    Taskmaster Intro

    Thank you for the clapping. I'm Greg Davies, and this is Taskmaster. It's the semi-final, which means our five contestants are running out of time to win crucial Taskmaster points. Points that could change their lives forever. Whoever wins this series is guaranteed immortality through the title of series: champion of Taskmaster. So let's meet the people still clinging on to the hope of winning this almighty cranium.

    Assistant Intro

    And, forever needlessly loitering, little Alex Horne!

    Taskmaster's Sign-off

    So what have we learnt today? Nous avons appris que les chats est dans les chapeaux, et les chat est dans Nish. Le chat ils fait mort. Et Alex c'est un dick. That's it for another Taskmaster. Well done to Bob and see you next time for the grand finale! Good night!
