ALEX GROWLS
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Hello, welcome to Taskmaster.
I'm Greg Davies, and I'm just your average guy.
I like fast cars, good wine,
and the feel of a strong mountain wind howling through my legs
as I look across my kingdom, hands on hips,
naked as the day I was born.
Naked as my creator intended.
Fully naked.
It's within this kingdom that five disparate souls
have been doing battle.
Their task completing ability so far has ranged from "Good"
to "Are you all right? Seriously?
"Do you need to call someone?"
Let's open a new chapter, but before we do...
Still thinking about me naked on the mountain, aren't you?
Me too. Hot sauce.
Please welcome Dara O Briain...
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
..Fern Brady...
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
..John Kearns...
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
..Munya Chawawa...
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
..and Sarah Millican.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
And next to me, a man who confided in me recently that he thinks
all primary school teachers are the scum of the Earth.
HIGH VOICE: It's Little Alex Horne.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Not all. Not all.
Hello, everyone.
Hi, Greg. Hi, mate.
Oh, I'm feeling so wistful.
What's happening? I was just sort of thinking back.
I was trying to remember my first memory.
I was trying to think, "What's my first memory?"
And I think... It's weird.
I think it's the first time I tasted ham.
I was in a restaurant, or somewhere like that,
with my wife, and, er...
2008. It was wafer thin ham. Have you had wafer thin ham?
Yep. I think that's my first memory.
So I thought I'd say that.
OK. And the punch line?
Do you want some euros? You can have some euros?
There's 50 euros.
Right, let's get on with the prize task, shall we?
Today you've asked them all to bring in
the most useless thing that you've bought that cost over £20.
Hmm! Oh! And, yes, the item Greg Davies thinks is
the most useless will get its owner five satisfying points.
Then at the end of the show, the overall winner will take home
over £100 worth of prizes. Whoa, mama!
Good. Good. Right, Fern?
I have brought a harness and leash for my cat.
Here is Fern's cat harness.
AUDIENCE: Aw!
A genuine thing.
We all went "Aw," but I think we were doing that at the pretend cat,
not at the fairly S&M-looking cat leash.
My gym membership hadn't really worked out,
so I had this notion that
the cat was going to do all these outdoors things with me.
I think we've got video footage.
Yes, yes. Oh, my God. This is the cat wearing the harness.
Time for your walk. Come on.
I cannot believe I thought this was a good idea.
Oh, my God!
It's pretty useless.
That was £70, by the way.
Jesus Christ.
Dara?
I, it turns out, purchased a worm trumpet.
Yeah, this is Dara's worm trumpet.
There you go.
You're supposed to lie in the ground and put your ear to it,
and you can hear the worms move in the ground below.
Wow.
And actually, if you do listen to it, you don't hear a lot.
And even if you do, it's worms.
It's not like it's opening a magical door into a...
They're not tap-dancing down there, are they? No.
So far, so strong, I've got to say. So far, so far.
Yeah, but great news. John next.
John's here.
Erm, so it's a...
..a streaker for Subbuteo.
Yes, it is, and here it is.
You bought it?
Yeah, I bought that, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
I love that.
Wow.
It's useless, cos I don't own any Subbuteo.
This is one of John's strongest things he's done on the show so far.
Munya, what have you brought in?
I have brought in a golden snitch fidget spinner.
Wow. So I have to say this is not actually linked to Harry Potter.
It cost me 15 quid.
I brought it in because it's got more emotional significance
than it does use, cos I had a very strict Zimbabwean Christian dad.
Growing up, I wasn't allowed to watch Harry Potter,
so this isn't just an object, it's an act of rebellion.
Wow. Great story. Yeah.
Shame it only cost 15 quid, and subsequently fails.
Were you secretly into Harry Potter, then?
Yeah, massively, like all the other guys at school were watching porn,
and I was watching The Chamber Of Secrets.
Did you have to sneak off and watch it somewhere?
Yeah, I had to watch it under the covers. I had to make a little tent.
He had to make a Harry Potter tent.
Shall we pretend it cost £21?
Yeah, give it to him. OK.
In fact, I'll ask him. OK.
Hey, Munya, how much was it?
£21.
Sarah?
I decided to try and make vegetables more fun
to stop me eating so many sweets,
so I bought a mandoline.
The reason it's useless is because I used it once
and I genuinely threw away something called a finger protector.
LAUGHTER
And I shouted to my husband, "Look, look, look, it's going well,"
and I had a courgette, and it was going well,
and then it went down too quickly and took the top of me finger off.
Let's have a look at the murderous object.
OK, here is the mandoline.
There we go.
So I took it in in a bag of ice into A&E,
and it was perched on a slice of courgette,
and the nurse held it up, and he went,
"What were you having for your tea?"
I think it's quite useful if you use it properly
and you don't take your digit off.
Well, I was trying to lose weight,
and I did manage to lose a little bit, so...
The woman took the end of her finger off,
so let's give her more than one.
Right. So we'll start with two points.
So, Sarah, you get two points.
Joint three points to Fern and Munya.
OK, they're joint third. Good. Yes.
Incredibly, I'm going to put the worm trumpet in second place.
Four to Dara, and for five,
it is just mystifying why the man would buy the streaker.
Five to John Kearns. There we go, five points to John Kearns.
APPLAUSE
Do you have a task ready, Alex? Yes, I do,
and in some ways, this was a rubbish shoot for everybody.
Oooh!
Hi, Fern. Hiya.
Hello, Munya. Alex, let me tell you this right now -
got a good feeling about this.
HE IMITATES SOUND OF BONGOS
SHE CACKLES
"Get the most pleasure..."
.."pleasure."
"..pleasure from all of these rubber chutes."
"You have 30 minutes."
"Your time starts now."
So, first thoughts - just a massive slide.
Slide.
I wish they were bigger, cos I'd just make a slide.
LAUGHTER
Well, I would just go inside.
And then what would you do?
Er, have a sleep.
LAUGHTER
Are they percussive?
DULL CLANGS
I'm going to need five little chocolates. Five little choccies.
FERN: Oh!
CHAINS RATTLE
FERN CRIES OUT
Are you having pleasure?
Oh, I can see a little green fly.
Yep, right, OK.
Fern, is fair to say that a lot of our tasks
are getting in the way of you having a nice sleep?
Ah, now, it's for a very good reason.
I was so excited about coming in to do the task days
that I didn't sleep, which then meant I was tired
and couldn't do my tasks very well.
Every day when you came in,
I would say, "I've been too excited again."
Yeah!
Well, I've written down what my perception of what we're about
to see is. I think we're getting three slides, one with choccies,
and a big Irishman playing a giant glockenspiel.
OK, we're going to start with two very physical men,
Munya and Dara.
What are you doing with that, Munya?
I am giving myself maximum pleasure.
There we go. Suits him.
Yeah, got to give it to the man sometimes. Give him one of these.
Go on.
I don't want to.
You know those machines in baseball that whack the thing at you?
You're kind of like a human version of that,
and there's hurling, which is the Irish national sport. OK.
Yeah, so we set up a target,
but that's not important. Let's not dwell on that.
Let's put this on.
OK, good.
Does that feel secure?
Er, no, not at all.
Allow me to introduce you to Knocowt.
The goal is to hit the cow.
Here it comes, OK?
Nope!
Right, ready? Three...
Did it work? No, cos you started twerking.
Oh!
Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho!
Right, three, two, one.
Oh, no.
Ready? Yep.
Let's go closer.
Are we still having fun? Yes, yes. Good, good.
You ready? Yes.
OK, that worked!
CLANG
Ho-ho-ho!
Yes, we hit one!
Yes!
That was fun!
Three, two...
Yes!
Oh-ho-ho!
We did it!
I'm going to go and get some water. Do you want anything?
Yeah, a little bit of milk. Little bit of milk? All right.
Thank you. Well, she can sort you with that.
APPLAUSE
When I was a young man, my dad took me to a tennis court once
for a tennis lesson, and what he actually did was fire aces past me.
Watching you dredged up those memories for me,
cos you looked like you were just lost in your own world.
I was... Am I your dad in this or am I you swinging wildly?
You're my dad. OK. You're my dad, Dara. OK.
Well, this is an interesting dynamic. Er...
Munya, what's this giving it to the man action?
It's a sign of respect.
I can do it now if you want. I want you to give it to the man.
All right, shall I give it to the man?
Yeah. All right, then.
OK, I'll just give you one little one.
Don't zoom in just cos it's quite cold.
Oh!
Quite gentle.
Er, who's next?
Er, well, I can imagine John's friends and family would like
to see what John did, so here's what John did.
Have pleasure. Oh, I'm going to have a lot of pleasure.
Here we go.
Oh!
HE YELLS IN DISPLEASURE
Is it pleasurable?
Oh, yeah.
Where's the choccies, huh?
You'll find them.
HE YELLS IN DISPLEASURE
Oooh.
HE GRUNTS IN DISPLEASURE
Alex?
Yes, John? Can I have some pleasure time now?
All right, do you want me to lower the flap? Yes, please.
Have pleasure.
OK. That was fantastic.
Could you, er, lift my flap?
Yes, I'd love too. Here we go.
HE GROANS IN DISPLEASURE
Right.
Fuck me, imagine I get this.
Genuine pleasure.
Oh!
Shit!
But it's fun, this is the thing, it's very pleasurable. OK.
Oh, right, throw the ball... head it straight in.
Got to leap like a salmon. I will, yeah.
I'm trying my best.
Oh, fuck it.
Ugh! Didn't even hit the bell.
John, what's your definition of pleasure?
Doing something well.
I put it to you
you were demonstrably in pain throughout most of it.
Yeah, I did... I didn't enjoy going down the slide.
But there were five little choccies.
And then, on national television,
you reveal that you're not very good at football.
There was no Munya style, "Yeah!"
There was none of that, John.
No, I'm not like Munya.
You're kind of giving it...
You need to give it to the man, bro, I've been telling you.
No, I don't give it. Gon on, give it to the man.
I enjoyed giving it to the man. You can give it to the man.
Give it to the man. Just give it to the man.
You'll feel so much better, John. Get up and give it to the man.
OK, three two one, give it to the man.
And there we go.
APPLAUSE
Join us back here very soon.
VERY soon. I'm starting the clock now.
Go!
APPLAUSE
Hello. Welcome back to Taskmaster.
There's a little guy sitting next to me
who just can't wait to talk to you.
Ooh!
Before the break, Munya and Dara tried to get the most pleasure
out of some rubbish chutes by using them for sport like proper men.
We also saw John's attempt.
Finally... LAUGHTER
Finally, it's Fern and Sarah and their ideas of pleasure.
I have an idea!
SHE LAUGHS
It feels like I'm doing bad things to my dad or something.
I would like you to first put on a blindfold,
and then I'm passing you a shower cap... Why?
..to protect your lovely hair. Oh.
Do you like bananas? Yes.
Catch them in your mouth. Right.
So I just want you to be ready for anything. Is that all right?
Yes.
Oh!
Oh! Ooh!
Where is it going to come from?
Yes!
I haven't finished the first bit.
Well, I didn't want to give you a chance to finish it
cos that's not the task. The task is my pleasure.
Yeah. Are you finding it pleasurable?
Yeah, it's really good fun! Is it?
Is that one finished?
That one's finished.
Now what?
Oh!
Ugh!
Make your thin lips stick out more.
Please.
Did you say "please"?
I won't have any passive aggressive stuff from you, please.
I'm trying to wipe my hands,
but everywhere I wipe it, they're getting dirtier.
Oh, yep. Yep.
That's not sore. Raise your eyebrow.
Did you say that's NOT sore?
I can smell something.
Egg?
Drink this. Drink this.
It's warm.
I quite like it. Is it soup?
You look scary now.
Right. Have you finished?
Erm, yeah.
Er...
I've got bananas all over my feet.
Right.
Did you enjoy yourself?
No, I didn't enjoy myself.
I did, though.
Yeah.
SARAH LAUGHS Bye!
Bye-bye.
APPLAUSE
Well, I mean straight off the bat,
two things gave me a great deal of pleasure -
Alex Horne in your dress,
and the sentence, "Catch them in your mouth."
It was so much fun,
because I was brought up to be, like, tidy and polite
and all of the rubbish things,
and it was so great to just let loose, and I had a tremendous time.
I could see. You know, how many of us haven't been told by our parents,
"Don't you throw cream at someone through a big pipe"?
LAUGHTER
Fern, yours was a bit more Medieval, I thought?
What was a curve-ball for me, and when it started becoming like Misery
the film, was when out of nowhere you decided to fill his mouth
full of ketchup. Yeah.
The thing is, he's extremely passive aggressive,
so he does a lot of things like goes "Hmm" under his breath.
Yeah. A very English brand of passive aggressive
that just makes me want to be violent to him.
Yeah.
It's so hard to score that,
because everybody looked like they were having fun.
Well, I have isolated their pleasure on their faces.
You can see four of them here.
A lot of genuine pleasure.
John looked like this.
LAUGHTER
So it's neck and neck.
I think what I need to reward is multiple forms of pleasure,
so that means Dara, even though he was pumped up
like the most competitive dad... Competitive dad.
LAUGHTER
What was that? The competitive dad?
Even though Dara was such a competitive dad...
Competitive dad? Competitive dad.
..he was only enjoying one form of pleasure,
albeit aggressive and full-throated. I'm going to give him two points.
Two to Dara, fine. What?!
I'm going to give John three points,
because honestly, I think that John just expresses pleasure
in a different way, that's all.
I felt that Munya and Sarah were having equal amounts of fun.
I'm going to give them four points each.
But Fern's was just so weird,
and the reason she's got five points is she didn't even say goodbye
at the end. She just wandered off. OK. So five points to Fern.
There it is. There we go. Five points to Fern Brady.
APPLAUSE
Scoreboard, please.
Well, we have two people in joint last,
but two people in joint first as well, and that's Fern and John.
APPLAUSE
Next, please.
OK, well, it's time for another routine team task.
UPBEAT TUNE PLAYS
Hello, Alex. Yeah!
MUNYA BEATBOXES
This is a nice ambience.
Oh, amazing.
Boom.
You may now open the task.
Woo! Let's do it.
THEY HUM THE TUNE
"The best routine to..." Oh, fuck.
"..perform the best routine to this musical backing."
"You've got 30 minutes. Your time starts now."
DARA SIGHS
We just did it. That's what I've got, that's it.
Let's listen to it again. OK.
TUNE PLAYS AGAIN
I know seven types of martial arts.
Do you?! Do you? Yep. Try and hit me.
No. No, no. Just try, just try.
You told me, so you're ready.
I'll hit you later on when you're making a cup of tea.
All right. I'm not an idiot.
How do you draw a dance number?
Oh, that's a classic problem for choreographers for generations.
So we're going to do a workout routine. Yeah.
Apologies for any accidental farts.
There is this idea, of course.
APPLAUSE
INAUDIBLE BUT SOON-TO-BE-REVEALED DISCUSSION
I just said to John, "Who did that shit drawing?"
And he was like, "That was you."
You probably had a sleep shortly after.
Lots to look forward to in yours, I think.
Mm. I think we've got a picture
of Munya's face when you threatened to accidentally fart.
Here it is.
LAUGHTER
But it's better to apologise first for anything that might happen.
Shall we crack on? We'll crack on.
With a combined age of 119 at the time of recording,
it's Dara and Fern and John.
NOW-FAMILIAR TUNE PLAYS
APPLAUSE
Right, that was weird.
It's the, er, title sequence to an American sitcom from the '80s.
That's what we thought the music sounded like.
And your character, Biff Chippington. Biff Chippington, yes.
He was the actor, was he? He's the actor who plays the character.
Oh, sorry. Chip Biffington is the character.
And he's also actually quite a senior doctor.
Dr Coco Pops?
Or a recurring patient. It's difficult to know.
Yeah, I'm in every week with a different problem.
Yeah. So like there, my skull had to be removed from my stomach.
Sorry, had Dr Pops died on this occasion?
I die every week.
Time for a break now,
or, as my uncle who couldn't pronounce vowels used to say,
"Tm fr brk nw."
See you in a bit.
APPLAUSE
Hello. Welcome back to Taskmaster,
where we're midway through a team task.
Mm, he's just dreamy.
And right, too. There's a catchy tune which the teams are trying
to perform the best routine too.
We've had hospital melodrama.
Now it's time to see some Sarah Munya drama.
UNFAMILIAR INTRO
THE TUNE PLAYS YET AGAIN
APPLAUSE
It's a classic training montage.
Mm-hm. You were swiping things away.
There was the one finger press-ups. Press-ups, yeah.
There was the aimlessly punching at a loaf.
We couldn't get hold of a big amount of meat, you know, like a carcass.
Oh, you were going for that Rocky vibe?
Yeah. So we thought we'd do a more sort of... You know.
With a baguette? Yeah, little...
You do do martial arts, right? Seven different kinds.
I'd say there were three tops.
There are only three, but he does seven. Oh!
Right, how are you going to score them, then?
I'm going to be really generous today.
I'm going to give them four points because I enjoyed it very much,
and I'm going to give these lunatics five points
because I enjoyed it even better.
APPLAUSE
Where are we for the next one, Alex?
We are in baggage reclaim, Greg.
Alex! What you doing down there, you spicy turnip?
Hello. Hello, Sarah.
Well, it's genuinely eerie, this.
Really messed up opening that.
Oops!
"Place one luggage trolley a certain distance away from the line.
"Then starting behind the line,
"strike that luggage trolley with another luggage trolley."
I can do that, easy. Piss easy.
"If you strike the first luggage trolley
"with another luggage trolley...
"..you may move the first luggage trolley further away."
You may not move any unsuccessful luggage trollies.
"Furthest luggage trolley struck wins.
"You have ten minutes. Your time starts now."
Oh, they really do their own thing on the wheels, don't they?
Oh, my God. Maybe years of shopping in Asda will help.
APPLAUSE
To me, this is a childhood dream, to be in an abandoned airport.
I still got searched.
LAUGHTER
APPLAUSE
Right, it's a classic game of luggage trolley bowls.
Mm-hm. We're going to start with Sarah and Fern.
Oh, this is quite hard!
But fun?
One metre.
Yeah, I think that hit.
So I can move it back here? Wherever you want.
No!
OK, the further they are, the more chance there is that they veer off.
Yes.
Oh, no!
That was close.
Wondering whether to jam it in.
I don't know what I'm doing, Alex, but I'm going to give it a go.
Yes! OK.
It's touching it.
Yes!
Double trolley.
Oh, there's two!
You said, "Have some fun, Sarah.
"You're not letting any more fun in your life." That's what you said.
It was hurtful at the time,
but I've taken it on board, and I'm having a lovely time.
I actually thought I was going to do something magical there,
and yous would all be like, "Argh!"
Come on.
Yes!
One minute left.
Oh, Alex, I just realised I'm, like, wasting energy
going up to the line when I could just be pushing from here, right?
So you're learning.
Fuck off. Right.
This is your final trolley.
No!
It's like a trolley graveyard over there. It's horrible.
Maybe?
Yay!
Bye. Goodbye.
APPLAUSE
Sarah, did you surprise yourself with your temperament?
I had a nice time,
and I hate when anything reminds me that exercise is all right.
It really annoys me, cos I think, "Oh, it's just shit,"
and then I do some and I'll be like "Oh, I feel a bit better,"
then I think, "Fuck!"
If I was giving bonus points out any more, which I don't do,
you'd be getting one for telling Alex to fuck off so poetically.
Yes. Cos he did his passive aggressive thing again.
What did he do?
He went, "You see? You're learning, aren't you?"
Yeah. Patronising.
I think that one, I was trying to be just nice.
Trying to be, but you've come across as though you hate women.
Again. Let's crack on.
OK. Next up, it's J K Rowling.
That's John Kearns rolling some trolleys.
GREG SIGHS Again, I'm so sorry. Here we go.
Er...
They're having fun. Yeah.
I'll take a run up.
You're good at this, John.
Yeah?
Oh, wow.
That is impossible, isn't it?
You've had no unsuccessful trolleys, John.
Good distance.
I don't know. This feels far away, this thing.
Go on!
Go on, you...bastard.
Yes!
That hit it, John. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, saw that.
Thank you, John.
APPLAUSE
I thought you looked like a professional athlete.
You looked like you were born to bowl luggage trolleys
is what I felt, and I'm not even being mean and sarcastic like him.
I'm worried about something.
OK, John.
He didn't show my foot and the line.
You think there's a chance you might have gone over the line
and then we're going to cruelly reveal it afterwards?
LAUGHTER
You've been known to do it.
It was an amazing attempt by John. It was a pleasure to be there. Yep.
I do have to show you...
LAUGHTER
..just my favourite snap of the whole thing. Yeah.
Have a look at this. Let's have a look at that.
Behind the line. He's fine!
APPLAUSE
Well behind the line.
It's the end of part three, and if you think it's been rubbish so far,
don't worry, someone's going to win a fidget snipper after the break.
APPLAUSE
Welcome back.
You join us for the final part of Taskmaster.
We hadn't finished the trolley pushing task, had we,
Little Alex Horne? Good Lord, no!
John's in the lead so far, but there are two people left to go,
one smart, one fit.
So finally it's O'brains versus O'brawn.
Let's start off ambitious.
Alex, what's the thing we've been saying this whole series?
Happy birthday.
Go big or go home.
Right. And that is what I plan to do.
Let's get one in the bank,
as we often say in the luggage trolley-pushing game.
Yeah, you got one in the bank.
Go on!
Successful strike.
Ooh, you don't want to be using that one.
OK, that's the one.
I need a slow clap.
SLOW CLAP Mm-hm!
OK, start to speed up.
CLAP STARTS TO SPEED UP
You see, if you had clapped with a bit more passion,
that wouldn't have happened.
Right, it's gone one metre further.
Oh, you think I was being a bit cautious there, then, do you?
Well, a little bit.
One...
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
HE GRUNTS
Still, though, you can see that force.
Dara O Briain ain't pushing trolleys that far.
Oh, no, no. Don't.
Oh, do, oh, do, oh, do, oh, do.
Ooh, it hit!
The gentlest of touches.
Oh, that is a beauty.
Come on, little bit of bend.
That's it, there we go!
Argh! Come on.
Push, push, push, push, push.
Wait a minute.
WHISTLE BLOWS OK, right, well, look...
Ten seconds.
Go on.
Yes!
WHISTLE BLOWS
APPLAUSE
Munya, you are the most confident person we've had on this show,
because whatever the task is, Munya always goes,
"I'm going to be amazing at this."
And I believe him every time.
But, in fact, you were quite a show pony during that, I thought.
We had a bit of hammer, we had some discus,
we had some long jump, we had some double team.
You, know I just wanted to give you the whole damn Olympics.
We had some double team, yeah?
On the other side,
we saw a man who's very serious about trolley bowling.
You don't get to the level I'm at at trolley bowling
without taking it seriously, you know what I mean?
I mean, on your last throw, you put a bit of curve on it.
I mean, I had to. It was a very fine line.
And because every luggage hall is different.
You travel the world with these things, you know...
On the Continent, they're built for speed.
What did you say, Munya, at the beginning?
"What's my catchphrase for the series? Go big or go home."
Oh, yeah.
But when Munya asked, ""hat's my catchphrase for the series?"
you said, "Happy birthday" straight away. I said, "Happy birthday."
Straight away, no hesitation. Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
It's unusual, isn't it?
Would you like some distances?
Please. Some distances and then some sweet, sweet points.
Yes, well, I think we all saw Fern unfortunately in last place.
18.3 metres.
Two points go to Sarah for 25.4 metres.
And then we move into the Noel Edmonds zone.
The Noel Edmonds zone?
Well, I've measured the rest in Noel Edmondses.
GREG SIGHS
So Dara, 16 Noel Edmonds and one crouching Noel Edmonds.
John, 19 Noel Edmonds exactly.
Munya, 17.7 Noel Edmondses.
John Kearns wins the five points. Kearns takes it!
APPLAUSE
Over 34 metres. Amazing.
Sensational work.
Can I see a scoreboard, please?
He's still in the lead - it's John Kearns with 18 points!
APPLAUSE
Unbelievable. Unbelievable.
Right, everyone, please make your way to the stage
for the final task of the show.
APPLAUSE
Alex, who's going to read the task out, please?
Munya is going to read the task out. Munya!
So...
"One member of your team must write down ten animals in two minutes."
SARAH: So who's doing the animals?
Yeah, I know loads of animals.
He's got too much confidence for me. No, no, listen.
Can I be paired with somebody a bit meeker, please?
Team of three, who's going to be writing the animals?
I'm going to be writing the animals. And team of two?
That was an easy decision.
Right, if you can step onto the circles in front of the easels.
OK, so your two minutes to write ten animals starts...
WHISTLE BLOWS
Can we watch the way Dara's arm moves
and work out what he's writing?
Yes, you can.
Yep, and if you do do that, let me know,
because we'll go on tour and I'll make money off you.
LAUGHTER
What's he written for the first one, Fern?
I think cat.
LAUGHTER
WHISTLE BLOWS
And that's your time up. Well done.
Return to your spot. Please don't talk to your team mates.
The scoring on this task, just so you know,
the winning team will get five points, the losing team zero.
Whoa!
OK. Well, the second half of the task,
Munya's going to read that as well.
"Communicate the other teams' animals to your team members
"by saying the letter that comes before it in the alphabet
"over and over whilst doing an impression of that animal."
LAUGHTER
Look how giddy you are!
"Most correct animals named wins. You have two minutes and one pass."
OK, Dara's team, who is going to do the miming?
It's any one of you. Oh!
Oh! I think John should do that.
I'll give it a go, yeah.
Whoa, whoa, whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
They're our animals. I know all them.
LAUGHTER
What am I doing?
John, please make your way over to the other spot.
Yeah! Yeah.
John, you're miming those ten animals. Good luck.

APPLAUSE
Right, add those to the final scores and see where we are.
Come and join me.
Hi, great boy.
I'm a great boy. What happened?
Well, they both knew exactly the same amount of animals
and how to mime them. It was 7-7,
so they get five points each. Well done both teams.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
So I can give you the series scoreboard,
cos we're halfway through the series.
Oh, yes, please. From bottom to top, Munya has 75 points,
John 76, Fern 79,
Sarah on 90,
and Dara's reached triple figures with 102.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
And the final scoreboard for this episode?
The winner with 23 points is Mr John Kearns.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
John wins! All of those expensive useless things are yours.
Go and get 'em!
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
So, what have we learnt today?
We've learnt that some people are born with natural athletic ability.
Dara has his hurling skills,
Munya can target a cow through a rubbish chute,
John can hit a trolley from 19 Noel Edmonds away,
Fern can accurately throw a banana into the mouth of an idiot,
and Sarah can punch a floating baguette.
But if you've got children at home who are not naturally sporty,
just leave them to develop, and they'll find their own skills
and interests. Don't be such a competitive dad.
APPLAUSE
Well done again to today's winner, John Kearns.
