He is also the reason the show exists. I believe Alex started the tasks as a distraction from when Key won the Fringe. Being Taskmaster was Alex’s way of coping.

When Tim used Comic Relief as a tool to high-five a 55-year-old and Alex suggested he donate £185 because it “just feels like the right number” was the moment I fell in love with this show forever.

I have to say, I do now want Tim Key and Frank Skinner to collaborate on a sitcom about the bumbling misadventures of Brad and Geoff.

I think that’s the reason he was in the first season. To show that you can break the rules, that you can do a “wanky workaround”, cheat. And he was also in the first show because he’s a good friend of Alex. In those early days, comedians were wary of appearing on Taskmaster, they feared it would be like Fear Factor and there’d be humiliation. So there was great deal of reluctance. Tim’s a friend of Alex, Roisin is a friend of Greg’s. So they were on the show. The others were taking a chance I think. Tim also appeared in the first version of TM at the Edinburgh festival. Subsequently he’s become a consultant for the rest of the series.

I think it was because he is Alex’s friend so he thought Alex might be kind to him in the edit and not notice/ let him win…wrong.

I love his coy little sip after talking to the Swede.

Of all the people who participated in helping the comedians pull off their tasks, Fred has to be my all time favorite ! He is such a good sport and is really rather funny. Taskmaster needs to do a “Best of Fred” compilation !

Tim is who I'd like to imagine I'd be on Taskmaster. Joe Thomas is who I probably would be on Taskmaster.

Another game to play is working out which tasks from series 2 onwards were Tim’s ideas. Pretty much anything where they have to excite/hug/do something bad and then apologise to Alex, I’m guessing.

His performance on the high-five is a modern classic

Hands-down the most memorable contestant they've had, and it's no surprise he now works on the show. The first series was a strange one because they hadn't really worked it out yet - a lot of the tasks were taken quite literally, then Key came in and bulldozed all that! The cup funnel was genius!

Absolutely charming. Bluff denial and bluff admission of cheating without missing a beat

For the high-five a 55-year old I would've googled if any of the shop brands were 55 years old. If so I would high-five the shop logo. They never said it had to be a 55-year-old human. And a high-five with 2 people is technically a high-ten as ten fingers are involved so if anything a high five with a logo is actually more accurate.
