Summary

Five comics chase gold: Tasks, chaos, and glory-one wins, four fall. Let the madness begin!

Episode 9: Getaway Sticks

Summary

There's nostalgia in the air as Patatas the cat returns to the series. Meanwhile, Fatiha El-Ghorri knocks down an egg-shaped Alex Horne, Rosie Ramsey bravely faces her fear of heights, Mathew Baynton waits patiently near a safe and Stevie Martin constructs something special with a fishing line. As usual, Greg Davies sets the challenges and determines who has triumphed

Review

Huw Fullerton

In the penultimate episode of this series, our five comedy stars are really put through their paces. First up, there’s a double bill of tricky subjective tasks — ones where creativity is awarded more than any fast time or high score — which leads to some weird and wonderful imagery. Think butterflies, bananas, swaying egg costumes and a stirring medieval swordfight.

And following all that nonsense, contestants are subjected to the “multi-Task” , a gruelling gauntlet of overlapping challenges culminating in the discovery of a matted stuffed cat (who may be familiar to viewers from previous series). It’s brilliantly chaotic — if this is what they’re throwing in episode nine, we must be in for a stellar final.
