The cheeky expression on Greg's face 🤣

I mean hey, at least nobody got worse orders, the worst order I can think of is: 1) Hand on hip 2) hide jigsaw pieces 3) build tower 4) put things in wheelbarrow 5) hit at least 1 pin 6) put wheelbarrow in van 7) solve the jigsaw Reason I think this is the worst order is because having 1 hand for every single other task is horrible, building the tower near start means it's a bit more likely to fall down, even more so when you have to hit at least 1 pin later on, hiding the jigsaw pieces near the start but only having to solve them near the end could mean you forgot where the pieces are, and finally, putting things in the wheelbarrow before getting it in the van is self-explanatory.

It would flip the whole idea of the show by a bit, but James Acaster would probably work quite well in that regard. He can stay quiet, but when he says something, its hilarious. Same as little alex horne

The spray tan on Alex and Greg is gnarly

I heard that during this task, Ed actually caused some minor damage to the Taskmaster house when bowling

If James Acaster had to do this task: 1) puts hand on his hip 2) puts the bricks in the wheelbarrow 3) fails to build the tower Restart 4) puts 20 things in the wheelbarrow 5) builds the tower 6) puts hand on his hip 7) fails to put the wheelbarrow in the caravan without stuff falling out Restart 8) puts wheelbarrow in the caravan 9) puts pineapple and 19 other things in the wheelbarrow 10) builds tower 11) puts hand on his hip 12) fails to hide the jigsaw pieces, as they are in the wheelbarrow Restart 13) hides jigsaw pieces 14) puts wheelbarrow in the caravan 15) puts bowling ball and 19 other things in the wheelbarrow 16) builds tower 17) puts hand on his hip 18) fails to ball the pins, as the balling ball is in the wheelbarrow Restart 19) hides jigsaw pieces 20) puts wheelbarrow in the caravan 21) puts 20 things in the wheelbarrow 22) bowls away some pins 23) builds tower 24) puts hand on his hip 25) has to search the hidden pieces to complete the jigsaw 26) has to go to a mental health clinic as he has gone insane

Seriously though, nice job on the editors’ part!

My favourite is how cheerily ed says hi to alex at the beginning...but ends with telling him to go fuck himself 😂

Alex’s “so far, so far, so far” about the worst day of Ed’s life became so prophetic with CoC 2.

Eds performance in this is my greatest moment in the entire show, it's the pinnacle of what the site was stunning for, & as someone who had the same bad luck & exudes the same frustrations, I applaud & laugh at him with with a sense if pride & relief. As well as his arguing in this & other tasks, great debating skills

This is one of the best tasks. Loophole that Ed could have used if he had to restart the task. Gather up all 7 mini-tasks, put them back in the envelopes, position them in a good sequence. Then restart the actual task at the front porch, telling him to open any of the 7 tasks and do them before going to the next one. But happy he won.

My favorite task ever. The perfect culmination of an insane and wonderful series.

absolutely one of the best tasks and Ed vindicated once and for all!

its great to see how contestants get genuinly flustered on taskmaster. Its the real human reactions that make it so good to watch the scoring part of the tasks. and since the contestants are comedians, such outbursts end up being hilarious. What a wonderful format for a show.

What a rollercoaster of a task

i never before noticed that alex says "want me to have a look" then just shoves his face into the tree 😂

We need an "Ed getting wound up and angry" compilation.

Brilliant! Top class twist at the end!

I forgot about this one and that they all wore tuxedos on the last episode. Hilarious all around!

This, together with series 6, are definitely the best last tasks of a series

Here for Ed’s rant, loved it!!

This is the very definition of the Cycle of Hurting.

Hahahahahaha, this is absolutely epic, one of the best tasks ever due to that insane outcome coming after one of the biggest rages in Taskmaster ever :D

That finish was sublime.

I fucking love Ed's outbursts! I can't wait to see how many outbursts he'll address on the podcast when it reaches season 9. We'll have to wait at least a year because there are 25 weeks of previous series left but there's also a series 13 coming up this year plus the CoC 2 and next year's New Year Special.
