Josh revealed on the Taskmaster Podcast that he filmed all his tasks for Champion of Champions in one day (Bob, Katherine, Noel and Rob did their tasks in two days), and he was exhausted because his baby daughter Pearl arrived a few days earlier. When filming was complete, he returned to the green room at the Taskmaster House to find another Task envelope. Inside the envelope was the text: *"Dear Pearl. Have the best life ever. Your time starts now."* Josh later had the opened envelope framed and hung on his daughter's nursery wall.

So as long as he can just wave his hand and go "nah I like it better this way" then it's hard for me to put much stock in the voracity of the points system. Its not on par with the significance of points in 8oo10cdc, and even that show it's like... who cares? Sean (may he RIP) lost that show 19 times out of 20 but there's no prizes, they don't keep official tallies... there's no difference for the "contestants" whether they win or lose each week, it's all just a format for the actual show which is comedy. So even there, the points ultimately don't mean anything. Its all for a bit of fun, anyway. We're not running national inquiries on Joe's disqualification in the potato toss or Rhods suss qualifications despite visibly failing tasks etc.. as long as we all have a laugh and James has maybe lost his mind a little bit during the process, Greg can do whatever he likes 👍

No Bob?

Brennan Lee Mulligan would not only smash Taskmaster but would certainly make it onto a winners season.

“I use Cheetos as contact lenses” is such a bizarre funny thing to say out of context

I don't think it's possible for Bob Mortimer to be embarrassed. He lost that prize task before it started.

Rob Beckett’s laugh makes me think he could be a very entertaining Joker.

You're probably misunderstanding it, though. He wasn't laughing about blowing, but blowing off. Which means farting.

Thought bob was gonna try lubricating the table when he grabbed the WD40 but then he just blew the can LOL

People are gonna be really excited for this... until they find out this season's only two episodes long.

I love that they brought Katherine's floating candle trick (I know it wasn't "hers" but you know what I mean) back for a future task lol

Noel Fielding has a lovely laugh. He looks like a little kid when he laughs. It’s so pure

Katherine's in it to win it, but this is gonna be a close season.

For the perform a miracle one, rob should’ve just taken his contacts out again and put them back in: “I can see!!!”

Wow Greg makes everyone look tiny in that intro, especially Bob Mortimer. You could literally fit two Bobs into Greg

I didn't think they were going to post this series, but this is great!!!

Oh my goshhhhh! I didn’t think they’d actually do it! This is gonna be such a good season. Edit: Yeah, I realize the season’s not new. The show’s just not streamed in my area, and I’m just glad they put it online! And also the cast is great together!

THE CHEMISTRY WITH THESE PEOPLE IS AMAZING

25:23 Alex stifling his laugh in the background is me whenever I see someone having a breakdown.

at the fisrt task i emembere greg saying Noel is a LAD and he Totally is. smashing it lol

I love Noel, he’s always just having a great time

Holy balls Alex's face after the pen fiasco was priceless. I loved all the contestants confusion and complaining too. My favorite live task of all time.

"Most embarrassing item" Me: lemme guess Noel will bring like a regular suit or something he wore to a funeral... like seriously a NORMAL suit. *sees what he put up* Yeah, I missed the item but my heart was in the right place.

the more I watch of this show the more I want to become a comedian entirely to be on it myself because too often there's such an obvious cheese that nobody finds and it BOTHERS ME

As an American, this was the only series I wasn't able to find anywhere on-line. Thank you so much for posting it here. Can't wait to see the rest of the episodes!

Some of the funniest parts of this show is watching for Alex to break character and laugh.

More Noel and Bob? Yes please! I love these episodes, I’m glad they’re on KZread now!
