- In one of Greg Davies' most stomach-turning tasks, celebrity guests must drink ALL the vinegar...but does that mean downing all of the shots?
Adrian Chiles, Claudia Winkleman, Jonnie Peacock MBE, Lady Leshurr, and Baroness Sayeeda Warsi take turns identifying which one 1 out of 100 is the vinegar, leading to some frustrating close calls.

Might be the first task I’ve heard Alex directly advise somebody to stop for their health lmao
and then Greg Davies sounded so disappointed with Alex afterwards.
Having the intuition to find the hidden 85s but not the hand eye coordination to pick up the cup is some classic nerd shit that I would definitely do
The best part about this comment is that he’s a Paralympic gold medalist.
I’m so disappointed no one dumped all the shots into a fishbowl and drank the whole thing.
Plot twist, put it all in a fish bowl, and you've no longer got any vinegar.
But without moving the fishbowl.
That's a Rhod move
@@thedocilefish But drinking from one large vessel is faster than drinking from many small vessels. You could also presumably pick up multiple at a time and chuck them in the bowl. It would depend on where the vinegar is and where you start. Statistically, you would have to drink an average of half of the total shots one at a time. If, however, you took two in each hand to pour into the bowl you'd essentially have them all in the bowl in the time it would take to drink a quarter of the shots. Now you chug the bowl which would depend on your chugging ability.
I'd say for the average person, it would still be faster to go one-by-one, but for someone who isn't bothered by foul tastes and can chug reasonably well, the bowl method might be faster. Definitely a Rhod move.
@@thedocilefish
I did a count, there's 12x18 = 216 shot glasses
They look like 25ml shots. So 5400ml.
About 9.5 Pints.
You're not chugging that.
That cut between Johnny and Adrian with the 3D glasses was great. The Taskmaster editors are always on point.
No they're not. They are on point some of the times. This was one of them.

6:03 - I LOVE that Claudia yelled in the studio when Jonnie found the trick, and they left the audio in.
They didn't leave it in, they added it in post. ;)
"They left the audio in". 😆
@UpwardsDaydream Grow up, you lemon.
I’m clearly a psychopath because my first thought was to mix it all together and down it all as fast as possible.
No, same! I don't care how vile it is, it's going down.
Same here
That probably would be faster than 8+ minutes.
Might be faster but would also probably end you in hospital faster.
Efficiency
The highlight was Johnnie slowly walking in with the straw
He should get a bonus point for effort!
I've never seen something so evil. The only thing worse would be making them all vinegar.
Oops, all vinegar
Make all but one of them vinegar and have the task be to drink the one water. Wouldn't be able to smell the difference between them.
"Oooo this is elderflower, ill have it anyway"
Smart girl. Who wouldn't have something delicious during the hunt for something disgusting?
I instantly thought there was no vinegar. I would've taken the gamble and yelled that I drank it all at the beginning.
Same
better yet, sniff all the samples, there's a chance that only couple might be vinegar.
Me too. Haha
And you instantly would have lost. But that sure would make for great TV!
@@Trollololololful honestly, if the option is between looking like a cocky dickhead and being wrong or looking like a total fool, drinking a shit ton of nasty liquids, and then still probably being wrong... Probably would've had my scene split from the rest at least
is it me or does johnny look like a different person
edit: nevermind alan davies stood in for him since he was sick for studio recording
I needed this comment. I was so confused lol
Thank you thought I'd accidentally tripped
I thought I was going mad, so thanks a lot for this😂
Okay yes I was like who is that lmao
Thank you so much for this! Literally came to the comments and you were the only person who'd said something.
This lineup was too good to only be for the new year's special
Really? Who the fuck r they? The guests get worse every season
@@albryan1705 Pretty sure that's your problem, not the show's.
@@albryan1705 how do you not know any of these guests? Do you live under a rock?
@@tacocatt6808 they may not watch British TV
@@EightThreeEight did I say it was the shows fault, just said they get worse and if u look back and the cast of every season u can't argue
the straw was next level commitment
My immediate thought from how it's worded is shout I've drunk all the vinegar and don't drink any.
I was waiting for one of them to ask, "Witch one has vinegar in it?"
I don’t understand
@@rachelcookie321 at the time there was 85 likes. Literally the number of cups
@@rachelcookie321 Often times the host will answer their questions honestly, so there is a non-zero chance that he would simply point to the correct one if asked.
Honestly, he rarely hides anything from them if they just... ask.
I would put money on Alex saying “What do you think?” or “All the information is on the task.”
Claudia was absolutely hilarious in this episode all the way through. So chaotic.
i cant imagine drinking a small amt of vingegar thru a straw. it would aerosolize and increase the surface area. the taste would be abyssmal and painful
Try it.
No need to imagine then.
@tuck shop Tried with some rice vinegar and it came through the straw way faster than I expected and soaked every part of my mouth. It really was abyssmal and painful. Got two swollen tastebuds immediately after
@@MerryRose__ Thank you for your sacrifice.
@@MerryRose__ only a homestuck would do this
the shot glasses are set out literally in a pH chart lol
Color gave it away right away
but the reds oranges purples and blues would (if accurate to the ph) not be fit for human consumption
@@tia8245 yes but I'm not sure the show would get away with murder so obviously they are using alternatives for the other chemicals, and I'm not sure how you work that out either, pH test water, ITS BLUE IDIOT
@@tia8245 straight bleach on the alkaline ones
@@tia8245 I mean, lemon juice and vinegar both at very acidic and would turn up red on the indicator.
Lady Leshurr is definitely the taskmaster special contestant that i want a full season out of, she crazy
I'd probably assume all of them are vinegar, then start chugging them one by one, then question life whether or not I should pull through since I've already started or value my health more than a challenge
Thats what 90% of the tasks are based on people making those assumptions
Straw man has my utmost respect
If there were any baking soda in the house, that would have been faster than strips. Just let a cloud of it fall down, and drink the ones that fizz the most until you get the vinegar. Potentially faster than counting.
Problem is would you be able to drink something that has both baking soda AND vinegar?? It’d taste like absolute shite
@@torakunoichi no pain no gain! :X
@@daviasdf also the rules state that you have to DRINK all the vinegar what if it gets absorbed but the bi carb soda and you can’t drink it?
@@torakunoichi you only need to sprinkle a tiny bit into the vinegar to get a reaction.
But baking soda fizzes with lemon juice too
My immediate thought was to run and get some baking soda before lightly dusting every cup and tasting only what fizzed... However I also hate vinegar and would not have drank any 🙃
They must have playtested this and took note of the least-chosen shot.
My immediate thought would be to dump them all together but going off the overhead shot I’m guessing there’s 216 which even at 1/2 oz each is a lot of fluid. I’d still get a bowl and start picking them up and quickly sniffing then dumping them all in together😂
Yeah, I'm guessing there's 7.5L there, which is about 2 gallons
Get a pail.
Put each shot in your mouth.
Spit in the pail if it isn't vineger, swallow if it is.
Yeah when Alex said didn't recommend it, I assume he meant that the producers wouldn't let you do that.
Drinking 108 oz of liquid in a short time span isn't really a great idea, even if it's water.
I would’ve sifted a little baking soda into all the cups
I love the sweet lady who started to smell firstly and just drunk to taste. ❤️
This is the epitome of “slow and steady wins the race”
Take a shot of vinegar every time they say vinegar
i've drunk all my vinegar
This is certainly one where I would like to try this challenge.
This is the one you want to try? The one were you have to drink vinegar? I would very much not like to have to drink vinegar.
@@rachelcookie321 I'd like to give it a go and drink all the nice stuff
They missed out on the opportunity to genuinely make all of them vinegar and make it a solo task, or just do the exact same thing but in an even bigger space with 5 times as many shots
If someone was dumb enough to drink a large amount of vinegar they would die
@@mohammedkhresat3798 nah I dont think you would die. Your stomach acid is stronger than vinegar is, though im sure you might feel sick and throw up
@@colinbrown7947 enough amounts of even water can kill you mate, and what does the stomach acid have to do with anything? Acid doesn’t neutralize acid
@@mohammedkhresat3798 point of the stomach acid is that I thought it wouldn't make the environment any more acidic than it already is. But I did find this online "Scaling that up to a 70-kilo human, we get an LD-50 of about 232 grams, or just over half a pound. Given that most vinegar is less than 10 percent acetic acid by volume, you’d have to toss back more than a half gallon to reach the fatal threshold. Not likely, I suppose, but some have come"
Id recon the amount of vinegar in those shots is less than half a gallon but it certainly is more dangerous than I expected
@@colinbrown7947 Vinegar is weaker than stomach acid, but pH isn't the sole factor in determining damage to the body, volume is important too. pH is just the concentration (or power) of Hydrogen in a solution, meaning a weaker acid (higher pH) can actually have more hydrogen ion transference (i.e. "damage"/molecules reacting, caused by the acid) just by having a larger volume of said acid. Meaning if you could dissolve an entire iron screw with a vial of HCl acid, then you could dilute an identical screw with watered down vinegar if you had a large enough volume of it (theoretically, ignoring other factors like rate of reaction ). Also, stomach acid is very damaging to the body when in higher quantities than it should be, or in places it shouldn't be. IIRC there are studies that show that people with acid reflux (stomach acid ejects out of the stomach and up the oesophagus) have far higher rates of things like throat cancer. And lastly, I actually ate myself into an oesophageal hernia with vinegar as a student. I told multiple gastroenterologists about how much vinegar I would drown my tasteless microwave meals in over the years (I was a poor student) and asked if that could be a contributing factor. All of them basically politely said somethin like "Yes, it's possible that that would likely have been a very large contributing factor" lmao. Took quite a long time of having a more normal diet before even weaker acids like coffee and pepsi would no longer irritate my digestive tract
Tick tock it’s shot o’clock.
Gotta get Adrian on a full series
There were 2 instructions, 1. Drink all the vinegar, 2. Get the shortest time between finishing reading the task and shouting "I've drunk all the vinegar". The second is not technically linked to the first.
Not sure if this is a joke or you actually saying that the tasks states that you have to drink the vinegar and think that people can skip that part.
Have been contemplating this for a couple of minutes now.
@@tbrsie as soon as they read the rules I thought to myself that if they were to just instantly shout out "I've drunk all the vinegar" they would have the shortest time
I think it's been established on taskmaster that if you have the shortest time but you didn't satisfy all the requirements of the task you don't get the point
@@grainassault4844 OK. But then, not knowing how much vinegar there is, you'd be wise to tick off the easy achievement.
You could have drunk the one vinegar, but continued to look for more. Only later saying you'd drunk the vinegar would be a waste of time.
Three contestants tried that - shouting the sentence and didn't drink the vinegar. They didn't receive any points.
Clearly Baroness Warsi watches @TomScott (the vinegar and trading standards 'documentary')
When I was a kid my parents had to keep the vinegar on top of the fridge to keep me from drinking it all
“it might be that multiple things are acidic”
Task master is an amazing show! I love it!
This was just a lovely challenge. Gave me some good belly laughs. Well done.
I saw the loophole immediatly lmao, I would've shouted I drank all the vinegar right away just to see if it works
But there was vinegar so you would have failed
@@gabrielbrown1262 but then @Maizen wouldn't be sick.
You need to drink the vinegar, and your time stops when you shout “I drank all the vinegar.” You shout, your time stops, and then you find the vinegar at your leisure.
@@isupor The task might not explicitly state that you have to drink the vinegar before stopping the time, but it also doesn't expicitly state that your time is what will be used to determine who's fastest. Certainly it wouldn't make sense to use your time to determine how fast you were at completing the task when they know your time was stopped well before finishing it.
@@isupor I mean typically once your time ends the challenge ends. It may not be explicitly stated in every single challenge but that's just how it always is. The challenge consists of your ability to complete the task within the time allotted for the task.
100% I would have just started downing shots while keeping eye contact with Alex.
I'm surprised nobody looked for baking soda in the kitchen, but maybe they weren't allowed to leave the room - I woulda just sprinkled a bit in and then drank all the ones that reacted.
06:48
Oh that's smart
I believe the baking soda would still react with fruit juice due to its acidity
@@grainassault4844 Hmm, I wouldn't have thought so, but you may be right (especially if it was lemonade or something)
Have you ever mixed baking soda and vinegar? It smells fucking awful, I really wouldn’t wanna drink it 😂
I probably would've chugged everything.
I'd like to believe I would've figured it out, but I probably would've just leisurely drank everything.
I can only presume that you're hoping to get in on the UK grime scene!
I woulda had Alex help me pour all the shots into a bucket and I would drank it all in one swig.
I love lady leshurr, haven’t listened to her in years, but I should start again,
her music is so good!!
Alan's hoodie is outstanding
I just realized that they're organized from least to most acidic on the table.
After tasting a few I would've thought there to be not vinegar on the table, but under the table or somewhere else.
At the beginning I was like "is that a typical Polish party with 200 shots of vodka?"
I think I would have assumed that none of there were vinegar and that the vinegar was out in the kitchen and looked there.
If they could find any, they could use baking soda and sprinkle it over all the cups. Any cup with vinegar should start to fizz from the reaction. But that only works if they had some lying around nearby
It would fizz in any acidic liquid, including apple juice.
Surely they can't have run out of comedians by this series.
This was a special where they don't use comedians.
New years one off special, theyve done it each yeah since joining channel 4
Even in the first series they couldn't get 5 comedians. Josh Widdicombe was there, after all.
God i love this show I wish it came on pbs
Too good for pbs. :(
this is peak television
I love these kinds of shows
My first thought was just shouting it right away to test if it works.
I thought I'd seen all of the taskmaster shows!
Id like to see the whole series, does anyone know when was this first transmitted?
There's an official CZcams channel for Taskmaster that has a lot of seasons for free
@@pepperbunz9093
If it’s the Channel 4 one, I still need to know what the episode numbers are.
@@thechumpsbeendumped.7797 This particular clip is from the one-off New Years 2022 special
@@thechumpsbeendumped.7797 it's listed by season, I'm not here to help you as a direct TV guide, just check them out. They're all great episodes to watch, if you want a specific one just google it. I'm sure it will tell you
My first thought was to get a sifter/fine mesh collander and some baking soda before i said time starts now, and dust the shot glasses and see what had a reaction?
Drink anything acidic, and anything that fizzes over isnt vinegar anymore, its water anc co2 or something (i forget) so it doesn't need to be drunk
None of them thought that, well I can't smell the vinegar.
6:33 "everything is written on the task"
If Johnny was the dude that drank it with a straw, who’s the guy sitting in the chair afterwards? Did he have someone else do the challenge for him?
Jonnie Peacock was ill and so was represented by Alan Davies for the studio recording.
Im happy Alex stop them Drink all of them
" the timer end when you 'shout i've drunk all the vinegar'."
So just shout that and win...?
I like this gameshow
I thought they have to mix all the ingredients to make vinegar
Vinegar is produced via a double fermentation, so even if it was all the same liquid that you could, in theory, make vinegar from, it'd be an insanely long process for a task haha
Oh my god this one was so frustrating to watch💀💀💀
Weird that the description says there's 100 shots, as opposed to the 216 that are actually there.
The real plot twist!
One has rat poison in it
That"s the advantage of a one-off special, the contestants don't necessarily survive.
The best thing would be if in the final episode of taskmaster ever it becomes a death match. You lose the task, you die.
I thought the point of this task was to just shout “I’ve drunk all the vinegar” to stop the clock
at 1:48 the two front cups are a different consistency/hue of pink
Wow Jonnie has aged a bit...
I'm very confused by that
Im so confused
@@scrithen2836 Jonnie did the challenges but couldn't be bothered turning up to the studio so they replaced him with an older version 😉
@@noodledude1190 "Couldn't be bothered to".
He was sick.
I didnt think anyone was gonna mention this
Man, i would have hit the kitchen for baking soda. Sprinkle it everywhere.
My first thought was goto the kitchen and get banking soda and throw it over the shot glasses see which ones react
I’m surprised nobody just asked where the vinegar is.
I thought I was going insane seeing Alan Davis there
I hate vinegar, I might've taken a gamblenon immediately shouting "I drunk all the vinegar"
I would've sprinkled baking soda from the kitchen all over the drinks and see which one reacts
The resulting fluid after the baking soda and vinegar reacts is not safe for consumption. You'd find it quick, but then not be able to drink it.
Im thinking they need to run to the kitchen and get some baking soda
Where can I watch these special series?
Why did they switch-out Allan for the task?
Because Jonnie was ill for the studio recording
@@SamuelBoshier So they actually switched Jonnie, not Allan?
Thanks 👍
@watchmejumpstart I don't get it? Who was the actual participants and who was the substitute?
@@ElectariumTunic The actual contestant was Jonnie. Alan was only standing in for Jonnie in the studio because he(Jonnie) was sick and couldn't make it

No way there was litmus strips
Judging by the comment section, this video is reaching entirely the wrong demographic
Lol so true. The confusion over Alan and Johnny made it clear a lot of these commenters didn't watch series 9 in which Katy Wix was replaced, but all their 'solutions' make it clear they're new to the show lol
i actually want this task
What Season/Series is this?
Me who drinks apple cider vinegar because I actually would be disappointed at the lack of vinegar.😂
"which one out of 100"... I count 18 x 12 which is 216.
6:03 - I lmao that Claudia yelled in the studio when Jonnie found the trick, and they left the audio in.
Why did no one just sprinkle baking soda in all of them?
I dont think you can drink that
I've just drunk all the bastard vinegar. I love britisms
What series is this
I love Claudia ❤️
dump them all into a bucket and dilute it with water just to be safe and just drink it
By technicality you could say “I have Drunk all the Vinegar” in the beginning to stop the time and then find the vinegar and drink it to complete this challenge
I love vinegar, sign me up. 😋😝🤣
Ah yes that one series where you remember the tasks but not the contestants 😂
I don't even know what series this is! I thought I'd seen all of them but apparently I've missed one 😅
