1. It's from Mary Poppins, which is a beloved Movie.

2. I can say it.

3. It's a super long word that the people of Wales would be proud of.

4. It's a really catchy song that I can't stop singing once I hear it

GOBBLEDYGOOK

its such a fun word to say and the meaning is literal to how its spelt....unintelligable nonsense and that is why it is the best word


Benjamin 08-08-2025 02:05 PM

NIAMH

Spoiler:


NO

It's short, it's to the point, it's easy to spell, it says everything that needs to be said in one loud syllable, it's freedom, it's assertiveness, it's don't ****** with me. No is a complete sentence.


Benjamin 08-08-2025 02:05 PM

KATE

Spoiler:


My choice for the best word is....

QUINTESSENTIAL

(adj.) representing the most perfect or typical example of a quality; classic.

Literally fits the definition of best word. Plus it sounds very cute.


Benjamin 08-08-2025 02:06 PM

So how did The Task Master rate your words?

Benjamin 08-08-2025 02:07 PM

MARU

Spoiler:

2 points. Not overly keen with mixing a beloved children's series with the male sex pump. It sounds like something that alleged "comedian" James Acaster might say. Madame Cholet would never.

Benjamin 08-08-2025 02:08 PM

MOCK

Spoiler:

4 points - ahh the memories of that delightful film of yesteryear and all the beautiful songs, plus an excellent Corgi toy car. It’s amazing that one of the singers of the song, based on this word, and from the 1964 film is still with us today!

Benjamin 08-08-2025 02:08 PM

ANNIE

Spoiler:

3 points - good, an American word and one that sounds like it means and has its origins in the noise Turkeys make!

Benjamin 08-08-2025 02:09 PM

NIAMH

Spoiler:

1 point - no


KATE

Spoiler:

5 points - a beautiful word that can be traced back to Aristotle in ancient Greece and has been in our own lexicon for around 600 years. It’s an elegant and infinately useful word.

Yayyyyyyy

Desert Island

Next up you had your first team challenge of the series. In your teams you had to come up with a team name and then between you decide on 10 items to take to a desert island.

Was The Task Master impressed with your lifelines?

Benjamin 08-08-2025 02:13 PM

First up we had Annie and Mock:

TEAM 1

Spoiler:


Team Name - Double Trouble


Inflatable Flamingo

Why: For transportation, shade, and emotional support. Also doubles as our island throne.

Waterproof Karaoke Machine

Why: For belting power ballads when we are sad, rock tunes when we are happy and party anthems at our night time dance parties.

Set of Wigs (Variety Pack)

Why: To reinvent ourselves daily and trick ourselves into thinking were not all alone on the island.

An Inflatable Bar

Why: We know the TaskMaster loves a big old blow up bar....maybe he'll be unable to stay away and will come rescue us.

Glow-in-the-Dark Body Paint

Why: For body art, SOS messages, and terrifying nocturnal self-expression.

Life-Size Cardboard Cutout of The Rock

Why: As a mentor, friend, protector and plus, great for shade

A Book Titled “How to Train Seagulls and Fish to do your Dirty Work"

Why: Well firstly we hope someone has written such a book that will come in useful at times such as this. Being stranded on a desert island sounds exhausting so if the fish can catch themselves and then the seagulls cook them for us and look for coconuts, it will be a big help. Then when we are rescued we can train seagulls to do our dirty work at home too ....happy days

Berserk Manga - Because it's a really good series that I personally would never get tired of reading. And I would recommend anyone that likes Dark Fantasy to read.

Acoustic Guitar - Because the Guitar is an awesome instrument, and I would hope to finally learn how to play it.

Sci-Fi Now Magazine - Because I do like my Sci-Fi stuff, and I have a lot of nostalgia towards reading the latest issues of Sci-Fi Now, and getting up to date news on what was coming out within the genre.


Kate! 08-08-2025 02:13 PM

I definitely know now who the task master is.

Benjamin 08-08-2025 02:15 PM

Next up is Kate, Maru and Niamh.

TEAM 2

Spoiler:


Team name: The Master Taskers


1. Sleeping bags - for use at varying times, for comfort, warmth and shade.
2. A tent - for use at varying times, for comfort, warmth and shade also.
3. A Karaoke machine with an endless supply of batteries - To entertain ourselves and pass time.
4. Dutch Oven (or whatever it is called in the UK) - because one can't have a reality TV-like experience on an island in style without a basic oven to have most of your plot advancing discussions around. (Most discussions will begin and end with food).
5. Medical Kit - Because who wants to die on the first week. That would be embarrassing.
6. Solar Powered Lamp - Could be used for emergencies but also for night time reading if someone brings reading materials.
7. A Fishing Rod - a must, surely for sustenance
8. Potatoes to ‘chit’ - to plant for a hardy, reliable and nutritious veg to accompany our seafood dinners.
9. Pillows - a rested head can overcome any obstacle the day might throw at you.
10. Supply of matches - to light fires. To cook, to keep warm, to keep wild animals away so we don't end up as dinner. Also to boil water before we drink it.

:oh:

Benjamin 08-08-2025 02:17 PM

And here’s how they ranked your survival kit out of 5…


Spoiler:

5 points - Double Trouble

It wasnt going too well until i saw the Life size cardboard Rock and that really did float my illegal migrant boat. A guitar is a good thing to have - just look at how it made "Training day" at Wernham Hogg go much better. Nice book addition. Every desert Island needs an inflatable bar as that is a given - who wants to go about their day without a morning pint?. No idea about a Beserk Mango or what it would taste like. Wigs are ideal for sex role play where one person could be Richard and one could be Judy. Phwooooaaaaar. I note this pair do like to blow a lot of things.

4 points - The Master Taskers

This was a more practical go at things with the basics covered like a tent, pillows, rod for fish and medical kit. I stalled however at the use of a Dutch oven - no one wants a practical joke where someone farts under the covers of a bed and then pulls the blanket over the head of another person, trapping the gas. This act is likened to the cooking pot of the same name, which traps heat - disgusting. You could also live on potatoes so good choice of the basics. A lamp is good but no book? Overall a good Bear Grills stab at this task.

Benjamin 08-08-2025 02:18 PM

So the scores for round 3 finished as follows

Spoiler:

Mock - 10
Kate - 9
Annie - 9
Maru - 6
Niamh - 5


Kate! 08-08-2025 02:20 PM

Well done everyone

Benjamin 08-08-2025 02:20 PM

And here’s an update on the series scores so far. The gap between 1st and 5th has closed quite considerably after round 3. And we have a new leader!

Spoiler:

23 points - Mock
22 points - Niamh
20 points - Annie
18 points - Maru
16 points - Kate

Kate! 08-08-2025 02:21 PM

Ooh I have some points :laugh:

ROUND 4


Task 1 - Most awkward thing you could bring to a wedding, and why it’s the most awkward thing.


Task 2 - Timed task

For this task, you will be timed on how quickly and accurately you can complete it.

To keep it fair, when you are ready for it let me know. I will then send you the task. The timer starts as soon as I send it to you, so make sure you have a bit of time…

Kate! 08-08-2025 02:26 PM

Love these tasks.

Maru 08-08-2025 05:15 PM

I should've gone with Meghan Markle cookware. We all know it's coming, anyway.

Kate! 08-08-2025 05:16 PM

I've sent my task submissions.

Fiendish!! :fist:
