    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.

      Too many people in the comments always talk about their clever ideas to work around the verbiage of the task or do xyz and win. But the point of this isn’t to win or prove you’re a genius. It’s to entertain. Having someone lock themselves in a bathroom or go run errands, clever sure, boring yes. That’s why this show is comprised of comedians and not the general public. These people aren’t merely competing, they are performing. That’s so often lost on many of the people who watch this. At the end of the day, this is a tv show meant to entertain, it’s not about the tasks, it’s about the audience enjoyment.

      The alarm was a different task from earlier in the episode which I'm surprised they haven't included. Earlier in the day they received a task that told them when they heard the alarm sound they needed to put on the boiler suit and lie on the ground as quickly as possible, but there was no alarm and the episode continues on with the task not done. This task takes place presumably several hours later when they've all forgotten about the alarm task.

      @@Apokalypse456 1. Knives are not explicitly designed weapons and most Americans carry them for work, outdoorsmanship or utility.
      2. Idk what cities you're hanging out in but there are definitely plenty of American cities where you need some kind of weapon. Where I live, robberies and violence are common and the police don't show up for hours.

    Nope. Rhod didn't tie *himself* up securely. He tied *Alex* up securely, and then tied himself up pretty loosely. Also, he was never untied *by Alex* , because he untied himself. Therefore, he didn't complete either part of the task (tying *himself* up securely and being the slowest to be *released by Alex* ).

      Problem is to define 'securely'. If I tied myself to a boat securely, that means I will not be able to fall off. So the knots only need to be secure enough to not come apart if I am falling.
      For this episode, tied securely could mean as little as the knots will not fall apart on their own.
