Feck the Patreon app! I used to spend a load of time on "Reddit is Fun" until the Reddit CEO killed all 3rd party apps..

Hiya Mandy, Welcome to Series 10! I personally think covid gave this series an extra touch of desperation and manic hysteria - especially without an audience. You should see the outtakes, they do crack each other up and go off on weird tangents 😆 You love those green lava lamps? I really want one of those vintage green lamps you see lawyers have on their desks on tv shows etc, I know I’ll have “arrived” with one of those on my desk 🤣 I’ve low key wanted one for years - I know once I snap one up though, I’ll be completely over it in days, hours, even minutes - wtf’s this unwieldy lamp doing on my desk, make room for my laptop! It’s purely an aesthetic desire, not sure it’s practical, or fit for purpose! Much like a lava lamp eh? 🤣 The moment you recognised Katherine Parkinson in the opening credits, haha! Awesome 😊 Never had braces, although I’m sure I could benefit from them. My childhood NHS dentist at the time probably judged on balance it wasn’t a cost effective option considering their limited budget and the severity of my problem. I’m obliviously un-self conscious but if I had a bottomless pot of cash I’d consider braces to line them up nicely and fix the overlapping, and also do something about the chips in my two front teeth!!! 😬. My gnashers are stereotypically British. I did wear a brace on my foot for the first 5 years of life tho, so plenty of experience with the pain and discomfort there 🙂 Honestly, you have a flawless set of teeth now, I’m so jealous. Whatever pain and suffering you went thought, I’m here to tell you it was totally worth it 👌 Alex always separates by age? We’ve already seen he’ll pick any nonsense criteria that groups the people he wants to show next! They’re grouping replays by task performance - similar approaches are replayed together. Usually there’s a middle of the road replay to set the bar, the final replays are either hilariously good or hilariously bad! They work with the footage they’ve got and present the most dramatic narrative 🤓 Dunno if anyone’s said - Daisy would have done the tasks months before filming, so either early stages of pregnancy or not preggo at all! Yeah Katherine Parkinson’s a peach! Regarding removing the sofa (or a couch as one particular Argentinian American would say) from the room - Forget the hallway, behind the cameras are a pair of French patio doors, they both open up so plenty wide enough to cart a sofa … Pivot! Pivot! Yeah such an elegant sketch of a front-facing plane, very economical with the circles and straight lines. You’ll probably know by know, Johnny’s quite the artist. So stressed about the cow and a possible swiss cheese memory failure?! 🤣 Can we appreciate the fantastic piece of misdirection by Mawaan 👏 Great spot on the Taskmaster House Gargoyles!!! I’ve been looking at google images of the house, they were indeed an addition to Series 10 - You do have a keen eye for detail 👍 So trust yourself, you’ve NOT seen the bloody cow before 🤣 Alex: “We have not hidden the frying pan” - yeah but you’ll be cryptic af instead of giving a straight answer 😆 Why was Katherine crying so hard after her egg in the frying pan replay? They edited out a ton of outtake footage where they’re all rolling around laughing - them tears is all we were given 🥲 Just wait for the outtakes! Katherine: “I can’t look at you, sorry 🤣” lmao! Alex, Re Daisy’s egg attempt: “It was such a nice moment, would you like to see it again” Mandy! *alarm bells* should be screaming at you when Alex asks if we’d like to see it again 😆 Time after time, it’s only so we can see extra disqualification footage! Lol Lovely to see your reaction to this new cast, a more supportive dynamic for sure. Thanks Mandy 🤗 You're a joy G

Richard Betts

This season’s outtakes are some of the best!

Marvelous Martin

I don't use that word lightly!

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahahhaa, I do what I can! 🤪

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahahah! Is it ok that I read that in Karl's voice? 🤪🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

I love it Alexander! They seem like a great group of genuinely silly people! I have high hopes for this season! 🙌🏻✨️🤗

Mandy Cane Lane

Ah yes! Seems like an extra silly cast! 🙌🏻✨️

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahahahs! Silly Katherine!! 🤣🤣 I love the way they edit the show when a contestants can't find something obvious 🤭

Mandy Cane Lane

Lol, thank you very much Ordinary Font Steve 🥰🧡

Mandy Cane Lane

OMG!!! That is hilarious! And no, I did not notice and wouldn't have unless you told me 🤣🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

Ahh, very interesting. Thank you Remi! 🧡

Mandy Cane Lane

Nah, JK. Instagram I guess, love watching animal memes 🤪. How about you Josh?

Mandy Cane Lane

HAHAHAHA! Calculator! Lol.

Mandy Cane Lane

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahahhaha! Something they would totally do! 🤣🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

Well, not sure about the seasons to come, or this one really, but these guys seem to get along well which seems like a big plus! 🙌🏻✨️

Jonathan Davies

I’ll put up his subtitles for every episode in the comment section 🤣🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahaha! I am going to work hard to understand him but will most likely have to take you up on that offer! Thank you! 🤪🤗

Mandy Cane Lane

Well, I am a competitive cookie, and I would give it my ALL!!! Not sure if I would do well though, I am a mess 🤣🤣🤣 Would like to think I can win it though 🤭

Mandy Cane Lane

Ohhhhh!! Huh, that is odd. Never would have guessed. Thank you Joeb! 💜

Mandy Cane Lane

Thank goodness! I thought I was going crazy Robert! 😅😅

Mandy Cane Lane

Aye, I get that. I think I am just going to embrace the weird though 🤪

Mandy Cane Lane

Josh sloan

YES HELLO NEW PEOPLES 😁😁

Josh sloan

Noooo daisy's a fucking wacko 😂 she's team captain on a show called never mind the buzzcocks and she nearly pisses herself every show. Btw it's a music style show with noel Fielding as the other team captain and Greg hosts it

Josh sloan

Johnny shouted looks like gods haemorrhoed when you didn't know what he said during the egg task

Joshyboiiiiii

Yeah that statue thing that was used for the task that kept turning happened like 6-7 seasons before this one 😂😂 the things change sometimes, just never noticed the cow

Joshyboiiiiii

Daisy said taskmaster is probably best known for its large cow, so explain why it would be a season 10 cow with it being the first episode 😂 you must just be blind

Joshyboiiiiii

Oh balls fuck this episode

Joshyboiiiiii

It's like I told you in October that you should write names down 😂😂

Joshyboiiiiii

Thought I'd have to discuss what a Durham cricket club is

Josh Read

Message understood 😱 It wasn't iconic at that point.

Mandy Cane Lane

Also, I was suffering for my sanity with the cow Josh. It tripped me up when she said that everyone knew it was an iconic Taskmaster thing, like what? 😅

Mandy Cane Lane

I will have you know, that those were dance moves and I very much do so know how to throw a punch. And I am short so I will knock the wind right outta ya! 🤪

Mandy Cane Lane

OMFGGGGGG!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 This is all just .... TOO MUCH 🤣🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahaha! I was scared to google the spelling as well! 😅🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

Yeah, that was a creative way to work through that. Still sounds very odd though. At least they tried! 🙌🏻😅

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahaa! Oh good! She confused me when she said the cow was so iconic on Taskmaster, I felt proper crazy. 😅 And thank you for teaching me Tony! 🌈💜✨️

Mandy Cane Lane

Ahhh, right. That is a whole issue as well. Interesting stuff, thank you Graeme! 🤗✨️

Mandy Cane Lane

Hi Chill Bill! I will do my best to fill the silences with random noises to make it more enjoyable for both of us! 🤪

Mandy Cane Lane

Hello Joe! Interesting, I have heard some good things. All in all, even at it's weakest points, this show is fun! 🤗

Mandy Cane Lane

Thank you, will watch later 🤗

Mandy Cane Lane

Eggs and balls. Glad to see David toughening up but the results were a little mundane. Sorry to hear about the allergy onslaught, Mandy 😂. You'll be reyt!

Joshyboiiiiii

Wait what 🤣🤣🤣

Alexander Brown

Despite the Covid restrictions and general weirdness of adjusting to a new massive channel with wide reach and proper expectations, I have a lot of affection for this series. It was the first one I watched. Nostalgia aside, this is a genuinely terrific lineup, each of them is absolutely insane in different ways, which does a lot to negate the lack of audience because they were all in hysterics half the time.

𝑭𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆

Hi Rusty, Daisy wrote and starred in the BBC series This Country. I enjoyed it, check it out if you get the chance. https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b09twr53/this-country

AWR93

Great episode to start the series! Seems like there will be plenty of laughs in store!

Rusty Dog

Great to see Katherine Parkinson in this one. I hope she does well enough to win. Apart from Johnny Vegas, I dunno who the others are except I've heard of Daisy but no idea what she does. Apperently after this episode, Katherine went home to make herself a bacon sandwich. Took her 2hrs! Couldn't find the frying pan. Well hopefully we get a good season again. Looking fwd to the journey.

Stevus

Oh wait, I think you asked the wrong question JB, my answer doesn't make sense.

Stevus

Recess and lunch.

Stevus

Gods Haemorrhoid is what Johnny said while he was staring up at the bunch of balloons that got away from him. 🎈 *edit - sorry, thought no-one had said that, but I was wrong🙃 BTW, your braces may have been unpleasant, but I'm sure it was worth it. You have a lovely set of choppers indeed Miss Mandibles 😁

Stevus

I kinda feel a bit sorry for Katherine, there are many situations like the balloon task for her this season. I think she's a good sport though. I also think that's why David Mitchell won't do Taskmaster. He's worried about completely embarrassing himself.

Stevus

That's more like it!

TrickUpMySteve

This whole season Katherine is on the verge of tears and Daisy is on the verge of giving birth, also fun fact, not sure if you've ever noticed or anyone has said, but this season was the first season that I noticed the contestants always sit in alphabetical order

Remi

Mandy i found a video of karl pilkintons brother Mark he was on a tv show about British benefits, he did pass away in 2017 i believe here it is if you want to see him https://youtu.be/AKGsAVPabG4?si=_YDkSxm4EMZR0z1a

Marvelous!

I love the mental image I have of Alex patiently sanding down all the eggs one by one, while Greg chuckles in the corner 😊

Jonathan Davies

Pretty much all of the contestants for series 10,11 and 12 have been on the Taskmaster podcast and they all said they found it really awkward and difficult doing the live stage stuff..having no audience to laugh made it a bit of a wierd atmosphere….F*%K YOU COVID! 🖕

Jonathan Davies

Been waiting a while for Season 10 to see how Mandy tackles Jonny Vegas’s accent 😂😂 I don’t live too far from St Helens so if you need an interpreter I’m here for you Mandy 🤝

Rob Gregori

Hi Mandy, given the really low scores in this episode, it got me thinking, if you were to be on the show, how do you think you would do? Do you think you would do well or not so good? Another great reaction, stay happy and healthy bebehh!!

DahDutcher

10 was rough, but 11 and 12 were great.

𝑭𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆

Knocking two empty potato salad pots together 🤣

Joeb Rogers

"Bar one / bar two" - the bar basically just means 'excluding'. So "All the drinks bar two" would just mean all the drinks except for two.

Josh Read

No it looks like she pretending to ride a horse when kitana is knocking 2 empty halves of coconuts together 🤣

𝑭𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆

That GIF looks like she's entering an 80's disco already throwing shapes. 🤣

Josh Read

Exactly, hardly a threat, unless we injure ourselves laughing at her 😆 🤣

Robert Allen

Yes, the cow was only added this season. Also, this is the joint lowest score for an episode winner, tied with Ed Gamble in the S9 finale

DahDutcher

This is a ... weird season. It has good moments, but it's the weakest season for me. Didn't really enjoy Daisy and Richard was hyped up so much to me and really didn't deliver on that hype. I really enjoyed Mawaan and Johnny though, and Katherine is one of my all time favourite contestants. She's just super lovely. It didn't help not having a live audience as well.

Josh Read

Don't waste Mayo. She has said she is suffering with allergies at the moment so is as weak as a kitten 😸 🤧 and we've seen her punching skills she moves like the cowardly lion, put em up put em up 🤣

When Vegas' helium balloons are touching the roof of the prison/factory he says "God's Haemorrhoid". You said "What did he say?" and rewound it but still not catching it you shrugged your shoulders and moved on.

"Why's she crying so much?" There's an outtake that explains why she was crying, she was crying laughing from an extended sequence where they are all riffing on the egg in the pipe looking rude.

𝑭𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆

Neither am I. I still carry my sachet of mayonnaise 😉

Josh Read

I'm not scared of her 😎 though you uploaded it.

𝑭𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆

I just hope Mandy realises I'm being led astray 🤣

Josh Read

I know that's why I approve 🤣

𝑭𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆

It was your idea 👌

Josh Read

I love the new picture 🤗 seal of approval 👌

𝑭𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆

I'm lucky, it's all new to me 😁

Josh Read

I agree 🙂

Ari.g

love this season! i think it’s a hit or miss for some people - but the lack of audience members makes the cast turn into a bunch of giggling children and it makes me so happy. Get ready for a lot of silly moments ❤️

Jon Clarke

I love this series because it is a complete mess. Once you accept that, it is absolutely hilarious.

Josh Read

You looked like you were going to cry when you were worrying about the cow 😪☹️ yeah this was the first time the cow was featured. I've got very little memory of this series and can't remember who won. Jonny Vegas said gods hemorrhoids when his balloons were stuck.on the ceiling. You missed it twice 😟

𝑭𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆

You are right Jeff. If you Google it, the UK sites use haemorrhoid. The U.S. sites use Hemorrhoid.

Jeffrey44

There's not an American spelling and a British spelling is there? I love those. I connect them.

𝑭𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆

I enjoyed this, it's gonna be a fun season. I really didn't mind there being no audience. Also, Johnny Vegas is a GOD!. I checked the the spelling of haemorrhoid, you can spell it both ways (haemorrhoid or Hemorrhoid) It is spelt haemorrhoid on the NHS website, I now know things I wish I didn't 🤣. As always, thank you Mandy 🤗🤗

YearRoundHibernater

The audience are in a cinema in socially distanced groups and they've synced up their recorded laughing with the show footage, so it is still genuine audience laughter although it does sound a bit weird with it being recorded and there being fewer people with the distancing. But at least it wasn't canned laughter and was actual people laughing at the funny things.

Daisy May Cooper... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLFzW1Rq4nQ

Tony Mingoia

Hi Mandy! I'm watching right now. A little thing; when Daisy says "All bar one", and Alex says "Bar two", "bar" means "with the exception of". For example if I said I "I have all bar one of them", it means I have them all except one. At the start of one of the parts, where Greg is shouting "Come by! Away! Steady! Come by! Good boy!", he's doing an impression of a shepherd controlling a sheep dog. There used to be sheepdog trials (probably still are I imagine), a competition to find the best shepherd/sheepdog duo. Believe it or not, it was televised, but called "One Man and his Dog". It was actually quite a popular show in the days before the internet and only 4 TV channels. Yes, I'm old enough to remember that. Greg is appealing to the nostalgia of Brits of a certain age with that one. And yes, the cow was only put there at the start of season 10. Ollie was there before. Don't forget, the contestants aren't doing these tasks in the order you see them. They might have been seeing this cow for weeks by the time they did the vanishing task. Please try to not get upset about it. 😅

Graeme D

Richard Herring did say about this series that they all felt a little hysterical during the studio sections, since this was right after a covid lockdown and it was the first time most of them had been out anywhere for a while.

Chill Bill

I have struggled to watch much of series 10, 11 or 12. The Covid filming issues made them feel a bit flat to me. Looking forward to watching along though to see what I've missed
