Episode 8: Dingo dongo

Episode synopsis

In this episode, the contestants must bring in an object that has really seen some shit, break a dozen eggs from the furthest distance, correctly identify items through a mattress, show a different side of themselves, and blow bubbles through a hoop.

Title context

While summarising his own performance in the ‘Break a dozen eggs from the furthest distance’ task, Josh Thomas says “Bingo-bango. Bob’s your uncle. Let’s go home, dingo-dongo.”

Taskmaster Intro

Hello, and welcome to Taskmaster. My name is Tom Gleason, and to all of the critics watching who all season long have alleged that, as a host, I lack range, and that I’m too curmudgeonly – that I suffocate the playful Taskmaster spirit – I say, look at this. Are you happy? Competing series-long for this, my honeyed spud, are five comedians, all of whom have made verbal commitments to being the least-spudded versions of themselves.

Assistant Intro

And sitting by me… If you think the tiny throne he sits on is sad, you should see the bare mattress on the floor in his bedroom. It’s my assistant, Tom Cashman.

Taskmaster's Sign-off

And there we have it. Eight episodes down, and what have we learned? We learned that Anne’s outfit looks good on a mannequin, but even better on Josh. We learned that Lloyd loves skipping stones almost as much as he loves skipping out on his family to have torrid affairs. And Wil taught us way more than we wanted to know about what the inside of his beast hole looks like. Congrats once more to our winner, Josh. And goodnight to all you winners!
