Episode synopsis

In this episode the contestants must bring in the thing that scares they the most, make a large object vanish, transfer soup from one vat to another, leave the room as quickly as possible, and pop up before a toaster does.

Title context

'The problem is me' was a realisation by Guy Williams after Angella Dravid called him out for finding vaginas 'uncomfortable', after the 'Make a large object vanish' task.

Alternate Titles

  • On Sweden's SVT Play streaming platform, this episode is titled 'Det är jag som är problemet', which translates as 'It is me who is the problem'. This is a fairly straight translation of the original episode title, which was a quote from Guy Williams. [Translator credit: DANI]

    Assistant Intro

    And, to my left, a highly intelligent being who helps me with things. He's like Siri, if Siri was a handsome 28-year-old man with the dexterity to give you a pre-show foot massage. It's Paul Williams!

    Taskmaster's Sign-off

    What an illuminating eveningof tasks. We learned that if you want to make something disappear, just chuck it in a stream. We've learnt that a rake is a completely adequate soup receptacle. Most of all, we've learnt that the winner of episode six is none other than Angella Dravid. Congratulations!
