![]() ![]() It brings the child out in you, so you get to see that in other people too. It’s been really amazing to see that from the inside. There’s a lateral side, and there’s a surreal, subversive side, and there’s a really amazing neurodivergent community online who feel like it’s theirs, and it’s connected neurodivergent young people from around the world. It’s so clever, because they set the show, and they just know what they’re doing now, keeping that energy. It sounds corny, but they are really lovely guys. It’s all from Greg and Alex, it’s the synergy between them. There’s definitely a positive energy in the studio. And for comedy, you pick up on that and it can affect it. You do some jobs and you’re like… I don’t know what it is, but there’s tension, or something’s gone on, someone’s stressed and not talking to people very nicely, and stuff like that. I think that really helps to shine through, because you would think everything is like that, but it’s not. It doesn’t matter if you make the tea or you’re the director, everyone sits together, eats together, and everyone’s treated with respect. I love it when you go on a set, and there’s no hierarchy with the crew. On this, from day one doing the tasks, they were family. I can tell now, when I watch, which shows have got a nice atmosphere, and it’s so conducive to making a good show. Has Taskmaster been any different from what you expected? There were UFOs flying around her house that week, so that might have had something to do with it. But this is so lodged, I can’t.” But we think he must have dislodged it a little bit because I was at her house a while later and she got up and it fell out. And he said, “Never have I not been able to remove impacted wax. The obvious thing was that it must be impacted wax. I took her to a Harley Street ear doctor, and he said never in his career had he seen anything like it. It was driving her mad because she kept getting ear infections. She had something in her ear for two years and six months, and they didn’t know what it was. ![]() He said, “Haven’t you already done it?” He did then try to give me advice, but I looked at him and said, “I don’t need your advice.” The advice was to really think about your prize because you open the show with it. What did he say to you when you told him you were going on the show? But I have watched Taskmaster because Jon was on the second series. It’s worked so far, so I’m going to carry on like that. I find it’s better to go in not really knowing what you’re doing or what day it is. When I do jobs, I tend not to prepare, watch the show or get advice. There are certain shows that comics like, and Would I Lie To You?, Have I Got News for You and this are all up there.ĭid you ask anyone for advice when you knew you were doing it? It’s like you’ve got a stripe on your name if you do it. And then when you start seeing the people who started years after you, you’re like, “Why are they on it?” because although it has a cult following with fans, it has a cult following with comedians as well. This is series 49 or something and you think, “When?” so I’m glad to have done it.ĭo you know people who have done it before?Įvery single person. I saw a few people online have thought that, yes. But, no.Ī lot of fans predicted you would be in it this year. I’ve been around so many groups of comics and they sit and talk about their time on Taskmaster, and everyone presumed I’d done it already to be honest. ![]() And I must admit, I’ve wanted to do it for ages. ![]()
