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. - Komedie
Man, I loved Mark and Nish's song so much, that the first time I watched the episode, I replayed it several times. They did so well in that task!
I must admit I go back to that song from time to time, without watching the rest of the episode 🤣
Agreed. The legit best completion of a task all series.
I think they should release a full studio version for charity!
I listen to it on a regular basis, it’s becoming a problem
In terms of an actual thing created on the show it's probably the best thing. It's amazing. As much as I did enjoy Rosalind's a fucking nightmare, it should not have been a 3/2 split.
"is that a boulder or.. .a big rock?"
rob yam dam what’s this from I’m having a mare trying to remember
@@joshwheatley5457 In series 7, after James' song task.
Mister Apple thank youu
Alex starts laughing at this and breaks character😂
@@MisterAppleEsq but it's also said by Frank Skinner series 1, making James's joke a callback! let's see a callback video!!!
I'm Always Seeing You (Do Cool Stuff) is the anthem of our generation.
Hey look a tree 🌲
I'm more of a "Rosalind is a f*cking nightmare" kind of guy
I'm Always Seeing You Open Bracket Do Cool Stuff Closed Bracket
I’m scared to punch fish before descaling them now, the lessons I’ve learned from Taskmaster are invaluable
Dog's nursery rhyme is still one of the truly best things that ever happened on this show.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Same. I was JUST about to punch a damn cod as well. Glad I did until I descaled that bitch. Smh how stupid can we all be not to descale fish???
Took me a second to realise people don't normally punch fish 🤣
Your name isn’t Neil by any chance is it
Mark & Nish’s song will always be my favorite performance ever for a task. It genuinely sounds like an early Belle & Sebastian song lmao
It was fantastic. Reminds me of watching DIY punk/folk bands at my local.
Its the best. The full clip is on my personal “Pick Me Up” playlist. I love that the show added the shot of Rosalind’s toe tapping along because they mention she remained stone-faced throughout the performance.
Mark saying 'Mozart, one of my favourite bands as well' isn't getting enough love.
He is very underrated
Worthy candidates for part 2: Frank Skinner singing a sad song while he forces a bunch of millenials to cry into the egg cup, Jon Richardson finally breaking and singing to the Mayor
Romesh Ranganathan throwing the watermelon on the lab floor then eating it off the ground
When I was a boyyyyy and old shep was a pup...
His little sad song to make a room of grown men cry into egg cups was peak Comedy. There's not a day that goes by when I don't think of it
rosieanox This video and part 2 are just the musical moments from the show, so the watermelon won’t make it in
Mate you've gotta see the Norway version of the guy singing to the mayor. He had her in tears.
James' song, "over my shoulder" meaning....
I'm getting colder, as he gets older it's harder to keep body temperature regulated.
"Is that a boulder?" Meaning the tombstone over his grave because hes getting so close to death
The first part is ok.
But, the boulder, maybe its just a big rock lol.
@@dentol8860 yes bébé
i like that you've added meaning where there wasnt one! i now raise you: "im getting colder" refers to him becoming more isolated and stand-offish as he grows more cynical from always having to look "over his shoulder" ;)
As someone who is himself getting older, I think "is that a boulder?" might refer to the difficulties associated with constipation.
I thought it meant "is that a boulder behind me, or is that someone over my shoulder?"
Part 2 definitely has to have Rosalinds a nightmare and Rose's version of the taskmaster theme
Yes on Rose’s country theme song rap! Easily one of the most impressive things to come from the show 😄
@@Jayk-kz7sh rose is one of my top three favourite contestants and I think her country rap is up there with my favourite moments in the whole show
Yeah, how do they have that segment, and NOT pick Rose’s entry.
And bob asking "do we strike you?"
@@aenamabag And his follow-up questions:
Have you ever stolen something?
What is your favourite kind of meat?
Have you ever wanted to fly?
Romesh has provided some amazing things, like Tree Wizard, and throwing a watermelon on the floor
“If it’s ‘Make a baby,’ I’m gonna win,” is an underrated line.
Thrice at least!
Realised after the video was done that ‘greatest hits’ is because they are all musically related. I was sat here thinking this was like a Best of Taskmaster compilation 🤣
This is the third time I’ve watched the video and only figured this out tonight too 😂
6:38 Nish’s ‘Diverse Stripes’ joke got completely slept on! I thought that was hilarious
i didnt get the joke, would you explain?
@@lrizzard there's a band called White Stripes who are a brother sister duo
@@ah90178 They're actually ex-husband and wife, the sibling duo thing was just something Jack White made up to confuse the press.
Mark and Nish's song is super impressive. Genuinely listened to her and took her interests and made pretty damn good song out of it...
meanwhile rosalind:
😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐
James was definitely heavily disadvantaged at the 30-second piece of music task, because, being punk, he can't be used to such long songs
Rosalind may have remained expressionless during Nish and Mark’s performance, but that toe… that toe is a testament to how well they did.
"I'm Always Seeing You (Do Cool Stuff)" and Aisling, Sally, and Bob's effort "Quite Good, Considering" are both works of genius, but "Tree Wizard" always makes me unreasonably happy.
Tree Wizard is the best thing that's ever come out of this show.
I genuinely don’t see why some many people like that one? It’s not even the best thing Romesh has done!
nicole nagy “Do you have any idea how long it took to find that song?” damn near killed me.
magical hazzardHOLY FUCK its another baloooon
Don't forget "Pants on a stick" for part 2.
and james' song when he pulled out tape in episode 1
@@cassindra438 Gaffa(?) rope, is no joke.
@bad1dobby “Never before have I been so offended by something I 100% agree with” James Acaster
Part of me kind of wants the music task that James had to do to be recurring, such a great idea especially with non-musical guests haha
Yes!!
same but if there are recurring tasks, there's always the chance of comedians being prepared for them.
ah, finally! an official upload of my full wedding playlist.
I think my favourite part of the Mark and Nish scene (apart from the song) is that it actually got Alex tapping away as well
I love how much Mark Watson enjoys himself performing that song with Nish
Tree Wizard and Doc's nursery rhyme are two of my favourite Taskmaster moments
Returning to add that Nish and Mark's song is now stuck in my head
BRO GENUINELY SAMEE
Mark and Nish's song for a stranger was so damn good. As good as Rosalind is a fucking nightmare was, that song should've made top 40.
My lb
Asim’s rap for Greg doesn’t get enough appreciation
James song's last line could have been about dying "getting colder" and the "is that a boulder" could refer to a headstone. Keeps in line with the whole someone sneaking around after you for years.
Nah, it’s just a big rock
7:46 i love how pleased watto looks with himself after his drumming
The next one definitely needs Jon's nursery rhyme and Joe Thomas' song about him wanting to murder Alex..
Also Joe's classic 2-second masterpiece of MM GET TOGETHER MM MM
Phil Wang: A Lime. That is the most beautiful piece of music ever
Ah yes, James acaster’s punk classic
That's what I told ya!
Turns out it was a big rock after all.
Love how the most watched part of the video is everyone cheering for Mark and Nish. Genuinely the best song and such a win for them. They deserve it!
The episode with Tree wizard was my first introduction to the show, and to this day it's still one of the most iconic task responses in my opinion
Life's age-old question, "Is that a boulder or a big rock?"
Doc's video is still one of my all time favourite moments in TM. Honestly this task in general was one of the best, they were all hilarious... Even Joe's terrible one 😂
Katherine’s nursery rhyme; Katherine’s song to the mayor; and Quite Good, Considering all deserve a spot on the next one.
Oh yeah! Forget that’s what we know as Rosalind’s a nightmare
Mark has to be one of my favourite contestants on this show so far, that season itself was up there with the best too
I would genuinely buy Nish and Mark's singles
Rosalind's a Nightmare and That's Peter Hudson must make an appearance in part 2 please!!
It took me halfway through this video to realize it was "greatest hits" as in musical hits and not as in "best bits"
So why was the mask eating and love declaration musical?
James' face as his nice explanation of punk ethos is punctured by his own lyrics is amazing... but then he brings it back with "or is it a big rock" and a deadpan expression that almost makes you think you're the moron for not *getting it*.
How did Jon Richardson’s rendition of Three Blind Mice not make the cut? One of my favorite Taskmaster performances of all time.
Please include Jo Brand acing that 'egg timer' challenge by belting out 'Jersualem' from her car for the next part!
3 more needed songs for part2 are Rose's taskmaster theme, the other "song for a stranger" Rosalinds a f*cking nightmare, and the impress the mayor song from Jon
Ed making Alex dress as a mermaid fountain and the song he has to sing! Classic!
Lmfao, Ed Gamble's take on the theme song... I'm dying here!! 😂
Ok, but where is Ed's serenade? I'd listen to that on repeat!
this channel proves i can watch the same clips recut multiple times and still enjoy every time
We all knew Tree Wizard was going to be part of this
The thing I hate about this compilation is it brought up tasks that just made me think of songs they didn't show: Every single entry in the S2 nursery rhyme task (literally all of them were amazing, especially Jon's). Bob and the girls singing about Rosalind. Rose's version of the Taskmaster theme song. So much instant classic being tossed to the side.
I've watched the Rosalind songs so many times I know them by heart! Joe Wilkinson's potato throw tragedy is a must for the next ones.
I personally loved Jon Richardson doing tasks the other 4 came up with, so original and he did a great job. Especially the makeup tutorial
Doc making that song his own. Love it.
Mark and Nish ❤️
I'm always seeing you (do cool stuff) needs a proper studio recorded version
I'm so impressed with that Good Enough song!
The knish/crane duo did such a good job on that song it truly almost made me cry. Every time.
Nish amd Mark's song is one of the best taskmaster moments
Rose Matifeo's version of the theme song was incredible, and I really loved all of the seranades from season 9 (except obviously David Baddeil's) but Ed's was my favorite from that. Rhod Gilbert's Matchstick Girl was an absolutely representative Rhod Gilbert task.
are we just gonna ignore how amazing mark and nish’s song was
The song katherine wrote for the mayor! + definitely one of the 'serenade yourself'-songs
Jo Brand's Jerusalem egg timer needs to be in the next one, as well as.Rose Matefeos theme tune, Taskmaster the Musical from Series 6 and rosalind's a nightmare :)
I always watch these clips at night and I swear down I’ve been having nightmares of Greg forcing me to do tasks on this show for a week now
5:50 My favourite musical task ever
The fact that rose's taskmaster theme isn't in this.... it's personal now
1:03 THAT GUY!!! He was on the first series of The Voice UK on Danny's team!! I remember him being quite artistic and pretty good but sadly didn't make it through to the end.
Ed Gamble’s Self-serenade definitely needs to be in part 2!!!
That opening with the ukulele is honestly really well done. Probably my favorite of the ones I’ve seen.
I think about "over my shoulder" every other day at least.
This show, like wilty, just makes me insanely happy.
6:30 they look so cute as well as their song is announced haha
I refreshed just at the right time!
Almost all of these songs have now some how wandered into my daily vocabulary.
10:37 Genuinely thought they somehow decapitated Ed until I watched it 4 more times and finally saw it was a doll’s head
Ah I was hoping asim was on here. He made history with that "greg davey I wanna have your baby" line
James was screaming like Lloyd from Pindrop
Hey. Hands up to the film and sound crew.... consistently creating great content footage of awesome content.
The show brings out their hidden talents.
Part 2: Guz's laminator rap has to make it in!
Tree Wizard is what got me hooked on this show!
I remember walking by the livingroom TV and seeing the Tree Wizard Skit. First time id seen taskmaster. Been hooked since.
Thanks for being a great example of artistic insanity. Lots of love
This is such a brilliant show
when i heard it the first time i assumed the "is that a boulder" was refering to a tombstone
but no james is just a lunatic
help i’ve been singing tree wizard in my head for the past 6 hours.
No Taskmaster music compilation is complete without James' "gaffer rope" song.
i'd love asim chaudhry's song for greg was in the next part
I feel that that weird sound Phil Wang makes with his mouth should also count as a musical performance for part 2.
I did not expect that woman's favourite films to be The Hangover (1 & 2)...
The good enough song is so good!!
tree wizard gets me every time
Ballad of the toothless goon should defo be in the next one! Loved this video!
Ed's was certainly memorable. He nailed the "memorable" bit. Not in a good way, but I won't be forgetting that.
Mark and nish’s song is
Hands down the best moment in TM history
i want nish & mark’s song to be my ringtone.
It's crazy how good Nish was in that task, given how rubbish he was at just about everything else.
LOVE this show!!
Part 1? More to come? Yes please.
Ngl I forgot Ed's Taskmaster theme - Rose's though was amazing.
"Beans and toast" is maybe the most British answer to favorite food
