A crescent of 472 socks

It’s episode 7 of series 21 of Taskmaster, and we’re back with Amy Gledhill and Armando Iannucci, human record scratches; Joanna Page, who should not pursue a career as a mixed-media artist; Joel Dommett, who is taking damn good care of that egg; and Kumail Nanjiani, who finally goads Little Alex Horne about America.

Taskmaster series 21, episode 7

Once again, it’s a great episode from beginning to end, with great studio banter and great studio snorting. The prize tasks have been a particular high point this season; there’s always some duds, sure, but overall the themes have been open to wide interpretation, and the objects have been thoughtful and creative.
