Performance[]
Frankie Boyle: Frankie met Ben Reynolds on the decking with his drum kit, and kept telling him to play it faster and faster. He then created a drum kit from oil drums, a bin, a spare wheel, plastic tennis racquets and a balance board before he attempted to keep up with his drum solo. He received 4 points.
Ivo Graham: Ivo met Mark Brown outside the caravan with his baritone saxophone, and decided to make a "jaunty" tune using letters from "Ivo Graham" and "Taskmaster". He then painted a cactus gold and attached spoons to it before miming along to the saxophone. He received 5 points.
Jenny Eclair: Jenny met Joe Auckland in the geodesic dome with his trumpet, and asked him to just copy her "singing" when composing the tune. She then created a trumpet from tin foil, a toilet plunger, coffee pots and a banana before enthusiastically miming along to her trumpet solo. She received 5 points.
Kiell Smith-Bynoe: Kiell met Ed Sheldrake in the living room with his keyboard, and made a song by singing words from the task and asking how old Ed was. He then created a piano out of books and successfully mimed along to his tune whilst singing his new song. He received 5 points.
Mae Martin: Mae met Will Collier on the driveway with his upright bass, and decided to try to make their solo more interesting by having Will play with his right foot, rather than his hand. They then made a double bass out of a sled, a table, strings and a pole before playing it with their foot. They received 4 points.
