i will never understand why they stopped showing the in-studio reactions to the recordings. seeing them laugh at eachother/themselves along with the task makes it so much better
Agree did not realise this till you mentioned it
I think the producers explained it was because they think it flows better with just the recordings playing, plus it allows them to fix things in the studio in the meantime if something isn't quite right. Completely agree though, shame they stopped doing it after series 7
I only watch the UK and the Swedish versions, and I think they still do it in the Swedish version, and great lord is it nice to see them laugh at each other
I imagine it would be a pain to edit in reactions to a video you’ve already edited as well as you can. Still. It IS better with the in studio added in.
@@samsbin yep, and NZ too
Unsigning Josh's football is the most unrecognised act of cruelty in the show's history 😂
I absolutely love when Ramesh breaks character. Hes trying so hard to be the straight man, looking all grumpy, and then when you see him cackle its just pure gold lol
I LOVE how argumentative series 1 was, but the vibes are still amiable y’know? It’s really like watching a bunch of close friends together
The “give me Frank Skinner’s age in minutes” tiebreaker is still one of my favorite banters in the whole show. Every sentence was funny
Guys guys… papa don’t breach 😂😂😂 gets me every time, especially when Frank gets up to shake Roisin’s hand
Sorry to bother you, I'm no native speaker and don't understand what she was referring to. Would you mind explaining, please? :)
There is a very popular song “papa don’t preach” by madonna which generally talks about how she doesn’t need someone else to tell her what to do( preach what she should do). Rosh was being preachy about how unfair it is to breach the pie, she said the phrase “papa don’t breach” when she was called out on the same.
@@rawrudereal5632 Oooh, I see! Thank you dearly for taking the time.
Roisin: Papa don't breach Tim: I'm in trouble deep...
I always forget how unhinged S1 was 😂
I always lose it at the melon splatter. It's so visceral 😂
Im not sure that this show would have made it if it hadnt been this set of comics. The chemistry they had with each other and Greg and Alex was perfect. But also, Josh getting Greg tatooed on his foot I think may have been the absolute deal sealer
Frank Skinner, the real one! Because he agreed to be a part of it, it got the credibility to continue and people agreed to be on future episodes. Fucking boss! Also I will also have a special place in my heart for that Watermelon slam. Season1 was the best and so chaotic!
I miss this lot, wish they got more episodes. Especially Tim still the best cheater they had.
It’s why he is now a task designer 😁
he fundamentally altered the way the assign the tasks now. no loopholes left. they learned their lesson.
“Feels like we’re choosing who’s going to host the next World Cup.” 🤣 Such a brilliant line
I love Tim Key's reaction to Romesh smashing the melon
Amazing series to kick it off. All the cheating and arguing over points and places never really reached this height ever again. It's less of a 'fun experience' here and more of an actual adversarial competition, it's hilarious.
Ramesh's face was the best ending for this vid! 😂
I'm realizing how amazing it would have been to have Sean Lock be a cast member, and we'll never have that, and now I'm sad :(
I'm from U.S. - the only reason I've heard of some of these guys is because of Countdown, which I started watching because it was suggested after watching other number "games". I absolutely loved Sean Lock vs Jon Richardson and would have loved to see Sean on Taskmaster! He would have destroyed the competition!
I feel like Roisín shouldn’t have been penalized when Alex was the one who suggested the alternative horse option.
It’s funny because Alex was glad she did it because otherwise he thought the task was very samey
Yeah, that was unfair, definitely an indication of the show finding its feet
The whole breaching the pie not had me in tears 😂
The early seasons had the best banter between contestants.
The first series was one of the best.
Thank you Frank Skinner for allowing this show to excel and given the chance yo grow
Is he like a producer on the show or something?
@@steveoconnivo9666 no he was a huge comedian back in the day and a huge name on the business in the UK. Aside from Greg and Alex's friends other contestants were very nervous about going on the show for fear of just being humiliated. Frank Skinner came out of no where and offered to join. Once he joined everyone felt Away more comfortable about doing the show. It's very likely it he didn't give it a shot this show wouldn't of existed
@mrbushi1062 hell ya go Frank! I guess I just missed out on some of the politics going on about the show. I blame my americanism.
@@steveoconnivo9666 it's ok Its not easy to find I too am an American!
If we had a streaming service just for channel4 stuff I'd buy it.
All these years later im curious if they switched footballs, it was never actually signed, or they genuinely wiped off all the signatures
I would hope that they did not wipe the ball clean.
Makes me want to watch the first series all over again.
Yes bring back the in-studio reactions they were fun and insightful
I know Romesh was the highlight of the melon task but Roisin eating one drop is so underrated 😂😂😂
They really nailed the cast in series 1, set the programme up for the next seasons.
The best part of Josh's wheelbarrow mug in the Toss the Teabag Task was that he was penalized, not for stretching the definition of a mug to the absolute limit, but for making tea milk first.
This is one of my favorite series.
Shows always been funny but these guests are more Argumentative then usual and it's hilarious.
Greg said later (on a chat show) that all of the things they bring in for the special task are returned.
The same was said by Richard Osman in his podcast with Marina Hyde, The Rest Is Entertainment.
There's a special charm of series 1 looking back at it
Got to be honest with the title. I was expecting this to be mostly Josh Widdecombe
This series was the best, when the contestants have a go at each other it much funnier. Now everybody are so nice to each other. You want a bit of friendly banter.
helps they all knew each other before hand..
Maybe that is because now the focus is the panel against the Taskmaster and his Minion, as opposed to against each other
Romesh❤
This is still the best season. My favorites are when the contestants have this sort of banter. ❤
I miss the real time reactions also, give Roisin another chance, she was funny
We need series 1 outtakes 😔
I find it interesting how little the word 'wanker' has been used on this show given it's basically the quintessential British insult.
We reserve "wanker" for when we're feeling properly contemptuous. We use plank, cabbage, lamp, turnip, plum, for when we're feeling dismissive, which is most of the time.
Wanker does have quite aggressive undertones...and it's quite common...especially among the football hooligan community. Insults such as bellend, cockwomble and fucknugget are more elegant and quintessentially English.
Likely due to the time Taskmaster is broadcast? I'm pretty sure taskmaster is prewatershed?
@@TheJollyAlexno. It’s 9pm mate. There is a pre-watershed version but it’s just a censored version ofbthe main show
Wanker isn’t used much in friendly banter. Calling someone a “wanker” usually really means you hold them in contempt.
What! So The Taskmaster lied to James Acaster when he said he had never seen The Matrix 😮😂
12:17 Undoubtedly the best section 👌
Frank ❤
We need someone as unethical as Tim back on
Moneybags Murray :)
Season 1 was stacked.
Brilliant❤
Weird seeing them all sit so closely togteher pre-covid!
It's such a different dynamic isn't it. Do you think it's because they're all more familiar with each other?
This is better than the taskmaster channel.
Love taskmaster
Oh these kids!
Series 1 was the best !
I get that it was new but such a difference in production value of the studio in series one versus now. This looks like it was filmed in a basement
This was filmed in an actual theatre not a studio. That's probably why it feels so different
I’m a fan of pretty much all the people on this show, and yet still have never watched it. Don’t even really know the premise of the show. I’m going to start tonight. I love cats do countdown, would I lie to you , etc, but for some reason never seen this??
By not watching this you've missed out! I did not see it when it first came out but did find it a number of years ago. It's great entertainment.
"Davies, the Tramp poet" I didn't catch that on first watch; at 0:52 - It's why the Rash guy with glasses says 'you let a tramp pay for your food?'
Romesh spiking the watermelon will never not be hilarious.
how did america manage to ruin this perfect format...
I heard that one attempt at doing a remake of Fawlty Towers they left out Basil! When I heard that from John Cleese it was a WTF moment.
Blows my mind that this show was created by Alex horn and Tim key ye5 they say and act like they are just cast
HOW DID I NOT KNOW THIS SHIW EXISTED!!!
they had no idea they were making history
These early seasons were much funnier than recent ones. There was better chemistry, better comics and better group arguing.
Why do your editors cut the reactions!?!?!
Channel 4 posting Series 1 clips feels a bit like copying the smart kid's homework
Like how the only jokes you know are phrases you copy paste from other people's comments?
I'm just gonna say it. Series 1 was the best.
👍🏻👊🏻😂🤣
The problem I have with Tim on rewatch is that instead of going along with the challenges and banter from the other contestants, he tends to shut them down with 'shut up' or similar. Not as fun.
I wish I got to go to the beach with Greg for the day ❤😊
I know she loves ice cream, as do I
A conceptoohbe!?!??
poor ramesh
11:57 My Lord, Capitalism has gone insane!
First season was the best. 4 people who want to win, and one silly person. That's a good formula. It's not good if the majority of the contestants is silly.
🤣🤣🤣
In the first episode of the latest series, Greg made a throw-away comment about trying to be more nice. My concern is that UK Taskmaster may now start pandering to international audiences who don't quite grasp the nuances of British sarcasm and irreverence, as seen here in these make-pretend spats. You only have to look at KZhead comments to see how upset people were getting when Greg laid into the contestants, forgetting that this is a great British comedy where this kind of behaviour is expected. I hope I'm wrong. There's always viewer adjustment to a new series of new contestants, so I'm praying that the latest series will witness more classic anarchic behaviour, like we see in this clip, with Greg continuing to passify them with his withering put-downs. I'm pinning my hopes on Sophie to provide some more bonkers, off-the-wall moments 😁
Hasn’t that been something he has said for ages, that people complain he’s too mean and how it doesn’t matter.
@@brendanberry7403yes, and I hope he sticks by it!
There is no such thing as savage insults anymore
Romesh is such a baby.
Until this compilation, I didn't realise how often Tim told Roisin to shut up. Kinda off-putting.
i like josh, but i've never heard him say ANYTHING original
Got a tattoo ?!?! He the geeky one in UK comedy with John Richardson
@@SirPablo2Pablo lol like I mean - for the show- yeah that's commitment but its not "original"
So jump up and have a go. Send me the link when you do.
@@wyrdpink2549 why are you offended? Show me something original he has said? I never said I didn't like him he's just more of a "cover artist" I get piad 105,000 a year to do physiology. So probably not worth my time to be a writer on a sketch show.
@@seanknot And you came back with the single most overused reply of the decade then flashed your cash as if money means a single thing anymore. Seriously, I’m not even joking, if you come back with the latest parroted opinion on “cancel culture” or how nobody can say jokes anymore, this bit will be so perfect.
Never laughed once whilst watching this.
I know Tim Key is their friend but i despised his cheating on the show. Second only to Al Murray who pd everyone
i forgot how irritating Tim was
I strongly disagree with your opinion
@@doctorsuave that's ok. i'm fine with that.
@@nimoy007 what a childish response 😂 OP has all the right to find Tim irritable and be able to tell him to his face without the risk of immediate physical assault. Absolutely ridiculous take.
@@nimoy007 first come find me and tell me that to my face, after i'll try my best to find tim key and tell him that i find him irritating.
I think we found Tim
So it was Roisin who started the unflattering greg photo as a prize and the unfunny and unoriginal rhod copied her
I firmly believe you will hit an age where you stop leaving comments like this on a KZhead video 👊🏻
@@tasshuffler8905 nah
Season 1 really set the bar for this show
