Shut up!
Oh, be care... Oh.
ALEX GROWLS
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Hello!
Welcome, everybody.
I'm Greg Davies, and this is Taskmaster.
Lazy journalists often ask me,
"Hey, Greg, what would you be like as a competitor on Taskmaster?"
And my answer is always the same.
"Does your mum like being kissed with that dirty mouth?
"Huh?! Does she?!"
I'm the Taskmaster!
Before every series, I spend six months training
with Shaolin monks in the hills of China.
What should I use my jacked body to throw toilet paper
around Gatwick airport?
Should I use these skills to throw cottage pie through a big pipe?
Ahh!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
I doubt it!
Fortunately for you, there are five people here
who will take on such challenges.
They are Dara O Briain... CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
..Fern Brady... CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
..John Kearns... CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
..Munya Chawawa... CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
..and Sarah Millican. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
And next to me, the man who has the answer to the question,
"What do you get if you cross a really boring chemistry teacher
"with another really boring chemistry teacher?"
HIGH-PITCHED: It's... little Alex Horne!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Thanks, everyone. Hi, Greg.
Hello.
Ooh! I love spending time with you.
Banter time. Let's do it. Let's do one.
L-Let's just play a game of, erm, of minds, noughts, and crosses.
Do you want to do that? Could you? Would you?
Sure. OK. I'm noughts.
OK.
LAUGHTER
Is it my go? Uh-huh.
I wouldn't have done that.
LAUGHTER
It's your board.
OK.
Oh, no. Yeah.
WHISPERS: Alex? Yes, Greg?
I've got an erection.
LAUGHTER Oh.
Right! On with the prize task.
Well, this week, you've asked them to bring in
the best fancy dress.
Greg will judge the best fancy dress, and then, the winner of
the episode will take home five very fancy dresses.
Simple as that. Right. Fern.
I am dressed as an alien dressed as a Scottish man.
Yes, this is Fern's fancy dress. Have a look.
LAUGHTER
Oh-ho, my God!
You know when you get these, like, educational films for children?
This was a film where -
there's a Scottish book called The Cone Gatherers
about two brothers.
And for some reason, I was an alien that inhabited
the character of the book.
But I'm not what people would call a thespian,
and I got shot dead in the end.
Right. Wh-Why was the alien shot?
I was shot cos I wasn't meant to be gathering cones in the forest.
I feel like possibly my drinks have been spiked.
Incredible. Good luck, Dara. LAUGHTER
I brought in a, er, plague doctor's mask.
This is Dara wearing his plague doctor's costume.
Ooh, I find that immediately unsettling.
We have got a close-up of the mask.
That's the actual mask, the plague doctor's mask.
But the plague doctors mask has no air holes in it,
so really quickly, the windows steam up, er,
and you have to keep reaching your hand into it and windscreen wiping
the little glass windows.
So that was bad.
I then started lifting it up onto my head, so people go,
"What, are you a unicorn?"
That's genuinely creepy.
It's quite a thing. John.
Do you like fancy dress?
I don't enjoy it at all.
Neither do I.
So, what I do is I bring in my pocket...
..an inflatable walking stick.
LAUGHTER
You can be Charlie Chaplin...
..Willy Wonka...
..the bloke from Up.
I don't like giving you one point in this round, do you know that?
Well, I don't think it deserves one point, even though
it clearly says "one" up there.
LAUGHTER
Munya. Yes? I feel good about this. OK.
So, I have brought in the most accurate replica of
a space suit ever made.
Accurate.
LAUGHTER
And just to try and tip you over to five points,
I've actually got a video of me in the suit.
LAUGHTER CONTINUES
It's not bad, Munya. It's not bad. Sarah?
So, from the age of 16 to 21, I worked at WH Smiths.
And every Christmas Eve, we were allowed to get dressed up.
And then, one of the years, nobody else wanted to -
apart from me and my friend.
So, we decided to do bad taste... Oof.
LAUGHTER
..and borrowed some clothes from my friend's mum.
Sorry.
And we wore them.
And nobody noticed.
LAUGHTER
We just looked like we were from South Shields,
which is where we were.
I don't think it's that bad. I'd wear that.
All right, then, scoring time.
The trouble is, I like the spirit of John's -
but it's obviously the worst fancy dress, isn't it? Oh, my miles.
Yeah, by a country mile. Give him one point.
I don't think Sarah's dress is that fancy.
I'm going to give her two points.
Because Dara's and Munya's are shop-bought fancy dress,
I'm going to give them three points. Three points each?
Yes, because we all know there's got to be a gulf between anything
and that...bloody alien boy. LAUGHTER
All right. Five points. Five points.
Yes, finally! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
OK, what does the first task involve?
It involves dash, dot, dash, dot,
dash, dash, dash, dash, dot, dot, dot. Dot.
Hello, John. Yeah.
Fern. Hiya.
Dara. Ooh!
Excuse me. Yes, do the table.
Nothing your side? No.
Nothing this side.
Is everyone well? Yeah, you know. Straight in.
"Come up with a secret language that doesn't use words.
"You have ten minutes, after which one of you must go to the lab.
"Your time starts now."
MUNYA: What if we had, like, broader categories,
so this could be, like, punch?
Why is that your first word?
So, punch... No! No.
I'm not going with this.
So, that can be "yes".
Oh, that could be "no," yeah.
You, me, us, hard, yeah...
SHE LAUGHS
..hard, medium, gently.
One of my key words in my life is not "gently"!
You know, the most common word in the world is, er...
Right, what're we going to do?
It's very difficult when you don't know what you'll be talking about.
Yeah, it is actually, yeah. Use common words.
It's like "ergh" or something.
Oh, Jesus.
Do, or noun?
What, you and me, nouns now?
A to E is yellow.
I'll give you an instruction. So... SHE LAUGHS
So... BELL DINGS
I.
Verb.
Oh, no, you named it. I, verb, medium.
What you, then do is you get these sticks, and you use that
for the subject matter.
There's literally no fault in this method.
SHE LAUGHS
DARA: A, B, C, D, E, F... Yes, yes, yes, yes!
And then, for the letter you use.
..T, U, V. So... You use the number.
You add a stick.
I don't know if you're a genius or a madman.
If we get this right, then it means the code works, OK?
If we get this right, it'll be a bloody miracle.
WHISTLE BLOWS
Munya, please go to the lab. Oh-ho-ho, good luck!
APPLAUSE
The team of two. Mm. Yeah?
The first word was suggested by Munya was the word "punch".
Yeah, out of all the words... That was his first word.
That's his first word - and he followed it up with "lick".
Yeah, but most situations can be solved by a punch or a lick.
Tell me any situation. Now?
Actually, you're right.
There you go.
What's this, John,
"The most commonly used word in the world is 'ergh'..."?
I, er, I heard it on the radio. LAUGHTER
And... And everyone anywhere in the world understands "ergh".
MUNYA: What? I-I don't understand it now.
Let's see it in action, come on.
Yeah, let's see the "I-verb-medium" team. It's Sarah and Munya.
"Secretly give this instruction to your team mate.
"You may not say or write any other words in the instruction.
"Fastest wins.
"Your time starts as soon as you walk through the door,
"and stops when the instruction's carried out by your team mate."
Should be easy.
Time has started.
You. Mm-hm.
Verb.
Mouse? Er, speak?
Shout? Eat?
You...you feed!
Mm!
Noun.
God, I hope there's a "hard" or a "gently" coming up soon.
You feed...the cat?
You feed...a giraffe?
Ohh! You feed the giraffe.
You feed the giraffe - oh, and...this is horrifically working.
Is there punch coming up? Because I know that one.
You feed the giraffe and...
..elephant. HE CLAPS
Is that it?
Three.
You feed the giraffe and elephant
down along three times...
..in the clown's mouth?
Jesus Christ!
We done it!
Yeah? OK.
Three.
I've stopped the clock. Oh, my God! Well done!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
I was a bit disappointed that no-one got fed hard or punched.
but what looks like absolute chaos worked a treat.
I'm still surprised that it worked, and I was there.
Right. Find someone to spoon for five minutes,
because we're going to have an advert break. Alex!
LAUGHTER
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Hello! Welcome back to Taskmaster -
where there's a code-creating task on the go.
No, I don't think so, Greg.
I'm just kidding, there is!
The team of two's unorthodox codes seem to work.
In the end, they fed three giraffes and an elephant to the clown.
Let's see how Dara, Fern, and John got on.
B-B-A.
F.
Yes!
BELL RINGS
Right I think that's B.
C!
THEY LAUGH
What? Why are you holding two sticks?
Is it A? Is it B?
Is it C? Is it D?
Is it E?
It is! Oh, I think the next letter is D.
B, B!
I don't understand.
I don't know what is it!
T. OK we're back, we're back, we're back, we're back,
we're back, we're back. H!
Is it R? Yeah.
Is the next one E?
Yeah, E.
Feed...three...
Ducks?
Sheep?
E that means E. Yeah.
There's been, so far, five Es. X!
Well, that can only be L, M, or N.
Elephant.
Ooh, maybe. That's a P.
Is it elephant? No, he can't say that, we have to...
N, so the language works.
The language does work. Save three elephants, and...
Oh, giraffe. Oh, here we go.
Next word, please.
A.
C. How is it C? I-I...
How was it C? Cos it is.
Oh! L. It's clown!
"Feed three elephants, and a giraffe to the clown?"
DARA: Christ Almighty.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
My impression formed of you non-dingers -
Fern was of more used to you on this occasion.
Fern was a joy to work with, a pleasure to be around.
we were on the same wavelength, we worked really, really well.
Yeah, that's all I want to say about that task. Er...
LAUGHTER
And if you wanted to go to a fancy dress with one of them,
you'd go with her right? I would, I would. I mean, and...
You wouldn't take some prick with a blow-up walking stick.
LAUGHTER
John, anything you want to say in your defence?
My brain doesn't work like that.
It doesn't work.
LAUGHTER
APPLAUSE
Oh, never mind.
Maybe there's some points to be had.
Well, as you saw, Fern and John fed three elephants and a giraffe
to the clown, but Sarah fed one elephant and three giraffes
to the clown. So, only one of them's got it right.
Whichever team turn out to have fed the correct animals into the clown
will get five points, and if they fed the wrong animals to the clown,
there will be no points. No points.
AUDIENCE GASPS
What?! Cos the task wouldn't have been completed.
Feels harsh. But I don't know who did it.
You could still be a nicer person.
LAUGHTER
APPLAUSE
So, the team of three thinks it's three elephants.
If they're right, they win.
"Feed three elephants and a giraffe to the clown."
DARA: "Feed three giraffes and an elephant to the clown."
Which means the team of two win five points each! Oh, wow!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
That's crushing. DARA: That is tough.
That is, er, entirely my fault
and I apologise about everything I said about John. Er...
LAUGHTER
Let's have the scoreboard.
Yes. Munya, of course, yet to win an episode, as has Fern -
but they're both in with a shot in this one.
Fern is on 5, Munya's in the lead with 8 points! Yes!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Come on!
Right, what is next, please?
Well, there's something pretty alluring.
Mm!
Hi. Hi, Sarah. Hello.
Hello, Fern. Can I walk in like that?
Wow, that was really nice.
Right.
"Pin an alluring tail on the alluring animal while blindfolded."
"Pin the tail on the donkey."
"You have 15 minutes to find the alluring animal."
Ooh, "Make an alluring tail."
"Put your alluring tail on the tail station,
"and prepare to pin your alluring tail on the alluring animal."
Blindfolded!
"Starting from here. Fastest wins."
ALEX: You have to now try to find the alluring animal.
What animals do you find alluring?
The Cadbury's, er, bunny.
It's out the front!
Aha!
SARAH: Is it him?
So, that's the alluring animal?
ALEX: Is it alluring?
No, I'm not a pervert.
So, now we need an alluring tail.
So, the tail station is that circle in the middle of the lawn.
What's in here that might be sexy?
I mean, that's quite an alluring tail in itself.
What about flowers up its butt?
That's lovely.
I'll use this. What is it, a toilet brush?
It looks kind of used.
No, don't sniff it.
APPLAUSE
The Cadbury's bunny, yeah? LAUGHTER
Well, she's fictional, so that's all right.
So, it's pin the tail on the donkey,
but we gave them 15 minutes to prepare their tail.
But that's really a distraction from preparing their route
from tail to tiger.
Good. Let's begin with good ol' Dara and good, young Munya.
Alex. Yes?
Do you know what I'm going to do?
No. I'm going to make a long path.
Right, OK.
I need to keep to the right-hand side of this.
Take this as far as you can.
OK, stop. All right.
Drop. Drop? Right, I'm ready.
Right. I have to go back and sit down, don't I? Yes, please.
When I blow the whistle, you must pin your alluring tail
on the alluring animal. BLOWS WHISTLE
Just need to find the door.
OK. Corridor...
..and then, out here. Now it's the steps.
OK. Whoa.
I can hear my voice pinging off some sort of dome.
Turn 90 degrees.
One, two, three...there.
Ohh, not quite.
That's how this has to happen.
Aha! Right.
It's about keeping a low centre of gravity, Alex.
I can see that.
Like a coiled hedgehog.
Piano, piano, piano.
Yes! Ready? Push!
Yeah! Stop the clock.
The head of alluring animal, bum of alluring animal. Saucy.
I've stopped the clock. Thank you, Dara.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
I'm not sure how alluring Munya's tiger was
after it had been violently tailed.
Let's have a look at his alluring tiger after it had been tailed.
No, but the thing is, in my defence,
if that is a toilet brush...
Toilet brushes go near bottoms, which are alluring.
You know you don't clean your bum with a toilet brush, don't you?
And you certainly don't clean your bum with
a toilet brush that deeply.
You were on your feet most of the time, Dara,
and I hope you don't take what I've written down as an insult here.
I'm clearly about to have to take that as an insult, but go on.
I've put, "Dara has a very upright, dainty walk for a big man."
Full stop. "Like one of those Spanish horses that can dance."
LAUGHTER
You got some times? I do. Dara, three minutes exactly.
Munya, two minutes and six seconds.
In the lead at the moment, so well done, Munya.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
OK, Fern and Sarah now.
So, can I just go in here and be blindfolded?
Yeah, when you come out, though, you'll be coming out the front.
Did you want to - are you having a practice? What are you doing?
Huh? Do you just want to start?
Yes! OK, I'm coming.
What are you waiting for?
What are we waiting for? Yeah.
Your time starts...now.
Do be careful.
I don't have very good spatial awareness when I'm not blindfolded.
Right.
Ah, there we go there's the door.
Oh! No, that's not the door.
So, this was where the 18 started. So, one, two...
Ohh-ho-ho, no!
What's your system now, Fern?
I just have to keep waving my arms.
Right.
Oh, there's the globe.
Is the house there? I don't think so.
If the hedge is there...
Is the hedge there? No.
So, there's a wagon wheel, and then, it's four steps.
I'm going to shuffle till I hit it with my feet.
SHE GROANS
Feels minging.
Oh! OK, OK, OK.
Oh! I found my tail.
I should've counted how many steps. Why didn't I do this bit?
Am I going to walk into anything?
Where do you think you are? Near the piano.
Right. Am I not? No.
Where is it? Where is it?
Ooh.
Argh, God!
Oh, that's the cow!
Ooh, hello. Are you here?
Where is it? Where is it?
Ah, there he is!
I'll feel the heat of its body.
Argh! Done.
I've stopped the clock.
There we go. Done.
I've stopped the clock, Fern.
You...oh.
APPLAUSE
Two very contrasting styles.
Sarah used a step-counting system to complete the task
with reasonable efficiency.
Fern stumbled around waving her hands in front of her
whilst shouting, "Where am I?" LAUGHTER
You're following this narrative that I don't have systems,
and I just flounder around.
What was the system, then?
Well...there might not have been a system.
LAUGHTER
I was going to use the one that bats do, where you, like,
make a clicking sound.
And I would've been far kinder in my summary if you had.
OK, well, Sarah's method sort of worked.
She just felt her way there in nine minutes and 40 seconds.
OK. Yeah, not good.
Not great, but comparatively not bad.
Fern, you took 13 minutes
and 53 seconds to cover 25 metres.
If you did the marathon at that rate,
it would take 16 days and eight hours.
Three, two, one, advertising!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Hello! Here we are again, for the third part of the show.
Ooh, nice work, Greg. Someone's been practising.
Before the break, the five competitors were trying to plan
how best to pin a tail on an alluring animal once blindfolded.
Fern Brady does not make plans.
Now finally, what will John Kearns do?
You think a blindfold's going to do me?
In we go.
Your time starts... WHISTLE BLOWS
Right, now I've planned for this.
I don't remember it being this far away.
Well, I left it here.
Have you moved it? No.
No. "No," he says.
It's there, John. It's not there.
Where am I there? I'm at the door!
Well, it's there. Well, OK.
It's right there. Well, pick it up, then.
Aha! Oh.
Where's the string?
Where's the tail?
The tail was on top of the tail station.
Yeah, it still is. The bits of...no, it's not.
It's not because I just picked up the tail station.
You soiled my planning!
I tell you, I thought I was doing this in under a minute or something.
Is that the piano? Yes.
HE CHUCKLES
Stop the clock. Well done, John.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
I don't quite know what went wrong, cos it looked really promising.
It...the...I don't know, I...
It just disappeared.
Then I accused the team of...
Yeah, you were very cross.
You thought we'd moved your tail. You were convinced, yeah.
I got a bit angry, I apologise. For a couple of hours.
I think that, once you did find the tail,
you walked away like a grandfather in a sitcom.
Could be wrong. Let's see if he did.
LAUGHTER
APPLAUSE
Tell me some times.
Yes, well, 1 point to Fern, with her 13 minutes, 53. Oh, no.
2 points to Sarah,
then it was John, with his eight minutes and 12 seconds.
Dara, of course, three minutes -
but the fastest by quite some distance was Munya.
He gets another 5 points! Wow.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Wow. Right, another one.
OK, yes, and I have an extremely handy one ready now.
So, let's see it.
GHOSTLY WHISPERING: That's my hand...that's my hand...
WHISPERING MULTIPLIES
That's my hand.
OK, this is sinister.
Munya. I brought a little, er, comfort animal along.
I've abducted him.
Place your hand on the table.
Ooh! Ergh.
"Find the back of your hand."
Oh, no!
SARAH: "Fewest wrong guesses wins."
"You have a maximum of 20 minutes."
MUNYA: "And your time starts when Alex does a hand pun."
I think I should be able to do it,
cos I have really big, weird hands
that look like a roofer's.
All hands on deck.
Just to reassure you, you are in safe hands.
Was that a pun? Yeah. OK.
You are going to have to do it single-handedly.
APPLAUSE
Just explain what they have to do.
Yes, so on the very first day they arrived in the house,
I took a polaroid of their hands.
Yeah. In that garage, there were 3,000 other hands.
Hands of our viewers, in fact.
Thank you for sending your hands in, if you did.
The first people we'll see have some very similar hands -
all four, lovely and soft, it's Dara and John.
I remember, erm, someone's dessert island discs
who's playing the piano.
He was looking down at his hands...
..and he realised he was looking at his fathers' hands.
You know, I'm looking for not just my hands, but my dad's hands.
I don't think your dad's hands are here.
Oh, Jesus Christ.
Is there any clue?
"For sale - reject boards. 100 guesses."
So, I can tell you which boards it's not,
but it will cost you 100 guesses for each board.
That's not a good deal. OK.
There's got to be something clever with this, there's got to be
some other way of doing this.
What's that? Oh, I wouldn't touch that, but...
What'd you say? I said, "I wouldn't touch that."
It's that hand, so there'd be no ring on it.
Place your hand there, please. Your left hand.
ECHOING: It's that hand, so there'd be no ring on it.
ECHOING CONTINUES
Whose hands are those?
Is that your first guess? Yeah.
Wrong. Fu...
Right, eliminate two boards.
Well, there's a dog there.
These are all wrong fingers, if you want to dip in there.
Yep. These two.
Left pinky, right pinky.
200 guesses.
That's half your time gone.
How many boards are there? Eight.
I want to get rid of seven.
Here's what we'll do, two more.
Gone! I'm not on there, I'm not on there,
I'm not on there, I'm not on there.
Not on there...not on there...
I'm there. You now have 701 guesses.
That one.
No.
Is it that one? No.
Right, you're saying "no" quickly.
It can't be somewhere where you're stood over there, and you can go,
"Yeah, it's that one."
Is it that one? No.
Is it that one? No.
Ah, you paused there. It's around here.
You have 30 seconds.
I'm going to go mad, staring at these.
AUDIENCE OOHS
That. No. That. No. That. No.
That. No. That. No.
It's around here. You started...
..pissing yourself around here. AUDIENCE OOHS
Is...that one?
Come on!
That. No.
That...that.
Is it that one?No. BLOWS WHISTLE
Too many hands.
ECHOING: They all look the same.
Where is my hand?
Thank you, Dara.
QUIET SOBBING
It's not fair... there's so many hands.
LAUGHTER
APPLAUSE
John, you know that whole "dad's hands" thing? Yep.
Yeah, what were you on about? LAUGHTER
Er, Russell Watson. Yeah.
So, he said he was playing the piano one day, and then, he looked down,
and he was like, "God, I've got my dad's' hands."
What you're saying is the opera singer Russell Watson...
LAUGHTER
..said in an interview you saw with him, he realises his hands
looks like his dad's,
and that affected your system here of looking for your hands
when you had your own fucking hands in front of you?
LAUGHTER Why bring your dad into this at all?
It's easier to look for your dad's hands than your own.
Dara, you hampered yourself by picking the wrong hand.
See, I made the mistake, I was looking for my auntie's hands.
LAUGHTER
Because Placido Domingo said to me once...
John, at one point, I'm fairly sure that you chose a Black hand.
LAUGHTER
Those were my dad's. LAUGHTER CONTINUES
APPLAUSE
Advert time!
If your partner is off making the tea and they've got PJs on,
why not sneak up behind them and pull their PJs down and shout,
"Look, kids, the moon is disgusting tonight!"
LAUGHTER
It's your break, do what you want.
We'll see you in a minute. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Hello, everyone!
Welcome back to the closing part of today's show.
There was a creepy task in play, I believe. You're right, Greg.
I got pictures of loads of hands, stuck them on a wall,
and then, locked the competitors in the garage with them.
I'm so weird.
Next to try and find their hands amongst over 3,000 other hands
are Munya and Fern.
High five.
Oh, yeah.
Hey, wait a minute!
Ooh.
So, we're looking for a fat, square palm...
Ooh, that hand's horrible!
That's like a demon's hands.
So, there's two mirrors - one has a little square in it, one's plain.
So, surely, I need to ping it off the second mirror, don't I?
Now if I get it at just the right angle,
it will point directly at my hand.
Yes, there you go.
That ain't my hand.
"For sale - reject boards."
Yeah, can you do that?
Left, middle, and right pinky.
Oh, you lot think you're smart.
Aha!
Because I'm stretching, is this boiler suit giving me a camel toe?
Yo, hey, don't pan down, man, what are you doing?!
Would you like to rule out any more boards, Fern?
Yes, left wedding.
Right, middle. Left index.
OK. SHE SIGHS
What in the hell?
So, now I've gone from having to look for my own hand
to a tiny pinprick of laser.
This one? That's not your hand. Yeah, too fat.
Aha, yes!
You know what? This is my hand.
I've stopped the clock.
This one! This hand.
That is your hand. That's my hand!
Come on!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Really dug out one hand in particular,
but it was a strange-looking hand, to be fair.
Yeah, so I insulted a lot of the hands,
but that's just speaking as a person who hates my own hands.
Yes, she was looking for a hand that was dehydrated.
She said, "What face does my hand make?"
and, "My hand doesn't bulge."
LAUGHTER
Did I say that? Uh-huh, and then, you asked,
"Who invented right and left, and what's it for?" I did!
LAUGHTER
Munya, I thought watching you in action was like watching
an episode of CSI, right up until the point you announced
you had a camel toe.
When I used to go to Laser Quest, in Norwich,
every time I used to go, it was full of, like, ex-Marines.
So, I'd always just be killed instantly.
So, what I had to do is I had to learn to get into little corners
and look for reflective surfaces,
and then, ping them off the top like that.
So I walked into there and I've gone,
"This is what the training was for."
Munya took one guess, got it right.
Wow!So, it'll be tough to beat. APPLAUSE
How many guesses did Fern take to find her big old hands?
So, she used 504 guesses.
Oh, right. Who's left? It's Sarah Millican.
I know how I had my hand photographed.
How was that?
Everybody else is going to do that, so I'm going to do that.
OK. AUDIENCE GASPS
That should help. It should help, shouldn't it?
Cos it should stand out more...
..than all the losers who've just put their hand normal.
No, OK.
It's weird how hands don't look like hands any more
when you look at them so much,
and now, some of them just look like loads of parsnips.
Ah! Found it.
It's correct. SHE GIGGLES
I don't know what say, it's just some sweet forward planning.
But obviously I didn't know what the task was going to be,
and I genuinely just thought it was funny to look like
I was wanking a cock.
I was just going for the joke.
Well, Sarah and Munya both just a single guess,
so they both get 5 points. Fern 4, the others 0.
Sarah and Munya are the winners! What a blow, well done!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Let's have a quick look at the scores.
Right, well, John rock-bottom with 4 points,
Munya rock-top with 18 points!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Please make your way to the stage for the final task of the show!
CHEERING
Who will be reading out the final task?
Dara O Briain. Hit it.
"Guess the fully-extended length of the extendible item.
"Closest to the fully-extended length wins."
Sounds pretty high-octane. Oh, yeah.
OK, so it's a team task.
We have little markers - if you make your guesses as a team,
but one of you can go out on the Knappett and put down
where they think it will go.
The other person has to stay on their spot.
And are we allowed to lie down to measure things?
Is that how you normally measure things?
LAUGHTER
We're going to start with the feather duster,
and Dara, you go first. OK.
I don't think you want me to do my catchphrase.
I want you to do your catchphrase. Let's smash it.
JOHN: I think Fern agrees with that, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
I agree with it, as well, yeah.
Happy with that team? Yeah.
Right, so I want you to see - how many ridges has it got? Seven.
That's a lot, isn't it? I think further. Further?
Than they've got, yeah. Yeah, cos the thing is you've got
to get those extra-high cobwebs, no-one's getting a short cobweb.
Team of three has gone shorter, team of two further.
Are you going to invite me to extend?
LAUGHTER
Please use your own hands to extend.
He's off. Oh-ho-ho, he's off!
DRAMATIC MUSIC
The team of two get the first points.
APPLAUSE
Now moving onto the dog lead -
and it's Sarah to measure first.
I think it's really long.
That's too far, because if you need to pull it back suddenly,
you shouldn't be having to do this.
No, I do that all the time, it's like pulling in the end of
a hoover and me dog flies back.
All right, go on, then, I trust you.
I've got it, I'm going to go quite far.
Are you s...? OK. Yeah. Just pull it back just a little bit.
WHISTLE BLOWS No, she can't.
FERN: So, I really don't want to fall off this.
No, I don't want you to fall off this.
Here? Yeah, you go with your gut.
Let's extend.
Let's extend, straight to it. OK, here we go.
Ooh, look at that lovely confident extending.
Yeah, it's way longer.
What a brave boy. No, no.
CROWD GASPS Ah, you jester.
MUNYA: Ah, so it can go over. Over, I didn't know.
FERN: T-Too far.
The team of three.They take it. APPLAUSE
We're moving on to tape measure.
A tape measure is meant to measure everything in the house.
So, that's going to go...so far.
LAUGHTER
What have you seen, John? Two times-ness.
What?
I'm tempted to not even move that.
Would it help if we got some Russell Watson played in?
No, nearer! WHISTLE BLOWS
It's a jumbo one, this.
All right, so it's the team of two.
MUNYA: How about this? How about this?
Yeah, make sure it's in front of the thing, yeah.
Blocking them.
Let's extend.
TENSE MUSIC PLAYS
AUDIENCE OOHS
Such a silly man.
That is it. Really?
Yes. Well, it does say "two times NES."
Two times NEs, so that's, of course, two times Noel Edmonds's.
THEY LAUGH
All the information was on the tape measure.
So, the team of two gets another point. Congratulations.
I'm pretty excited about the ladder.
Is it the ladder now? It's ladder time, guys. Yeah!
MUNYA: Do you think that is the size of a house? I don't know.
I don't know a thing about ladders. Go over the thingy.
Go over the Knappett.
Right on the brink! Do you think? On the brink. On the brink?
I don't think its going to go that tall. Four seconds.
Can I move it in? Yeah, there, there.
There, there, there. There! OK.
WHISTLE BLOWS Oh, wow.
What a rush! SARAH GIGGLES
Team of three, you do need to win this one.
FERN: Every section of that extends about that.
If we could lay Dara end-to-end...
That's a big if.
I think Dara's using his own system.
I just heard someone say, "Oh, no, up there."
Let's extend.
It's going to go way past both, is my prediction.
MUNYA: Ah, yes.
Oh, ooh, hello. Hello.
Oh, we're at the end. Oh, what?!
I think it's perfect.
APPLAUSE Team of three!
OK, so next one wins, Greg.
It's the red vacuum cleaner.
This time, it's being measured to where its face gets to.
Oh, so it's using the lead?
Exactly, we're measuring the extension lead. Ooh-wee!
Hello. I'm pissed with anticipation.
LAUGHTER
Team of two, you're going first.
MUNYA: I reckon this man is long enough to get to the edge.
Yeah. What do you think? I agree.
We have to commit. I-I feel like off the edge.
All right. Cool, there we go.
Bold. So bold.
Brave.
Well, cleaners use this, it's not for normal households.
LAUGHTER
He's found his marker. LAUGHTER CONTINUES
Just on the edge. CROWD EXCLAIMS
Oh, he's gone bold. Three seconds. Are you happy, John?
WHISTLE BLOWS
CROWD EXCLAIMS
MUNYA: Oh, yes! Come on!
Yes!
Two things - it was an act of madness.
And secondly, who'd have thought someone would make
this game genuinely exciting?
LAUGHTER
But when the whistle went...
AUDIENCE OOHS
..the team of three were on the floor. Ooh.
I did see where you placed it,
and I think I've been true to that. Let's extend.
DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS
It's a short one. That's it.
CROWD EXCLAIMS
MUNYA: Does that mean we win? The team of two win!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
What's he talking about? That's as far as it goes.
Let's add that up and see how it's affected the final scores!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
FERN: I've never heard of that before.
APPLAUSE
Oh!Well, all right, everyone's a bit cross about the trick vacuum.
Yeah.
LAUGHTER
In the end, the team of two get three points.
The team of three get two points.
So, well done, Sarah and Munya!
Wow. APPLAUSE
Shall I tell you some scores? Yes, please.
Well, in the series - oh, wow,
Fern and John have exactly the same number of points, 113,
Munya 118 now,
Sarah on 141,
Dara on 142!
AUDIENCE EXCLAIMS
APPLAUSE
In this episode, John has 6 points.
LAUGHTER
Dara 9, Fern 12, Sarah 17,
Munya Chawawa has 21 points!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
At last, Munya wins!
Please go and party with your fancy dress!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
There's just two shows left, but just one winner tonight.
It is Munya Chawawa!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
