Transcript

00:07A study in human behavior that has Charles Darwin turning in his grave.

00:12How can five comedians achieve so much in one field,

00:15and yet prove to have not even basic cognitive function in another?

00:18Will we see them physically change during the process?

00:21Joel Dommert with a beak?

00:22Amy Glutter with one giant hand?

00:25Nunciani, Iannucci and Paige, flying a room like bats?

00:28Oh, Dr. Frankenstein, what have we done?

00:38Please welcome...

00:40Amy Glutter!

00:43Armando Iannucci!

00:46Charlotte Paige!

00:48Joel Dommert!

00:50And Karol Nanjani!

00:54And next to me, a man who told me in private

00:57he thinks that all the lycra-clad cyclists in his town

01:00are, to a man, sexual predators.

01:06Yes, little Alex Hall!

01:10I'm Matthew. Hello.

01:12Hi, what have you got for the opening chat?

01:14I'm so exhausted, Greg. Oh, God.

01:17So tired, I'm trying to break into the world of desserts,

01:20and, er, you know hundreds and thousands?

01:22Oh, God.

01:23Yeah.

01:24Well, I've tried to get my own version of them.

01:26I've got something called ones and tens.

01:28So...

01:29You get...

01:30You get up to ten in a...

01:31in a jar.

01:34No-one's buying them.

01:35Carve run out of things.

01:40OK, let's get on with the prize task, please.

01:42Okey-dokey, of course.

01:44And this time, they've been told by you

01:46to bring in their most embarrassing possession.

01:49Ooh.

01:49Yeah, mine is my sports car.

01:51It's so fast!

01:55You're going to reward five points

01:56to the person you think has brought in

01:57their most embarrassing possession,

01:59and then all five possessions

02:00will go home with the winner,

02:01which doesn't sound like a great prize, as usual.

02:03Hey, Shana, what have you brought?

02:05I've brought in my snake plunger

02:07to unblock a toilet.

02:09When I first met my husband,

02:11I went to Bradford

02:12to meet my mother-in-law for the first time.

02:15I spent the day there,

02:17and I didn't go to the toilet at all,

02:18because I wanted to be so perfect

02:19that I didn't poo.

02:20So I saved it until the evening.

02:23Everyone was in bed,

02:24I went to the toilet,

02:24but there was a carpet in the toilet,

02:26no lock on the door.

02:27I went in,

02:28and I went to the toilet,

02:29I flushed the chain,

02:30and there was, like, loads of...

02:32loads, loads of poo

02:33and loads of toilet paper.

02:34I flushed the chain,

02:35the whole thing rose up to the top.

02:37I'd never experienced that before,

02:38so I didn't know

02:39that you should wait

02:40for it to go back down.

02:41It was all the way up the top,

02:42and I just thought,

02:43oh, well, just flush it again.

02:44I flushed it again.

02:46Jesus Christ, it was awful.

02:47It just continued.

02:49It went over the toilet seat,

02:51poo, paper, everything,

02:53and water just flowing

02:54and flowing onto the carpet.

02:57Apparently, I was screaming,

02:58and I was screaming,

02:59because she just came in through the door,

03:00and then she went,

03:01and she had a snake plunger,

03:03and she went,

03:04because they'd had problems

03:04with the toilet,

03:05and she was doing it

03:06with the snake plunger.

03:07The dad came in,

03:07everybody was there,

03:08I was crying,

03:10and then she gave me

03:12the snake plunger afterwards

03:13and said, here you go,

03:14you can have it,

03:14and it has been used since.

03:15Oh.

03:17Yeah.

03:21Thank you for telling us

03:23about your horrific shit story.

03:26Joel.

03:27I have brought in my teenage diary

03:30from 2004.

03:32Ooh.

03:32Here it is.

03:33Alex, I think you've read

03:34some bits from it,

03:35I believe.

03:35I've enjoyed a lot of it.

03:36Yeah.

03:37I've picked three dates

03:38that are my favourite.

03:39You can have the 21st of June,

03:4125th of June,

03:42or the 23rd of July, Greg.

03:43What would you like?

03:43One that he slightly winced at

03:45was the last one.

03:47Watched Royal Variety

03:48performance tonight

03:49with, let's call her Jessica.

03:51She's so grumpy sometimes,

03:53laughed so much

03:53at some comedian.

03:55Would love to have the confidence

03:56to be a comedian.

03:57This pen is great.

04:02Roarcoast, isn't it?

04:04Ironically, Joel,

04:04it's not that embarrassing.

04:06You might score badly on this

04:07because I just find it so adorable.

04:09It's a bit embarrassing though,

04:10isn't it?

04:11Oh, yeah, it is.

04:13Kamal.

04:14So when I was about eight,

04:15I got a blanket

04:16that I really, really loved,

04:18exactly what I wanted

04:19and I would sleep with it

04:20on my face.

04:21And when I was moving

04:22to America at 18,

04:23I said,

04:24I should bring this with me.

04:26It's here.

04:27Oh.

04:28This is,

04:29this is Poppo.

04:31Wow.

04:32And Poppo was...

04:32I was going to say,

04:33it's not embarrassing,

04:33it's adorable,

04:34and then suddenly

04:35it has a name.

04:37She.

04:38Oh.

04:39Oh.

04:40Oh.

04:41And I still sleep with it.

04:42So I need to win this episode

04:44so I can have Poppo.

04:45Yeah.

04:45What happens

04:45if someone takes Poppo away?

04:47I don't think

04:47they're going to want

04:48to keep Poppo.

04:49Of course they're not.

04:50I imagine,

04:51forgive me,

04:51Poppo stinks.

04:55Amy Gledhill,

04:56what is your embarrassing possession?

04:58I've brought in

04:59a straw,

05:00a drinking straw

05:01that I've kept

05:02from a date

05:03I went on.

05:04Oh.

05:04This is the drinking straw?

05:06I've kept it for

05:0720 more,

05:09so many years.

05:10And it was a special date

05:11you went on?

05:12It was the first date

05:14that I went on

05:15with a boy

05:16that I lost my virginity to.

05:18you.

05:18OK.

05:20His name,

05:21and this is his own,

05:23this is what he calls himself,

05:25Dirty Joe.

05:26Oh.

05:29Oh, this is a really weird opening round.

05:33Armando.

05:33It's my grade one piano music certificate

05:36but please let me carry on.

05:38Shall I show it now?

05:38This is the certificate.

05:39This is what Armando brought on.

05:40But I did this aged 40.

05:48I couldn't play music

05:49but I love music

05:49and my wife,

05:50and my 40th birthday

05:51brought me a piano,

05:51one of those electric

05:52that sounds like a, you know.

05:54And I thought,

05:54to make myself learn,

05:56I'll sit grade one.

05:57But nobody told me

05:58that you were sitting

05:59at someone's house.

06:00And I turned up

06:01and there was a little

06:02small kitchen area

06:03at the back

06:04where I sat

06:04with the other candidates.

06:05who were all five and six.

06:09And then I was taken in

06:11and nobody told me

06:12that I would have to play

06:13on a big grand piano

06:15but the keys

06:15are completely different,

06:16a different way.

06:17And I thought,

06:18I could stop now.

06:19I could just leave the house.

06:21You know,

06:21I've won a BAFTA.

06:22That's enough.

06:23I don't...

06:23No, I'm going to carry on.

06:25And I carried on.

06:26I mean, it was like, awful.

06:28I passed by one

06:29and the comment at the bottom

06:31is the candidate

06:32was able to hold the melody

06:33at the second attempt.

06:35LAUGHTER

06:39APPLAUSE

06:39That's all right.

06:41That's all right.

06:43Well, his most embarrassing

06:45possession wins.

06:46So I guess, least embarrassing,

06:47one point.

06:48All of them were brilliant.

06:49I'm giving Armando and Amy

06:50two points.

06:51OK.

06:52I'm giving three points

06:53to Kamal

06:55because I find his little rag adorable.

06:57I'm going to give four points to Joel.

07:00But I think I'm going to give

07:01Joanna Page five points.

07:02Four-five points to Joel.

07:03Thank you, everyone.

07:05APPLAUSE

07:07Can I have a challenging task, please, Alex?

07:11Yes, you can,

07:12because you've been such a brave boy, Greg.

07:14I'm going to turn the camera off.

07:23BELL RINGS

07:25Hello.

07:26BELL RINGS

07:27Hello.

07:41BELL RINGS

07:44Oh, my God.

07:45BELL RINGS

07:45Oh, my God.

07:47BELL RINGS

07:48Oh, my God.

07:49BELL RINGS

07:50Oh, my God.

07:52BELL RINGS

07:52Oh, my God.

07:56Right.

07:56Mmm.

07:57Be brave.

07:58Bravest win.

08:01Your time starts now.

08:03Is there a train station there?

08:06BELL RINGS

08:08Are you scared of anything?

08:11Uh...

08:13Unnecessary compromise.

08:16What does Greg find you scary?

08:18He's not scared of anything.

08:20Is he scared of, like, crisps?

08:23No, I think he's definitely not.

08:25That's really...

08:25That's a real joke.

08:27Because I could be so brave with crisps.

08:29My first thought is a spider.

08:31Because I would take a lot of bravery

08:32and I'm not prepared to go there.

08:34I can't do anything with a spider.

08:35I don't like heights.

08:36God, I don't like worms at all.

08:37I don't like singing in front of people.

08:39I don't like creepy crawlies.

08:40I really don't like doing karaoke.

08:42People are scared of public speaking.

08:44That's the number one fear.

08:46All right.

08:47OK.

08:48I'll think of something.

08:49OK.

08:50Do you want us to go or are you going to go?

08:51I mean, is it an option that you guys all leave?

08:54If you could take all your gear

08:57and get the fuck out.

09:03Joanna was the only one we scared with the lion's head.

09:06Mmm.

09:07Yes, I do feel bad that she is the most scarable.

09:10But also, it was funny, wasn't it?

09:11It was funny.

09:13Who shall we see first?

09:14Well, we're going to start with all of the J's.

09:17Joanna, Joel, and that's all of the J's.

09:21Hello.

09:22Hello.

09:22It is quite high.

09:23OK.

09:27OK.

09:27I'll go like that to brace myself.

09:29Yeah.

09:30OK.

09:31So I'm scared of spiders.

09:34Genuine fear of spiders.

09:35Mm-hmm.

09:36The bravest thing I could do is have a spider on my face.

09:42On your face.

09:43Well, I've got three spiders for you.

09:44On your face.

09:45Ooh.

09:46We'll start with spider number one.

09:47We'll move up in size.

09:50I'm going to start singing, OK?

09:52OK.

09:52I'll get my creepy crawly ready.

09:54Oh, God.

09:54I don't like this.

09:55I just saw something, right?

09:57OK.

09:57Oh, God.

09:58I don't like it.

09:58I can see what it is.

09:59I'm going to be a real brave boy.

10:06Don't need to look at it.

10:07It's so lurky.

10:08Oh, my God.

10:09He's got a lurky.

10:10OK, yeah, yeah, just right.

10:11Go for now.

10:12Pour the spider onto your face.

10:14Here it comes.

10:17OK, just right.

10:18Is it like that?

10:19It's on the back of your head.

10:21Yeah.

10:21OK.

10:22OK.

10:23OK.

10:33I'm so brave.

10:34Now, this guy is smaller but more powerful.

10:39Who are you?

10:39There he is.

10:40One on the chest.

10:45Up your eyes.

10:47What's on your eyebrow now?

10:49He's nibbling your eyebrow.

10:54OK.

10:55Let's go.

10:56My name is Jo and I don't like red worms.

10:59Oh, my God.

11:00Oh, God, I don't like it.

11:01But I'm prepared to go there if it is on my terms.

11:05Oh, God, I don't like it.

11:06I'm 48.

11:07I'm doing this for my kids.

11:10Oh, my God.

11:12Oh, my God, I don't like it.

11:14Oh, my God, I'm so sorry.

11:15You all right?

11:15That's it.

11:16It's forward life.

11:18You don't want to do it?

11:18I don't like it.

11:19Put it away.

11:20I'll put it back.

11:21Oh, God, let me see what it looks like.

11:23I can't do it.

11:25I can't do it.

11:26I can't do it.

11:28I can't do it.

11:32You all right in there?

11:34We're OK, thank you.

11:35Yeah, we're all right.

11:38I can't do it.

11:45I can't do it now.

11:46So, Joanna's attempt at being brave resulted in a golfer, thinking that Alex had murdered her.

11:52LAUGHTER

11:53I love that also, if someone thinks that someone's being murdered across a hedge,

11:58all you've got to do is go, yeah, yeah, it's fine.

12:00Yeah, yeah, yeah.

12:02I'm just here.

12:03On that note, no spiders were harmless at all.

12:05They were just from the garden, they went back to the garden, everything's fine.

12:08Yes. Joanna had worms in her...

12:10It was two worms. I don't mind worms if I can look at them,

12:14and it's under my terms.

12:16I don't think you were very brave, because you bailed.

12:18The thing is, being brave isn't about always succeeding.

12:22Being brave is about having a go.

12:24And there's nothing wrong with failing.

12:26I mean, being brave...

12:27Oh, fuck off.

12:30You've come to the wrong place.

12:33Being brave is about trying.

12:35I'm not fucking Oprah.

12:36I'll tell you what scares me,

12:39seeing a man in his 40s call himself a real brave boy.

12:44I was scared, because I've never had a spider on my face before.

12:47It was a brave start, but that was a very brave response.

12:50You're a very brave boy.

12:52In your 40s.

12:53OK, who's next?

12:54Next, she's got a stellar middle name.

12:57Yes, it's Amy Stella Gledhill.

12:59I'm going to be brave, Alex.

13:02I'm going to sing earnestly a song I've written,

13:05that's also confessions of things that I have done in my life

13:10that I feel embarrassed about.

13:12Oh, well, this sounds dreadful.

13:14Yeah.

13:16Good luck.

13:17I once thought I saw a ghost.

13:20But it was a mouse in a carrier bag.

13:23I once weed myself at the coast.

13:26I was sick in my friend's bum bag.

13:28Of these things I am ashamed.

13:31Singing of them makes me brave.

13:34But the thing that scares me most

13:36is the ocean deep and dangerous.

13:39Water wet and water cold.

13:42To face these fears I must be bold.

13:45CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

14:00Oh!

14:04Oh!

14:05Oh!

14:05This is potentially your finest hour.

14:07Yes!

14:07All true.

14:09You throw up in a friend's bum bag?

14:11Yeah.

14:11On a bus to University in Leeds,

14:13we'd been out the night before,

14:15and I'd filled up, you know,

14:16a Subway carrier bag,

14:18like the long thin ones.

14:19Bleh!

14:19That I'd done,

14:20and then I was like,

14:20there's more, there's more!

14:21And she was like,

14:22Bleh!

14:22And I was like,

14:23Bleh!

14:26Are you scared of water?

14:27I'm scared of cold water,

14:29because I feel like,

14:30what if it makes your heart stop?

14:31Oh.

14:32And you took a bucket in the face?

14:33Yes, she did tell me.

14:34She did tell me that,

14:35but I was slightly ashamed

14:36that I was smiling while doing this.

14:41if he can stare into the camera,

14:43as it moves towards him slowly,

14:44as a tribute to his wife.

14:46I'm sorry.

14:56I'm sorry.

15:03Finished?

15:04We'll see you in a minute.

15:13Hello!

15:14Welcome back to the start of part two,

15:16where our cast are being brave,

15:18but also surprisingly nimble.

15:20Watch this.

15:20It is Armando Iannucci's turn.

15:23Hello.

15:24Thank you for coming.

15:26I hate dancing.

15:27I can't dance.

15:28My worst fear of being made to dance in public,

15:32which is what I'm going to do now,

15:34knowing that this will also go out on national television.

15:38Right, hit it.

15:39Whoa!

15:44Whoa!

15:46Holla!

15:49.

15:50Whoo!

15:55.

15:56.

15:58MUSIC CONTINUES

16:08CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

16:13Putty!

16:14LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

16:18Right, yeah.

16:23Fine, my feeling is you genuinely are horrified by that.

16:26I'm horrified, and I've hated it, always hated it when, like, at weddings,

16:30when somebody goes, come and do a dance, come on!

16:32And I go, no, I hate that. No, come on!

16:34And I resolved when I hit 60, which I did last year,

16:37that if that happens again, I will just tell them not to touch me

16:39and I will phone the police.

16:42LAUGHTER

16:44Any wedding I'm at, I'm just going to say to the bride's mother,

16:48fuck off!

16:50LAUGHTER

16:52Who's next? It's Kamail Nanjian.

16:55Emmanuel, thank you so much for picking me to be your best man.

16:59Giving a best man speech at a wedding, that's people's number one fear,

17:03so that's pretty brave of me to do that.

17:05Uh, but there's something I need to tell you.

17:08I'm having sex with the bride.

17:11LAUGHTER

17:12Admitting you're fucking the bride the day of her wedding,

17:14that's pretty brave.

17:16But Greg, you may be thinking,

17:18you're a stand-up comedian, public speaking,

17:20it's not really that brave.

17:21Well, I'm about to do something

17:23that's the bravest thing I've ever done.

17:25This is for real.

17:27This is my computer,

17:28and I'm going to let Alex look at my internet history.

17:32He can look at whatever he wants,

17:33he can go wherever he wants.

17:35I'm genuinely shaking.

17:36And you haven't deleted your history?

17:37I swear I've not deleted anything.

17:39Why not?

17:41OK, you're going to most viewed.

17:43This is number three.

17:46Well, it's been a stressful month, Alex.

17:48You're pretty keen that it's HD.

17:49Well, I like...

17:50I like to make out everything.

17:52It's high-definition.

17:54Premature women.

17:56LAUGHTER

17:56Last seven days.

17:59Well, last seven days,

18:00I've been in a hotel room with my wife,

18:01so it's actually fairly...

18:04Didn't stop you.

18:05LAUGHTER

18:06Still been Wordle.

18:08LAUGHTER

18:09You Googled yourself a lot.

18:12For now,

18:13Ghostbusters,

18:13Watch Porn,

18:14Blue Sky.

18:15Oh!

18:16LAUGHTER

18:18Oh, my God!

18:19APPLAUSE

18:20Oh, my God!

18:22APPLAUSE

18:23So the whole wedding thing was the red herring?

18:26Yeah.

18:27I'm genuinely speechless.

18:29LAUGHTER

18:29I was shocked enough that you're still doing Wordle.

18:33And then, what was the order?

18:34It was...

18:35Porn...

18:36Yeah.

18:36And self-googling.

18:37Porn self-googling?

18:39Cricket stats.

18:40Right.

18:41That's why his arms are so big!

18:45LAUGHTER

18:47Porn!

18:48Porn!

18:49It was all real.

18:50I didn't delete anything.

18:51I cannot believe I did that.

18:53Do you have to put that in the show?

18:56Yeah, yeah.

18:57Oh, yeah!

18:59I'm looking after score.

19:00I feel like I've been a bit harsh on you, Joanna.

19:02Mm-hm.

19:02Because I do think, Louie, you were very brave up to a point.

19:04Joanna, two points.

19:06Amy can have three points.

19:07Joel can have four points.

19:09Armando can also have four points, because I believe that he hates dancing and he looked uncomfortable.

19:14This is true.

19:14But I saw that man shaking like a leaf.

19:17Kamel gets five points.

19:18There we go.

19:19Five points to Kamel.

19:21Scoreboard, please.

19:22Well, joint leading at the moment, the guys on the end, Joel and Kamel on eight points.

19:26There we go.

19:28APPLAUSE

19:28What's next, Alex?

19:30Well, it's time to go nuts!

19:45I don't know.

19:46I don't know.

19:47I never get that right.

19:48I just, you know.

19:49You're the worst at that.

19:50Am I?

19:51Good.

19:55What was it?

19:56That was the worst.

19:57Getting harder.

19:59You are moving those around.

20:01You are.

20:02There's no way.

20:03Every time it's a struggle.

20:12Very cool.

20:14Task complete.

20:15Oh no.

20:15Right.

20:16Open this.

20:17Go ahead.

20:18Oh, that was so cool.

20:21It's a coconut with a face on it.

20:23Hello?

20:26Hi.

20:27Oh, hello.

20:27Mr. Coconut.

20:28That's not his name.

20:29Why would his name...

20:30Is your name Mr. Human?

20:32What is his name?

20:33Mr. Dickhead.

20:34His name is Mr. Dickhead.

20:37Win...

20:39Co-co...

20:40Co-conquers.

20:41Win Co-conquers.

20:42Co-conquers.

20:43Perfect.

20:44Co-conquers is conquers with coconuts.

20:48Win...

20:49Co-conquers.

20:50Co-conquers.

20:51Co-conquers.

20:53Co-conquers.

20:53You can prepare your co-conquers.

20:56Co-conquers.

20:57Co-conquers.

20:58However you like.

20:59As long as it still looks like a co-conquers.

21:01So that's coconuts and conquers.

21:03Co-con...

21:04Co-conquers.

21:05You have a maximum of 20 minutes.

21:07Your time starts now.

21:08Have you played conquers before?

21:09Yeah.

21:10Have you played co-conquers before?

21:11Never.

21:12Right.

21:12When you last played, did you trick your conquers in any way?

21:15No.

21:15No, I'm from Glasgow.

21:18We didn't play co-conquers.

21:20We didn't.

21:21All right.

21:22I'll bring some stuff.

21:23Okay.

21:24Mr Dickhead's staying, is he?

21:25Yeah.

21:32What's the co-conquers?

21:34Cock and cuss?

21:35Cock and cuss.

21:36Yeah.

21:36It seemed a natural way to say it.

21:38Cock and cuss.

21:39That's what Kamal does in his hotel room when he's at the gym.

21:44Okay, well, let's see all of them creating their co-conquer monsters.

21:48Am I going attack or defence?

21:50Am I going bubble wrap or am I going to kill a lot?

21:54I think I'm doing a mixture of offence and defence.

21:58Offence, defence.

22:00Right, I'm soaking it in vinegar.

22:02Right.

22:03Give me a good soap.

22:04This concrete's going to be jacked to the nines.

22:08PVA glue.

22:09Mm-hm.

22:15There's nothing inside it.

22:16There's nothing inside it.

22:17We'd already drilled a hole in it.

22:18Oh, really?

22:19Oh, there's a hole through it.

22:20Oh, yeah.

22:24I'm looking for some form of concrete.

22:27Right.

22:28I've got sand.

22:29Right, that looks good.

22:31Arguably, this could look like a conquer with some hair.

22:34It's going to make this bigger.

22:36In it goes.

22:38So, does that still look like a coconut?

22:41That's up to you.

22:46Is this legal practice in co-conquer?

22:49It's so legal.

22:50Oh, no.

22:53This will blow the rest of them out of the water.

22:55Great.

22:57I've got vinegar on my Thai.

22:59It's a sort of punk co-conquer.

23:01What's that?

23:01Co-co-co-conquer.

23:03Co-co-conquer.

23:04Co-co-conquer.

23:04I pick a conquer.

23:05I pick a conquer.

23:07I pick a conquer.

23:08Oh, Jimmy.

23:09This is a medieval torture device, isn't it?

23:12Offense and defence.

23:15Get that on.

23:16I think it looks quite good.

23:20Can I borrow some of your hair, please?

23:22I'll do a small bit there, because...

23:23Oh, gosh.

23:24There we are.

23:25There.

23:26You know what?

23:26I like it that you're on that.

23:29Look.

23:30At the horror.

23:32The destruction.

23:34That is Sir Concononca.

23:37OK.

23:37What's your coconut called?

23:38Bluey.

23:42It looks like I've mistreated a guinea pig or something.

23:47It's slightly worrying.

23:50In it goes.

23:51OK.

23:51Well, good luck in the tournament.

23:52Yeah, yeah, yeah.

23:53Cash prize?

23:53No?

23:54OK.

23:55I'll still do it.

23:58Did you say in the past that they were supposed to still look like a coconut afterwards?

24:02That was part of the ruling.

24:04Yeah.

24:04Some people may have failed in that regard.

24:07Like, for example, you know, the conquer that is inside a metal cup with a hammer tied to it.

24:14Well, you could see that it's a coconut.

24:17You could see...

24:18If you look at it, you'd be like, why is that coconut surrounded by so much crap?

24:21Yeah.

24:22Yeah, and he wrote the word coconut on it.

24:23And I wrote the word coconut on it.

24:25Ha-ha!

24:26What about the football with nails in it?

24:28And a bit of hair.

24:30Yeah.

24:31What's with all of you guys putting hair in it?

24:33There's hair, isn't there?

24:35Mmm.

24:37What was in yours?

24:38Why did you freeze it?

24:39I froze it to get it hard.

24:42On the internet, Joanna, it says, the easiest way to crack a coconut is to freeze it first.

24:45Ah!

24:47Oh!

24:48Armando, it also says, baking a coconut will make it crispy and easy to crack.

24:53What?

24:53The conquer contest is soon to come.

24:56But for now, have a little break while I top up Alex's data allowance.

25:00Oh!

25:01What the hell is bigbouncers.org?

25:06That's piss-fuck.

25:08LAUGHTER

25:16Hello, everybody.

25:18Welcome back to the advert.

25:20Good luck if you enter the competition to win that house by the coast.

25:23Back here, we're doing much more important things, aren't we, Alex?

25:27Oh, eff yes, we're...

25:29We're only about to watch the world's biggest ever co-conquers battle.

25:33Good luck, everyone.

25:35Here we go.

25:36Hello, and welcome to the season, I mean, Series 21, Co-Conquers Championship.

25:43Today, we have Joel Dahmer versus Armando Iannucci.

25:51Cluey versus Punk Co-Conquers.

25:54Well, Alex steps onto the playing field in protective gear that he absolutely doesn't need.

26:01The first hit is uneventful.

26:03Why do we have instant replays?

26:05Who knows?

26:06Nothing much is happening, but yet here we are.

26:11Armando wrapping his coconut in metal, really giving it an exoskeleton.

26:17Very smart.

26:18Knocks a bit of Armando's coconut loose, but still in the game.

26:24Third hit.

26:25Oh!

26:27And Joel's coconut is demolished.

26:32A handy victory for Armando as his Punk Co-Conquers absolutely decimates gluey.

26:39Next up, we have Joanna Page versus Amy Gledin.

26:45Guinea Pig versus Sir Conquerno.

26:48Boy, Sir Conquerno looks threatening.

26:51OH!

26:51Oh, first hit is absolute destruction on guinea pig.

26:57But guinea pig remains in the game.

26:59Next hit, guinea pig does almost no damage

27:03to Sir Khan Kanonkar.

27:05Oh, Sir Khan Kanonkar looking like

27:07an absolute favorite in this test.

27:09Third hit, oh, a huge upset.

27:13As Sir Khan Kanonkar absolutely separates from its string.

27:18Perhaps its weight was too much.

27:20Joanna Page wins.

27:24And our final fight, Kamail Nanjiani versus...

27:29Alex Horne?

27:31Mr. Dickhead versus Alex Horne,

27:34who many call Mr. Dickhead.

27:38Ooh, big hit.

27:39And immediately, Alex's coconut breaks,

27:43not completely, but certainly now vulnerable.

27:46Kamail's strike absolutely crushes

27:50crushes, crushes Alex's coconut.

27:54Kamail Nanjiani wins.

27:56As if there was any doubt.

27:59Here's to standing so far.

28:00And the finalists are guinea pig versus punkka-conker versus Mr. Dickhead.

28:09Who will come out on top?

28:11What will happen?

28:13First up, Joanna Page versus Iannucci.

28:17Oh, oh, Iannucci is out.

28:23Next round, guinea pig versus Mr. Dickhead.

28:27Mr. Dickhead loses his hammer.

28:29Oh, this is tough, but Mr. Dickhead will still fight.

28:37Oh, the final strike.

28:41Mr. Dickhead absolutely crushes guinea pig.

28:45Kamail Nanjiani wins in a victory for America.

28:51I will allow Mr. Dickhead, because I could clearly see it was a coconut in there,

28:56and he had labelled it coconut, so I take that criticism.

28:59Look, I'm never one, I'm never one, hey.

29:01Hey, I'm up for an argument.

29:02If I wrote Kamail Nanjiani on me, no one's going, oh, that's Kamail Nanjiani.

29:06They're going, that's...

29:07You need the accent, maybe, so let's see it.

29:10That might help.

29:13Oh, but how much career will I lose?

29:19Dear diary, I was cancelled tonight.

29:25Hey, the guinea pig held up well, didn't it?

29:26Oh, my God, I can't believe it.

29:28That, like, cement poly filler thing was amazing.

29:30Yeah.

29:31I'm sorry, but I was chuffed with that.

29:33They all held out really well, but there couldn't be only one winner, and there was.

29:36Yes, so...

29:37Oh, hello.

29:37Can I just say one tiny thing?

29:40You may.

29:40All I'm saying is, the string had come out of my con-con-con-con-con-con-con.

29:46Your con-con-con-con, yes.

29:48And the whole thing was on the ground.

29:50Yes.

29:51But only on the ground because of the string, but I didn't have anything to do with the

29:54string.

29:55And the con-con-con-con-con-con-con-con-con-con.

29:56Nobody did out all of the weight.

29:57There was no way and a football is heavier than a hammer, so I'm blaming the string.

30:06You may blame whatever you wish.

30:10Well, look, in round one, I guess my coconut was the quickest to go,

30:14though I don't get any points again.

30:15Joel, you didn't survive as long as Amy, so it's one point to you,

30:18it's two to you, Amy.

30:19Then in the final, Amanda went first, three points to you.

30:22Joanna Nick, four points, but the winner, Camilla Dabjani, five points!

30:28And Keaton for one more, please.

30:30Sure.

30:30And if you like photos of celebrities with things in their mouths,

30:33good for you.

30:35You're going to love this one.

30:54No other stuff, aren't you, Steph?

30:56Nothing.

30:59How are you?

31:00How do you feel good?

31:01Yeah?

31:02All the better for seeing you.

31:03Oh.

31:04Oh!

31:06Oh, my God.

31:07It's been happening as a photo.

31:08Oh, my God.

31:10Appear in the most photos, holding a different thing in your mouth,

31:13each thing bigger than the last thing.

31:15Only one of your things may be in the lab at any one time.

31:19The person who appears in the most photos,

31:21holding a different thing in their mouth,

31:23each thing bigger than the last thing, wins.

31:26The camera will take a picture once every ten seconds for ten minutes,

31:29and will start taking pictures in five minutes from now.

31:33OK.

31:34Yeah?

31:34I think, I think so.

31:36The camera will start taking pictures in four minutes, 50 seconds.

31:39That's the camera.

31:42It's going to take 60 pictures.

31:44I'm used to that, Alex.

31:45You know why?

31:46No.

31:47I'm famous.

31:56So, we will now watch this.

31:57I will comment on it.

31:59You will chat to me,

32:00and none of us will say anything sexual

32:02about you putting stuff in your mouths.

32:05Good luck, everyone!

32:06OK, well, first to snap are Amy, Joanna, and Camille.

32:15How am I doing on time?

32:16How much do I have left?

32:17OK, you're doing quite well on time.

32:19Just tell me the number.

32:20Right, well, until the...

32:21Sorry, Camille.

32:22The next words out of your mouth better be a number.

32:25Three minutes until the camera's...

32:26Camille?

32:29OK.

32:31I've got a hole.

32:33You've got a what?

32:34A hole.

32:35A salt.

32:36A salt.

32:37I've got a gnat.

32:39OK.

32:47Oh, huh.

32:48What was it?

32:48A clove!

32:50A clove.

32:55Lovely picture.

32:56Oh, folks.

32:57I'm a big test.

33:05Did I make it?

33:06Yeah, you think a fang's bigger than a banana?

33:09Yeah.

33:13Easy.

33:18A small.

33:19A bigger spoon.

33:21A bigger spoon.

33:22A bigger spoon.

33:23Oh!

33:27I think I'm bigger than that.

33:28I've gone pretty big.

33:32I've only got about two left.

33:33Oh, dear.

33:37Oh, my God.

33:38We're in the shit now.

33:43Am I allowed to carry on?

33:44Did I miss...

33:45I missed the last one, didn't I?

33:46I'm quite happy with that one.

33:49A chicken.

33:52A bigger chicken.

33:53A bigger chicken.

33:54Lovely.

33:55Ow!

33:56You all right?

33:56I just punched myself in the face with a chicken.

33:59I'm bigger than a chicken.

34:02I think I've scaled up too quickly.

34:04Fucked myself with a chicken.

34:05It was too big.

34:06You fucked yourself with a chicken.

34:07Yeah.

34:12Did you see that?

34:13I held it in my mouth.

34:16I held a chair in my mouth.

34:2045 seconds.

34:22This is gonna be tight!

34:28What was that?

34:29Me.

34:34You can take one more picture.

34:36It's the last one.

34:46You've got bigger and bigger and holding you in your mouth was inspired.

34:51But for me, you peeped at...

34:54I knew from Beggar's bowl.

34:58Now you've had some pretty big career highs.

35:01Do any of them rank next to shouting out on television?

35:04Did you see it?

35:05I held a chair in my mouth.

35:08Did you see it?

35:11I'm making a thing I'm proud of, stuff.

35:14Joanna.

35:14You played an absolute blinder.

35:16The only thing Joanna did wrong was she stopped when you missed a photo.

35:19It didn't matter if you missed a photo.

35:20It didn't say you had to be consecutive.

35:22Oh, no, really?

35:23Well, yes, but...

35:26How do you not go away?

35:27Yeah.

35:28Oh, that's shit.

35:30I know.

35:31Do you know what you said to me in private?

35:32What?

35:33I said, I don't like Welsh people.

35:38It's the end of part three.

35:40Soon, someone will go home with a used straw from Amy Gledhill's ex and Armando's grade one piano certificate.

35:46It's the stuff dreams are made of.

35:48Rubbish dreams.

36:18I'll see you in a minute.

36:19I'll see you in a picture in five seconds.

36:24Bonjour.

36:25What have you left?

36:25Oh, we started quite a while ago.

36:27Oh, huh?

36:31Like a long time?

36:33You've got eight minutes, 25 left.

36:40Bonjour.

36:42Au revoir.

36:45Clever.

36:49Banan.

36:58Lovely.

36:59Erm, bigger than that is this.

37:08Is that a bin?

37:09It's a bin, yeah.

37:10You put a bin in your mouth.

37:11Yep.

37:11Come on.

37:14Come on.

37:16Oh, no.

37:17Look at that.

37:19It's too big.

37:20It won't go around the corridor.

37:37It's so sweaty.

37:38It's a sweaty little egg.

37:46You can't really get bigger than that.

37:47No.

37:48Because you've got the house in your mouth.

37:49Yes, I've got the house in your mouth.

37:50I mean, once you can't go higher than house.

38:00Okay, good.

38:00And you both worked out something that Kamel didn't work out.

38:03And that is that you didn't have to suspend the weight of the objects from your jaw.

38:09I've not got much to say.

38:10I just thought they did a pretty good job.

38:12And Armando held a whole house in his mouth.

38:15If you see someone fighting a pillar, would you say,

38:19why does that guy have a whole house in his mouth?

38:21I would, yeah.

38:23Me too.

38:24Me too.

38:25Well, look, I can tell you some numbers.

38:27Please.

38:28In last place, with 12 things in his mouth, it's Armando Gagnucci.

38:31You get one point.

38:32Kamel, you got 16 in the end.

38:34You get two points.

38:34Joanna got 19 things in her mouth.

38:37Despite missing several of the photos at the beginning,

38:39Joel, you were pretty quick.

38:40You got 26 things in your mouth.

38:42But the winner, with 30 things in her wonderful mouth,

38:45it's Amy Glendale.

38:46Five points.

38:48All right, then.

38:50Will you please make your waiting stage for the final task of the show?

38:58CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

39:05I'm back in my counting booth.

39:06Cool, man.

39:07Second week in a row.

39:08Who's going to read the task, eh?

39:10I think Kamel Nanjiani should read it.

39:12Kamel.

39:13Land beanbags on your opponent's faces.

39:17If your face is struck three times, you are eliminated.

39:20You may only throw one beanbag at a time,

39:22and you must throw from your spot.

39:24If you strike the taskmaster's face,

39:26the taskmaster will launch his own double-strength beanbag.

39:30LAUGHTER

39:32Last player standing wins.

39:34Ready, Greg?

39:34Yes.

39:35Ready, contestants?

39:36Yes.

39:37Yes.

39:37Begin the face vortex.

39:40LAUGHTER

39:41So it's Kamel to...

39:43And off he goes.

39:44What?

39:44Armando, he has targeted you.

39:46Remember that.

39:47OK.

39:48I can do it.

39:49Do I?

39:49No.

39:49Not yet.

39:50Yeah.

39:50Joel.

39:51Oh!

39:52You're in play for it.

39:54Oh!

39:54Remember, these are worth two lives.

39:56This could kill Armando.

40:00LAUGHTER

40:01You hit your own face.

40:03You hit your own face.

40:06Armando again.

40:07They are all targeting Armando.

40:09Armando, if you hit your own face, you're out.

40:12You hit your own face!

40:14You hit your own face!

40:15Settle.

40:16OK, Amy.

42:13OK, here we are.

42:19So I have to get all three on Camille.

42:22Yeah.

42:25Wow!

42:29Oh, no!

42:56Let's have those two final scores! Come and join me!

43:04Well, well, well. That was high-octane stuff.

43:08It really was. And boy, can he throw accurately with a beanbag at other people's faces.

43:12Oh, man, he's good.

43:13What's that done to the final scores?

43:15We have three people in joint second on 16 points.

43:18Second week in a row. I can't believe it.

43:19But the winner, with 20 points, is Mr. Camille Nanjani!

43:22Yay!

43:26Camille Nanjani wins!

43:29Please go up and cringe with your embarrassing things!

43:35So, good.

43:38What have we learnt today?

43:39Well, we've learnt that ostensibly Taskmaster is a light entertainment show.

43:43But sometimes there are darker forces at play.

43:46Sometimes it's a vehicle for people to face their innermost fears.

43:50To dig deep into their psyche.

43:52To find the courage that they never knew they had.

43:55To reveal the most harrowing secrets from their most checkered past.

43:59To...

44:00Ah!

44:03Yeah, we're fine.

44:09Here is your champion for the night.

44:11Camille Nanjani!

44:29Mike Camille Nanjani!

44:31And there.

44:33There!

44:35There!

44:37There!

44:38There!

44:39There!
