    I absolutely loved this series. Everyone was really good! I could understand Rosie fine though. Years of practice with my husband who has cerebral palsy as well.

    It’s funny, because he couldn’t understand her well at all. Guess if you’re speaking you don’t hear your own impediment.

    i’ll be blunt: in the past, i’ve not had much patience for rosie jones (on wilty, bfq) but i have thoroughly enjoyed watching her on this series of taskmaster.

    shouting out babatunde during the “boring names” task, “where the fuck did gilbert come from?!”, “captain jackie and the hotdog!” and her subsequent antics after the task, “honk if you miss me”, her blow-up at alex horne in the bomb-defusing task, and her sheer enthusiasm at being introduced in every single episode were all highlights for me.

    this series has taught me to be a better, more accepting, person.

    (aside: is captain jackie only the second contestant to have his name included in an episode title after "activate jamali’?)

    Baba was probably the worst contestant they’ve ever had. I was hoping to warm up to him over the course of the series, but he brought precious little to the table. Jack was fine—a bit disappointing in light of how obviously excited Alex was to have finally got him on. Loved the other three, top marks for them!

    Wasn’t a huge fan of the pub quiz. Loved the goose, and all of Andy’s prize tasks. Found Alex’s blatant efforts to tilt things Jack’s way kind of off-putting. Ignoring Baba’s obvious running in the maze task was disappointing. Glad Andy won, look forward to seeing him on CoC.
