Hugh Dennis holds a washing basin over it and pulls the plug on it – the basketball stays there for four months. The task where the contestants have to slide for the longest. Mel Giedroyc is dragged about in a sleeping bag by crew members like a confused but delighted worm, and I could watch it for the rest of my life and be happy.
From shenanigans with chickpeas to singing songs to strangers, here are some of the funniest Taskmaster challenges from the last nine series. You are the Taskmaster, Little Alex Horne is your assistant and there are ten fiendish tasks to set remotely to your friends and family. All the proceeds will go to homeless charities across the UK via Homeless Link. Blindfold each team member and ask them to blow up a balloon.
It’s a potato
What else could have made self-isolating and social distancing more bearable than the Taskmaster, little Alex Horne delivering weekly tasks and hilarity in #HomeTasking? Contestants have to find the satsuma in one of 30 socks hanging from a washing line – by sniffing, hitting, listening, etc. Wang thinks he has found it, but when he checks, it turns out it’s a lime. He takes it well – by screaming “It’s a lime! But as it turns out, I don’t hate it, I love it.
You have 5 minutes to think of your silly walk. Think about nominating a different Taskmaster for each task – why not use Young Leaders if you have them? Everyone should keep playing with new tasks until the meeting ends. Depending on the challenge, everyone could take it in turns to share their results or entries when the time is up.
Watercooler moments
To do this task at home, all you'll need is a pen and paper for each player, access to the theme tune and lyrical talent. While in the episode, contestants were given a piano and the option to provide their own accompaniment, this isn't a requirement you need to stick to at home . The book has a foreword by Greg Davies, and then Alex Horne. There are suggestions on how to use the book. Some of the tasks have fun facts beneath them relating to the show.
Now the kids are teens we do them on birthdays instead of pass the parcel etc. Birthday Child gets to be the task master and judge the rest of us. Grape in hand or mouth challenge- you have a grape in either your mouth of your hand and they have to guess which . Or they have the grape and you guess, depending on age since grapes can be a choking hazard for younger ones.

One of the pies is a hot toothpaste pie, a pie filled with hot toothpaste. It is one of the most upsetting things I have ever seen. The task where the contestants have to sneak up on Horne in a snowy trainyard, in a game where contestants have to plot their route with intense, almost military strategy.
Use thesafety checklistto help you plan and risk assess your activity. Additional help to carry out yourrisk assessment, including examples can be found here. Don’t forget to make sure all young people and adults involved in the activity know how to take part safely. Contestants are placed into groups of two or three and asked to complete the task together.
Home Taskmaster
The main thing is that you eventually touched and had a good look at three trees. You should do that sort of thing more often. Say as many five-letter words as possible. Obviously, this can be done with whatever food you have lying around but if it doesn’t have you screaming out in pure anger at the sight of a twiglet, we don’t know what will. You know the concept of being told not to think about something, and then not being able to get that one thing out of your mind?
Make sure everyone knows they need to keep themselves and each other safe. The person leading the activity should welcome everyone to the game and introduce the taskmaster. Think on your feet and try to impress the master of tasks with these fun challenges. Contestant is asked to complete the task individually. Usually there is either a time limit, or the winner is determined based on whoever completes the task first. In the actual show, the contestant who has earned the most points from the episode usually gets to keep all the prize task submissions.
Whoever completes the task in the fastest time wins. The task where contestants have to record some exciting footage with a camera strapped to their heads. Phillips hauntingly recreates Horne’s birth with Horne and clingfilm. The task where contestants have to film something that looks good in reverse – so Ranganathan invents Tree Wizard, a beautiful short film of a man who creates balloons out of thin air and jumps into trees . His face is filled with childlike wonder, five stars.
The task where the contestants recreate a classic video game. Knappett goes Mario Kart in a set of golf buggies and a fake moustache, and Acaster does the best impression of the “jump” button from Grand Theft Auto to ever be broadcast on British television. The task where the contestants have to move a boulder as far as possible in an hour. Roisin Conaty wastes 28 minutes of her hour trying to arrange for a courier to Camber Sands, because it’s a nice place for a day trip.
It was recently announced that the cult hit was moving house to Channel 4. As a result, we were already fairly certain that we were in for a long wait before new series 10 episodes landed on our screens. And now, with much of the TV and film industry halting production and pushing back release dates, it's probably only going to get longer. The difficulty with this is won't they have to be doing them all at the same time? You could definitely do a prize task to bring, but really the games would have be similar to the 'final task' of the shows. The task where the contestants have to make the tallest beermat tower and also ring the doorbell outside once every few seconds.

Hand-free basketball
Acaster can’t hula-hoop , but crucially Wang’s ultratight bodysuit means you probably don’t want to see him try. The task where the contestants have to put three huge exercise balls on a mat on the top of a hill. Everyone struggles, except Osman, who simply moves the mat to the bottom of the hill. The task where the contestants have to bag the heaviest thing in a Christmas tree bagging machine, carried from the furthest distance. Katherine Parkinson is wheeled in a wheelbarrow and throws herself into the machine, writhing around in the net like a trapped dolphin.
