Series 8 Complete Outtakes | Taskmaster

The funniest moments from Series 8, featuring Iain Stirling, Joe Thomas, Lou Sanders, Paul Sinha and Sian Gibson, that ended up on the cutting room floor.

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.

Honestly, Iain's development over the series; from a man who was so cock-sure, to a man who was beaten down by his own arrogance, is truly the best character progression I've ever seen.

[lamwingsum]

Lou going "oh is it me again?" and does a cartwheel? honestly that's the vibe we are going for

[belindawilliams]

Iain randomly shouting "daddy!" in one episode makes a little more sense now 😂

[namenamename]

11:17 "If he shouted in a cave there wouldn't be an echo" Potentially one of the hardest roasts of Alex that didn't come from Greg

[FountainOfYoot]

The segment of Alex's lack of shouting brought me to tears

[mushmello]

I absolutely love Alex singing "John, my friend". It's so dumb yet makes so much sense

[felipemaldonado]

' sorry I've run out of effort' lol

[jackwang]

I'm still wondering if Alex has recovered from Lou signing him up for all those crazy classes and subscriptions and cults...

[djvWOODSTOCK]

They legitimately cut out so much of Iain's best stuff.

[MontyMonferno]

it’s amazing how often Iain mispronounces words on this show, it’s not just sangwich, but also clrisps, chuutney, and alternatehly, it’s adorable<3

[maxwell_edison]

Taskmaster would be beloved as a livestream with no cuts

[zyaicob]

"Is it me again?"
*Cartwheel*

Lou is just the best ever 1:58

[Phil_Cleaver]

“I don’t do it on porpoise” 9:26
Greg and Alex missed that one.

[gordondouglas]

I love that Paul sang. Seems very unlike him.

[kalindastrome]

Truly a season of self discovery for iain

[Jaspers]

Lou singing sounded exactly like I expected it to sound.

[gianabakanos]

‘i bet if he shouted in a cave there wouldn’t be an echo’ oh little alex horne

[FangToh]

The sexual tension between Iain and Greg was palpable! 😂

[brendanberry]

Kind of funny to see Joe absolutely losing it because he seemed so stiff the whole time.

[amareyez]

“[physical touch] is unnecessary, innit” possibly the most English thing I’ve ever heard 😂😂
