[Music] [Applause] sh [Music] Pap this is the best day of my [Music] life yes hello welcome to task master Australia my name is Tom gleon and I am the aforementioned Taskmaster for all those seeking entertainment you've come to the right place for those sickos amongst you who specifically take joy from seeing comedians humiliating themselves while earnestly trying their best all while trying to win a Golden replica of my large head good news that's kind of our whole deal oh wow it's lovely isn't

it competing for Glory in our first season we have four of Australia's finest Comedians and one former children's TV host Reinventing himself as a bad boy every time every time they are Daniel Walker Jimmy Rees Julia Morris L McGregor and Nama being a Taskmaster is a full-time job one that I do for about 10 days a year it means I don't have time for things like admin I leave that to my humble assistant we have the same name so just to clear things up I'm main Tom and he's lesser Tom it's Tom Ca

shman I'm personally just happy I'm not least Tom it's time for some dreaded admins so take it away Lessa Tom so our first task is a prize task each of our contestants have been asked to bring in a prize the best one will receive Five Points second best four points and so on and then the winner of tonight's episode will take home all five prizes okay what have they brought in tonight tonight they've been asked to bring in the thing they'd most like to be buried with I love a bit of coff and aut

tramont so let's start with Julia Morris uh what what would you take with you I would like to take a really big lighter cuz I just want to be dust I I can't go in the whole ground with that stuff eating me and here is the lighter okay so you're in the coffin with the lighter and then you're buried who lights you that's a really good question do I have to be buried yeah that was kind of part of it wasn't it you could argue us the whole thing all right I I appreciate your sentiment but I'm pretty

sure if you go to a crematorium they don't just get a b and sing your edges there's a little curtain you wouldn't know what goes on behind there you think there's a person behind the curtain with a bit going all right here we go I think there's heaps of people with lots of bits a guard of Honor a guard of Honor with all they all got BS farewell showing their respect while they singe your edges don't make me cry Tom that's beautiful okay uh Nina I would like to be buried with some worms yeah and

why is that I thought it would be a funny prank on some like worms in the ground if I already pre- wormed myself and so then like the worms in the ground would try and move into my body and then there would be some worms already there being like no like get away from my house um and then they would have a Turf War Over My Dead Body all right okay so quite like that one um what about you Jimmy well you didn't really specify if you were alive or dead so I just take my phone call for help and be do

ne and be I thought you'd take your phone so you could do some viral Tik Tok videos in the afterlife there'd be time for that wouldn't there yeah did we mention whether you had to be dead or alive no we didn't it's simply the thing they'd most like to be buried with looking back I should have said Brad Pit I was all right Danielle what what would you like to be buried with I bought a a treasure map well cuz I thought it would be fun for somebody to dig me up and then be sent on a wall goose chas

e for some treasure I'm just a bit of a prank all right so this is a more detailed prank than Nina's which I quite like I feel like is the treasure near you or no no no it's wherever this map I found on the internet i' I've I've been there it's actually a Hungry Jack uh Luke what do you have for us mine's similar to Jimmy's mine's sort of practical but I was worried about um battery life and and not having reception so if I get buried and I'm happen to be still alive I I I brought a a shovel it'

s also good CU if I find Danielle's map I can dig for the treasure okay how do you picture that working out in practicality you're underground you're alive you got your shovel yeah I was thinking that cuz if I'm buried with a shovel in the coffin I actually need to get out of that first before I um and you can imagine what an idiot I'd feel once I'm inside the coffin with the shovel going all the things yeah didn't think it's true enough cuz if once I'm out of the coffin I'm I'm home free but bu

t actually getting is is a problem so yeah I uh I admit there are flaws I must say I think this is really hard to score because they're all equally a bit ass I think I'm going to have to put Julia last with a lighter cuz first of all wouldn't really cremate you and also it's it's just very small quite boring I think Jimmy with a phone as well what I think it's a good idea if you're buried alive to have a phone but I think Luke was exactly right there'd be no reception Nina I mean I did like the

prank but again worms is probably the first thing you think of when you think of being being buried so you're on three points Luke with a shovel and Danielle five points for the pirate treasure map thank you thank you these scores aren't for nothing we're telling them across the whole season Tom Cashman how do things stand in the race for my golden Noggin winning the season so far it's Danielle on 37 points all right I'm ready for the first task lesser Tom all right don't forget everyone when yo

u go out side it's important to flip flop [Music] flap hello tom tom o what do you got here okay that's not something you normally see on a table okay here we go sir oh fly this thong the furthest the furthest thong wins you have 20 minutes your time starts now okay thong flight what are you thinking uh I'm thinking that I got a a small uh food stain on my flight suit over lunch and I'm embarrassed to stand up all right where where is the stain it's here and here that's shameful to you I don't k

now if the camera can even see it but let's go play this song it's a pretty simple task uh what's the furthest you've flown a thong Tom casman probably in my luggage to Europe in 2011 I went backpacking with a few friends and my ex-girlfriend uh at the time and yeah yeah looking back it was probably one of the best times of my life is that it I don't care yeah all right shall we watch some thongs take flight one of them fears the beach the other is wearing a thong right now it's Luke and Jimmy w

hat about some sort of like catapult launching device like a So the plan is you stand there with a cricket bat okay and then I'll throw the thong okay and then with the bat you hit it even further so it's still technically in the air okay how accurate do you think you can be don't worry about me buddy you worry about your bat I am worried okay we'll worry okay I'll worry about okay yeah I'm worried as well I'm going to try this first and then I'll just ho it as far as I can okay that's okay oh h

ow far do you think that is um I'm going to say like 11 basketballers standing on each other's heads and lying down okay 11 11 what 11 Jimmy steps okay okay buddy I'm pretty confident we can do it in one here we [Music] go yeah no I'm just going to throw it aren't I that's going to be the furthest I this is going to work I'm going to move this I think I think this was the problem like I like the Catapult idea but maybe I just need a no okay okay oh no I fed at the same time I'm sorry I put mysel

f up cuz I I F at the same time I wonder how far I can Javelin that wasn't bad thanks buddy hey I'm tired too throwing it is really hard I know don't slip on me oh yeah that's pretty good 30 [Music] seconds oh [Music] no I mean that's a hit it's shorter than your other yeah that's a good point 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 [Music] [Applause] 1 yeah Luke did you ask Tom if he plays Cricket Tom do you play cricket no so even if you could throw it accurately which you couldn't Tom probably couldn't hit it

very far now now that you bring it up that would have been a a good question to ask up top yeah you kind of came to that conclusion too Jimmy do do you think that just throwing it would have been better rather than getting distracted I attached it to a stupid a which was way heavier than the thong and just tried to Javelin it I tried to become an Olympic javeler just like in 20 minutes you know when I wasted eight minutes trying to be an Olympic Javelin and just quickly what was the top hat for

Jimmy I just thought I'd look I I was going to say cool doing it I think I think it' enhanced my embarrassment Jimmy managed to fly his thong 28.9 M implementing his chucking while bouncing method Luke registered a flight of 4038 M much like a thong these two keep you on your toes it's Nina and Danielle what have we got here oh got the thong okay and um I want to glue some googly eyes on it yep if you have the time why not make things slightly aesthetic M what I would like to do is um put a heap

of matches on the back of him and then light them on fire and then he'll fly this is what say it's a pretty good effort to have like a little Gold Wing no I I think it's aesthetic he'll go out and go up to space actually I'm going to take him to space actually he's going to go all the way to Planet X and then plan X come back I'm going to tie this rope to this guy y j that that'll fully light on fire right what 30 matches all bunched together then I'm going to tie it to that tree then the gravi

ty will make the thong go down right so what notd is this well I kind of just figured if I tied it a bunch around the tree yeah I'm ready to go set him off okay what what's the plan here um I'll light um him on fire and then that will help shoot him off like a rocket okay I'm actually like shaking at the thought of doing this but oh there we go all right are we ready to take flight oh come [Music] on come on come on yeah go go oh wait it's going down sort of is it all righty there we go okay and

then he's [Music] [Applause] [Music] off th's up you've really burnt that yeah don't breath that in that's sexually toxic Danielle I feel like if you were part of the NASA program and you had to put man on the moon you'd be like let's do craft that's sort of what science is I think oh craft you just get to light on fire and be like oh what's going to happen probably more fire are we going to accept CGI how do we feel about that I feel pretty good about it if we're going to make the leaf of CGI

and pretend that your thong went to Planet X first of all we have to know if Planet X exists it does exist Tom it does exist right not necessarily what do you mean this is the it's still a thing Daniel I hate to tell you the scientific Community thinks the Planet X is simply a hypothetical concept oh so you pretended to make your thong go to a hypothetical concept how far away is a hypothetical concept when you're pretending zero M oh okay that's rough Nina do you think your string was like down

hill or horizontal cuz it's a fine line between a flying fox and just hanging something on a cloth line I also think there wasn't enough weight on the thong like if the thong was weight like maybe I should have jumped off with the thong and I would have won and also died Nina's flew 9.12 M okay let's wrap up this task with one more shall we we saved the best till last or the worst actually quite often we do leave the worst till last let's find out which this one is it's Julia Morris fly okay do

you know what I'm saying no in the fly so now I can just go far as I want okay and now it's flying okay very we go see you later I'm going to take you cross country bab watch out for your ride and it is technically flying I'm not touching it I think I'm going to go cross country again Tom okay all right I'm still going didn't touch it I tell you what wish I was SP I want to go further but I feel it's going to fall out of my fly I'm still going I think the running ruined it woo I think the's goin

g to flop this is the [Music] Earth was this genius or just loose word association oh very very loose yeah now if you're looking for genius you can go to any of these other people oh I'm not on that location cuz honestly I've said it before and I'll say it again every single task that I did I was just trying to make go quickly so we get Mark I really like that interpretation I think that works I think I think it I can't be faltered can it it was in the fly would you like to know how far the thon

g traveled 269 M wow that means Danielle is on one point Nina has two Jimmy three Luke on four and the winner of the task is Julia with Five Points well I think this is a great point to ask can we get an update on our scores thus far the winner thus far in the episode is Luke with eight points Luke the Dark Horse and by Dark Horse I mean Fair horse Tom Catman give me another task as you request here's our first team task of the [Music] season hey there hey hello how are you not too bad long time

no see hello how are you hello I'm jul Danielle nice to meet you nice to see oh my God Nina did you do that no was that part of did you do that well you know a fun fact about today oh my God hello how you going oh my God this is what's going on do we open the Tas now I think I'll be mad if we don't let's all do it at the same time okay okay we should do okay we thank you my sweet no no worries transform into chiplets into twins most convincing transformation wow my the most convincing transform

ation wins you have 30 minutes transformation goes back to the start you transform transformation time starts watch his finger watch what he does oh he controls the how come he not now there it is we almost which team is transforming for us first it's Julia and Danielle P I think he going to be play for this look oh so I need a wig I reckon there we go yeah yeah that's good I me actually we got to do that thing where you like finish each other's sentences sentences yeah yes exactly exactly perfe

ct and do you know what what I'm loving just having the same thoughts at all times oh yeah did you prove that you're having the same thought well um what I'm thinking about now is um golden retrievers yes and you were both thinking we were both both thinking about and you're not just saying that because she said golden retriever how supposed to aggressive and it's accus so justed but i' love to stand in front like a family snap do you know what I mean his hand like it's a dad with his hand that'

s amazing he's he's got he's got to his arm we must be running out of time oh I love when he does the whistle I'm not going to lie you think you twinned well um I think we were the very essence of [Applause] twins by beautiful beautiful I'm just imagining you as my twins I think I'd be quite proud yeah I think you did a great job what do you think we're lovely girls we looked identical dream boat dream boat I don't know what else you're looking for well if you were my twins I'd know which one wa

s my favorite um I'll leave that unsaid is it fair to say twins are born minutes apart not decades and we're talking multiple decades okay well I think they did a great job and it was a great photo at the end uh let's birth our triplet shall we here's Luke Nina and Jimmy the other team probably thinking the same thing we are which is like we wear the same outfit what's a little twist we can put on it we could become a triplet as in like the musical note triplet like a triplet with there's three

of those with a line on the top let's do that let's do that let's get the instruments where we hold an egg up to our face like like this like the egg is our face the egg have three egg heads and then we make like Tom silver riddle we are the eggs oh yes sorry oh my Blanket's falling off and my egg [Applause] fall and I Am The Scrambled we are the eggs fre you must answer these three riddles first riddle what is your name uh Tom thank you you have passed the first test second riddle how many time

s has the Moon Head an aneurism uh zero times he's correct again we got a brainiac over here oh third riddle final riddle o did the time who did the what who did the time who did the time who did the time who did the time who did the time did the time God correct I mean correct corre get out of the den oh see you thank you for everything it was going so well and then the sheet fell off and that really wrecked it uh what was that H isn't it obvious that was the famous eggs3 um from from Legend So

if you use Daniel's map that's where you get led to so I think it's pretty clear it was can you tell us in detail why should we describe why it's bad with one word each like the triplet it was oh my bad because it sucked couldn't think in triplet form a it's happening again I think the three of you demonstrated what happens if you're too supportive of each other and you're in a group where there's no bad ideas it means that they're all bad ideas okay time for some scores oh before we move on to

the scores there's one other component to this task that I think we should see oh yes the most convincing transformation wins you have 30 minutes also you must choreograph a beautiful dance to perform at the end of every team task you have five additional minutes for your beautiful dance choreography 5 6 7 8 1 2 3 [Music] [Music] 4 plump oh I love it looking forward to seeing our one y I think your one's going to be amazing oh there's no one for the other team what yeah it was just an EXT r Tre

at for us there's no points given for that that's just that's so rude there are more team tasks coming up too so let's just say that's not the last beautiful macarina we're going to be saying oh that's so bad I can't believe he did that to us I can all right time for some scores the triplets were the Twins were good so the triplets get one each okay and uh the twins get 5H easy baby Cashman are we ready for another task for this one it's Cricket [Music] [Applause] [Music] time [Music] [Applause]

yeah oh sorry it's me Tom Jimmy I'm ready to to task where is the T oh there it is oh look at this cricket ball classic six Stitcher a classic what six Stitcher all right okay perform the most passionate Cricket appeal most passionate Cricket appeal wins do you have 20 minutes to prepare your appeal your appeal starts when the ball hits the pads your time starts now I have a problem which is I don't know what Cricket appeal is is it like the most sexy cricketer like the most appealing cricketer

to any viewers who are worried because you don't know much about Cricket do not be concerned you are not alone how's that I don't get it this is going to go down well with the Australian public you got some Cricket appeals to show me then I won't make a cricket joke because she wouldn't understand it here's Daniel Walker what's a cricket appeal an appeal is the act of a player on the Fielding team asking an Umpire for a decision regarding whether a batter is out or not batter is out or not so y

ou've got to be angry that the batter's done something wrong I saw something behind the shed what did you see behind the shed a big thing that you wouldn't be able to use if you were a batter my Nana's going to be so disappointed she loves Cricket so I throw this at you and then and then I'll try and hit hit it with this yeah can we superimpose my head over the top of me be then I'll be you pretending I'm angry about him if you can move your hands like you're arguing and then we superimpose my f

ace onto you again okay yeah dude ref that's so naughty you can't hit with that big bat that's that's illegal that bat it's not used for this game that's just big circus freak game get him off this is proper Christmas Cricket the the big bash the test get it off the that's not allowed that bad it's legal um get it out of here the the Peel's done get him off that's good who's the most famous Australian cricketer of all time oh that man he died when I was in school and um everybody loved him is hi

s name be B Bob Bob Bob Bob Bob what's his you know him Bob they called him the green the green hat the green the floppy green the floppy the baggy the baggy green what's his name Don Bradman that's it it's not Bob it's Don oh yeah I got it who couldn't forget that Australian Legend the green hat Bob Bob Bob BR I know it said with three letters you know I looked it up and Don Bradman when he was born his name before he changed it before he got famous was Robert Bob for short really no [Applause]

that's rude okay I think you didn't know what an appeal was cuz your appeal was over the batsman using the wrong bat that's what you're upset about oh yeah I think Tom said that a fieldsman gets angry when the batter does something yes and so I figured well if I was a fi I'd be pretty angry CU I had all that surface area but in a game of cricket you wouldn't have to go how that and then the ire would go that's not a cricket bat they could tell as soon as they walked out onto the pitch that's a

giant croquet Mallet go back to the Pavilion all right who's running in next I'm still not tempted to make a cricket reference she's even less familiar with it than Danielle it's Nina oyama okay in cricket how far is the batter out how far is the B out yeah like someone would have stand in like out Zone can someone's hold this bat and stand next to the tree this like perfect little tree over here I feel like all of Australia is going to be mad at me for not knowing Cricket yes umpire Tom have yo

u made your decision as to whether the batter is in or out okay what if I do this and this and this have you made a decision as to whether the batter is in or out yet no excuse me Mr umpire I'm passionately making a plane and appeal to your heart have you made a decision as to whether the batter is in or out yet yes the batter is out and why is he out he's over there he's over there andc good um why do you have Sunny's on now cuz I'm scared well it's a lot to take in but I did make an appeal to

the cricket master or whatever ter is in the Cricket World okay who's next Tom Cashman it's not this guy's first time playing the field here is Luke McGregor what are you thinking I feel like I don't know like I need like someone to say how's that too it's just me and pants this guy is the bird so this guy can be the Wicket keeper okay guess so now I need some fielders um and I've had a thought okay M now I need some uh rope or string rope or string yeah oh the bats yeah cuz he's going to have a

swing at it and then he's going to dive to try and catch it the Fielder Dives between the bowler and the batsman one of the beauties of sporters that it's unpredictable so 100% [Music] yeah how [Music] that no but I have to start the appeal starts when the ball hits the pads oh the ball hits the pads okay uh where's the where's the ball it's okay I've got an idea okay I've got a yeah I got a pair how's that yeah suck it hang on so how you play criet is you get a giraffe and a knight and then yo

u pull a bit of string to be fair Nina I don't think you've earned the right to be sarcastic about someone else's attempt to play cricket Luke uh what what were you attempting there what I thought if I tied all the string to the to the Knight and the giraffe the bat would move and then it would hit the pad and then the giraffe would look like the giraffe was going for the catch what actually happened is I got tangled up in the string and then got and then we ran out of time okay so why did you k

ick over the draft I was angry at it for not participating at least it was starting to resemble Cricket I suppose so I think the thing with luks is there's a lot of extraneous stuff and the passion of the appeal was what we need to be measuring so I've actually prepared a shorter video that just shows The Passion of the appeal me we probably have time for that think here it is how's that really fires you up doesn't it to get jimy Cricket it's Jimmy playing Cricket are you a cricket fan I do like

Cricket yeah I was not good at it I played it when I was younger until about 14 and then there was some Behemoth it was probably Bret Lee showed up one week and I was next in Bat the next week and I said to Dad I'm not playing anymore you didn't go I didn't go the next week he would have been 25t tall David and Goliath is what it is if David didn't show off to the battle if if David just ran which just a Val Point next into bat is 14-year-old Behemoth man from Jimmy's past might not remember me

but I remember you oh you may run from a fight and live a long and prosperous life but revenge is way sweeter and stuff I'm an accountant now I don't know why you're holding on to this golden yes come on next in Bat actual Bret leay damn jimy that was very disorienting having you knowing how to play cricket after all we've been through but I got to say that was amazing I mean it had everything you played Cricket uh you actually got someone out you had a traumatic backstory the your pill was ful

l of passion it was for a legitimate reason I can't fault it there was there was no giraffe what would you say to Behemoth boy if he's watching the show now well I'd say look who's Corona Fair now all right who have we got next I find this contestant a little bit intimidating nothing to do with Cricket but it's true here's Julia Morris perform the most passionate Cricket appeal so by appeal are you talking about fundraiser your appeal starts when the ball hits the pads oh man is that the time st

arting now just hit the pads or do you want me to bowl it your appeal has begun the ball has hit the pads oh I'm in it oh gosh hi I'm Julian Morris Cricket's really suffering right now what would be really nice is for all of these really highly paid athletes is to get paid a little bit more especially the female cricketers who are obviously going to be a whole lot less please ring the number now on your screen and give as much as you can Cricket needs it please give generously that's how you do

it when you don't have any knowledge of cricket oh but sir I have much knowledge of cricket I grew up in a big Cricket house well I think it was like a a great use of the word appeal but unfortunately I think you approached the appeal with all the passion you've approached all your other commercial endorsements you kind of phoned it in no that's it absolutely it's a signature moves I know you just like you just went straight into presenter mode and did the bare minimum I'm happy to forgo the fac

t that a lot of you did not know about cricket and just base it purely on passion uh so Nina's on one CU you're it was the whole thing was all over the shop but you just were like hello can you please make the person out Luke your appeal wasn't very passionate and then Julia I liked what you did but it had all the passion of a paid for presentation so three Danielle you're on four cuz there was heaps of passion but a bit too much CGI but uh on five is Jimmy race does it had everything what has t

hat done to our episode scoreboard tonight winning the episode currently it's Daniel with 15 points all right everything to play for off your bums and up on the stage it's time for a live [Music] task oh it's as intriguing a setup as I've ever seen uh what's going on Julia could you please read the time convince the Taskmaster that you deserve Five Points you must use a method from one of the paddles when you are finished convincing place your paddle in the paddling pool the least convincing con

testant in each round is eliminated you will have 10 seconds each per round the last player standing wins Nina I'm going to do this one in a foreign language task master son uh Five Points CR I casually mention uh yeah yeah it's interesting also if you got five points L I'll I'll take him you know what I don't care if you know would would Timmy in character as the task Master's wife I know all the funny business all right I know you you bring home the bacon all right but I'll be having the Five

Points okay you're the stupid guy that I get I get the points all right we know who wears the pants hey Taskmaster Julia has chosen seductively D Master puppy dog eyes Danielle you're done Nina passionately plea using words that start with P please PP Five Points I would really appreciate P degrade yourself I'm real piece of I don't deserve five point I I shouldn't even be here I don't even I don't think I'm even holding this sign very well you in song one two 3 four five give me the points and

if you you're alive yes in the morning and even in the evening and even right now on the Taskmaster seat yeah making a promise you must then keep Taskmaster um I've got friends that know your family so if I don't get the Five Points I'm going to drive my vehicle in the pool so Nina you're done silently suggest okay oh I went to whisper and then I realized it silently I can't say anything yeah so I just stood there next to Tom and panic to politely ask why' it take so long for someone to choose t

hat hello Tom Glon Taskmaster standing right in front of me could I please have five points cool calm and collected I haven't actually asked for the Five Points in any of the ones so far cuz I can't work out what 10 seconds is so I'd really love the points if if there's a possibility Jimmy's done don't milk it sit down firmly demand Tommy you piece of give me five points Julia has one one paddle remaining and it says desperately beg I'm going to die before all of these people I really feel the F

ive Points that will give me a lot of self-esteem that I've lost since my Deport It's tricky to split the two Julia was very convincing but I feel like Julie was acting within her specialty whereas I think Luke actually asserting himself was way outside his comfort zone so I'm making Luke the winner of that task how's it looking Tom well our live task saw Danielle take home one point Nina 2 Jimmy 3 Julia 4 and the winner of the live task was Luke with Five Points which means the winner of this e

pisode is Julia Morris with 18 point congratulations of Julia you'll rest easy for eternity knowing you're buried with five very desirable items a shovel a phone and some worms are coming your way get on stage and take them to your grave and that's us another episode down tonight we learned that thongs for the most part are bound to the Earth by the laws of physics we learned the answers to three of the most complex riddles ever devised by three eggs and we didn't learn a single thing about the

actual rules of cricket most importantly however we learned our episode three winner is Julia doesn't she deserve it peace and love to all we'll be back next week look it [Applause] [Music] up [Applause] for more Taskmaster subscribe [Music] now
