Taskmaster - S11 E2 - The Lure Of The Treacle Puppies.

Hiya Mandy, Alex’s “Riddle” went: Riddle me this, what am I? I’m small and yet I can fly My first is in flop, but not in pizza. My second … (they might have edited out this line) The wetter I get, the more I weigh. I’m a small insect, I’m a fly. “My first is in flop, but not in pizza” refers to the letters in the word. It’s a classic style of clue for these types of riddle. The first (letter of the answer) is in the word flop but not in the word pizza. These types of riddles can use this clue style exclusively! For example My first is in riddle, but not in little. My second is in think, but not in brink. My third is in thyme, but not in time. My fourth is in mother, but not in brother. My last is in time, but not in climb. Mandy: What’s a love spoon? When I was a child in South Wales, I used to ride my bike around in the street, and I’d often see an old neighbour in his garage crafting love spoons. He did on one occasion invite me to stay while he worked at his craft, and showed me a few examples of his previous work. They’re meant to be spoons whittled and chiselled and sanded into the shape of a decorative spoon from a single piece of wood. He lovingly made them for his wife. The spoon handle is where you can see the craftsmanship. There’s often different styles of ornamentation along the handle. He chiselled out wooden chain links, and and I was very impressed by rounded wooden balls he’d chiselled into the spoon handle impossibly encased in the wooden shaft itself, rolling freely inside, obviously chiselled in place from the one wooden stick. Google tells me they’re actually Welsh love spoons, so there you go. An image search doesn’t really do the craftsmanship of my neighbour justice. Ooh, if you’re looking for some synonyms, we have pewter tankards, flagons, mugs and pitchers - and they’re all used to drink ale 🍺 Oh god, no! Please no! Don’t tell me these penguin pitchers have Argentinian heritage! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/116086228327 Cyril Sneer is a pink aardvark (from The Raccoons) https://raccoons.fandom.com/wiki/Cyril_Sneer Mandy: “But nothing’s scary with string on it” Yeah, if felt like Jamali missed one last trick at the end *without* the use of strings, a scary twist and a cliff hanger. (Real Magic!) Have you NOT seen The Shining? Sarah’s scary tricycle scene was lifted straight out of that movie. Lee provided the twist Jamali desperately needed! I never wash my towels; it would deprive our chambermaid of her job! 🤣 Mandy (eggs in hand): “THREE! Like I can’t imagine four!” Eggs stack! You’re not even trying to imagine now 😆 If you can place 3 in your hand, the 4th will cradle on top of them neatly! There’s no photo evidence of Lee with 17 eggs, but this guy did 18 on the BACK of his hand, so its possible! https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/news/2022/2/iraqi-man-balances-18-eggs-on-back-of-his-hand-breaking-record-683497 It’s wonderful to see you in better health, with that Wozniak “try-hard in a good way” commitment and enthusiasm 🤣 Thanks Mandy G

Josh Read

Speak up about what?

Mandy Cane Lane

Anthony I have no idea what you are talking about nor who you are talking to, but you need to reign it in. There are rules here and foul language and disrespect will not be tolerated

Anthony Johnson

Mandy Cane Lane

Not my favorite 😅

Anthony Johnson

You gonna speak up

Anthony Johnson

You gonna speak up

Anthony Johnson

No worries Mandy, you are the absolute best. And I love your old speed drawing and music videos on YT. You are amazing. Love you. 😊❤️

Joshyboiiiiii

Aww it's not the illness I've had it's the constant fatigue and the slightly concerning high resting heartbeat I've had recently

Mandy Cane Lane

Lol. Is it just a cold, or more serious?

Joshyboiiiiii

You not like it?

Joshyboiiiiii

It's 40:18 into the vid roughly 😅😅 it was an unfortunate pause moment. My humblest of apologies. Think I'm gonna go to the doctors cause I think something's not right

Joshyboiiiiii

Mandy I think it's just the Downstairs smart tv being a pleb, the videos worked on my phone fine

Joshyboiiiiii

Wait hang on I replied to this post? I'm so sorry I didn't mean too 😅😅 I hadn't been seen this comment, dunno what's happened there my bad 😬 but yeah england were shite

Joshyboiiiiii

She's my Aisling and rose for this series

Joshyboiiiiii

Yeah you're 30 apparently so live a lil more dangerously. Don't go too far and say cunt but fucks just about alright 😂😂

Mandy Cane Lane

That's the one! 🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

🫥

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahaha, do I? 🤔

Mandy Cane Lane

Lmao, sorry, my bad! 🤣🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

If you are interested in what they look like you can pop "jarra pinguino" into Google Images 🤪

Josh Read

We are mocking the England performance in their latest game with quotes from the IT crowd

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahaha! I wouldn't even know where to get one 🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

Ohhh nice! When I get to +5 Cool Points do I get to pick an item of Joey's clothing to come off? 🤪

Mandy Cane Lane

Huh, well this was all over the place so not sure what to say. I had no idea the links weren't working right though 😕

Mandy Cane Lane

Lmao, this was a very Miles Jupp comment 🤪🤭

Mandy Cane Lane

Lmao 🤣🤣🤣 Well I get that, but some categories don't even give room for jokes. They are just too simple/ridiculous. 🤪

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahahhaha! You are so sweet Terje! I was itching to get back, so win-win!! 🩵🩵

Mandy Cane Lane

That is a lot!! I like milk in tea, and even alone, but if I drink a lot it activates my acne 😓. And of course by activities you mean snacking in bed while watching movies 🤪

Mandy Cane Lane

Thank you so much Anthony!! 🙌🏻🤗✨️

Mandy Cane Lane

Thank you so much Stanley for all your support!! 🩵🩵

Josh Read

The answer to the riddle was fly. The "my First" means the first letter of the answer so for fly would be F. So it's saying the letter F is the word fly but not the word pizza.

Stevus

Hmm, mine does the freezy, shut down thing on Daily Motion. The Mandy has corrupted all systems! No platform is safe! Abort Mission, slug brigade! The Mandys brain power is too intense to harness for our needs. ABORT MISSION!!!

Mandy Cane Lane

Jajaja, muy tierno lo tuyo Joey!:🤣🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

Well, now I am curious as to what kind of hair you have! Personally if I go more than 4 days without washing my scalp gets itchy. 😅 But yes, everyone is different, but some people are just dirty 🤭🤪

Mandy Cane Lane

Thank you! 🩵 It feels so good to be back! Horse riding is the best thing ever! 🤪

Mandy Cane Lane

😫😖 No. I did not hear that.

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahaha, trust me, my days weren't exactly entertaining either, I am so glad to be back too! 🩵🤗🌸

Mandy Cane Lane

Thank you Martin! 🩵 Me too! 🤗

Mandy Cane Lane

I have no idea Darlin' 😅

Mandy Cane Lane

Yesss!! Thank you! 🙌🏻✨️

Mandy Cane Lane

I read this like 8 times and I still don't get it 😵‍💫

Stevus

🤣 the poor bee! 🤭😉

Mandy Cane Lane

Hahhaha, it is SO GOOD to be BACK!!! I feel so much better now 🩵✨️

Josh Read

Glad you aprove of this one 🤗

Mandy Cane Lane

Hmmm.... this seems a little suspicious.... I never wear a helmet because all my hair is usually enough. I got a bee stuck in my hair once. 1/10 experience, do not recommend 😓

Mandy Cane Lane

Love it Roman! 🩵🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

🤣🤣🤣

Mandy Cane Lane

Ohh I agree! Fresh bed sheets feel so nice! Thank you Josh 🩵. Also, that pic is much better 🤣🤪

Mandy Cane Lane

Oh no!! Food poisoning is awful. Hope yoy are better now. Also, what is that picture Josh? 😭

Mandy Cane Lane

Ouch Jeffrey 😔

Mandy Cane Lane

Joshyboiiiiii

Wowww more swearing, love it 😁 gotta swear more

Joshyboiiiiii

I STAN CHARLOTTE. NO IT'S NOT SHAUNA ITS CHARLOTTE!!!!!

Josh Read

I've not experienced any issues with anything. Well apart from patreon freezing and shutting down but that happens across all my patreon subscriptions not just Mandy's

Joshyboiiiiii

Sorry I've been away for a while so might have been an issue for a lil while but are the videos not working again but the links are? If so that's annoying 😅

Joshyboiiiiii

Not an England football fan so thankfully didn't watch it

Jonathan Davies

Petition to get Mandy to be drinking out of an Argentinian penguin tankard for the next taskmaster episode.. Sign with a like.

Jeffrey44

Okay. I haven't verified that claim but I'll allow it. He was on The One Show yesterday. He didn't give any Taskmaster tips though.

(Just) Steve

Mandy’s back and no longer sounds like Clint Eastwood after smoking 80 cigarettes! 😉 Glad you’re feeling better. 🙂 (and kudos on the AC/DC reference, you get +1 Cool Point 👍🏻)

.

I'm sorry for your loss. Move on.

Gary Tamblyn

The thing about England is, they always try to walk it in !

Tony Mingoia

What was Southgate thinking sending Mainoo on that early?

Robert Allen

He got the most points for prizes in his series though

Josh Read

Did anyone see that ludicrous display last night?

Jeffrey44

David Baddiel was rubbish at Taskmaster! He is the last person to take game play tips from.

𝑭𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆

I have a two-towel system. Towel 1 is for my legs, back, etc., and gets washed every few uses. Towel 2 (a smaller towel) is for bits and bobs and gets washed after every use. I also have a drying routine. This whole system has served me well all my life. Thanks, Mandy. 🤗🤗

Jeffrey44

Food poisoning on the day of an England soccer match so you have to stay at home. What are the chances?

Robert Allen

I think David Baddiel said something on the TM podcast about how the prize task is really more about telling a joke than bringing in something actually desirable.

Terje Flågan

Hello our dearest Mandy! I'm sooooo happy to see you again! Almost as happy as you are of being back it seems - almost :) This period that you were away I have done my best with trying to supress my feelings, and I have almost had it under control. Apart for some twitches in my right eyebrow, and a shaking left leg every morning when waking up. It got gradually worse day by day, but this morning it was suddenly gone. And I thought: "could this be the day? Really?" Yes yes! It was! Then I understood how much I've missed you. 💜 If somebody based on this thinks this "relationship" isn't healthy for me, I highly disagree BTW. Oh, and: Towels about twice a week. Sheets - every 1-2 weeks. :)

Ana and Shawn

I change our sheets every week, some more depending on the "activities" that happen. Shawn drinks a ton of milk as well , pretty close to Mike's levels

Anthony Johnson

Hey! 😊 So glad to see you are back at 100%… and I love the AC/DC reference!

.

🤗Always fun. So great to have you back and see you are well, thanks, Mandy. 😁😁

Feathers McGraw

Who back?👀

Feathers McGraw

¡Guau! ¿Dónde puedo conseguir una de estas tazas de pingüinos? ¡Suena INCREÍBLE! Le compraré un gorrito, una bufanda y unas gafas diminutas, ¡y lo llamaré Mugsy!🐧

𝑭𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆

One of the men is from Bolton. Say no more.😄

Jeffrey44

No joke. It's a serious issue. "It comes as a video was released by protest group Youth Demand, which appeared to show a young man entering the prime minister's property and defecating in a lake." - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cgrrlep3l0ro

DahDutcher

When it comes to hair, it's generally adviced once a week, but there is no definitive answer. I wash my hair like once a month, and my hairdresser always gushes over the quality of my hair, while my sister washes three times a week and constantly has dandruf etc. It really depends on so many things, that there is no right answer at all. Just as long as you don't go long enough for your scalp to become irritated I believe.

𝑭𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆

*Puts Mars Bar back in the fridge*. I expected a joke. 😐

DriveIn

Yay! It's great to see you back in the saddle again Mandy! 😁

Joshyboiiiiii

Yeah wayyyy too warm and got food poisoning

Jeffrey44

Did you hear that a young man went to our Prime Minister's house and did a poo in his private lake? Here is a video of it... https://youtu.be/Dp6H7UoyHs8?si=1BTjI3gbYk5Su-ox (WARNING: May contain scenes of a young man pooing in a lake.)

Jeffrey44

Alright Josh? Isn't it warm? How are things with you?

Jeffrey44

I DO like Car Share but I always get Mandy Cane Lane confused with Taffe316. Which one is this?

JokerDanny

It's been so BORING without your reactions Mandy, missed your fiery haired happy self. I'm so glad your back and healthy again. 😄🎉

AWR93

I thought you would notice Jeffrey especially after the lack of car share

Jeffrey44

The UK government spent an absolute fortune on TV and other advertising during COVID-19. They also directly funded at least one series of Taskmaster.

Marvelous Martin

I'm glad that you're back and feeling much better. :-)

𝑭𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆

This was filmed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Nobody was allowed out to the shops, so they didn't bother advertising anything.

Jeffrey44

Excuse me. Where are the ad breaks (or commercial breaks as an American would say)?

Josh Read

https://youtu.be/CMbI7DmLCNI?si=39ziYU5YV3RSeMKY

Josh Read

With the riddle the my first means the first letter of the word is in the word fly but not in the word pizza

𝑭𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆

No brainwaves around here, you will starve.

Stevus

It's a long way to the shop if you want to feast on the brainwaves of the shopkeeper.

.

YASSS! You're back!! 😀 ... and balance has been restored to the world... I mean.. Oh, you're back? Have you been somewhere? I hardly even noticed. 👀

Stevus

We have a task for you, human Mandy. Just stand around not wearing a helmet.

Roman 'Arathir' Mikala

🎵 Guess who's back, back again Mandy's back, tell a friend Guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back... 🎵

𝑭𝒆𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒚 𝑺𝒕𝒆𝒗𝒆

Welcome back, Mandy. Straight back to it, rockin' to AC/DC. 🎶It's a long way to the shop if you want a sausage roll🎶. 🤗🤗

Josh Read

People all over the world rejoice on this beautiful day. Mandy is better again. 🥹 yes your voice sounds like it's back to normal again 🤗🤗🤗 towels and bedding should be washed once a week. The is nothing better than getting into bed in fresh clean bedding 🛌 😌

Joshyboiiiiii

3rd no suey

Jeffrey44

Has she been away?

AWR93

Welcome back Mandy 🥳🥂

Jeffrey44

First!
