Stuck In A Mammal Groove

Series 8 / Episode 3

It’s Lou Sanders who leads the pack at this early stage of Series 8, but there’s a long journey ahead for the five comics hoping to claim Greg Davies’s gilded head. With the Taskmaster’s keen admin enthusiast, Alex Horne, recording events, Joe Thomas struggles with the definition of a mammal, Iain Stirling devises an explosive chemistry experiment and Sian Gibson sends a NSFW text to Greg.

Tasks

Prize: Best burstable thing.

Build the best volcano.

Work out what Alex is wearing next door. You must both stay in your seats, and Alex may only communicate with his horn.

Do the worst thing, then make the best apology to Alex for it.

Live: Get in your first sleeping bag with your arms through the holes, the zip zipped up and the hood up, and salute the Taskmaster for a full five seconds. Then, get in your second sleeping bag while still in the first, and skip once.
