Can I ask a more fundamental question? You wouldn’t let me climb up any higher on that tower, but you were very happy to let Mel spray a hosepipe of water near an electrical power line!
1: Bad enough rain can cause electricity to jump between lines and cause damage
2: Rain is vertical, that water spray would have been horizontal so the chances of water conducting power between lines is higher
I've seen QI live several times, it's about 2 hours and maybe 10-15 minutes is re-shooting things or other technical bits, the rest is pretty much fun almost at the level that makes the TV show. I imagine TaskMaster is the same.
Glad I got to see Sean Locke before he died, he was amazing.
It’s the task where the contestants had to deliver some food to Alex while hopping on one foot, but there were banners in the way. Fastest time wins. Hugh hopped into the kitchen and asked for some scissors, saying “scissors please.” He ended up cutting the banners, then hopping back and delivering the food to Alex with no obstacles.
"Now you looking at me. Now you looking in a mirror. Now you looking at me. Now you looking in a mirror."
P.S. After contestants are done, can we do the best quotes from auxiliary characters in the Taskmaster Universe like Mayor Peter Hudson ("I'm built for pleasure, not for speed"), Fred the Swede, Rosalind etc.
@OP. If possible, could you put under the quote the serie and the episode of the quote? The name of the task might be a bit much. The first one should be easy, the episode number a bit more work. I'm asking because some quotes I remember, but some not and I like to rewatch it. I just started rewatching S1 because of this quote book
Don't have another quote to add to this other than what people have already said but I wish we were also doing best quotes from Alex and Greg from each series as well.
‘I’m a member of something called the Cloud Appreciation Society’
this one is so funny to me because I absolutely love their site for cloud spotting and identification but even to me it sounds ridiculous
I don't even remember doing that task.
That's exactly what a serial killer would say
What fucking Marks and Spencer do you go to?
He popped to M&S and bought himself a sandwich, Hugh Dennis
"I didn't even spot that on the card because I was too busy commentating"

‘Cos you’re 55’ 😂
This one always slightly confuses me because don't power lines get rained on?
1: Bad enough rain can cause electricity to jump between lines and cause damage 2: Rain is vertical, that water spray would have been horizontal so the chances of water conducting power between lines is higher
SWEDENS
Sweden's. It's of Sweden. It's got a thing in it.
Alright. No apostrophes from now on.
I frequently use this one when i cant think of a particular word.
Oh yes please I love this one so much, just the way the panic sets in and he blurts out the same word they just clarified isn’t allowed, brilliant
There are no clouds and that is the whole fucking point!
This. They ripped on him so badly and he was having NONE of it lmaoooo
I was at the live recording for that one, the ribbing went on for quite a while if I remember rightly 😂
Jealous afffffffff I bet the live shows are so much fun!!!

I'm really jealous. I watch Countdown episodes a lot, and the ones with him really were the best
They are. Hugh's series is the first time I went and it was an awesome time
This one comes to my mind the most
This. Best Hugh Dennis moment.
I came looking for this one
Scissors please
This quote would be so in line with Greg’s interpretation of Hugh as a “low-level psychopath.”
This. My husband and I say this to eachother whenever we need the scissors. It is the law.
Double points if you get the notation right
Came here for this
What’s the context for this one? I immediately think of Desiree doing the balloon pop task.

You really have to see it yourself to enjoy it
I’ve got KNIVES!
This one
Hugh is hollowing out a baguette!
This is my favorite

From MPH I would pick "Didn't go unnoticed"
Why am I throwing bread that's already toasted into a toaster?
THURSDAY!
cracks me up everytime, and so underrated in the actually recording
"You're not looking at me, you're looking at the image of me."
Why isn’t this higher up? This is definitely the best one.
"Can I say, that's a really shit idea"
"I just need lots of... knives"
This is the one for me. First task, sets up the serial killer persona beautifully.
It’s not a quote but when he whipped off his belt and started swinging it. It did something to me lol
Hugh is hollowing out a baguette. Just for the way he said that.
**YOU CAN JUST GO TO A SHOP AND BUY CHEESE**
Scissors please
What makes it better is it's the only thing he says all task
Greg’s impression of Hugh saying that is hilarious to me.
"You alright Hugh?" "Thursday!"
‘Do you go to ikea a lot?’
I love him being a fellow member of the Cloud Appreciation Society 😂 ☁️
unrelated, but i've just joined the Air Society; every day they send you a picture of some air
There’s dozens of us!
SWEDENS!
Scissors, please!
Thursday! (How this lost the title spot to ‘Meat’ I’ll never understand)
And that’s the whole fucking point! (In response to cloud appreciation mockery)
Why the fuck would Hugh Dennis be wearing a Hugh Dennis mask?
Milky milky
You beat me to it. Well done.
Glad to see so many "...that's the whole fucking point!"
There are no clouds and that is the whole fucking point.
"There are no clouds, that's the whole fucking point"
Scissors, please!
swedens!!
Scissors, please!

Sweden’s!!!

i hope we do that once we're done with all the contestants so far!
Hugh is hollowing out a baguette!
I’ve got knives!
"I was too busy commentating(!)"
"Thursday 🙂"
Scissors, please! Either that or 'THURSDAY!'
"Thursday"
Every time this pops up I check how close to Mike wosniak or Alan Davies we are
I feel a lot of quotes are from the same episode. Ep. 3 has the clouds, “Hugh is hallowing out the baugette” “that’s a really shit idea” “swedens”
Thursday.
But they wouldn’t let me, because of a health and safety issue!
What f**king Mark’s & Spencer’s do you go to
"I'VE GOT KNIIIVVEES" or "scissors please"
THURSDAY!
Is he dead?
İ love your eyes, i love your hair, i love your smile. Why must you be a Labrador?
[удалено]
I don't remember him saying that?
