Taskmaster NYT 2025 PATREON VERSION
Added 2025-12-19 10:46:37 +0000 UTC
David James, Hannah Fry, Martin Lewis, Melanie BLATT and Sue Johnston
The only person I knew going into this when it came out was Sue Johnston but I liked everyone pretty much instantly on the prize task, really good cast for the NYT
I like Bobby Fish… but he’s got this fish gimmick

Speaking of, she is also doing a new series with Michael Stevens, which is right up my alley but I haven't bothered to check it out yet.

I know Hannah from Numberphile (a youtube channel for math nerds, Matt Parker is also on it frequently, or at least he used to be). I honestly didn't know she was a "real celebrity" until I saw her on Taskmaster. (I'm not sure what I mean by "real celebrity" there... hopefully it makes sense)

Hannah Fry is fantastic. She currently hosts a podcast/Youtube show called "The Rest Is Science" with VSauce. She also cohosted the Stand Up 2 Cancer live show last week (with LAH).
Ability to explain complex subjects really well, very funny to boot too.

Hannah Fry has a radio show with Dara O Briain called Curious Cases she used to do it with Adam Rutherford it's science based quite good she's also hosted HIGNFY on a number of occasions Sue played Sheila Grant a channel 4 soap in the 80s also The Royal Family sitcom which might be worth reacting to

So I was actually at the filming for this one, I was in the balcony right behind greg. For the regret task, there was a debate between professor hannah and the others when she spoke about being dared to lick a lollipop her friend found in a urinal. We also had to reshoot the ending twice because dear old Sue just stood there behind the prizes not waving or doing anything whilst the audience applauded

There are outtakes and they’re my favourite Nyt outtakes - Martin Lewis, bless him. Looks like the main video has vanished and they exist as shorts sadly!
Martin and his wife in the outtakes is my fav but just a short https://youtube.com/shorts/qfwmDt_9UMk?si=eV1PLRs5ibbfQjEd
Askmaster with the coc4 is fun and short so could be part of your reaction next week
Apart from that, the s20 outtakes and taskmastermind James vs dara - you’re caught up!
