Get This Potato In The Golf Hole Without Touching The Green - FULL TASK

A very controversial Taskmaster ruling over who throws a potato in a golf hole the fastest.
------------

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

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.

The sincerity in his voice when he said "please don't take it away from me" though

[benallain]

From Katherine being moved to tears about hating sports, to Jon's gnome-running, to Joe burying the potato, the gloating, the reveal, the desperation, the vote, then to Doc's "that is harsh"...this is the task that keeps on giving.

Catherine's breakdown was incredible.
Also Joe Willkinson's tragedy was compounded by the fact that Joe brought his wedding certificate as prize.

*starts to push carpet* alright so im going to tie a string to the potato

“Without touching the red green”
Color blind people: the what

[Discrimination_is_not_a_right]

"The red green". Some things are truly language-specific.

Joe Wilkinson and the potato is the best moment in Taskmaster history for me

[AnaMaria-eiib]

Katherine's breakdown is my favorite moment of Taskmaster. So much emotion over something so simple. A lifetime of repressed frustration let out over a potato (not) going in a hole.

My favorite part is that Joe starts to say "If I don't get it-" and just decides "Best not miss, then."

[AndrewFoush]

Imagine getting hugs and a giant audience clapping for you, just for throwing a potato into a hole.

[PokerJoker]

Say what you will about Joe Wilkinson, the man knows how to grovel.

[TheRepublicOfJohn]

Can we just take a second to appreciate Richard Osman offering to cede his 5 points to Joe? He did stuff like that a bunch of times in the series... a class act

[Lykarn]

James Acaster would of just walked over and put the potatoe in the hole and been like I didn't touch the red green my shoes did.

[ellastarburst]

The fact that Joe didn't get his points is honestly the biggest letdown in human history.

[jameshunsucker]

I can just hear Sean Locke "Im sorry, but as a stickler for the rules..."

[firebirdude]

I'm amazed everyone used a long object to retrieve the potato for another throw, but nobody thought to just use the long object to push the potato in the hole!

[DaftJokr]

Everyone sold this so well, this is what happens when you let people interact with each other and they aren't constantly scripted word for word. British audiences really have it good

[daftyfunky]

Doc's "that is harsh" at the end was the cherry on top of this episode.

[cdoakley]

This is, for me, one of the best bits of television I've ever seen. The whole set up from start to finish - the way the audience is allowed to see replay after replay to build up the magnificence of Joe's throw, the let down of seeing his foot on the mat, the voting to decide whether the result should stand - everything was done sublimely. I will never get tired of seeing this... it's quite simply magnificent. Well done to all concerned. 👍

I've never wanted Joe Wilkinson to have something more in my entire life.
