Taskmaster Teams and the Very Specific Vibes They Give Off (To Me)

Nish Kumar and Mark Watson: Coworkers who are also best friends. If Mark is honest, he’s feeling a lot of anxiety because Nish is the office clown who often doesn’t get his work done and Nish would have been fired by now if he wasn’t covering for him. 

Jess Knappett and Kerry Godliman: An Auntie and her favorite niece bonding the week before the niece’s wedding. 

Lolly Adefope, Joe Lycett, and Noel Fielding: Two younger siblings about to get roped into trouble by their cool older brother who will unrepentantly ditch them at the first opportunity. 

Liza Tarbuck, Asim Chaudhry, and Tim Vine: The competent and overworked office admin assistant who is about to kill everyone because the men in the office never listen to her and two men in the office who never listen to her. 

Joe Thomas and Sian Gibson: An Auntie and her favorite nephew who has asked her to go for a coffee because he’s fighting with his girlfriend and needs some advice. 

James Acaster, Phil Wang, and Rhod Gilbert: (an inverted version of how I have seen them described before) A 50 year old man whose sole relationship with his adult nephews is pranking them and always taking it too far until one of the nephews punches him during the middle of family Christmas. 

Daisy May Cooper and Richard Herring: A young pregnant woman who has come to stay with her Mum to get some help before the birth of her baby, only the baby has come early while the Mum is out of town on a business trip and now the step dad who she hates is going to be the one to take her to the hospital and be the one to help her during the birth. 

Lee Mack and Mike Wozniak: Brothers in law. Their wives are sisters. They are at a family barbeque and are about to, while stone cold sober, try to make their babies wrestle.

Question: would Bertie Wooster be good at Taskmaster? Follow-up question: Would Jeeves be better or worse than him?

I’ve been (over?)thinking about this question for three days because this is probably the best question I have ever been asked, so thank you anon :)

I think Bertie will either be coincidentally really good, or just really bad and no in between. When it comes to Taskmaster, I think it really depends on both the type of tasks and the mood of the Taskmaster himself, and so I believe that even though Bertie would be on Greg’s good side, he’d still be up for constant grilling. Greg would be fond of his vocabulary. I like to think he would Think he’s got the task all figured out, and while it looks like he’s doing shit, he manages to complete the task in the dumbest way that is so bad its almost impressive. He would be GREAT at the prize tasks. He’d be very entertaining to watch, with commentary about wax seals, Jeeves, and ‘Bally’ would be used quite a lot. He’d be so creative!! Probably wouldn’t win but he’s definitely the series fan favorite

Now Jeeves! I don’t think he would be necessarily better, but he’d try to do the tasks with efficiency and as quick as possible, which isn’t always the best way to do those tasks. He would find the tasks outrageous but still try his best with careful planning, mostly because he’s used to the shit Bertie’s pals get into, so he can get through anything (he hates the timed tasks the most; don’t think he works all that well under pressure). The Taskmaster hates him but finds him amusing, because he’s, well, Jeeves. I like to think he’d have fun on the show, though!

I’d DEFINITELY like to watch a series of Jeeves&Wooster Taskmaster. Question for you, Anon, what would your lineup be? I’d think it would be interesting to watch Bertie, Jeeves, Gussie Fink-Nottle, Florence Craye, and Honoria Glossop all against each other. Honoria would probably win

The Crystal Maze S04E05 feat The Derry Girls

That episode was brilliant. Didn't think Richard would be so savage with the kids. Then again, as I just found out, some "kids" are over 30.

[cinematic-universe]

That's so brilliantly wicked.
