Greg's special crumpet technique boosts Daisy's prize task. #taskmaster

------------

------------

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.

Greg was uncharacteristically like Alex in this moment. The way he casually described his genius and "unique" method of such an ordinary task. Totally an Alex thing.

> Goes to Taskmaster
> Brings in a crumpet
> Refuses to elaborate further
> Leaves

The audience's after Greg bragging about his crumpet setting is just delightful.

[Koopatroop]

This is the most British conversation I’ve ever heard

[homagetogorto]

A single-word prize task can sometimes win. “Soap.“

[BobHenderson-drwy]

someone yelling "Why is there crumbs all over the butter!", now we know why...

[iliketrains]

I love that Mawaan is tied with Steve Pemberton for highest prize task score simply by being a bit less shit than everyone else in this series.

[FroisonControl]

"thats how you butter everything" lmao

[HarryyyyyyyH]

The funniest thing about that task was the fact that Johnny Vegas (I think that's how u spell his name) was the only person left after Daisy (person who brought in crumpet) and Greg was praying he'd brought in something decent, only for Johnny to say he'd brought in a teabag 💀

Loved this group, all she did was load up her prize task bag with stuff from the kitchen! 😂

[angemaidment]

“You can never burn a crumpet in a toaster”. Easiest way to do it, in my opinion. I’d rather have an English muffin 🤣🤣🤣

[simonmccormickphotography]

I still use the GDBM (Greg Davies Buttering Method) on crumpets, to this day.

[readytrivedi]

We all know Greg doesn’t take off the lump of butter once it’s on.

We know, Greg.

[superd]

Greg's quick little quip of "last place" kills me, every time 😂.... He's the greatest

[SuidicalRaccoon]

So he burned the crumpet while he has a crumpet setting

[TeWhero]

This season is one of my favourite in studio cast. Lockdown would have something to do with it everyone being able to be around others after being isolated for so long.

[SingleMaltIdiot]

It’s a weird sort of power move in a task like this isn’t it?
“Crumpets”
Show picture of a crumpet
Make no attempt to explain further
Move on

It's so interesting watching all these people grow old in front of my eyes. Being not from England I first encountered most of these taskmaster contestants on QI back when the show first started being uploaded to YT. And that led to falling into a deep deep rabbit hole of culture shock and comedy with me watching WILTY, 8/10 Cats Does Countdown, The Mitchell and Webb Look, 8/10 Cats it's self, Dabbled a bit in Only Connect and then realised I'm way too dumb for it and all of it has led me here about fifteen years later watching these comedians go grey and do stupid stuff at the behest and command of Greg Davies. Such a world.

I usually make two crumpets. Get the large amount of butter and spread it on one crumpet, kinda like a butter mountain. Then I get the other crumpet and place it on top of the buttered crumpet and sort of twist it so they both get an even distribution.

This series's prize tasks are the best with how shitty they all are hshsbsn
