Taskmaster

Like a particularly fair magistrate, Taskmaster Greg Davies perches on his big chair and passes judgement on what number-cruncher Alex Horne has placed before him. Unlike a magistrate, Greg is faced with things like Babátúndé Aléshé shouting about a fortune cookie, Emma Sidi learning about perspective, and Andy Zaltzman prophesying the end of the world. Meanwhile, Rosie Jones feels badly let down by her teammate, Jack Dee.

Prize task: The object that is bigger than your head, that you would most like to carry with you for the rest of your life, if you had to carry an object with you for the rest of your life.

- Emma Sidi: A large hat, inside of which is moisturiser cream. - 5
- Andy Zaltzman: A rhino head the fires cricket balls out of its mouth. - 4
- Rosie Jones: A giant papier-mache Greg head. - 4
- Jack Dee: A guitar, which he uses to perform a song about his prize. - 3
- Babatunde Aleshe: A subwoofer speaker. - 2

Task 1: Ring the bell. You may not look up. Fewest ropes pulled wins. You have a maximum of ten minutes. Your time start5 now.

- Emma: 1 rope pulled. - 4
- Babatunde and Jack: All 10 ropes pulled. - 3
- Andy: Fails to ring the bell. - 0

Task 2: Work out what is in the box. You must not look, feel or inspect the box in any way. Your teammate must not show you the contents of the box. They may only make silent facial expressions, unless answering Alex's questions. Your teammate must not nod or shake their head. Fastest to work out what's in the box wins. Your time starts and ends on Alex's whistle. [Rule only for Andy and Jack: You must lie throughout the next task. Every time you tell the truth, everyone in your team will lose an actual Taskmaster point. Your time starts when you walk into the task room, and ends when you leave after the task is complete.]

- Andy, Babatunde and Emma: 38 minutes. - 5
- Jack and Rosie: Disqualified for Jack making noises and for nodding/shaking his head. Also, Jack told the truth three times. Rosie wore the hotdog joker outfit, but negative points were not doubled. - -3
