All right!
Welcome, friends, to the seventh episode of Taskmaster.
My name's Jeremy Wells, and I am the Taskmaster.
Many months ago, I invited five comedians to attempt a series of tasks
I left for them at a secret location.
All of these tasks were designed to test them in unique ways,
and none involve any transferable skills they can bring over into real life.
At the end of the season, one competitor will be crowned Taskmaster Champion,
and they will receive this majestic head,
which they can surgically implant onto their neck or just put on a bookshelf.
Let's introduce our contestants. They are and always are
Angella Dravid
Brynley Stent
Guy Williams
Leigh Hart
and Madeleine Sami.
And to my left, a man who is in many ways the receptionist of Taskmaster,
nothing would get done without him. It's Paul Anthony Williams.
♪ It's the musical ♪
♪ episode, ♪
♪ where we sing instead of talking. ♪
No, we don't.
♪ Yes, we do. ♪
No, we don't.
♪ Yes, we do. ♪
No, we don't.
We don't.
We don't.
Paul, using your speaking voice,
please do us the honour of introducing this week's prize task.
Sure thing, Jeremy Wells.
Each contestant was asked to bring along something to contribute to our prize haul.
This week, we're after quite a specific prize-
the worst thing to show the Taskmaster.
- Ooh. - Ooh.
The Taskmaster will decide which prize is best,
or in this case, the worst thing to show him,
and that person will get five points.
The person with the most points at the end of the show
will walk away with all five things. Capeesh?
Is that to me?
- Yes. Capeesh? - Yes, capeesh.
Who's up first? Angella.
I brought a book
that's filled with comments of what Taskmaster's going to be like.
It's a bit- yeah.
So that's- that's one comment.
'Won't be as good as the UK one.'
'They chose someone who isn't remotely funny.'
That one's anonymous.
Oh, there's another one.
'I'm sure he's a nice guy,
but I personally think he is a reminder of how New Zealand needs to move on.'
Oof.
It's gonna be interesting to see the scoring tonight, Jeremy.
It's a good start to this prize task, you've gotta say. Leigh.
Yes.
- What did you bring in? - I don't think I can match that.
Look, I know you are a history fan, so what I've brought in is a bit of memorabilia.
It's this camera from the Hillary expedition, and
this may have dick pics from Sherpa Tensingon it.
So you're assuming this is something that I don't want to see.
At this stage, yeah.
Well, I think it's a good thing that you don't
see it, but they haven't been developed yet.
I don't know if they're on there. I'm just guessing if
they were gonna be anywhere, that's where they'd be.
And who knows. I think it's best.
It's like Pandora's Box. We leave that one shut.
So it's up to you what you do with it.
The power's in your hands, Jeremy.
Guy, what have you brought in that I don't wanna see?
My biggest fear is that people find out what my pillows look like
when they don't have the pillow cases on them,
cuz they are, like, absolutely horrific.
And so what I've done, bravely,
to win this task, I've actually pulled out one of my pillows
and brought it along today.
That's right. You hear that reaction? That's first place, baby.
Mads, do you think you can beat that?
I have brought in for you today
something I found in my mother's garage,
and that is approximately 300 fossilized daddy long-legs.
So that was just a disgusting thing. I hate spiders,
and I'm hoping that you hate spiders as much as I do.
Madeleine Sami, Te Karere.
Brynley, what did you bring in that I don't wanna see?
I wrote an email to a very close personal friend,
and I've got a lovely video for you.
Hello, New Zealand. It is I, the Taskmaster.
I've been asked to send a video saying what I think of Jeremy Wells.
Well, I'll tell you what I think of Mr. Wells.
I think he's doing a good job.
Or I did until I got this video request, because
it's a contestant attempting to humiliate you.
You gotta clamp down on these people, Jeremy.
Clamp down on them.
They're not there to have fun. Do you understand?
They're just comedians.
Shut them down and make them work.
I'll leave it at that. Don't make me come to New Zealand.
Gotta say, there's some pretty confronting stuff in there.
- Mm. - But I will take Greg's word for it there,
and I will come down hard on you, and I'm gonna give you one point.
Oh, mate!
When I saw the video, I thought that would happen, so...
- Mads, I actually love spiders. - Aargh, fuck it.
I love spiders,
so you get two points, cuz those things are amazing for the ecosystem.
- Three, Guy. - What?!
Well, I actually would quite like to spend a bit
of time on your pillow just for a couple of nights.
I could think of worse places to be.
I think you two are becoming the Paul and Angella of the live show.
Well, he's certainly fuckin' me, that's for sure.
Like, it's crazy. I got an audible groan from the audience.
This guy brought along some op-shop camera
and a bullshit story, and he's beaten me.
You got three points.
You should be happy with that. You normally get one.
Yeah.
Uh, Leigh, so you go and get four points,
cuz I thought yours was quite good,
and then, of course, Angella, whoa, that was brutal.
That was brutal. I mean, I don't even have an internet subscription
because I don't wanna read comments about me, so don't bring them in.
That is the last thing I wanna see, so definitely,
Angella, you get five points for that. Well done.
All right. Early scores, Paul.
Well, that puts Angella in the lead,
and if the Taskmaster hasn't seen enough already today,
we now have to show him some tasks.
Mm. I personally think tasks are the best thing to show the Taskmaster.
Ok. Let's play one, then. And this one is all about...
I'm not really sure. I wasn't there.
Ooh!
Paul?
Where's Paul?
Yeah, Paul's not here. Great Great start to the day
Paul!
Find Paul.
Well, that... that makes sense.
'Find Paul and hit him with this Frisbee.' Great. This is a dream.
'You may not walk or run while holding the Frisbee.'
'Every time you throw the Frisbee,
you must put on an additional item of clothing.'
'Fastest wins.'
'Your time starts now.'
Oh gosh. I don't know if he's outside or not.
So hard.
So, they're trying to hit you with a Frisbee.
Yes. And the smart thing to do would be to find me first without the Frisbee,
then return with the Frisbee to minimize Frisbee
throws and minimize the clothes you have to wear.
Did anyone actually do the smart thing?
- Maybe let's have a look. - Ok.
Yeah, I think let's have a look at Guy Williams and Leigh Hart.
Find Paul and hit him with the Frisbee.
You may not walk or run while holding the Frisbee.
Oh, so I throw the Frisbee and follow the Frisbee.
Slightly confusing again.
Oh! I just spend all my time just trying to figure out what the question is.
Every time you throw the Frisbee, you must put on an additional item of clothing.
Oh, I hate this, eh.
So I just run around looking for Paul? Paul?
Paul?
Paul?
Paul?
Paul? I don't really care to find him either.
I'm like, 'Oh well, if he's lost, he had a good run.'
He wasn't really contributing much to the show anyway.
God, he's good. Damn, he's good.
Paul! Come out here!
I'll fight you!
Shivers. I'm sorry about that.
The Frisbee is going to guide me to where Paul is.
Fuck. That's, like, the main place I've searched as well.
All right. Put on a wacky hat.
Continue my quest for Paul.
That takes me back. Ok.
Paul!
Please!
Ple-e-e-e-ease!
Sorry to the sound man about that one.
Actually, not sorry. Fuck you for making this shit game.
Ah! I see him. It was the first place I was going to look, actually.
I didn't think you'd be that stupid to come down here. It's too obvious.
Hey, Paul. I found you.
Good to see you, mate. How'd I not find you earlier? All right.
You might wanna switch the cameras off, cuz as
soon as I get to him with this fucking Frisbee,
I'm gonna physically assault him.
Fuck.
Ooh, here we go. This is a nice little number.
I went out there with a game plan - find Paul.
And I'm executing it to perfection.
These are quite cool shorts, actually. I might
steal these just for my personal life.
All right. Try and hit Paul in the tree.
It's gonna have to be a big throw.
Damn it.
Fuck.
Don't take it personally.
I did it.
Hoorah!
Now I leave with my dignity.
Haven't got a spare one of those, have ya?
I can pour you one, yeah.
Always tastes better when you earned it.
So, Guy, you honestly thought that you left with some dignity.
After watching back, no.
That was honestly one of the worst things I've ever done.
It was so long and so boring and so hard.
And there was no prize at the end except meeting my own brother sitting in a tree.
I sat in that tree for 42 minutes and 56 seconds.
And this might be giving away too much, but no one
took longer to do any other task that we will see.
Oh my God.
- Well done. - Hey, you get a clap.
A little side note as well - when he pushed over that suit of Armour,
it cost production $654 to repair the damage done to that.
To be honest, there's just a few too many fun-filled threats of violence
coming from you for my liking.
I think you're learning a lot about yourself in this show.
I feel like this has stopped being a comedy show and started being an intervention.
- Brynley, he is learning nothing. - If anything, I got dumber.
How many minutes did Leigh take?
Leigh took 26 minutes and 27 seconds.
- Oh, so it's a lot better than Guy. - It is, yeah.
Who will hit Paul with a Frisbee the fastest?
Find out this important information and at least four other things
when Taskmaster returns right after some ads.
Welcome back.
This is Taskmaster. When we last left you,
five talented comedians were battling it out
to see who could hit Paul Williams with a Frisbee
the fastest and hardest.
Anything to add to that, Paul?
Hitting me hardest is not part of it, but apart from that, spot on.
The aim of the game is to find me and hit me with a Frisbee.
Only catch is you can't walk with the Frisbee,
and every time you throw it, you have to put on clothes.
Like strip poker, but reverse, and there's a Frisbee,
and I'm there, and I'm in the tree.
All right. Enough about that. Who are we watching next?
It's the first two alphabetically, and seating arrangement-betically.
It's Angella and Brynley.
Oh, ok. So I can't be holding the Frisbee.
Ok. Ooh, shit!
That was not meant to happen.
♪ Din-na-na-na-na, na-na. ♪
So I can kick it.
Paul!
All right. Back that way.
Well, it doesn't say I can't crawl anywhere.
Ok. Here goes.
Paul?
Damn it!
Paul?
He wouldn't be under there. He likes to be clean.
Ok.
Paul!
Marco!
Polo.
Oh!
Damn it!
Is this the only task today?
Oh!
God, that gave me an absolute horrible fright.
- Hello, Brynley. - Stay there, Paul. I'm getting my Frisbee.
I found him! He's so scary.
He looks like a little ghost girl.
Oh, ok.
Hello, Angella.
- Hello. How are you? - Good, thank you.
Ok.
Is that walking?
It has the word 'walking' in it.
Ok, this is- this is crawling. That doesn't have the word 'walk' in it.
- What are you doing? - Just having a picnic.
- It's really pretty here. - Yeah. I like it.
- Thank you, Brynley. - Thank you, Paul.
Oh!
Thank you, Angella.
It was a task; I didn't just hit you randomly.
- I know. - Yeah.
What do you mean by Paul looked like a little ghost girl?
He's got a certain, I don't know, spirit about him that...
Very pretty boy, aren't you? Yeah.
So, Angella hit me in 19 minutes and 57 seconds.
Brynley, 16 minutes, four seconds, so that's currently the time to beat.
Well, I wanna have a chat about the way that Angella transported the Frisbee.
You know I don't really care about the points. I'm not really about the points.
But it's going to be very interesting to see how
you interpret both those efforts, to be honest.
Because, I mean, if you put, say, a Frisbee in a
bag, then you would be still carrying it in a bag.
So if you put it down your top, you're still carrying it.
Yeah, I thought I was wearing it.
Cuz you don't carry a bra.
I actually think Angella should be disqualified for this,
cuz I think I think she carried- I think she carried the Frisbee with her.
Why are people groaning for her? She's in the lead, and she's blatantly cheating.
I'm gonna have to agree with Guy on this one. It's not about the points, though.
All right, one more task, then, is it, Paul?
We have one more competitor, yes,
and that is Madeleine Sami. 16:04 is the time to beat.
I may not walk or run.
Didn't say anything about riding a bike, did it?
Paul!
Paul!
Paul!
Oh, this is quite good to get my exercise in, actually.
I might just set this to outdoor cycle.
There he is!
Ooh, shit. Ooh, these brakes aren't very good, guys.
I'm gonna have to go a bit off-road.
- Hello, Madeleine. - Hi.
- Thank you, Madeleine. - Thanks, Paul.
I'm just gonna go- cuz I'm only done two minutes of my fitness ride,
so I'm gonna try and get a bit of fitness in.
Whoo!
Wow! I take my hat off.
Oh, why, thank you.
Smart thinking with the bike, Madeleine.
Yeah, well, I don't know if I've talked about this enough,
but I was dux Ludorum,
which was the dux of sports, at Onehunga High School in 1997.
And I was trying to get some fitness in, which I did.
And once again, the shed of hope prevails. You gotta go to the shed.
You gotta go to the shed.
- How long did Madeleine take? - Madeleine took 8:57.
- Well done. - Thank you.
Very good. Very good.
- 34 minutes faster than Guy. - Ok, how are the scores?
Well, it depends. Are you going to disqualify Angella?
Yes.
What about Brynley with her crab walking?
- It was very short. - When he told me off, I changed.
- She did change it very, very quickly. - Yeah.
I feel like I got a problem with this.
Me and Leigh are here playing by the rules.
Look, you didn't come last in this.
Yeah, second to last.
- Yeah. That's better than normal. - Yeah.
So, how did we go there in the end?
So, zero points for Angella. One point for Guy.
- Whoa! - Oi! Shh. One.
Three points for Leigh.
Four for Brynley. And five for our winner, Madeleine Sami.
Fitness.
And how does that effect the overall scores?
We have a two-way tie between Madeleine and Leigh on seven points.
Now, Paul, I can think of only one thing that will make this day better.
I feel what you're putting out. It's time for another task.
Cooee!
- Hello, Madeleine. - Hi, Paul.
How's it goin'?
- Good, thank you. - Good.
Ooh! It's a bit of a mystery.
- Do you want me to open the suitcase? - Yes, please.
Ok.
Have you hidden the- some sort of trick here?
No.
- Trick suitcase? - Regular suitcase.
Is the challenge 'open the suitcase as quick as possible'?
- No. There's those two round bits, - Yeah.
...push those outwards.
- Ooh. It's like a trick suitcase. - It's a regular suitcase.
No, it's trick.
Everyone who comes and does this must struggle with that.
Ooh!
And all that just to get one thing.
Ridiculous. Ok. Here we are.
'Go on the most convincing fake holiday.'
'Most convincing fake holiday wins.'
'You have 30 minutes.'
'Your time starts now.'
A fake holiday.
A reminder, of course,
that these tasks were filmed before the COVID-19 pandemic,
and now all holidays have become fake holidays.
If anyone would like a non-fake holiday,
it's time for a real holiday from this show.
It's three minutes long, and it's amongst the tropical surroundings of an ad break.
We'll see you shortly.
Welcome back to Taskmaster,
where five comedians are fighting head over foot to win Guy Williams' manky pillow.
Paul, just how are they going about winning?
Right now, the task is to go on a fake holiday.
Ok. Where are we going first?
You may have heard of this guy. It's not that Guy, it's That Guy.
Leigh Hart.
I mean, why fake? Why not just go on a...
It'd be quite hard to go on an actual holiday in 30 minutes.
- Don't know about that. - Where would you go in 30 minutes?
Always wanted to go on a caravan sort of holiday.
You stay where you are, though. I'll have a think
and see what I can come up with
on that front.
Leigh?
Leigh?
- Yeah, mate? - What's going on?
I thought you could do with a bit of holiday yourself, mate
just getting away from all this.
Different perspective, you know?
Beautiful. That's the spot. That's the spot.
What are we doing?
Like I said, I thought we'd get you away from it all for a bit.
Thought we could catch up, get to know each other a bit better.
Have a seat plus a couple of beers.
- There you go, mate. - All right. I don't drink.
Oh, ok.
I mean, would you call that a fake holiday or
just a real one that only lasted a few minutes?
Oh, it's like sex, isn't it? Is it fake? Is it real? Who knows.
I enjoyed it.
Well, actually, once you actually arrived,
you seemed like you enjoyed it. You didn't seem like you enjoyed the trip much.
Yeah, the trip was stressful, but... yeah. It was quite short.
We holidayed about 150 meters away from where we were.
Who else have you got for me?
I call her the Holiday Inn, because she's always holidayin'. She's...
She's like holiday... It's Brynley Stent.
- All right. I've got a good idea. - Ok.
- Road trip. - Ok.
Road trip!
Road trip!
Gate, gate, gate.
- Gate, gate, gate. - Oh, I swear...
We're going on a quintessential Kiwi road trip all the way to Bluff, baby.
Um, yeah, I want it to be the quintessential road trip movie. You know?
- Mm-hm. - Got your music playing.
Do you know what else is a quintessential road trip thing?
Yelling, 'Live while we're young,' out of an open window.
Yeah!
Live while we're young!
Sorry.
There's a man there.
Oh my gosh. Look at the beautiful New Zealand scenery.
Makes me appreciate this country even more.
Oh, whoa! There's the Lemon & Paeroa statue now!
Oh my God, Paul, and there are the Tirau corrugated iron dog and sheep.
Whoa! It's the Beehive!
- Wow. - Hi, Jacinda!
♪ 99 bottles of beer ♪ ♪ on the wall. ♪
♪ 99 bottles of beer. ♪
Look! A dairy! Hey, Paul. Do you wanna pull over and grab an ice cream?
I know where we are. This is Bluff. We made it to the end of the South Island.
Oh, nice.
Ice cream! Ice cream! Ice cream! Ice cream! Ice cream! Ice cream!
It seemed like you had quite a good time. It seemed like a chant-based holiday to me.
Yeah, there were a lot of chants.
So, did you have a good time?
- I did, yeah. - Yeah.
Had to buy my own ice cream, but that's fine.
Ok.
I didn't bring my wallet; he bought mine too.
- Classic. That's classic. - Yeah. Yeah.
Right, who have we got next?
Up next, we've got two similar approaches from Madeleine Sami and Guy Williams.
We're gonna do a kind of Christian camp holiday vibe.
You're in charge of taking the Instagram pics.
And, uh, first stop - kayaking merrily down the river.
Whoo!
Just wanna get a few little angles.
Here I come.
Heaps of shots.
Also, what's in this water, eh?
Like, is this water health and safety- like, a health and safety issue?
- Can I borrow your pants? - You wanna borrow my pants?
- For a golf style, yeah- golf shot. - Ok.
It's just more golfy if I've got some pants, that's all.
Always the tongue out, eh, on like- in Instagram pose. Like...
♪ Friends are like flowers in the garden of love. ♪
All right. I'm gonna get these all ready for Instagram.
Ok, now what do I gotta do - post it?
And tag in the location - Coatesville.
Coatesville. Is that a place people go holiday?
'Living life to the fullest at Coatesville Christian Camp.' #SponsoredPost.
I'm not sure how convincing my hashtags are.
#holiday
#kayak
#river
- Thank you. - Thank you, Guy.
And thank you to the Coatesville Christian Camp.
No mention of God on...
any of your moments of your holiday at all at the Christian camp.
I didn't say I was Christian; I was just crashing a Christian camp.
And not only did I have a great time at the Christian camp,
but I also took those photos and actually uploaded them to my Instagram.
Yeah, let's have a look at the posts.
I got three shots. That's the first one.
Me having a great time fishing on the river.
And then also me just chilling at the end of the day,
- having a jam... - Oh, nice.
...with no mates, much like my normal holidays.
And this got 1,700 likes on Instagram,
including a few people saying it was 'an amazing holiday'.
Shall we have a look at Madeleine's?
There you go. Went with a classic Shaka.
I did feel very bad that some dear friends who aren't in on the joke,
like Jaquie Brown off the television, went, 'Oh, yeah, I love kayaks.'
- She also had the musician Benee. - Oh!
The actor-comedian Aubrey Plaza
- from Parks and Recreation. - Whoa!
- And All Blacks first five Richie Mo'unga. - Richie Mo'unga? Wow.
That's quite good.
I am so fuckin' famous. I don't need this show.
See ya later, everyone. I'm gonna go hang out with Benee. Sorry.
For Guy's likes, I just wrote 'mainly 14-year-old boys'.
Sick. I'll take it.
Who's left, Paul?
We have one more trip, and it's Angella Dravid,
and she's kind of made a travel blog kind of vibe. I'll show it to you. Here it is.
I'm waiting for the train, and, uh...
Oh, this is it here.
See you.
Aargh!
Aah!
Yeah.
I gotta say, as this series has gone on, your
acting has just gone from strength to strength.
For me, that train sequence
when you were waiting for the train, and then you went on,
that was a very high standard right there.
Would you like to see a little behind-the-scenes magic?
- Oh, give me more of that. Give me more. - Ok.
How are we gonna make this look like a train?
You could just say you're waiting for the train.
I'm waiting for the train, and, uh...
Oh, this is it here.
See you.
You need to get movement. So...
This is great.
Do you want me to make sound effects or...?
Yeah.
- Right. I think that's all. Yeah. - Pardon?
- That was it. - Ok.
This kind of looks like a plane window.
We've got a flight. We've got a train.
Passport. I don't have a passport.
- Ready? - Mm-hm.
Yeah.
- You happy with that? - Yeah.
Ok. Thank you, Angella.
Wow. So, I think we've gotta score these, don't we?
Yes.
For me, Mads and Guy, I think one point each. I think it was ok.
What??
- Ouch! - But I think they were too similar.
And also I'm just concerned about what's happening at the moment.
I wanna send a really, really clear message to our young viewers
around what to do around fake Instagram posts.
I think people have gotta be very careful of social media in the current climate.
Leigh and Brynley, I think you guys deserve three points each.
I think going on a holiday - a real holiday - was quite something.
And I think Angella, to be fair, five points for you,
cuz that was quite a video that you put together.
After all this holidaying, we've deserved a break,
so let's take one. We'll see you in a few minutes.
Welcome back. I'm still Jeremy Wells, and I'm still the Taskmaster.
Tonight, we watch in awe as five competitive comics battle it out
to take home a picture of spiders from Madeleine Sami's house.
Paul, I was just thinking during the ad break I would love to see another task.
I'm glad, because I have one for you, and it features some little guests.
Aw.
Hello!
Hello.
Hello.
Hello.
- Hello. - Hi.
- Hello, Leigh. - Hi. How are you going?
How's it going? Sorry about whatever this is.
Ok. I'm just gonna read this task.
'Paint the Taskmaster.'
'Your painting must trick the Taskmaster'
'into thinking it was painted by a 5-year-old.'
'Your painting will be compared with this 5-year-old's painting.
You cannot look at their painting.'
'Best painted portrait that tricks the Taskmaster wins.'
'You have 10 minutes. The child also has 10 minutes. Your time starts now.'
Ok. Arlia, we've got some painting to do.
Nice to meet you, mate. What's your name?
- Leah. - Leah. Oh, I'm Guy.
Do you wanna shake my hand?
No? Ok.
Here we go, Leah. All right. Your time starts now. Let's do it.
So, the way this works - each contestant is paired
with a child. Both of them try and paint you.
After each pair, we'll show you both paintings, and
you guess which one is painted by the contestant.
If you guess wrong, you've been successfully tricked.
Right. So we're about to look at some paintings
of me by five comedians and five 5-year-olds.
I have just thought of 10 worse things to show the Taskmaster right there.
First up, we have Madeleine, Leigh, and Brynley.
Well, I'm not a very good artist, so I don't think this is gonna be very hard.
I can obviously look at Paul. Ok.
- You c- You can look at me. - Yeah.
- Yeah. - Ok.
Ooh, so delicate. I feel like maybe he's better than I'm giving him credit for.
- I'm not looking at his painting. - What are you looking at?
- His brush. - His brush is very close to the painting.
I just saw the brush. I didn't see a thing of the painting.
Watch yourself, Sami.
Are you much of a painter, Leigh?
I painted our wash house recently, but, um,
wife came home and changed all the colours again. You know?
Had to restart, then she got a guy in. Bit of a waste of time in the end, but...
Braxton, what do you wanna be when you grow up?
- A pilot. - A pilot?
- Yeah. - That's a great choice.
Can I give you a piece of advice?
Oh, no? Ok. Fair.
20 seconds left.
I've kinda wrecked it a bit with my final touches, but, um...
You're looking at me a lot.
Time's up.
How do you think that went?
Must be like how da Vinci felt if he woke up and just finished the Mona Lisa
if he'd had a massive night and was extremely hungover
and power-chundered all over it.
But, um, yeah, no, I'm happy with that.
How do you think you've gone, Madeleine?
I dunno. I just really wanna be Ben's best friend,
and if we both didn't have to concentrate as much
as we had to in that task, we would be best friends.
Hey, good luck with the piloting. Don't become a comedian.
- He didn't ask for your advice. - Savage, Paul.
No, he said he didn't want it.
You should get into comedy. It's a lot of money.
I think he's painted me.
Yeah, he's painted me.
He was supposed to paint him.
Aw! It was so cute.
- Ok. Let's have a look at them. - Up first, we have Madeleine Sami.
- Oh. - Whoa!
I'm gonna say that that one there on the left is Madeleine's,
and that one there on the right is the 5-year-old's.
Let's see.
Yup. Ok.
- Not bad, though. Not bad, Mads. - Maybe I am quite artistic, hey.
- Let's take a look at Brynley's. - Ok. Ok.
Ok, this is good, Brynley. This is good. This is good.
Whoof!
Oh my goodness me.
That one's Brynley's, and that yellow one is the 5-year-old's. That's my guess.
You are...
- correct. - Oh! That was hard.
- We got any more? - Yes, here's Leigh Hart.
Oh, for God's sake.
Even Leonardo was not painting like that at 5.
That's clearly Leigh on the right, and that's the 5-year-old on the left.
Although, you gotta say - nice painting, the one on the left.
Don't be fooled, Jeremy, by what you see there. I mean...
I think the fact that you've painted Paul is a dead giveaway.
Yeah.
To be fair, I didn't quite understand the task.
Who are we going to next, God help us?
- You ready for some more painting? - I'm as ready as I'll ever be.
- What was your name? - Quinn.
Mine's Angella.
- I already know that. - Oh, ok.
Does Leah know what Jeremy Wells looks like?
- Leah, have you seen Seven Sharp before? - No.
No, you haven't, have you?
So, just to be clear, the task is to paint the Taskmaster.
Are you painting the Taskmaster?
No?
Ooh-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo. Looks like old Guy's in trouble.
- Hey, have you drawn clothes? - I'm drawing a strawberry.
- Oh, ok. - It's pink and red.
- What other colours is it? - It's pink and red and white.
Leah, who's your favourite princess in Frozen?
Elsa.
Elsa? Oh, Elsa's great. Do you like Moana?
Who's your favourite Moana in Moana?
- Moana. - Moana! Yeah!
All right!
I guessed that.
- Do you have some black on there as well? - Yes.
- Great. - Why?
Oh, just making sure that we match.
30 seconds.
Your painting must trick the Taskmaster
into thinking it was painted by a 5-year-old.
How old are you?
I'm 7.
You're 7?
I heard you were 5.
- Are you lying to me? - No.
- Leah? - No.
Leah, how old are you?
- I'm 10. - You're 10! Well you're getting older now.
How do you think you've done, Angella?
Um, I think I've done terribly. I've got a strawberry as well.
- Thank you, Angella. - Thank you.
Thank you, Leah. Bye.
What are we gonna do next?
That was a smart play from Angella there.
Do you manipulate children often?
She was so harsh. It was like being in... high school.
She was 5.
Yeah, but she had that, like, Mean Girls thing.
Shall we take a look at Angella's painting?
Yes, let's have a look at Angella's painting.
Ooh! Ok.
Wow. All right.
Well, I mean, this painting on the left
has got quite a lot of artistic merit, to be honest.
I- That's yours, Angella, that one there, and that's the 5-year-old's.
That is...
- incorrect. - Ohhh!
Shot, Ange.
I painted with my left hand
because I wanted it to look like someone who was struggling.
I didn't realise that she was an artist.
- So, what about Guy? - Here's Guy's painting.
That's good stuff.
That's you on the right there, Guy, definitely - a giant head in a frame.
- That is correct. - Yeah.
Well done.
Well, I actually thought that
your painting partner was not as mean to you as Guy's.
Guy's painting partner, she wouldn't shake his hand.
First rule I learnt as a kid was never shake an unknown man's hand.
I wasn't unknown. I'm Guy!
- Yeah, but everyone's a guy. - Yeah, that's true.
Yeah, I'd definitely be sus about an old man that
said to me, 'Who's your favourite Moana in Moana?'
And, let's be honest, you know, you had just been on a Christian camp.
Ok, so the scores are - Leigh you've- one point for you.
- Thanks, mate. - Cuz yours was quite something, actually.
- Brynley, two points for you. - Oh!
Guy's... not as high-quality, so that gets three points.
Yes!
And then Mads with four, and then Angella with five. Very well done, Angella.
That is the end of the fourth part of our show.
We'll be back with a 100% child-free live task
to cap off the evening. We'll see you soon.
Welcome back to episode seven of Taskmaster.
We're all dying to find out who gets to walk home
with Guy William's manky old pillow.
Paul, do tell us who is in the lead.
Currently in the lead with 15 points - Angella Dravid.
Very close, though. It's anyone's game, except for Guy, who's on eight points.
But will Angella Dravid hold on to that lead after a live task?
Let's find out by heading to the stage.
What is going on here, Paul?
Jeremy, what's going on is I'm about to ask Brynley to read a task.
- Brynley, would you please read this task? - Yes. Gladly, Paul.
'Sculpt the third most impressive dog. You may only use your sculpting clay.'
'The third most impressive clay dog wins. You have 100 seconds.'
So, it's just your classic impressive dog sculpting competition.
So, the winner will receive five points,
and by winner, I mean the person who makes the third most impressive dog.
And then does it go down from there, so-
No. Five points for the winner; none for anyone else.
- We're all on the same page. - Yep.
- We're all ready to sculpt. - Yep.
- How long we got? How long we got? - You've got 81 seconds.
What are you thinking, Guy?
I'm thinking I was born to do this, and I'm ready to win.
You don't wanna win; you wanna come third.
Shit.
Have you sculpted many dogs before?
I have, actually. I used to run a sculpting course for people,
and this is one of the things we used to teach them.
You've got 45 seconds to go.
- Looking not too impressive, Madeleine. - Thank you.
15 seconds.
5 seconds.
The audience were really pumped for one of them. They were like, 'Ohhh!' What was it?
- I think it was Leigh's dog. - Leigh's.
In this task, you don't really want the audience to be pumped for you at all.
I'm ready to gaze upon some mildly impressive dogs. Come on down.
Take a seat, and let's find out who made the best dog,
then give that idiot zero points.
There were some pretty middling dogs in that lot, weren't there, Paul?
- Yes, there were. Here's the first dog. - Ok. It's...
So, this is Angella's dog.
That looks like it came out the arse of a dog.
- Ok. Who else have we got next? - Up next, this is Brynley's dog.
So, that's either an Afghan hound or a standard poodle.
Yeah. Yeah.
- Here's Guy Williams' dog. - Awwww.
Well, that for me is West Highland terrier, absolutely through and through.
- That's pretty good, I reckon. - Well, that's not good.
- What about Leigh Hart's effort? - Here's Leigh's dog.
It's a beagle wearing goggles.
Oh God, it's screaming.
It's like, 'Kill me!'
- Madeleine Sami's effort. - Yeah.
Well, you don't want it to be too good, do you?
So, I reckon the best dog,
- out of that lot... - No.
- ...is Guy Williams. - No! No! No!
No!
- That's only fair. - Mine was so bad!
- Aw, it's cute. It's cute. - It's cute.
I think the worst dog would have to be Angella's,
- Oh, wow. - to be honest.
It's more like a crocodile. It's some kind of amphibious creature.
Slightly faecal. I don't know. That's not a dog for me.
Ok, so that's best and worst. The second best dog,
fair to say is Brynley's dog, which, to me,
looks like quite a nice standard poodle or Afghan hound, as I said.
I can't help my artistic talent.
Ok, so, we've got second.
Who is third - that is the question.
Just to add a little more tension, the winner of these two will win the episode.
Ooh!
Ok, I need to see Leigh and Madeleine's dogs again, I think. It's only fair.
- Is that dog better than... - Yes!
- It's definitely Leigh's dog, isn't it? - Yeah.
Leigh, you've won this. Congratulations.
So where does that leave us overall? I'm talking long term here.
Currently in second place - Madeleine with 108.5.
And in first place is Angella Dravid on 113.
Wow. Huge.
And who has won our episode tonight, Paul?
He nicked it with one point on the last task - Leigh Hart.
What a rewarding hour of television it's been.
We've learned that overseas travel is possible in 2020,
you just need a Bunnings lawn chair.
We've learned that children paint like children much better than adults.
And, yes, we've learned that our winner for episode seven
is Leigh Hart. Congratulations.
Some terrible prizes await you, Leigh.
Go revel in your haul, and most importantly,
get those prizes out of my sight. Good on ya.
We'll see ya next week. Thanks for joining us.
'Get someone you went to primary school with on the phone.'
'Fastest wins. Your time starts now.'
Guy Williams has the massive advantage of sitting opposite his brother,
who, surely, he went to primary school with.
Who'd I go to primary school with who I still know now?
