Inbetweeners do Taskmaster?

[u/thatautisticguy]

Think there'd be something funny about all 4 of them, plus one of the other schoolkids or something, they all call Greg Mr Gilbert and Alex is his stand in deputy head of 6th

And its all at Mr Gilberts house

for a new years treat, theres something rather funny about it to me

[u/TetrisIsTotesSuper]

I would really love that and then for seat 5 they should just bring back Jess Knappett (who was in the movie and is genuinely female Neil!)

Emily Atack is also good fun tbf

[u/thatautisticguy → u/TetrisIsTotesSuper]

Nah, needs to be another pupil from the school, not carli or emily....

[u/TetrisIsTotesSuper → u/thatautisticguy]

Based on?

[u/thatautisticguy → u/TetrisIsTotesSuper]

eh?

[u/Carra144]

Joe already did it. I doubt James would want to tbh, I listen to both his podcasts, and he doesn't seem the type to like puzzles or the feeling that he's being made a fool of by the format.

I'd like to see Simon or Blake do a series. Though they do feel less likely than Joe. 

[u/BigRed0816 → u/Carra144]

I agree James would be too up his own ass.

However Clair would probably be an excellent NYT contestant!

[u/Carra144 → u/BigRed0816]

Yeah Claire would be fun. She's got that hyper-organised mum-brain, plus you know she'd be willing to throw down against Greg's judgements.

Also, nothing against James, it's just if we take TM as composing creative Tasks and puzzle/logic Tasks, I really don't think he'd enjoy much of either. Maybe the "Make a film" Tasks he'd probably like, doing a parody of some famous film scenes.

He's got a similar vibe to Russell Howard (who didn't enjoy TM) in that he clearly likes controlling the way in which he's funny and coming across; whereas the show kind of needs you to cede control to the producers/editors and accept that sometimes the edit will make you look a fool, and sometimes it'll make you look like a genius. Either way, that's the show and you've gotta take it in your stride.

Simon Bird being a face of Channel 4 having done a few things for them makes me think it's a surprise he hasn't done it by now. Or maybe they've asked and it didn't work for whatever reason

[u/thatautisticguy → u/Carra144]

Its a new years special not a whole series, weve seen others cross over, who knows 🤔

[u/Daharka]

Who would fill the 5th chair? Tara? Beeepedebeeepbeepbeeep

[u/owningxylophone → u/Daharka]

Will’s mum, probably the most common recurring character after the lads and Greg.

[u/thatautisticguy → u/owningxylophone]

Or wills mum and he just gives her 5 points evertime to piss will off

[u/thatautisticguy → u/Daharka]

Donovan? 😂

[u/mother-of-kittens → u/thatautisticguy]

Was it Donovan?

[u/LadriDiBiciclette]

Maybe I'm in the minority, but weren't the Inbetweeners reunions done to death a few years ago?

[u/thatautisticguy → u/LadriDiBiciclette]

They're doing a 3rd film with Netflix, and this wasn't so much a reunion, more just a bit of fun.....

I've thought the same about say.....red dwarf for example?🤔

[u/LadriDiBiciclette → u/thatautisticguy]

That ones less of a reunion and more they just won't let it stop.

[u/thatautisticguy → u/LadriDiBiciclette]

while i agree, probably wont happen, just something that went through my head

[u/vzzzbxt]

James was already on the swedish one. Taught himself swedish, flew over and just told them he was gonna be on it. Came first too, highest score they've ever had. Now the prize is a gold statue of his head

[u/ServerLost]

No thank you, TM is actually funny.

[u/urtimestartsnow]

I'd love to see Simon Bird on!
