    In this Broadcast Award-winning, BAFTA and Emmy Award-nominated entertainment show, Taskmaster tyrant Greg Davies (Man Down, Cuckoo), with the help of his loyal assistant Alex Horne (The Horne Section and the show’s creator), sets out to test the wiles, wit and wisdom of five hyper-competitive comedians.
    Comedians that have risked life, limb, and dignity in the hope of making the Taskmaster proud so far include: Frank Skinner (The Frank Skinner Show), Mel Giedroyc (The Great British Bake Off), Romesh Ranganathan (Asian Provocateur), Hugh Dennis (Outnumbered), Sally Phillips (Bridget Jones’ Diary), Rose Matafeo (Edinburgh Comedy Award Winner 2018), and Russell Howard (The Russell Howard Hour). Unaware of what awaits them in each wax-sealed envelope, only one competitor can become the victorious owner of His Royal Task-ness’ golden head and be crowned the next Taskmaster Champion.

      The band "Diverse Stripes", Consisting of Jack Brown, a slacker with ADHD, and his wife's transgender sister and best friend Mark, a woman trying to impress long jump judge Rosalind, are trying to make it big in the music industry,
      They're endeavours prove fruitless however as they must pay rent for their landlord Alan, played by Greg Davis.
      Will Jack Brown and Mark be able to pay rent this month and serve Rosalind beans on toast? Or will they fear the wrath of Alan.

      Definition of wholesome
      1: promoting health or well-being of mind or spirit
      2: promoting health of body
      3a: sound in body, mind, or morals
      b: having the simple health or vigor of normal domesticity _[what does this even mean lol]_
      4a: based on well-grounded fear : PRUDENT -- "a wholesome respect for the law"
      b: SAFE -- "it wouldn't be wholesome for you to go down there"- Mark Twain
      So which one of these are you saying that the song is? Let me guess, promoting well-being of mind...

With both of them being creative folk, and a wealth of information to pull from (not to mention - no shade to Nish and Mark, but the song isn't very complicated...) and I definitely believe they could pull it off. It's a lovely little tune :)

    As for my favorite Nish moment, it's when he kicks the water cooler in slo-mo and it still looks like crap. But because of how dire Aisling and Mark's attempts were, and Bob's apple trick having already been old hat to Greg, Greg winds up saying, "This is going to amaze you . . . I, thought, you know . . . that was SO shit that I think people WILL be talking about it, so Kumar, through his own shit-ness, has come second for the first time."
    Especially when paired with Nish's look of delightful incredulity, it just makes it my favorite Nish moment.

    "I'm Always seeing you [open brackets] doing cool stuff [close brackets]" is the best Nish moment of his series run. But I especially love his attempt at getting the coconut as far from the house as possible as his defining comic genius. Just throws, hits the mast, then drops to his feet as he walks away with shame! That and Alex's quip at the end. "Could've thrown again. Back inside."

    This was probably my fav series of Taskmaster though tbh

    Nish was good at being terrible at everything which was so funny. Looking forward to the new series when it's safe to do so. Taskmaster is brilliant.

    While all of these were wonderful moments, I was just WAITING for the coconut task. The ending had me rolling all over my bed laughing in the middle of the night when I first saw it.

    The song Nish and Mark made was truly something special. I would hire them to write a song about me anyday

    That damn song is my favorite thing from the entire series. Also I feel like Nish’s sliced bread victory and his celebration with Mark doesn’t get enough attention.

    Genuinely a good song. I'd listen to it in the car kind of thing

    I love that his victory in the boat task wasn't seen as a surprise, given it happened right before the basketball task that essentially established him as the loser of the series

    They should submit their song on spotify so I can listen to it there :D
