Speaker A
Maybe. Okay. Do the most preposterous thing with this chickpea. [laughter] You have 20 minutes. 20 minutes.
Speaker A
Yes, please. Your time starts now. [sighs] Okay. What do you think preposterous means, Katie?
Speaker A
Absurd. Outlandish. My process normally is to do the first thing that comes into my head. And obviously the first thing I think is to shove this up my ass.
Speaker A
Well, let's bank that. So, something small, it'd be like trying to do something large with it.
Speaker A
Okay, let's see. Let's think of something else I can do. Here I am trying to think of the second thing I could do. Balance it on my cog.
Speaker A
Uh, it's Ed first to portray preposterousness with a P. [laughter] [laughter] Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat.
Speaker A
[cheering] [applause] [music] [laughter] [applause] [applause] Jesus Christ. Tell me if I'm right here. I was just writing down the narrative as I went along. Yeah.
Speaker A
Wind. You wind and died a chickpea. Yes. You fell in love with it. Yes.
Speaker A
Tragically, you lost that chickpea in an awful car accident. And then, this is where it gets interesting.
Speaker A
You had sex with it. Smashed up remain. So, the chickpea didn't die. The chickpea was injured and then I helped rehabilitate it [laughter] and then it happened to numerous other chickpeas and then we all got off with each other.
Speaker A
Well, I've got to be honest with you, Ed. At the moment, you just look like the Jeffrey Dahmer of the chickpea world. [laughter] Well, the way I describe that whole thing is preposterous and absurd.
Speaker A
I mean, come on. That was an amazing film. Let's face it. That's a great... Well done. [applause] Hello. Welcome back to Taskmaster. It's the final part of the show, but the beginning of the rest of our lives together.
Speaker A
I genuinely want to kiss you right now. Now, do you come on then? [applause] [cheering] Before the break?
Speaker A
[music] How's it hanging? I'm fine, thank you. Give Alex a special cuddle. Oh no, I knew it.
Speaker A
Most special cuddle wins. Oh, Alex, you have 20 minutes. My time starts now. Mhm.
Speaker A
I mean, my instinct is to remove all my clothes, but I think that's just more my general instinct to do that at any given scenario.
Speaker A
You got a change of clothes? What do you want me to wear? I mean, I have fallen slightly in love with you over the weeks.
Speaker A
I'm thinking, Jesus, this is awful. You just do whatever I say. Yeah. Mhm. That's good. [laughter] I'll be right back. [applause] Cuddle Alex.
Speaker A
Okay. Can I have a little one? No. I will only cuddle you when you're ill. Very ill.
Speaker A
I look forward to that. So, next up, it's Sally's cuddle. Here we go. Let's lie down.
Speaker A
Lie down. Yeah. So [laughter] let's... Mhm. That's nice. Yeah. Is that good?
Speaker A
It's not special enough. We're going to go for every possible sense of special. First, give a bread eye mask.
Speaker A
[laughter] Just think of a happy memory. I sprinkle you with lettuce. [laughter] Relaxing salad.
Speaker A
So, we got an interate chocolate cake. Oh lovely. He's going to go in one armpit.
Speaker A
[laughter] [laughter] [laughter] [laughter] That's special. [laughter] Just enough for my job. Never really forgot.
Speaker A
[clears throat] Oh, that's nice. [music] [laughter] We got [laughter] [laughter] a pleasure. [applause] I suppose we, um, we need to get into the definition [laughter] of the word special. But special for who? That was very, very special for me.
Speaker A
Was it? [laughter] Yeah. I had a lovely time. Put chocolate cake under each armpit and make... No, I saw that. Yeah. [laughter] Each sock and then you said, "I'm going to start with a bread eye mask as if it was a thing." You essentially waterboarded him at the end. [laughter] In my eyes, that's how I roll.
Speaker A
What's important about your document? Um, it's my wedding certificate. Wow. Yeah. Um, the thing about this is that when I said to my Mrs. I was going on the show, I needed an important document. I said, "Can I take my wedding certificate?" And she said, "No." And I brought it anyway. [applause] And I'm terrified of her.
Speaker A
I'm genuinely... That's not a joke. I'm absolutely terrified of her. So, how are you?
Speaker A
Good, thanks. Make this Swedish person blush. [sighs] Make this Swedish person [laughter] already got the... Make this Swedish person blush as deeply. Make this Swedish person blush as deeply as possible.
Speaker A
Are you Swedish? Yeah, I love Swedes. You have 10 minutes. Your time starts now.
Speaker A
God, that's impossible. Hello. [clears throat] Will you do whatever I ask you to do?
Speaker A
Probably not. Probably will not. No. What kind of thing will make you blush yourself?
Speaker A
Don't know. What about somebody speaks to you really close up? I don't find that a bit strange.
Speaker A
Your ears are completely devoid of hair. Physical contact. Oh, that's fine. Yeah. Feel worse.
Speaker A
Fred, I'm worried that I'm getting a bit hot. What do you... What do you think?
Speaker A
Fine. Is there a reason you're not making eye contact with them? Not really. No, I couldn't make eye contact. Oh, now we're getting on, aren't we? We're really getting on.
Speaker A
I have a surprisingly bulbous vein on my private parts. But it almost exactly resembles the point where the A40 joins the A315.
Speaker A
I once got it out in a park to explain to all A directions and, um, it led to court.
Speaker A
How does that make you feel? Yep. [snorts] I mean, I've got no idea. [laughter] I mean, I'm either going to make him blush or I'm going to sleep with him. Which is it going to be? You know what I'm talking about, don't you?
Speaker A
[sighs] Fred? I think you might have beaten me in about 30 seconds to embarrass you.
Speaker A
You nizzle. Come on. Ready. [snorts] [laughter] [sighs] I'm sorry. I can only apologize, but that was just for the task. Yeah.
Speaker A
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But if you want to go for a drink, whatever, let me know.
Speaker A
[applause] I mean, so yeah, I'm not proud of that. I mean, you look proud, but I thought we got on like... like I really thought we did. But what was disappointing was how little he blushed.
Speaker A
And so the thing is that I realized that I was just touching him a lot and he wasn't blushing at all. And I just thought, I'm just groping a dude now. This is not... I'm not achieving anything in the task. It was horrible. See, I thought that he was blushing, but only from the neck down. [laughter] Was anyone else surprised? Frank Skinner has got the belly of a 15-year-old boy.
Speaker A
[laughter] Tell the taskmaster you love him in the most meaningful way. You've got half an hour and your time starts now.
Speaker A
[snorts] H in the most meaningful way. It's not telling, is it? Love? It's showing.
Speaker A
Actions speak louder than words, as we know. Could [snorts] I do something and sort of transpose one thought into an action and ask you to take his place for it and then tell him how it felt and then you can decide whether it's meaningful love or it isn't. Absolutely. Great. Stop the clock. I've got a good idea. What I need is a cake around this size. I need confectioners' custard. And then I'm going to ask you to take yourself somewhere private and put your bare ass into it. [laughter] Now, are we clear what you're up to here? Okay, I'm ready.
Speaker A
I hope you enjoy this. It might be the only time in your life you put your bare ass in a cake, but I'll let you get on with it.
Speaker A
All right. You all right? I'm all right. Trousers are down. Good. Right. Here we go. You ready?
Speaker A
Yes. [music] [applause] Enjoy it for a bit longer. I think I've had enough. [cheering] What did that feel like?
Speaker A
It felt like nothing I'd ever felt before. [laughter] It was so in me. Thank you.
Speaker A
[laughter] [applause] I [cheering] FELT SO DIRTY. [laughter] HE WAS A DIFFERENT MAN. You were different, weren't you?
Speaker A
Oh, for the rest of the week. Yeah, he really, really was. Well, your plan was to show your love for me vicariously through my assistant. And well, if that was love, turns out I've not been in love before.
Speaker A
I recommend it. I recommend it, too. Yeah, I reckon doing it once. It's got to be the right sort of chather because of the angle of the squatting. I was open.
