[ID: Five screencaps from Taskmaster. Kumail Nanjiani sits at a table with a remote control in each hand. Holding one up, he asks, "Is it a mistake that this one doesn't have batteries?" From off-screen, Alex Horne replies, "We don't make mis... We don't make mistakes." Kumail says, "That was a mistake. You saying we don't make mistakes, you made a mistake." Alex says, "We rarely make mistakes." End ID.]

[ID: Eight screencaps from Taskmaster. Joel Dommett reaches up one finger to burst a floating bubble, then looks around open-mouthed and ecstatically happy. Later, in the studio, Greg Davies says, "I'm just enchanted, watching Joel do anything, really, because he throws himself into it with such glee. And then every now and again, I just go, 'Oh, my God, he's 40!'" Joel says cheerfully, "Yeah. Mad, isn't it? I pay a mortgage." End ID.]

[ID: Three screencaps from Taskmaster. Armando Iannucci is in a living room, next to a blender on a table. He says, "Right. If I turn that on..." On the other side of the room is a CRT TV.

End ID.]

[ID: Seven screencaps from Taskmaster. Armando Iannucci says, "It's a Braille menu to an Indian restaurant." The studio screen shows the menu in question.

It may not be funny, but it's very clever." End ID.]

[ID: Nine screencaps from Taskmaster. Amy Gledhill says, "Can I just ask what hirsute means?" Greg Davies replies, "Hairy." Amy says brightly, "Hairy! OK, that's all right." Alex Horne asks, "What did you think it might have meant?" Looking thoughtful, Amy says, "More... I'm trying to think of a better word for open. But hairy's fine. That's good." Greg says, "You thought that Alex wanted ladies to be a little more dilated?" Amy leans forward in her seat, laughing. End ID.]

[ID: Six screencaps from Taskmaster. Alex Horne announces to the camera, "And I want to say hello to all my people watching at home. I see you and you see me, and you like puzzles.

Armando Iannucci bites the edge of the room's doorway. End ID.]

[ID: Six screencaps from Taskmaster. Joel Dommett is in an empty room with a large camera placed near the ceiling. As he turns to leave, Alex Horne says from off-screen, "It's going to take 60 pictures." Joel replies, "I'm used to that, Alex. You know why?" Alex says, "No." Joel says with a sly grin, "I'm famous." End ID.]

[ID: A screencap from Taskmaster. Two coconuts hang from red strings threaded through them. One coconut is otherwise untouched. The other coconut has a claw hammer taped to it. Text at the bottom of the screen reads, "ALEX'S COCONUT vs MR DICKHEAD". End ID.]

[ID: Ten screencaps from Taskmaster. Kumail Nanjiani announces to the camera, "Well, I'm about to do something that's the bravest thing I've ever done." He sits down at a table beside Alex Horne and a laptop, and continues, "This is for real. This is my computer, and I am going to let Alex look at my internet history. He can look at whatever he wants, he can go wherever he wants. I'm genuinely shaking." He holds out his hand as proof. Alex asks, "And you haven't deleted your history?" Kumail replies, "I swear I have not deleted anything." Frowning at the screen, Alex says, "Why not?" End ID.]

[ID: Eleven screencaps from Taskmaster. Armando Iannucci says, "And I've always hated it... Always hated it when, like, at weddings, when somebody goes, 'Come on and do a dance! Come on!' And I go, 'No, I hate da...' 'No, come on!' And I resolved when I hit 60, which I did last year, that if that happens again, I will just tell them not to touch me, and I will phone the police. Any wedding I'm at and I'm asked to dance, I'm just going to say, to the bride's mother, 'Fuck off.'" End ID.]

[ID: Eight screencaps from Taskmaster. Amy Gledhill stands outdoors while Alex Horne enthusiastically tosses a bucketful of water in her face. Later, in the studio, Greg Davies asks, "Are you scared of water?" Amy replies, "I'm scared of cold water... because I feel like, what if it makes your heart stop?" Greg says, "Aw. And you took a bucket in the face?" Holding up his hands, Alex says, "Yeah, she did tell me to do that, but I'm slightly ashamed that I was smiling while doing it. I'm so sorry." End ID.]

[ID: Six screencaps from Taskmaster. Joanna Page says earnestly, "The thing is, being brave isn't about always succeeding. Being brave is about having a go, and there's nothing wrong with failing."

[ID: Two screencaps from Taskmaster. Sitting with his eyes closed, Joel Dommett says, "I'm gonna be a real brave boy." He inexplicably pouts his lips. End ID.]

[ID: Nine screencaps from Taskmaster. Joanna Page sits on top of a step-ladder in a garden. Standing on the ground, Alex Horne holds up a glass with a worm in it, asking, "You don't want to do it?" Joanna says, "Sorry, I don't like it." Alex asks, "We'll put it away? I'll put it back?" Joanna begins screaming, "Oh God! Let me see what it looks like! I can't do it! I can't do it! I don't like it! I can't do it!" She scrunches her face up, laughing. From over the garden hedge, someone asks, "You alright in there?" Alex replies, "We're OK, thank you. Yeah, we're all right." They both laugh and Joanna covers her face with her hand. End ID.]

[ID: Four screencaps from Taskmaster. Kumail Nanjiani sits at a table in a living room, as Alex Horne asks from off-screen, "Do you want us to go or are you going to go?"
