"I chaaaaanged it" is one of those things that make me crack up every time.
Especially when he then questions his name 😂 “yessss?????”
The best moment in the whole of the show, right up until Wozniak.
And then their incredulous and concerned reactions of "oh my, what could she have done?"
TOP 3 best moments for me for suuuuuure
It's suuuuuper sinister. I love it, what a play from Katherine there.
I think the tattoo was really the first of many insane moments from this show - that definitely raised the bar for future seasons.
I don't get that?? It's literally tiny and just the name Greg on his foot lol. It's not like a huge risk
@@nadiarowbotham6273 It doesn't need to be risky to still be a nice symbol. He committed to have a, more or less, permanent image commemorating greg and his time on greg's show inked on his body. It's silly and unnecessary, but massively flattering.
@@nadiarowbotham6273 Mate, he got the name of a co-worker tattooed permanently on his body for a few "points" on a comedy game show with jokey prizes. Tell me you would do that for your job.
I don't know what would be a "huge" enough "risk" for you on a comedy game show. Maybe a game of russian roulette would satisfy your standards?
Lol as EMS 76 said, this is literally permanently putting your coworkers name on your skin for a game show. Also none of the tasks are risky…so yea😅
@@nadiarowbotham6273 It's .. A.. Tattoo. As in, it's permanently on his skin, for life, all to get a couple of points on a made up comedy show, where the points win him nothing except a fake gold bust of the man, once again, whose NAME HE PERMANENTLY INKED ONTO HIS OWN BODY. I know someone's said it before, but it would be like if a coworker at a temporary, summer job, dared you to get a tattoo of THEIR name on your body, and you did it, and no one even bought you a drink afterward.
Gregs "Is it real?" is so child-like and whimsical I love it
Josh could never have known this show would become what it is now, and he bet big at the start. The tattoo remains absolutely legendary!
They should have done the buy a gift task every year.
It’s my favourite as well!
Yeah but it wouldn't be fair towards the previous contestants. They would have much more time to prepare if they knew what they had to do.
@@emilyche1101 the previous contestants only had to compete with themselves, its not one season vs the next lol
@@piggyslayer1999 Yeah but if some contestants had watched the show previously and some hadn't it wouldn't be fair. At least I think that's what the original person was talking about.
but if you get 20 weeks i feel like that advantage is kinda moot@@Yashirmare
Josh's is the best gift for it's permanency - and the fact it was the first series and still hasn't been one-upped. With Katherine's a close second. Joe (Lycett's) chair is probably the most grotesque. 😂
I think possibly the only way to up is to name your child after him, and I'm pretty sure that would constitute some form of abuse
@@joyphil4399 maybe as the middle name? 😄❤😁
To this day I'm dissapointed Iain didn't say he was wearing "greggings"
"we've both got crushingly low self esteem, *haven't you* ?" Lmao
I liked how Alex just lowers his head and doesn’t answer.
@@asterix7842 I wonder if he’s hiding a smile :)
When Josh started tattooing for a competition, It seems Greg wasnt ready for what he signed up for (as Taskmaster). 1:40
I love how among comedians on this show the misuse of charity is kind of a little running gag. Joe’s courgette and Tim Key using the guise of Comic Relief to get members of the public to participate in that “high five a 55 year old” task
They did donate al Murray's money to dolphins that one time
"Greg Davies, I wanna have your ba~bies" is too good. I looooooooove Assim and his song 😍
I always wonder in the first series, if Tim had bought a Jeep, could he have beaten Josh’s tattoo?
I love the one from Dave Gorman- absolutely characteristic gift!
Josh’s gift and Greg’s reaction literally never gets old. Ditto Katherine’s gift and reaction.
Yup can't miss an opportunity to spew your politics even on a comedy show meant to be a diversion from the everyday. Katherine has been my least favorite by a landslide because of the multiple occasions she does that.
@@disht2
I thought Aisling Bea was the worst for that - getting in umpteen of her regular Feminist comments.
I expected Nish Kumar to be similar with his race comments, but he took to the tone of the show well and was far less relentless about it on this show - and Richard Osman's House of Games - than he is on most other panel shows.
That's what I love about Taskmaster, House of Games, and Would I Lie To You - they're mostly just about fun for funs sake and the humour is warm and, mostly, politics and agenda free. That's so unlike many other shows nowadays and it's a big reason why they're three of my favourite modern shows. 🙂
@@philh5292 @Brian Grimm
There there boys, nothing bad will happen to you if there's more equality for women and people of colour.
@@joc1178
?
My post wasn't about the rights or wrongs of equality. As was perfectly clear. It was about it being an unnecessary debate to bring up on light hearted shows like this, House of Games, Would I Lie To You, etc.
There's plenty of shows where they do get discussed on a regular basis but there's still room in the schedules - or damn well should be - for shows that are just about light hearted humour, and not every show making political / agenda driven points - from either left or right wing viewpoints.
Nowhere in my post was it said those points shouldn't be brought up and addressed on more suitably serious or satirical shows, as they frequently are.
@@joc1178 you miss the point completely.
please make it the same volume the whole way through. the trumpet instrumental is SO much louder than anything else
YES
Yes indeed, it's a bit loud between the segments. And the low quality of the video is odd as most of the videos on the channel are in full HD.
Exactly i try to listen to these to sleep. Tragic
I am actually furious at this
@@aseemsharma4964 EXACTLY! 3 am and ive got this shit waking up the whole gd neighbourhood ffs
”You talk a good game but that’s just a Pavlova” got me more than it should
It always impresses me how well Greg and Alex do the Taskmaster and minion bit
When Jon Richardson said he looks up to Greg Davies, he was being literal.
“We’ve both got crushingly low self esteem. Haven’t you?! (stares at Alex)”
9:10 Bob going "oh shit" in the background made me laugh way more than I should
Never noticed and I’ve watched it multiple times
I love that those are in chronological order.
alice: "well"
Gregg " you've said quite enough!" lol
Amazing that Avalon pretty much runs British TV but they don't understand how to upload a RUclips video with balanced audio and in a resolution higher than 480p.
Avalon runs British tv? I’ve never even heard of them.
@@funkyfranx in england they call tvs "avalon boxes"
@@andracatheduckking257 Mate, we call them TVs or Tellies (turn on the telly, that sort of thing). Avalon are a production and talent company and unless their boss is a guy called Arthur who managed to shove a sword into a stone then they don't run British TV (because then we'd know who to blame for bullshit like Take Me Out).
@@Screaminglemming nah trust me you call them avalon boxes
@@andracatheduckking257 Fair enough mate. Next time you're in the UK you can call them that and see how that pans out.
11:25 Of course he was able to write such a great song.
That is what happens, if you are surrounded by the musical geniuses that are responsible for the greatest pirate radio station in the entirety of Brentford.
The title says sucking up to Greg, but I just see it as being the complete opposite of Rhod Gilbert
As a video editor myself, It's not that difficult to balance the audio levels. Why are the breakers so much louder than the rest of the video?
Wouldn't kill them to upload in something stronger than 480p either! 😂
Get a life
@@LPKelly380 Choose life.
Choose a job.
Choose a career.
Choose a family,
Choose a fucking big television
Choose washing machines, cars,
Compact disc players, and electrical tin openers.
Choose good health, low cholesterol
And dental insurance.
Choose fixed-interest mortgage repayments.
Choose a starter home.
Choose your friends.
Choose leisure wear and matching luggage.
Choose a three piece suite on hire purchase
In a range of fucking fabrics.
Choose DIY and wondering who you
Are on a Sunday morning.
Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing
Sprit-crushing ga me shows
Stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth.
Choose rotting away at the end of it all,
Pishing you last in a miserable home
Nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish,
Fucked-up brats
You have spawned to replace yourself.
Choose your future. Choose life.
I'm sure they know how to balance it, they are just evil.
@@joncarthy2370 i
Do the Brits have a string of comedy quiz shows or something? I love these clips. You see these same crazy funny comedians on a lot of them.
Yes. And yes. :)
@@daniellamcgee4251 I love these shows!
Yes they're a favourite of ours and when we like a comedian we tend to put them in everything.
who wouldent want to see more of alice levien
no ones gotten him a better gift or kissed up to him better then the tatoo sure maybe as crazy as stunts pulled like the man in the brown suit bringing in his marriage liscence off the top of my head but this upped the bar for all the following seasons to get weirder
Joe Wilkinson
"That's impossible to beat."
Yep, still hasn't been beaten.
Greg turns into a little girl when he gets excited.
I’d marry Greg Davies if he wasn’t half my age and was actually interested 😂😂
I assume you mean half of your age added to your whole age, but I kinda hope that you did write it correctly and is over 100 years old. If so congrats on living so long 🎉
Congrats on being a centenarian
I absolutely adore this show.
I think (almost) all of Rhod’s prize tasks should’ve been on here
Someone please tell the editor to lower the volume of the between clips transition.
I turn it up to hear the voices and then I'm deafened by the transition!
I just watched this exact video on the taskmaster channel
It's the Homage to the Taskmaster
Pretty sure this is the production company channel that make TM, their channels are linked.
14:50 Paul looks so confused between Lou and Sian in this conversation
Paul looked confused throughout the whole of the series. 😂
Someone tell me Greg's next line was "Well I am over-wem-ed".
What is up with the sound of the transitions being 18 times louder than the show? Chill down, editor.
Pretty sure thats simply where commercials are. Its usually louder to get the attention for the commercials (in case you fell asleep) and after the commercials.
Fun fact: Katherine's gift is actually a scam! She basically only bought the right to use the company's special title, and no actual land!
Yep, her "it's just a way of exploiting your ridiculous system" should actually be "it's just a way of exploiting dumb Americans".
@@Milamberinx She was born in Canada and lives in the UK...
@@jimmyreece5781 Canadians are a type of Americans, just not a part of the US.
@Nicolai M Americans by definition are natives or citizens of the Untied States, of which she is neither.
@@jimmyreece5781 Try saying that in South America and see how long you can avoid getting dipped in tar and feathers. People in the US like to call themselves 'Americans' as if they are the only ones, but why should people outside the US care?
With everything that came out about that "Established Titles" scam, I wonder if that gift for Greg was the same. 🤔
Was there a dinner party eventually?
4:17 it’s a shame cus that’s not actually real… golden moment ruined by a scam. The real law is that that’s a title that must be given by the royal family or something like that
Whoever edited this is very bad at volume control. Every time it did the red TM Wax cut, my ears exploded
A little audio mastering goes a long way
Greg: The horrible thing is I don’t know what happened to B.T. He could be still be around.
Rhod: I think we all know what happened to B.T.
😂😂😂
First clip in and already had to close this video. The fact it didn't have Josh's reaction when Greg sees Roisin's gift and says "oh no" is ridiculous.
Poor Katherine.. Bought into a well known (nowadays) scheme.. :(
You make my tongue swell explained XD 17:25
I got a weird theory that Alex is into that dommy/submission shit and that is the whole motivation for this show.
Why the fuck is Rhod in this hahahaxD he literally did the opposite of sucking up to Greg
Nice, the Good old Howard Carpendale CD😂
Oh she got nailed by that scam lol
Thee audio levels need to be balanced, it's awful to watch and just have my ears blasted out by the interstitial music
oh those scams lord titles LOL
It's funny to think now the Katherine's gift is just a novelty piece of paper (might have just been a scam) because you can't get a title for a square foot of land. Also you can't buy land that small so you don't even own it. It's very likely that the company doesn't even own that land and it's just completely fake other than an unofficial piece of paper.
yea its basically buying a star except on earth
Why is the trumpet so loud :(
Joe W @3:28 is soo mysterious :D
Why is the volume between clips so ridiculously loud?
Solid compilation but I really wish you included scoring.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣We go together like steak and cheese 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😎
Not perfectly edited at the end, but still great.
The Lord thing is such a scam. Lol
little did she know she fell for a scam, poor greg
Why is the quality only 480p?
480p in 2023 is bold
2021
How did you take videos and cut them up and somehow loose video quality? XD A feat really.
We don't get to know the names of the contestants, Avalon doesn't know how to edit video (especially hard for a production company evidently). There is just a video flung out "at" us and we should be grateful. No wonder people post these with better information and audio that doesn't make your ears bleed.
i wonder how much katherine got paid to shill that titled land scam.
I’d wear that shirt
I’ve diarrhea at the moment
Really, 480p?
480p video wtf
I'll take a lot of lazy clip shows of things I like but there are literal children editing better and more complex stuff than this
The lordship turned out to be a scam, poor greg
Love the part where you stole the content. Great cut & pasting.
They produce this show lol
Not really i direct repost of the official Taskmaster post. DISLIKE
480p - yuck.
I tell ya what, when Greg licks his finger and rubs Josh's ankle... It screws with me. I hate people rubbing their saliva on me 🤦 unless it's a partner ofc
He must be the worst jigsaw puzzle solver in the world. 26 hours and he has done 1/4 of a 4k puzzle. That is not even a 4k puzzle those are 4 1k puzzles.
I’m willing to bet that I’d be worse. For whatever reason visual things escape me and jigsaw puzzles and word searches completely escape me
@@ace.l.w There is a form of visual processing called 'visual closure' . From what you discribe it sounds like you may have visual closure difficulty. We all have something quirky about us! This might be your thing. :)
@@daniellamcgee4251 awesome, thank you! Brain and medical stuff always fascinates me. Any chance it could be related to my ADHD or EDS?
@@ace.l.w Yes! Visual processing difficulties are common with people with ADHD, due to extra eye movements making it hard to track what is being looked at. Then the information being received from the eyes to the brain is scattered, and there can be difficulty sequencing that scattered visual information to make sense of a whole image. Also, some people who have ADHD have a bit of short term memory loss associated with reading. I am not sure if that applies to puzzles!
Also, recent studies have found there are definite links between ADHD and EDS. People with EDS are significantly more likely to have ADHD than the general population. Studies are suggesting that maybe a gene associated with ADHD is triggering the different gene associated EDS. More interest and research Is being done exploring these links.
People with ADHD and EDS often also have Dyspraxia - also called DCD - Developmental Co-ordination Disorder. Dyspraxia is where the firing of the brain can go out of sequence, so things such as ordering information like words or pictures. Co-ordinating body movements is a bit random! This most obvious sign of dyspraxia is clumsiness. A dyspraxic person could do tasks out of order, like drying their face before washing their face. They might have trouble with speech, and navigating themselves through space. I am mentioning this in case you relate to it.
By the way, I am sorry you have EDS. That sucks. I have fibro. and CFS/ ME so can relate a bit.
Im kinda disappointed that so far nobody has bought a female escort as a joke
Lou Sanders and Daisy-May Cooper were the most annoying contestants imo
Couldn’t watch the series with lou sanders! She is awful
