Camber Sands, famous for it's "carnage" at the annual "caravan club" meet up !! ๐๐๐

People with bombs in fake giant rocks don't tend to ask permission...We live in a very polite society.

Waffle House just put on Facebook that their Duel Waffle Maker was stolen from their Florida branch last week?
Craig Wright
I always thought of Lee Mack as a poor manโs Skinner.
Keith Pratt
Gagtag.

What was the name of the panel show that Frank Skinner was on early in his TV career? Bob Monkhouse was on it too.
SquaredSpekz
They call them comforters (I know).
Sam
Do you guys not have duvet covers in America? :o
Paul Liversage
Frank has bought a lot of stuff worn by Elvis.. most turn out to be fake...guessing the ring is 1
Paul Liversage
Not a full member but has filled in a few times
Simon Charlie
Bit late on this, but Fred the Swede is in Alex Hornes's band. I believe he's a drummer. He appears a few times on Taskmaster (in, as you can imagine, increasingly strange situations) and has become a bit of a fan favourite.
Garry Allen
Itโs worth mentioning that Frank Skinner is worth an absolute mint. Many times a millionaire. He would be worth even more but think he lost about ยฃ10,000,000 in an insurance scam.
Craig Brown
Wait? You don't have duvet covers in America? What do you put on your duvets?
Kentonio
Can't wait for you guys to reach the Bob Mortimer season. ๐

Mike lookin like a snooker player here!

Jess, serious comment here. PLEASE buy a second hard drive and copy everything across. They are far more delicate than people realise. I used to work in a computer repair business, and we had many clients come in with faulty external hard drives. They were panicked as it was the only place they had copies of the pictures and videos of family members they'd lost. Sometimes it was an easy and cheap fix that I could sort out. Sometimes it would require professional data recovery. While you may be running a successful Patreon, sometimes they break in ways which mean you lose data, no matter how much money you throw at the issue. Those smaller laptop hard drives are admittedly even more susceptible to damage, too. Sometimes I'd convince clients to buy a second or help them back things up to online storage platforms if they were comfortable. Either way, the $60(?) it costs to duplicate them onto another drive is absolute peanuts compared to the hundreds of pounds we saw quoted for professional data recovery without guarantee.

Fun fact - Frank has actually cashed in that check as part of the joke. He obviously then returned the money to Josh.

They don't really use duvets. They tend to use sheets, and then quilts for when it's colder. But the quilts are more like blankets you'd hang over the sofa, and are just machine washable.

Saw Tim Key live last night and he called my mate a cunt, it was glorious.

Driving 2.3 miles in 25 mins is quite normal in London
Matthew
Really? Nobody else commenting on closet's, "struggling with the thickness of the ring"? Jess, watch this one, he knows what he's doing, y'all... โ๏ธโค๏ธ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ๐ฌ๐ง๐ณ๏ธโ๐ xxx

Mike if you can't handle the heat don't play big boys' games or girl's in this case. Pay up.
Dan G, Leicester
Heโs said before he realised he had a problem when he switched from having sherry for breakfast to Pernod.
Fordy7169
Yes 2 good shows there, plenty of episodes too. QI is arguably more broadly educational than actual school, LOL
Kenneth Swan
And you have two backups of that drive, Jess, right..?
RegenerationNationTV
It looks like it's 6 episodes, but still not a bad idea
Stu 79
Hey Mike and Jess. As the first 2 seasons of taskmaster are only 5 episodes each, would it be better to complete seasons 1 and 2 before switching over to wilty which is has 13 episodes in season 1? Waiting 13 weeks seems a long time to wait for more taskmaster reactions ๐
Julian
You would enjoy episodes of Room 101, presented by Frank Skinner. Youโd also love QI for the comedy/education combo. Itโs worth thinking about once the Cunk/Ali G stuff runs out.
Julian
Probably too hot to use duvets all year round in most parts of the US
Kieran B
Camber Sands where Roisin wanted to send the boulder was where the Inbetweeners went to caravan clubโฆ
Michael
The moment where we all realised another area where America is a bizarre country they don't have duvet covers?!
Paul John Jeffs
Wait, what? People don't use a duvet cover in the US?
Jay Lo
Nope they use bed sheets. Like did many many years ago
Mark Rudd
Camber sands is were Jay goes to the caravan club haha
Emily
That blushing challenge made me so uncomfortable ๐คฃ
steven bell
wait do Americans not have duvet covers ? ( so easy to just rip that off wash it and put another on .
steven bell
its crazy to watch this after just watching s19. and just how raw the show looks and how its changed to newer ones :). ( for the better) for example I feel Alex gets more confidence and they lean more into
DDDPPP
I'd love to see him on telly more often, he's so effortlessly funny and always a joy when he pops up.
Tom
Frank Skinner is my favourite comedian. He has a very dry sense of humour and doesnโt go out to shock his audience. Was an alcoholic until he was 30, discovered comedy and turned his life around. Co-wrote and performed Three Lions, a song about the England football teamโs decades of failure and the unflagging optimism of its fans. Itโs become the very definition of an anthem in football stadiums when England are in danger of actually winning a tournament. The video, Three Lions by Baddiel & Skinner and The Lightning Seeds, is well worth a reaction, if only to wind up all the Scots, Welsh and Irish Patreons who loathe it.
Gem Lou
Josh hosts a podcast called Parenting Hell alongside another comedian Rob Beckett. Listening to him struggling with parenting is what you'd probably imagine it's like with what you've seen of him
Ste Rawlings
Tim Key co-wrote and starred in a beautiful film this year called The Ballad of Wallis Island. It would be amazing to see you guys react to it, but if not, you should definitely give it a watch in your own time.

Standard Swede

I guess Mo is to blame for the loss of the waffle maker too? ;)
Michael
I did the same thing when I was in London few years ago, peeked through the fence at the back
Liv
Mike: 'I'm never taking these [little denim] shorts off' And the never-nude lifestyle begins.
ElvisLee
Josh blew his lead, but not a Swede.
Josh Read
I would have to say that Jess' hard drive is better than Mike's package. Having a double waffle maker is surly compensating for something. Yes I've seen blank cheque, there's a very inappropriate kissing scene with a child and a grown woman. That certainly wouldn't happen today. I've seen the 3 human centipede films too ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ฉ ๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คฎ๐คฎ
Andy Oliver
They should have brought back the Swedish man task for season 7 and Phil Wang in his Bruce Lee outfit would've crushed it
Scott
Is it a bit sad that I took a long walk along the Thames last time I visited London just to peek at the taskmaster house, and walked through the park where these bandstands are? Maybe so, but I loved it
Tim
Frank is an absolute legend of UK comedy - one of the quickest wits in the business.
Robert Lees
They might use a comforter, since theyโre more popular over there. Basically a duvet just with the cover stitched on.
Col Boro
I think depends on the state how hot it is there maybe a thin sheet would be enough in florida lol
Patrick Coyle
"DRIVE THE VANNUH!"
Christian Rolfe
It gets better as you go on
Emma Edwards
Donโt your duvets have covers?! ๐คฏ
Col Boro
Jess laughed a little too much at mikes package lol
Rachie
Frank Skinner is a legend. An ex-alcoholic who turned his life around.
na plz
Please say you have a backup of the external HDD ๐ญ I do really enjoy the extra interactions you guys have with the shows, long may it continue
JEFF!?!
How do you not have duvet covers??? So every time you change your bedding, you wash your entire duvet???
Steve Cox
Josh got the boulder about 20 miles from the Taskmaster House.
David Smith
Josh moved the boulder 18 miles.
Athan Immortal
Find yourself a girl that laughs like Jess getting a giggles at Mike's package. Relationship goals right there. This is why I love couple reactors so much, they're way more in tune.
Athan Immortal
These 7am uploads are really saving me some mornings :)
Clive Parry
Jess, donโt laugh at his package. Mikes got denim shorts on two sizes too small. Itโs a show stopper as he walks down the street ๐โค๏ธ
