Episode 9: The beepie beepies

Image of some small chocolate cakes on a baking tray, with hundreds and thousands unevenly sprinkled over them, and small red sealing wax candles instead of normal birthday candles (a reference to Emma Holland's attempt at the 'Celebrate your selected national day' task), with the episode title 'The beepie beepies' superimposed on it.

Episode synopsis

In this episode, the contestants must bring in the thing that most gives them the heebie-jeebies, celebrate their randomly selected national day, paint the other team (while) bouncing on a bouncy castle, summon Tom to the caravan with a walkie-talkie, and perform and then lip-sync to an original love song.

Title context

Tom Cashman suggests to Tom Gleeson that Waka’s alarm gives him “the beepie-beepies”, rather than the heebie-jeebies, during scoring of the ‘The thing that most gives you the heebie-jeebies’ prize task.

Taskmaster Intro

Hello. Welcome to Taskmaster. We’re nearly at the end of our season, which means I might only have a couple more cracks at this before they replace me with someone younger and more active on social media. For now, I’m still Tom Gleeson.

Assistant Intro

And next to me – his two best friends are a cardboard cut-out of one of the spy kids from ‘Spy Kids’, and his own drawing of the other spy kid from ‘Spy Kids’ – it’s Tom Cashman.

Taskmaster's Sign-off

But what have we learnt? We learnt once again that Hughesy has zero musical talent. And we learnt that Tom Cashman wants the words ‘beepie-beepies’ on his gravestone. Give one more cheer to Emma for cleaning up with another one!
