Always thought she had something about her. Although when Morgana did her Gordie accent I got a little stir!

I haven't seen this week's episode yet, but last week on Only Connect VCM was wearing what appeared to be a very obvious ginger wig (might do it for some people tbh). They never mentioned this at all during the ep.

She was back to her normal hair this week, again no mention. I wonder if it was TM related?

So far, a very excellent start to the series.

He looked really weird in the studio segments, then I realised I’ve never seen him without a cap.

David Mitchell's brand-new comedy entertainment series Outsiders sees David challenge a returning cast of three pairs of comedians to prove they've got the mettle and skills to thrive in the great outdoors. Comedians going to head to head are:Toussaint Douglass, Ed Gamble, Kerry Godliman, Jessica Knappett, Jamali Maddix and Lou Sanders.

https://dave.uktv.co.uk/shows/outsiders/

Just a reminder that this starts today. Clearly Dave’s response to losing Taskmaster, but could be good it its own right.

I've watched the first two episodes and it's been OK. Mitchell does talk a lot of waffle though, and Lou Sanders is still annoying as hell.

Yeah it's not bad, but I don't lacked "something".
I'll keep watching and see if it gets better but I'm not sure I'll give a 2nd series a go if this one doesn't have some lightbulb moment.

Bit of a flaw, having a team task for the final round. It meant that whoever was in the same team as the current episode leader couldn’t possibly overtake to win the episode.

Yeah, it was. Seems like they had more time to think up good socially distanced tasks for this series, unlike the previous one where they had to adapt what they already had prepared.

Yeah that's the impression I've got with this as well. Also I assume maybe the rules whilst making weren't as strict.

That often happens in Taskmaster. I'm not generally a fan of the team tasks, they always seem like the worst parts of the show. There are exceptions, obviously.

Generally speaking I'd prefer tasks to be individual.
