Taskmaster's Sign-off

So, what have we learnt today? Well, we've learnt that once upon a time, there was a family called the Pennyfields. They lived in a little house. Some had pipe-cleaner legs. Some had metal shoes. Their owner was insane. That's show seven, then. Please give another round of applause for today's winner, Mr Joe Lycett! See you next time for the final of Taskmaster. Good night!
