Episode synopsis

In this season finale, the contestants must litter the garden and clean it up, write and perform a song about a stranger, transport a coconut as far as possible, conceal grapes in their mouth or hand, greet David from different countries, make a replica of an existing object, get as high as possible, and stand up after exactly 100 seconds. Also, Nassim Al Fakir gets to sing along to the Taskmaster theme tune.

Alternate Titles

  • On Finland's MTV Katsomo streaming platform, this episode is titled 'Kohti korkeuksia', which translates as 'Upwards'. This is presumably a reference to the 'Get as high as possible' task. [Translator credit: zador]

    Notes on discrepancies

    • The cause of the point discrepancies in this episode is not known.
    • The scores shown as of the mid-episode scoreboard update, after the fifth task, were consistent with the points observed to have been awarded.
    • Given that everyone had received an additional 5 points by the end of the episode than were observed to have been awarded, it appears possible that there was an additional, unaired task, in which all five contestants somehow scored 5 points each.
    • Fortunately, as everyone's scores differed by the same number of points, this did not affect who was named as the winner of the episode, and would also not have had any affect on the overall series scores.
