Episode 7: An intervention

Episode synopsis

In this episode the contestants must bring in the worst thing to show the Taskmaster, hit Paul with a frisbee, go on a convincing fake holiday, paint the Taskmaster like a 5-year-old, and sculpt the third most impressive dog.

Title context

Taskmaster Intro

Welcome, friends, to the seventh episode of Taskmaster. My name's Jeremy Wells, and I am the Taskmaster. Many months ago, I invited five comedians to attempt a series of tasks I left for them at a secret location. All of these tasks were designed to test them in unique ways, and none involve any transferable skills they can bring over into real life. At the end of the season, one competitor will be crowned Taskmaster Champion, and they will receive this majestic head, which they can surgically implant onto their neck, or just put on a bookshelf. Let's introduce our contestants.

Assistant Intro

And, to my left, a man who is, in many ways, the receptionist of Taskmaster. Nothing would get done without him. It's Paul Anthony Williams.

Taskmaster's Sign-off

What a rewarding hour of television it's been. We've learned that overseas travel is possible in 2020, you just need a Bunnings lawn chair. We've learned that children paint like children much better than adults. And, yes, we've learned that our winner for episode seven is Leigh Hart. Congratulations.
