00:00♪♪
00:01Aah!
00:04-♪♪
00:18Oh!
00:20Aah!
00:22No!
00:24Hello and welcome to Taskmaster. I am Tom Gleeson and once a week I disrobe my cloak,
00:43descend from my lair and loudly squawk, Caw Caw, Caw Caw, upon which a team of minions
00:49assemble around me and we make a rip snorter of a TV show. And when does that weekly time
00:55arrive? That time is now. Caw Caw.
01:02Competing for my affection are five comedians I've been nourishing with grains and nuts,
01:07chewed in my own mouth and spat into theirs. They are Anne Edmonds, Jenny Tian, Josh Thomas,
01:17Lloyd Langford and Will Anderson. And next to me, the man who went to Questacon for schoolies,
01:27it's Tom Cashman. What's our prize task please?
01:34Our prize task tonight, an object they should adapt into a movie.
01:38Alright. Why not give the multi-billion dollar streaming industry a few freebies?
01:43Josh, what have you brought in?
01:45I brought in this little duck. A boy that came to my show gave it to the sound technician to give to me.
01:52I don't really know why he thought I wanted the little duck but I thought it was really sweet that he gave me
01:57the little duck and I just thought he'd be really excited right now to see his little duck on the telly.
02:02It's not an exact reaction to the prompt but you sort of, it's filmic.
02:07OK. You're essentially wanting to make a film about a tiny duck just because you forgot to say thanks.
02:12This is for one person, this bit. It's for one person. I've made one person's day and night. I feel OK about it.
02:19I agree with Josh. I think that duck could carry a film.
02:24Yeah. It's a shame it didn't carry this segment more.
02:30Lloyd, what did you bring in?
02:32I have brought in a bedside table.
02:40That's not it. A bedside table built by Jesus Christ.
02:48I have it on good authority that before he got mixed up in all that other stuff, he made this table.
02:58And so I thought you could follow, you'd start off with Jesus, you know, young Jesus, teen Jesus.
03:05Teen Jesus? Teen Jesus, yeah. Making the table.
03:09And then you'd follow the table from 2,000 years ago through all the different owners and their lives as well.
03:19It's just a bit tough because Jesus made the table and that feels like a real big peak.
03:25Isn't it? That's the opening scene. That's like if Titanic sank in the first scene.
03:31And then it's just shots of the ocean.
03:42Anne.
03:43Yeah, so my film is kind of like a western and the main character is this.
03:48That's a Nokia.
03:50Like it used to be Top Dog in town and it's like gone away and now it's back to Avenge.
03:56Like take the iPhone out and reinstate itself as like the Top Dog in town.
04:02Yeah, it's a film called Nokia.
04:04Yeah, it's just Nokia. He's back.
04:10Will, what did you bring in?
04:11For a big movie, you've got to leverage off some pre-existing IP.
04:14That's what you've got to do in this modern day times to get a movie made.
04:17So I kept it pretty simple. Barbie.
04:25I know you hate a pun and this has not been good for me and none of these prize tasks have gone well.
04:31So I thought I had to go an extra step.
04:33So I literally paid to get a movie poster commissioned to show you what the movie would look like.
04:48So this movie re-establishes the patriarchy.
04:52I'm into it. I love it. We're back.
04:57What a great film. Jenny.
05:00I was thinking about like all the things that get adapted these days.
05:03Comic books are very popular and a lot of them are featuring a lot of different types of representation at the moment.
05:08But there's still one type of representation that I've never seen on screen.
05:12So what I've brought in is my own comic book that I've made myself using Microsoft Paint.
05:17It is Eczema Girl.
05:23Is this based on you?
05:25Yes.
05:27There was once a girl with eczema and she wished every day for her eczema to disappear until she realised it gave her the power of scratching dry surfaces.
05:38One day her town is invaded by a big moist villain.
05:42Gom Tleeson.
05:44And she's scared by his wetness. He's so undefeatable.
05:48And just when all hope is lost she remembers he has a dry sense of humour.
05:55And she defeats him with one big scratch and everyone cheers.
06:01That looks like the storyboards for one of Will's shit sketches.
06:07Oh mate, I would dream of that.
06:10Oh well I'd better hand out some scores.
06:12Yep.
06:13There's a lot there to play with.
06:14I'm not sure I could watch 2,000 years of just a book being put down on a bedside table.
06:18So one point to Lloyd.
06:20I'm going to say two points for The Tiny Duck.
06:22You can't make a whole film about it just because Josh didn't say thank you.
06:25So happy with that.
06:27And then I'll give three points to Jenny.
06:29I did like the concept.
06:30And four points, of course you know, there's a film about Tetris.
06:33You can have a film about Nokia.
06:35So five points for Will because we've re-established the patriarchy.
06:42I'll take it.
06:43All the good work done in the Barbie film has been undone.
06:47Alright, I'm itching for a task.
06:49Not as much as Jenny is but let's do it all the same.
06:52Okay, it's time to see it be up and down with some Up or Down.
07:06Hey, Jenny.
07:08Terrapin.
07:09Hi, Lloyd.
07:10How are you?
07:11I'm okay.
07:12That's good.
07:13This is fun.
07:14You think?
07:15I don't know.
07:16Oh, there's the task.
07:17Yep.
07:20Make this balloon hover between the flags the longest.
07:23Already I don't understand it so that's a good start.
07:25In eight minutes the crane will release the balloon.
07:28After the balloon is released you may not touch it.
07:31Before the balloon is released you may not remove it from the crane.
07:35Your attempt is over once the balloon floats above the flags.
07:38Or sinks below the lower flags.
07:40Longest balloon hover between the flags wins.
07:44Your time starts now.
07:46Make this balloon hover between the flags.
07:48What does that mean?
07:49Oh, there's...
07:55Okay, so we have to make the balloon float
07:57without going up or down, pretty much.
07:59Well, this one seems pretty straightforward.
08:01Yeah.
08:02Should we get into it?
08:03Our first two hovercrafters are Josh and Lloyd.
08:05So it just needs to hover.
08:06So we want to keep it down.
08:08The only way to really do that is to weigh it down
08:10but if you weigh it down too much it'll just fall.
08:18Let's see what happens to the balloon now.
08:20See, it's still just floating straight up.
08:22We don't want that.
08:23We want it to dip.
08:25LAUGHTER
08:28This is fun.
08:29Oh, this is fun.
08:30I like this, actually.
08:37It's still floating?
08:40I think two and a quarter marshmallows
08:43adhered to the skin of the balloon
08:45will keep it in between the flags.
08:47OK.
08:48You happy with that?
08:49Yeah, I'm happy to release.
08:51Anything you'd like to do in the next four minutes?
08:53Yeah, eat some goddamn marshmallows.
08:59You better believe I'm going to start cranking my hog
09:02if that stays in between the flags.
09:04That's what this is for, right?
09:06How much now?
09:0712 seconds.
09:08Oh, that's quite soon.
09:09Yeah.
09:10Any last words?
09:12Come on.
09:16Well, it's attached to the claw but the balloon isn't
09:19so I feel like I'm winning in a really big way.
09:21Oh.
09:23No, that's not good at all.
09:29That wasn't good at all.
09:38That could have went better.
09:44Josh, do you feel better having seen Lloyd's effort?
09:47I watched that and I thought,
09:48I need to learn to believe in myself
09:50because sometimes things aren't as terrible as Lloyd.
09:57Welcome to my life.
10:01So, Lloyd, you went with two and a half marshmallows.
10:04If you had your time back, how many would you put on?
10:06Well, I went with two and a quarter.
10:08Oh.
10:09But two and a half sounds good.
10:12There are lots of tusks on this series
10:14where I think, I'm so glad that's over
10:17and I never, ever would like to think about it ever again.
10:21I'd be well up for doing that for a full day.
10:27Josh's balloon remained within the flags for 17.06 seconds.
10:31That's gorgeous!
10:35Lloyd's balloon stayed between the flags for 1.24 seconds.
10:43Hey, you at home watching.
10:44Yeah, you.
10:45Sorry, but you've got a big chunk of food in your teeth.
10:48It's spinach or something. It's gross!
10:51We'll take a break and you go and get a toothpick
10:53and we'll see you after this.
11:06Welcome back to Taskmaster.
11:08We've just been doing a bit of television business stuff.
11:10All perfectly normal.
11:12Fill them in, please, clap man.
11:16Our contestants have eight minutes
11:17to do whatever they want to a helium balloon
11:19before it is released by the claw.
11:21They have to make it stay between the flags
11:23for as long as possible.
11:24So far, Josh has managed to make it hover for 17 seconds
11:27and Lloyd also did the task.
11:32Next up, it's him and her trying to Hindenburg.
11:35Here's Ann and Will.
11:37I mean, obviously the temptation is to suck the helium out of it and...
11:42just talk like a chipmunk.
11:44Obviously.
11:45But I won't do that.
11:46If it was being held between two things,
11:48would you consider that hovering
11:50or would it be being held between two things?
11:52Do you think that would be hovering?
11:53I don't know.
11:54What's the definition of a hover?
11:56Up to the Taskmaster, I guess.
11:58That guy.
12:04Do you know what I mean?
12:05How many minutes do I have left, Tom?
12:06Two minutes left.
12:07I'm just going to load this up, I think, with a bit more...
12:13No, maybe not.
12:14Maybe that will balance out the rise.
12:1640 seconds.
12:17I'm going to...
12:19tape this.
12:20Oh, f***!
12:23That's it, Tom.
12:25Boom.
12:27Well, it's hovering.
12:35I win.
12:36It's hovering.
12:37You feel good about this?
12:38I feel really good.
12:39You've locked into quite an effective strategy here.
12:41This is some of the best hovering I've seen.
12:44Can I touch it?
12:45No.
12:48Right.
12:49Before the balloon is released, you may not remove it from the crane.
12:51Now, did I remove it from the crane?
12:53Yeah.
12:54Let's do what we're all here to do.
13:01What a great task.
13:02Absolutely loved it.
13:03And I think it's one of your...
13:05I think it's one of the best ones in the show so far.
13:07What would you agree with that, Tom?
13:09I'm really being mocked by the fact that,
13:11well, this is hovering in front of me.
13:13This is some of the greatest hovering of all time.
13:16And I'm going to get nothing for this.
13:18I should be winning.
13:19Look at this.
13:20It's perfect.
13:24Thanks, Phil.
13:26Do you think I won that one?
13:28You don't think I won that one?
13:31You disqualified yourself.
13:32Well, thanks so much for having me.
13:34Oh, wonderful marshmallows.
13:36They were sensation.
13:37Is this still the helium?
13:38I don't think so.
13:45OK, so after Tom releases the balloon,
13:47you may not touch the balloon.
13:49Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
13:50So why did you touch the balloon?
13:52I just keep, like, undercutting myself, don't I?
13:54Like, I actually do a good job and then go,
13:56oh, let me see if I can wreck it.
13:59Can I say a theory?
14:00Yes.
14:01I think you wanted to talk like a chipmunk.
14:03I did.
14:04I can't...
14:05Perhaps consider for a moment that I am a comedian
14:08and there's a helium balloon.
14:10Like, I know we're on a show and it's a competition,
14:13but at the end of the day, I'm very, like, honest to my craft.
14:19I have to do the comedy that's in front of me.
14:22So before the balloon is released,
14:24you may not remove it from the crane.
14:26So what actually happened?
14:27I didn't really see.
14:28It came out when I was...
14:29Piddling.
14:30..piddling with it.
14:31And then you got to see just how beautifully it hovered
14:33after you failed.
14:34Honestly, the best thing I did on the entire show.
14:38Normally, if you're disqualified from something,
14:41you just leave in shame.
14:43But I couldn't look away from how well I'd done.
14:46It was, like, perfectly weighted.
14:48It was in the middle.
14:49It's probably still there.
14:51OK, one floater left.
14:53Will she sink or swim?
14:55Or stay in the lab and do the task well or poorly?
14:57It's Jenny Tian.
15:00This might be a really dumb question,
15:02but can't I just, like, tie the string to, like, a chair or something
15:05and that would still count as fine?
15:07All the information you need is in the task.
15:12Now, I've just got to not mess this up.
15:16I'm really quite good about this.
15:21What are you thinking?
15:22I'm thinking I'm really, really quite smart.
15:25Oh, really?
15:26Maybe this task is too simple.
15:33Well, that's looking pretty good to me.
15:37All right.
15:38Anyone want some marshmallow?
15:40Do you like the pink ones better or the white ones better?
15:42They're the same to me.
15:43But, like, it's got a flavour.
15:45Marshmallow?
15:46Marshmallow's not a flavour, it's an object.
15:48You don't think these taste the same?
15:50I don't.
15:51I mean, sorry.
15:52Wait.
15:53You think these taste the same?
15:55How are you failing as you're succeeding?
15:59This is your best task yet?
16:02Soak it in.
16:08So, Jenny, you showed a genuine moment of out-of-the-box thinking
16:12followed by,
16:13Marshmallow's not a flavour, it's an object.
16:16I mean, I'm not going to lie.
16:18I just thought this task was so easy.
16:22I was like, this isn't going to air because it's so easy.
16:25Everyone's obviously figured this out
16:29because it's so easy.
16:31I was like, there's got to be more to it.
16:34So then, yeah, I just started offering Tom marshmallows
16:38and doing other things
16:39because, frankly, I got bored waiting for it as well.
16:42It also does explain why Jenny came into my dressing room
16:45the other night and said,
16:46do you think there's a difference between pink marshmallows
16:48and white marshmallows?
16:50Well, what are the scores?
16:51Well, we left Jenny's balloon there overnight.
16:54It was hovering for 18 hours and 21 minutes.
16:57Oh, my God.
17:02So what are the points for the task?
17:04Well, Will and Ann were DQed, so they get zero.
17:06Lloyd gets three, Josh four,
17:07and Jenny takes the task with five points.
17:12Alright, and what about the episode scores so far?
17:15Well, with all the buoyancy of a beautiful red balloon,
17:17Jenny has floated to the top with eight points.
17:21OK.
17:22Give me another of your little goodies there, boy.
17:25It's our final team task of the season.
17:40Hello. Hi.
17:41Oh.
17:42What do you think about this choice?
17:43You look different.
17:44Let's have Tom. Let's have Tom have a look.
17:47Whoa!
17:49He looks dumb!
17:50Oh, my God, it's a working camera!
17:53And it's...it's already recording.
17:56Oh. Oh, OK.
17:58This is fun.
18:00Create an authentic and heartwarming family home video.
18:05Create an authentic and dysfunctional family home video.
18:08You must film the video on this camera.
18:10Most authentic family wins.
18:12You have 30 minutes. Your time starts now.
18:15We need to be, like, a family unit, the three of us.
18:18I think so. I think so.
18:19Dysfunctional family is the key word here.
18:22Someone flies back from overseas for a family reunion.
18:25They were fighting in the military.
18:27Oh, whoa!
18:29I think Mummy's Got A Secret.
18:34OK, Mummy's Got A Secret.
18:38And you've set up some genuine intrigue with Mummy's Got A Secret.
18:43Did you, when they read the task and they read this first
18:45and it said heartwarming family,
18:46did you think me and you had both f***ed it again?
18:48Yes. I thought you had reading problems.
18:50I thought they read it and I thought,
18:51oh, no, me and Anne did dysfunctional.
18:53Just to be clear, we want a heartwarming family story
18:55and that's what we're going to get from the discount Wiggles
18:58and we're also going to get a dysfunctional family story
19:00from the premium economy hoolie-doolies.
19:03But what I'm judging you by is how authentic they are.
19:06Who's up first?
19:07Let's begin with our heartwarming family.
19:09Here's Mother Jenny, Father Will and their beloved child Lloyd.
19:15Another Christmas without Oscar.
19:17Bloody Christmas Day, love. Oh, my God.
19:19Bloody Merry, bloody Christmas.
19:21It's been years and years since we've seen our son Lloyd.
19:24I just, I miss him so much, darling.
19:26I don't know what my life is without him.
19:29Admit it, darling. He's probably, he's probably dead.
19:32He's probably bloody dead.
19:34I didn't even get to hug him once in our entire lives.
19:39I never got to hug him.
19:40You don't bloody hug boys, love.
19:42I've always told you this.
19:43You feed them bloody meatballs and turnips
19:46and they grow up to be proper bloody men.
19:48You know, I don't know where you are in the world, my son.
19:51I just, I miss you so dearly
19:53and I just, I just, I wish you were home
19:56and I wish I could give you a hug.
19:59Darling, do you want to record a message for Lloyd as well?
20:03No, I don't bloody want to record a bloody message for Lloyd.
20:06Darling, you have to record...
20:08Mum.
20:09Dad.
20:11Private Lloyd reporting for family reunion Christmas.
20:16Oh, my God.
20:17Oh, my God.
20:19Oh, son.
20:21Son, I'm making bloody Christmas meatballs and turnips.
20:27It's your bloody favourite, son.
20:29It's my favourite. You've made it.
20:31And I feel, I feel so emotional.
20:34I've been overseas on top secret duties for so long.
20:37What have you been doing?
20:39What have you been doing?
20:41I've been overseas on top secret duties for so long.
20:44What have you been doing?
20:46Well, I can't tell you everything.
20:48Tell us.
20:49Some of it is classified.
20:50Tell us what you've been doing.
20:51Your parents, you can tell us anything, my boy.
20:53Tell us.
20:54But, you know, Osama bin Laden.
20:56Yeah, of course.
20:59Oh, you did that.
21:01That was all me.
21:02You went and...
21:03I was part of the SEAL team.
21:07Oh, my God.
21:09Yeah.
21:10My boy.
21:11I would not be more proud of my son.
21:13Keep it under your heart, though, because it's classified.
21:16Oh, my goodness.
21:18Son.
21:19Son.
21:20I am so...
21:23I'm so...
21:24Come here.
21:25I'm so proud of you.
21:27Oh, thank you.
21:29We couldn't have hoped for a better person to kill Osama bin Laden.
21:33That's the first time Dad has touched me not in violence.
21:38Oh, my God.
21:46Lloyd, why did you want to make the story heartwarming
21:49by evoking the memory of 9-11 by mentioning Osama bin Laden?
21:54Was it necessary to drag that into a comedy show?
21:57The narrative was the father and the son, they'd never hugged.
22:00That was the story.
22:01So we were going to have this authentic Christmas reunion.
22:04They were going to hug for the first time
22:06and Lloyd just thought the thing that might spur that hug
22:09would be finding out that your son had murdered Osama bin Laden.
22:13The hug that your character, Will, gave Lloyd,
22:16is that the hug that you would like to receive from your own father?
22:19Yes, and that's why it was so authentic, Tom.
22:22What do you think he might be thinking?
22:24He's probably watching now.
22:25He's not.
22:29So, Jenny, did you find it hard,
22:31because you make a lot of videos on TikTok,
22:33was it difficult making something that long and in landscape mode?
22:38I was, like, seeing it and then I saw the red button
22:41and then the graininess and I was like,
22:42oh, my God, it looks exactly like one of those TikTok filters.
22:49Alright, time for a short break.
22:50Go give your boy a hug, would you?
22:52It's not that hard. See you soon.
23:03Welcome back to Taskmaster,
23:04where we've all been having a little itch on Jenny's ex-mum.
23:09What else is happening?
23:10We're watching authentic family videos.
23:13So far, we've seen a heartwarming tribute to a soldier's return
23:16after slaying Osama bin Laden.
23:18Next up, it's the dysfunctional family.
23:20It's mother Anne and her only son, Josh.
23:25The thing is, it's just give me two more days
23:29and we can run away together.
23:31I know you're my boss and also my son's best friend's father,
23:35but I love you.
23:38I can't stay with Bruce. I can't.
23:43That time him and Josh auditioned for Australian Idol
23:47was the worst day of my life, the humiliation.
23:52I've never recovered.
23:53What? Mum!
23:55Oh, here she goes. Look at her. Look at her.
23:57Josh! Look at her!
23:58Josh, sweetie!
23:59Tell them what you said.
24:00No. Australian Idol, you were wonderful.
24:04You were the best one there.
24:06I don't know why they didn't put you through, Josh.
24:08It's going to go viral.
24:09Yeah.
24:10Give me the camera, sweetheart.
24:12No.
24:13Give mummy the camera.
24:14No.
24:15Give mummy the camera.
24:17Give mummy the camera!

25:16Ah!
25:17Ah!
25:18Ah!
25:19Ah!
25:20Ah!
25:21It's just a lot to take in.
25:22I like the Blair Witch vibes.
25:23secret was it that you actually think your son was not a good singer the
25:27murder or the affair the affair was the main secret yeah but yes that also I
25:32think he's not a good singer and then obviously yes I've killed him wait you
25:36think that the affair is a worse secret than murdering me Australia's sweetheart
25:45yes yeah what do you think about my tactic of mostly just putting an
25:50admins in it oh less Josh is always more enjoyable for me I thought the
25:55performance and was very authentic thank you I have wanted to kill people before
26:01feels like you didn't need to go too deep to find that emotion no yeah I've
26:05definitely got a violent streak and and I'd like to get it out that was fun I
26:11really enjoyed doing that yeah so I have to give out some scores you do it's
26:15pretty easy I mean I just love the chaotic energy of the premium economy
26:19hoolie doolies I believed in and performance are you saying you don't
26:25think I could kill Osama bin Laden no I think the hug at the end was very
26:30authentic but that was mostly due to the empty hole in the middle of Will
26:33Anderson's body that you're trying to fill well you could fill it with some
26:37points I must say they were very close I think they were both great films so
26:46it's going to be 5 5 4 4 4 lovely okay let's have another task okay for this
26:54next one we're off to the pub or as I once heard the taskmaster refer to it
26:57under his breath
27:00hello hi Josh what we got here then hello is that an accent
27:17yeah cockney British I think what have we got here then a few chips and a bit
27:21of a beer mm-hmm Wow win the pub quiz Tom will ask 10 questions you must write
27:29down each answer on your whiteboard within 30 seconds of Tom asking no
27:34phones the time starts when Tom asks his first question
27:40it's a bit warmer than I'd like but that's okay bit colder than I like so
27:46you know what between ask away my friend all right well win a pub quiz sounds
27:56pretty easy I guess it's actually was Lloyd missing yeah we didn't say Lloyd
28:01didn't say Lloyd in that one yeah maybe it would help to see the task that Lloyd
28:05was given write the pub quiz for the other comedians your quiz must have 10
28:14questions your quiz questions may not include any contestants name Tom will
28:18give your quiz to the other four contestants Will Anderson must win the
28:22quiz Jenny Tian must come second Josh Thomas must come third Anne Edmonds must
28:28lose the quiz I mean that would be straightforward if they end up in that
28:33order you will get five points and they will get zero if they come in any other
28:36order they will get three points and you will get zero you have ten minutes your
28:40time starts now
28:43so they all have to win the quiz in that order yep and then Lloyd will get
28:52five but if it's in any other order the others get three and Lloyd gets nothing
28:57so it's all or nothing with this particular order for Lloyd I feel like
29:01this task is impossible for me to win and not knowing Jenny very well at all
29:07and not knowing Josh well at all and like not knowing on that well okay well
29:17I think we just need to see this one answering quiz questions as written by
29:21Lloyd Langford here are will Jenny Josh and Anne ready for your first question
29:25yeah yes Tom which instrument did Miles Davis play I'm gonna go with piano okay
29:31trumpet and wouldn't do that I don't reckon sax
29:36Will Anderson must win the quiz what does he know about I know he lives
29:41question two what day of the week is the mullum bimby market on there's some
29:47Saturday markets as well but mostly it's on a Friday oh he knows Tom Gleeson
29:52alright what is Tom Gleeson's wife's name I've met her this is gonna be so
30:00rude Ellie that's right I really like her I can see her face you can see her
30:05she's a really nice person what an awful question what is Tom Gleeson's waist
30:12size because we all knows about their mates right you try on each other's
30:16trousers messing around so I'm gonna say he's a 34 inch waist okay
30:23right who was the most streamed artist on Spotify in 2023 I can't
30:32simultaneously come up with a question that will is going to know Taylor Swift
30:36and isn't Jenny sort of does Taylor Swift and Josh might Taylor Swift and
30:42what decade was the Sydney Opera House built 1920s who directed the Godfather
30:49Francis Ford Coppola I know something see what are the ingredients for Moscow
30:53meal vodka ginger beer and lime what did Steve Jobs die of I don't have a clue
31:01pancreatic cancer disease I got one question left but we'll make it an
31:08interesting one on 9-11 which of the planned targets wasn't hit Pentagon they
31:16Google it there was definitely one that wasn't hit they got it oh they did yeah
31:21fair play your time's running out it's too wishy-washy a question isn't it
31:26can't change it now final question on 9-11 which of the planned are you sure
31:31on 9-11 no no baby I'm gonna stop you right there we don't need to do this on
31:369-11 which of the planned targets wasn't hit did you come up with this if I was
31:41planning to take down America I would have been the one you would do so I'm
31:45gonna say President Bush stop judging me I can see you judging me it's a man what
31:52could really shake America up you know at that time but they didn't thank you
32:01Tom Lloyd why do you keep dragging 9-11 into this comedy show you keep dragging
32:13that misery right into the center of this light-hearted show tell me the
32:17theories you're always saying at home I wish I could say that those last two
32:26tasks were filmed close together and it was just in my mind but that isn't true
32:32but what I love is like the finally the revelation of what the theme of the
32:38questions was because on the day I was like who came up with this so did Lloyd
32:49achieve his goal no I know I didn't so just a reminder of the rankings were
32:55looking for so we were looking for will to win Jenny to come second just come
32:59third and Anne to come Lloyd back yourself like Isis okay so what order
33:10did they actually get Jenny got two questions correct Will and Anne both got
33:15four questions correct and Josh was the winner of the quiz with five points so
33:22what are the scores Lloyd was unsuccessful so that means three points
33:25for Anne Jenny Josh and well see if you can guess how many times and tries to
33:35casually drop my wife's actual name into conversation over the next five minutes
33:41welcome back to taskmaster and we're nearly at the end of our penultimate
33:55episode of season two and I still won't let this joker next to me look me in the
33:59eye nor should you call us academics because we're about to engage in a peer
34:04review
34:18hi Jenny hey Tom oh hello hi Lloyd hello what are you doing in the lurking around
34:25the corridors I think there's something in your locker I didn't even know I had
34:30a locker here was that supposed to be scary
34:43you that's a bit wrong isn't it make a surprising appearance most surprising
34:52appearance wins you have until the studio record of episode 9 your time
34:57starts now where up to you what do you mean I've got like days okay weeks
35:08someone to think about yeah thanks Lloyd thank you
35:15Jenny I think it's a special skill to be confused by such a simple task is it
35:21that simple yeah I don't think it was wait surely other people were confused
35:26no we just we literally just watch footage of all of them not being
35:31confused even me it was just a bit of humble homework wasn't it a bit of a
35:37homework task that's right it's up to them where or when they appear and how
35:40they capture that appearance okay who's first he may be a catch but can he catch
35:44us off guard it's Josh Thomas I could do it down when she knows this challenge I
35:48could be in there could you fit in there
36:04it doesn't feel good oh hi Tom what are you doing in the lurking around the
36:11corridor something in your locker oh that's a bit wrong isn't it that's
36:21surprising it was a bit but did you expect me to have more of a reaction
36:24than that maybe do you want me to do it again
36:28again
36:36that was good really terrified me
36:44that's right um I my finger was bleeding I showed you after I was in the locker
36:50looking I was holding the door and I and my I was watching blood come out of my
36:54finger and then she said should I do it again I thought I'm not gonna make it
37:00yeah I think it was very effective surprise I was very surprised that you
37:05could fit in there yeah they're very small lockers I mean it got a great
37:08result though so you must be happy with that I'm happy yeah that's a good nice
37:12solid start another please hopefully she doesn't knock her own socks off because
37:18not wearing socks can exacerbate eczema it's Jenny Tian okay so I am currently
37:23dressed as Lloyd Langford so I'm currently in an Edmonds field outfit
37:30and I'm Welsh and I'm gonna give him a surprise appearance I am currently in
37:36Josh Thomas's outfit and I'm gonna surprise him I am now in Will Anderson's
37:43outfit and I'm gonna surprise him he's eaten like half the marshmallows in this
38:13Oh hello, how are you?
38:21Why are you dressing like me?
38:25You look good in that
38:27That's very naughty
38:29Are you in my outfit? Jenny, where did you get it from?
38:31You're a psycho
38:33Get out of here
38:35This is for the TikTok
38:37No, it's for episode 9
38:39Surprise appearance
38:41This show
38:47Did it feel good to finally film something properly?
38:51Yeah
38:53You feel like you're back to normal now?
38:55Yeah, 100% yes
38:57Okay, well I think that was pretty effective
38:59Got some great frights there, who's next?
39:01Will she take us aback or bring herself to the front?
39:03It's Anne Edmonds
39:05A human behaviour expert says it's one of the biggest signs you're micro-cheating on your partner
39:09She says hiding interactions with a colleague is also a red flag
39:13because it can erode trust in your personal relationships
39:17This behaviour expert, obviously never been asked for an after work drink
39:19That's what's happened here
39:21So the extra froth on my latte, that means nothing
39:25That's from the barista
39:27You might be having a micro-relationship with the barista
39:31I must admit for a while there I was thinking, why are you making me watch the project?
39:39It's a wonderful show on this very network
39:43Um, no, um
39:47Wait, did that go to air?
39:49Yeah
39:51Did people see it when it went live to air?
39:53No, I don't think so, we missed it
39:55Nobody messaged you or anything?
39:57No, just, that's
39:59I don't have ratings
40:01Okay, one more
40:03Will this stunner have a shocker?
40:05Or will he stun and shock us?
40:07It's Lloyd Lankford
40:09Oh
40:31So that was at the Adelaide Fringe
40:33I'd just come off stage
40:35You gave me a bit of a fright
40:37I'd been crouched down in that box that I found out was full of mouse shit
40:43Um, with an air horn and a wig on
40:47And then Tommy Little was backstage and was like
40:49Take your shirt off
40:53Which by the way is what Tommy Little says to everyone backstage
40:59It's a bit tricky for me, now it's hard to judge
41:01Because for me that was a visceral reaction
41:03I thought I was about to die, I thought someone was going to jump up
41:05And stab me and as I was dying
41:07Just whisper into my ear
41:09You're not Greg Davies
41:11Oh you're not?
41:13Oh I've been killed by a nerd
41:15What's Reddit going to think?
41:19Okay, well we've got one more surprising appearance still to come
41:21But who will it be?
41:23I can't think of something that would be easier to deduce
41:27Come back after these advertisements to find out
41:36Hello, welcome back to Taskmaster
41:40Lester Ton, catch the people up
41:42Our comedians had more than a month to make a surprising appearance
41:45So far, Josh climbed out of a locker
41:47Ann went on the project
41:49Jenny did some TikTok-y stuff
41:51And Lloyd got in a dumpster
41:53We have one last comedian left
41:55And when we asked him before the show where his surprising appearance footage was
41:58He said he'd already sent it
42:00And we just needed to take a closer look
42:02So let's take a closer look
42:04Here is Will Anderson
42:22I could be in there
42:24Could you fit in there?
42:32Behold!
42:48So how did you get yourself into all those positions?
42:51Well, Jenny's surprised to me
42:53It only happened today
42:55So luckily I was already in that one
42:57So your justification was you were in that one?
42:59Yeah, that was fine
43:01But the rest of them was a lot of planning
43:04One of them I had to travel back in time for
43:07Well, I have to score these, don't I?
43:08You do
43:09Most surprising wins
43:11Well, I found Josh's the least surprising
43:13Just because he jumped out of a locker
43:15He was standing at when you handed out the task
43:17Two points to Lloyd
43:19Because I didn't find watching it surprising
43:21Because I knew what was going to happen
43:26I was like, here we go
43:28Ann's going to get three points
43:31But the fact that I keep watching the project was even more surprising
43:35Four points to Jenny
43:36Mostly because it's going to be a great TikTok video
43:38That's going to go viral
43:40And put this show on the map
43:42But five points to Will Anderson
43:44Because I was genuinely surprised at the effort he went to
43:50OK, now how are those episode scores going?
43:53Continuing to appear at the top
43:55It's Jenny in the lead on 19 points
43:58All right, get up on that stage for our final task of the show
44:07All right, we've got some thongs and some barbecues
44:09This looks like some good old ochre fun
44:12Who's reading the task?
44:13Lloyd, if I could ask you to read this
44:15Toss the most thongs with the tongs onto your barbecue
44:19If at any point a golden thong is tossed with tongs onto another barbecue
44:25All the thongs on that barbecue will be cleared
44:28If you touch a thong with your hand at any point
44:31You are disqualified
44:33All tossing must be done from your spot
44:35And you may not move your spot or your barbecue
44:39Especially you, Ann
44:42Most thongs remaining on a barbecue after 150 seconds wins
44:46Your time starts now
44:56Whoa!
45:03Whoa!
45:06Whoa!
45:16Whoa!
45:22Wait!
45:23Wait!
45:25Wait!
45:26What?
45:35Can I get my, can I get these from here?
45:37Can I get these?
45:39Yes, yes
45:50Josh has been disqualified
45:51Why?
45:53You're touching them with your hands
45:55I thought we weren't allowed to touch them when we threw them
46:0630 seconds remaining
46:1410
46:159
46:168
46:177
46:186
46:195
46:204
46:213
46:222
46:231
46:30Alright, time for a break
46:32We'll see you soon with the final scores
46:42Welcome back, did you miss us?
46:44Alright, Squire, what's happening?
46:45Well, we were just throwing some thongs with some tongs onto some barbecues
46:49And we're about to find out how each of our contestants did
46:52We know how one of our contestants did
46:55Thanks guys, thank you
46:57Okay, so how many thongs were thrown?
46:59So I can confirm Josh had 16 thongs but he touched way more so that's irrelevant
47:04Will had 5 thongs on his barbecue
47:07Ann, Lloyd and Jenny all had 9 thongs on their barbecue
47:12Wow
47:14Which means they each get 5 points, Will gets 2 and 0 for Josh
47:19But what does that mean if we don't know our episode winner? Tell us
47:23Turning Will into Ill by picking up the W this episode, it's Jenny Tian on 24 points
47:29Alright, congratulations Jenny
47:32Go back up on stage and get ready to appear excited to get your crack
47:37But what does that do to our scores overall for the whole season?
47:41Well Josh, Jenny and Will are trailing but out in front there's going to be an interesting ride home
47:45Lloyd is on 142 points, Ann is out in front with 144
47:54That's it for our second to last episode of our season
47:57Where, as always, we have learnt some things
48:00We learnt Mummy's secret and it was a doozy
48:03Lloyd has zero remorse when it comes to getting a laugh out of a historical tragedy
48:09But most of all we learnt that Jenny was the winner of our episode
48:12Join us again next week for our final episode
48:15Goodnight
48:31Welcome to the grand finale of Taskmaster Australia Season 2
48:36By the end of this show we will have a series champion
48:39You don't even have a dad
48:41I'm not going to hurt you
48:42I'm working so hard
48:43Is he Swedish?
48:45I feel despondent
48:46I've got to go big
48:47There we go
48:51What on earth was that?
