@MinorKey135 She's really smart
@@LW-bw8or I know she’s very intelligent , but this is still not a light bulb moment for her. I’m just joking about that moment of hubris that didn’t pan out right
Catherine's breakdown was incredible.
Also Joe Willkinson's tragedy was compounded by the fact that Joe brought his wedding certificate as prize.
Please dont take it away from me.
Best line of the entire series :D
couldnt tell if she was crying or laughing...
@@Sarubotai i think she was trying to fake cry but kept laughing during it
@@Sarubotai choking up about the pressure but laughing at herself for crying about a potato
I read your comment in black adars voice and it was great
Katherine's breakdown is my favorite moment of Taskmaster. So much emotion over something so simple. A lifetime of repressed frustration let out over a potato (not) going in a hole.
+1!! I come back to this episode so very often. Her reaction is so recognisable and genuine. It must be difficult to live in a world where sports play such a large part in everyone's daily life, news and conversations when it doesn't bring you joy or entertainment like it does most people. Honest and relatable.
She must have thought at the time that her breakdown would be the part of the task that everyone would talk about. And it would be, if not for the whole Joe situation.
Have you seen her balloon story on Cats does Countdown? Similar, although way more sinister.
*I don’t care where the ball goes*
Katherine's highschool sweetheart Bobby Kootstra broke up with her because he wanted to focus on his football career, Katherine mentioned she was devastated. They ended up running into each other a few years ago and got married and had kids together. Curious if her hatred of sports stems from the breakup.
My favorite part is that Joe starts to say "If I don't get it-" and just decides "Best not miss, then."
I love how you phrased that!
Imagine getting hugs and a giant audience clapping for you, just for throwing a potato into a hole.
Welcome to sports
Sounds like any other pregnancy
And then being disqualified
Sounds like soccer to me
@@Victor_Graves just the first time... after a few more they start wondering how often you do it.
Joe Wilkinson and the potato is the best moment in Taskmaster history for me
Funniest moment in television history for me.
I laughed so hard...It has been the highlight for me as well...but I have only seen the 1 season and this eps.
@@jonathanross149 strap yourself in, because literally all of taskmaster is great
Best moment for me was when (i don't remember who) kicked the basketball into the hoop then they showed the replay and it took him like 70 tries.
@@hioeo I love this moment! That was Nish Kumar in S5E1
Can we just take a second to appreciate Richard Osman offering to cede his 5 points to Joe? He did stuff like that a bunch of times in the series... a class act
This is, for me, one of the best bits of television I've ever seen. The whole set up from start to finish - the way the audience is allowed to see replay after replay to build up the magnificence of Joe's throw, the let down of seeing his foot on the mat, the voting to decide whether the result should stand - everything was done sublimely. I will never get tired of seeing this... it's quite simply magnificent. Well done to all concerned. 👍
And people want to badmouth VAR!
Even after seeing this multiple times, it still makes me laugh...
I know right!
I was laughing constantly. I do not know what this show is, but now I feel I have to watch it
Agreed, even better when re-watched because of how smug and satisfied he is watching everyone else's clips (4:04, 5:09) thinking he's about to enjoy the purest most joyful moment of his life. And then the way Greg sold the replay on the reveal, whole thing couldn't have been done any better.
"The red green". Some things are truly language-specific.
ye please explain cause I get the red part cuz from the carpet but where does the green stand for?? the grass?
@@marleen1 The short grass around the hole.
@@Discrimination_is_not_a_right ohhhh
Same here. My Brain: "there is no red green. There is a red circle. Everything red isn't green. And everything green isn't red."
The grass closest to the golf hole is called the green. In this case it is red, making it a red green.
Everyone sold this so well, this is what happens when you let people interact with each other and they aren't constantly scripted word for word. British audiences really have it good

Color blind people: the what
How is this not the top comment, I almost laughed as hard at this as I did the whole video
Shots fired
In Canada Red Green is a old comedy show.
@@DennisHalifax Of which you can watch nearly every episode of for free here on RUclips. :) It's great to watch.
I don't get it... Where is the green on the carpet?
Say what you will about Joe Wilkinson, the man knows how to grovel.
And you'd THINK that Greg Davies would be susceptible to groveling.
@@momon969 Early days, Greg was still trying to be a somewhat impartial Taskmaster.
i think that's what i will say about him, yes
Doc's "that is harsh" at the end was the cherry on top of this episode.
This is - and I mean this quite honestly - my favourite sporting moment of all time. That replay, the drama, it really does have it all. This is how to make television.
Agree but throwing a patatoe in a hole isnt how you make a television xD
@@TristanPopken No, but allowing talented performers to do it made it television. Duh.
I'm amazed everyone used a long object to retrieve the potato for another throw, but nobody thought to just use the long object to push the potato in the hole!
I can just hear Sean Locke "Im sorry, but as a stickler for the rules..."
😂😂😂😂this is one for the panel show compilation fans
Idk if he “touched” the red ... his foot is over it sure but shoes have a natural curve up near the toe
@@rafhurffer7884
Yeah, I qualify.
@@theforgottenviolin8213 shoes also arent part of the body. So he didnt actually TOUCH it. The shoe did
@@Esablaka lol wins via technicality
The fact that Joe didn't get his points is honestly the biggest letdown in human history.
Yeah I found that disgustung of the 2 dudes. Like, I get it, its the game. But still.
@@shy8311 But doc's (or whatever) argument is right, the same throw, 1-3 cm back might not have gone in. It would be like the others who failed on their first try and then start thinking.
And honestly I think if it was less luck and more his effort, the others might have given it to him.
@@MDP1702 How would it have been efford if he was 2 cm more in the back? Like it doesnt fucking matter, its throwing a ball. The other two dudes were just assholes. The other two didnt care and wanted to give it to him just because he made it look so easy. The other dudes are just bad loosers. Sure they want to win I get that but this shit was just petty
@@shy8311 I wasn't specifically talking about this exercise, but in general.
Rule was don't touch, he did. Now if it was an assigment where he did a lot of effort, I'd overlook it, not here. Just like I wouldn't want others to overlook this here if it was me. And doc honestly also seems to have touched it, so should be elimininated too.
@@MDP1702 Its not like this is the fucking world cup. Who cares? Its not like he was on it qith his whole foot. Like, these people need to pull the sticks out of their butts. In my country you would be seen as an idiot for doing that. "But he was slightly touching the red with the tip of his shoe. Fuck off bro. If nobody saw it while he was doing it, then nobody should give a shit. Good to see that you are one of those shitty people too, with you as a friend you dont need enemies anymore.
Shakespearean tragedy for modern times.
To touch or not touch the red green.
That is the question.
None of us knew the whole tragedy Amanda. Check Docs Right foot at 5:20-21. Somebody get the Taskmaster on The PHONE !
This video has everything! It's got humor, emotional breakdowns, a sentimental moment, an impressive althletic achievement quickly followed up with a dramatic controversial twist. A grown man is on his knees begging for forgiveness at one point and then backstabbed by his peers! This video is perfection!
Jon Richardson's little gnome run will always crack me up no matter how many times I see it
BASTARD! *does a little run*
4:45
Especially when he says "Bastard" and then runs XD
I've never wanted Joe Wilkinson to have something more in my entire life.
You can honestly see how Joe felt like a million bucks after making that shot. That's what makes it so great.
The entiretly of Joe's attempt was obviously the best thing to come out of this task, but I think close second would be Alex eagerly jumping up to hug Greg seconds after he hugged Katherine during her sports meltdown
No clue what this is but now I'm emotionally invested.
Lol me too, i'm really glad i found this show
Ironically, he is the one who had the least a mount of contact with the green.
With all fairness: he didn't touch the red green. His shoe did.
If it were me, I would have just run out there and dropped the potato in the hole from an inch above.
quintopia same here but insert ‘and still miss’ at the end.
:)fml
Just a quick English lesson, this is where you'd use a semi colon.
He didn't touch the red green; his shoe did.
@@concernedcommenter8258 but then "his" should not be with a capital letter, am I right? 😂
If not they shouldve said cant enter the red green area
I like how Joe just walks around and gives hugs like he'd just won a Grammy only for them to take it away from him.
If you look at the tips of his shoes, like a lot of other types of shoes, the tips are pointed up a bit. The part that was supposedly touching the red was actually tilted up, so it really wasn't touching the red at all.
Oh, but the red mat has some thickness to it, too.
@@basstrammel1322 Yes, and the grass underneath does as well, lifting it up from the ground.
In hockey if a goal review Is inconclusive, regardless of probability the call will stand with whatever the ref called during the play in real time. If don’t touch the red green potato golf followed these same rules, the call would be controversial however inconclusive and the shot would count.
@@cheesycircumcision In gridiron football (a much better analogy because it involves sometimes looking at whether your shoe touches a line on natural or artificial grass), if your foot looks like it's touching the line in any way, the catch would not stand.
Yeah but technically even if it was tilted up that's part of the game. He could have easily thrown it from another side.
The side-eye when Doc says "that's harsh" and the audience laughs.
So sad. I also get the feeling that Joe was not the only one who actually had touched the circle. I feel so sorry for him.
5:21
@@naheleshiriki5496 Nice catch
@@naheleshiriki5496 and then he makes a big fuss at the end
every now and then I come back to this video just to watch Katherine's speech about sports and it gets me everytime
Joe Wilkinson's 2 minutes of glory is my favorite moment from series 2. So good.
He was so excited, anticipating the clip, thinking he'd won it all lmao
5:19 look at Doc's foot!
Scandal.
RIGGED
UNFAIR
Yeah but that's not as funny
He finished last either way.
idk why but i absolutely lost my shit when joe did his. IDK what i was expecting but I think the simple unexpected shock of it threw me. literally lold for like 30s
the power of great editing to achieve the perfect comedy timing
That was an emotional rollercoaster. I don't think I've ever seen Joe express happiness or sadness before and I was right with him on that journey.
The Taskmaster writing room:
"Guys, we need ideas for tasks."
"How about we make them play potato golf!"
And thus the greatest moment in television history was created.
The victory lap, after waiting through watching the other four contestants knowing what he had done, to the sheer dejection a few moments later. Perfection. I found this show maybe a month ago from , of all things, a Buzz Feed article. I've watched this part no less than 10 times now and have cried for all but one or two viewings.
And Jon sitting around, not voting for Joe for his sure win lol
Jons evil grin 10:07 when they say they should send Joe away for the vote, and he realizes he can get away with it. So good
In case anyone was as upset as I am about Joe's loss, it didn't end up mattering for the season's contest. He ended up coming in last by 9 points, so this challenge wouldn't have made a difference. Also, Joe's final score was an even 69, so in a way this tragedy helped lead to something better than a win.
one could argue him getting the points would change his morale and result in him getting more points
@@jeriji6592 except the show portion is filmed months after the tasks. Unfortunately, there would be no change in morale.
Nice
if anyone's upset Joe's attempt was disqualified, they don't know Joe. That's literally the most 'Joe' thing possible. His whole schtick is 'failing' or coming up short. I wouldn't be shocked to learn he asked them to disqualify him to make for dramatic t.v.
That just makes it even worse. That was one of the only things that he absolutely nailed in the filmed tasks, and it was taken away from him (even though you could argue that he wasn't even touching the red green. his toe could've been curved upward and not touching the green)
The guys throwing the potato, figuring out how to retrieve it from the far side, then running BACK to the original starting point (instead of just throwing it again) was oddly amusing to me.
Pole in the way
The red green. I was so freaking confused lmao
I am Canadian, so I kept thinking of Red Green. I half expected Katherine to say something, but of course there's no point for a UK audience.

@@junbh2 i had my stick on the ice the whole time
Apparently the grass in the vicinity of the golf hole is called green
I never claimed to be smart lol, my uncultured behind was just quaking.
I assumed nothing including the potato could touch the red..... would have taken me much longer time
Yeah same. If you had a long string (or tape) and a ladder you can attach it to one end then lower it down into the hole.
I was first thinking some sort of bola method, but that would be very difficult to get right (probably harder than just throwing the potato in)
Have you ever used a potato to sweep?
I would have gotten a rope, made a single loop around the flagpole with the potato tied to the rope, and then pulled on the rope until the potato made a full rotation and eventually got into the hole.
Doc saying "harsh" is the funniest part of this to me.
Everyone saying he didn't touch the red green his foot did obviously never played 'The floor is lava'. If you wear it it belongs to your foot.
Well if the floor is lava, lava will melt your shoes. Won't it?
@@freddy346ify If the floor were lava, then anything that could be destroyed by lava will be destroyed.
@@nobodyeverinhistory no childhood imagination huh? The couches, chairs and tables are rocks or rubble that may be melting but are slowly melting and are therefore safe to touch.

@@nobodyeverinhistory the original wasnt even a joke tho
Re-watching, I loved that Joe clapped for everyone's effort.
Poor Joe. That was one of the best Taskmaster moments of all-time. Hands down.
Never knew throwing a potato in a hole could be so emotional
At 11:33 you can see a man's heart genuinely breaking
Katherine literally rolls the red green, but doesn't think to roll it further....🤔🤣🤣🤣
I want everyone's footage combed over, I bet more than one grazed the edge of the red green.
Yes, look at 5:21 for example.
There’s a big difference in messing up on a retrieval and stepping over the line for the throw.
This is without a doubt up there with Katherine Ryan’s “mess” as one of the top moments in Taskmaster history
VAR decision pending
VAR decision - no potato hole
9:01 all of the reactions to this line are amazing
6:38 I love how he questions how he'll retrieve it, then mid-sentence just tosses it.
I can’t even imagine what they did before we had potatoes
Harry Heller potatoes aren’t an invention bruh
@@exy8423 that's what the Irish want you to think
I reckon the Irish mostly starved really.
Kind of a cruel joke to put the potato and the Irish on opposite ends of the globe when you think about it.
They eat apples and wheat.
Hands down, best set-up in TV history, anywhere. Made me look like a manic psychopath commuting to work.
One of the best scenes of Taskmaster, that is such a good representation of what the series does best.
Even here, in the comments, people are so invested that they are arguing over whether the shoes touches or not, etc.
Incredible.
Best moment in Taskmaster history. Elation and being a hero, the slow zoom in, the realisation, Joe begging 😂
I love that Catherine starts to cry.. It's a breakdown I can do relate with..😘😭
Nobody:
RUclips: don’t touch the red green potato golf
Me:🤷♂️🤷♂️🤦♂️👍
The sheer, unbridled lust on Alex's face building up to the replay... I do believe Horne very much had the horn there, more than I've ever seen on this show
Everyone's gonna ignore that guy covered red circle with green material?

6:43 The greatest moment in the history of Sport.
I got irrationally angry at the 2 contestants that voted to take it away from him
don't worry, he got a purple ribbon.
Did you not see the replay tho?
@@ananousous His shoes pointed upwards so he never touched it
@@DR-54 The toes point upwards but that's far enough back on his foot where if the shoe is curling up that much, his foot has several broken bones
Tbf tho, if he came up with that excuse, I think they'd definitely be heartless not to give it to him
My first thought was “does stepping on something while wearing shoes count as touching it?”
Henk de Tank same. Maybe taken my shoes off so I wouldn’t dirty my jacket.
Alex. Lie down
yes.
My favourite bit is that Doc and Jon take taskmaster so seriously that they wouldn't give up the points (SPOILER) to someone who wasn't going to win anyway
That's my least favourite bit! How can you take a game so seriously and besides, even if, if you looked closely enough I'm sure everyone "touched" it
Lol they didnt win either. Most likely because Doc is the longest and of course wanted to uphold the rules. And for Jon, obvioisly his wins is at stake.
This was only the third task in the series, and Joe was leading before
"Alex, mate, take this, go over there and just pop it in the hole!"
if putting a tarp down on the red is fine, why can’t they just walk on it? they’re all wearing shoes aren’t they? so they’re not touching it...
Yeah, except what they're wearing is part of them - it just makes sense. Other objects aren't "them."
A so the first shots were fired in the literal war.
feverpa with that line of thinking, one could argue the items they’re HOLDING are part of them as well, so they all failed.
@@jmdietr4172 the possibility of thinking too much into the tasks is a big part of why it is a fun show...
@@feverpa like I said, the shoe is part if the body
9:02 heartbreaking when joe said „please don‘t take this away from me“ i feel like crying and laughing
my god, the rise and fall of joe wilkinson is like a cinematic masterpiece, absolute brilliance
8:32 You can see the outline of his sole and a shadow as his shoe starts to point upwards just before the green
It's uncanny hearing everybody laugh at a doctor who reference, it's this stuff taught in UK schools or something?
yes. obviously. we're not savages.
Well it is on telly on Christmas eve so it is endeed important for everyone. There's also not many shows what got famous world wide so it is really something to cherish
@@CTGrell Unlike, you know, Taskmaster.
Doctor Who is a British cultural institution, of course most people there are somewhat familiar with it. Compare it to how, say, many, if not most, Americans are vaguely familiar with Friends.
3:02 her almost crying because of sports and the hug that followed were too precious xD
I'm watching Taskmaster first time from the beginning and I'm currently at season 8 and am still angry about this.
I can’t find anything past season 6. Where are you watching??
Legit, it's been over a year at least for me and just seeing this clip in my recommended feed tonight brought it all back again.
“That’s harsh” says the guy who in depth explained why the other guy shouldn’t be awarded first XD
Joe's attempt - (6:34) *I. DID. NOT. SEE. THAT. COMING.* - (I literally kind-of screamed laughed) *O. M. G.*
I expected some extensive elaborate weird strange method from Joe, really did
edit - oh no! did not see that coming either.
This comment is as much of a rollercoaster ride as the clip was 😂
I love the edit on this comment
One of the most exciting bits of television I've ever seen. Bless the Taskmaster
Actually, those couple of centimeters didn’t help Joe as the potato hit the back rim when it went in, if he is of the red green completely, it’s a swish.
Everyone knows the tip of the shoe curves up slightly, his foot was just over the red
But the carpet was above the ground as well, lifted up by the grass underneath it and adding its own thickness on top of it. His shoe probably touched it but we don't have a camera angle to prove it.
This is basically a full-on Mr. Bean episode and I'm loving every second of it!
I debate sharing this as THE video to introduce my friends to Taskmaster. It’s so good! It’s almost too good, because nothing else is better.
"That's harsh" hahah Doc had me in stitches
lmao
*Tearing up*
"I dont care where the ball goes"
Taping things together? Red green?
Are we sure this isn't secretly a Canadian episode?
That'd be my response. I ain't touching Red Green. He's in Canada. This is just a red carpet shit bags!
Probably the most heartbreaking part of the hole-in-one shot is that Doc and Jon shook his hand to celebrate, only to turn around and vote to give him no points.
I keep watching this clip over and over from about a year now. This clip made the whole show honestly. Without Joe in this season the entire show would just be people doing stupid things on camera. With this moment I’ve been hooked to the entire show.
This remains the best piece of television I have ever seen
Every time I come back to this video, I tear up when Joe realizes. It’s all for fun, but there is real hurt behind those hands on his face.
I just thought I'd introduce you to this super hilarious series me and my mom have been obsessed with for about a year lol
I didn't realize there was such a long time from filming the task to being on stage
I gasped in awe. I cheered. And then they zoomed in on the slow-mo.
I actually yelled out “No!” when I saw his foot touch the carpet.
Until that moment I had never really cared about sports. Until that moment. I think I get it now.
~Cat~
Something about these earlier seasons makes me all fuzzy like.
I don’t know how often I’ve seen this task but it never gets boring. I enjoy every minute even though I know exactly what happens.
I just realized today, that no one said they had to throw it. It says „get“ it into the hole. They could have spiked it on a long stick and drop it. 😂
Katherine crying over the red green sports mess is my spirit animal
"Please don't take it away from me...."
My heart broke.
Yeah? Is that right, Doc? You think, his foot touching the red gave him an unfair advantage? Kinda like how your foot touched the red at 5:20? IS THAT RIGHT, DOC?
That was pure unadulterated evil at the end god I felt my soul crushed for him when they did that replay.
