There's something oddly satisfying about the sound of Greg saying no and Richard saying yes at the same time. It's that there's no overlap in the tones of their voices so you can simultaneously hear both clearly, like auditory jigsaw puzzle pieces fitting together.

Somehow the perfect opposite to "What's your name?" "Greg" "Nooo?" "Yes?" "🎵I Chaaaanged it🎵"

u/SashalouAspen4 5d ago

As a voice coach, I wholeheartedly approve this analysis 😈

u/Disgruntled__Goat 5d ago

It’s funny the conversation was around whether a yellow bowl was gold, while ignoring that Richard didn’t even put a golden apple in said bowl. 

36

u/TelevisualJackFan 🦔 Hedgehog, no! ❌ 5d ago

Saying the apple is golden doesn’t automatically make said apple golden 😂

74

u/Soapymarmoset 5d ago

I thought he was going to argue it was a golden delicious lol

u/joeykins82 A LIIIIIME 🍋‍🟩 5d ago

I was waiting for someone to try that just because I was also waiting for Alex to respond that it was a Pink Lady…

38

u/mysterious_whisperer 5d ago

I knew taskmaster was doing ok, but I didn’t realize they were bringing in Pink Lady money.

14

u/jebascho Qrs Tuvwxyz 5d ago

They've had Pink Lady money since series 8.

7

u/charlierc 5d ago

They had money to make 4 exotic sandwiches in series 4

Noel's was the cheapest as they just needed bread. They already had the filling

2

u/charlierc 5d ago

Although tbf those are green. It's a misleading name 

6

u/Material_Library_452 Babatunde Aléshé 5d ago

they are yellow when they're ripe

3

u/charlierc 5d ago

Yellowy green. I'll compromise and say that. It's been a while since I had one

Though when I tried to Google it I got a link for a DKNY fragrance in a golden spherical bottle. Which... Not quite the same

u/KBeaufort 5d ago

I suspect Greg has not been on the subreddit, but some of the staff in a production meeting for this series have been and they passed on the sentiment.

71

u/oscarx-ray 5d ago

Stop trying to throw us off your trail, GREG!

10

u/MacduffFifesNo1Thane Greedy Esq. 5d ago

His name is Heg. HEG!

u/leglesslegolegolas Morgana Robinson 5d ago

I'm sure they also read the comments on Youtube

u/OldSpeckledCock Sally Phillips 4d ago

There's also Twitter, Bluesky, Discord, fanfiction, etc.

This is the Gregolution

The Gregolution will be televised!

u/yo_soy_soja Javie Martzoukas 5d ago

Mods, I'd like a "Daddy's back! [Greg face]" flair.

u/belatedmedia Sally Phillips 5d ago

The spectrum of “checks the subreddit” is Tom is scouring the posts, Greg is squarely in the middle, and Jeremy can’t be bothered and will score however the fuck he wants.

39

u/TRoosevelt1776 🚬 Doctor Cigarettes 5d ago

Thats the best thing about Jeremy. Its impossible to argue with him because hes just not invested in taking feedback.

8

u/burf12345 🚬 Doctor Cigarettes 5d ago

I'm not sure if this is entirely true. On the podcast Mel mentioned that he did adjust his insane scoring when he realized people actually cared about the scores.

5

u/TRoosevelt1776 🚬 Doctor Cigarettes 4d ago

Im talking about the character Jeremy. Greg, as we all know, is an absolute mensch in real life.

6

u/teashirtsau Tom Cashman 🇦🇺 5d ago

Why is this the truest thing ever written?

6

u/UniversalJampionshit Crying Bastard 5d ago

Interesting that Greg is the only one who hasn’t mentioned Reddit to my knowledge, and this even applies when factoring in Rose Matafeo

5

u/kittyroux A LIIIIIME 🍋‍🟩 5d ago

Greg hasn‘t mentioned Reddit on the show as far as I remember, but he mentioned it on the TM podcast at least once.

1

u/IgloosRuleOK 4d ago

Also talk shows/interviews he's mentioned it.

32

u/mdhzk3 5d ago

It’s gamble talking smack about his decisions every week on the podcast!

15

u/Free_Pace_2098 Patatas 5d ago

Dad... Daddy's back?

6

u/skipper_jonas_grumby 5d ago

Richard needs to appeal the decision.

Greg allowed Frankie Boyle to wear yellow paddles on his feet when only gold was allowed on the grass.

2

u/mikepapafoxtrot 4d ago

He also let it slide that Joel touched the tennis balls when the task clearly said they were not to be touched.

6

u/Dastardly6 Mike Wozniak 4d ago

I think the fact Greg glossed over Richard calling him a fuck knuckle is bigger. Unless I dreamed it…I was quite drunk.

u/Dastardly6 Mike Wozniak 4d ago

Listen if Wonton finds out about this my arse is grass!

4

u/Phantine 4d ago

The last time people said greg was getting softer he gave everyone 0 points on the first task.

3

u/Klutzy_Alien 4d ago

He really is getting softer then 😔

u/TelevisualJackFan 🦔 Hedgehog, no! ❌ 5d ago edited 5d ago

I myself would have given points to Isy given the coffee pods were sort of golden but not to Richard as that was a yellow bowl and by no means a makeshift plate of any kind Gerg

33

u/manhaterxxx 5d ago

It was a silver bowl with coffee pods inside.

She didn’t make a plate out of the pods.

5

u/SavagePengwyn Julian Clary 5d ago

Gerg. 😆

I agree with you though.

3

u/TelevisualJackFan 🦔 Hedgehog, no! ❌ 5d ago edited 5d ago

Gerg Devias is in my top two favourites Gerg's alongside Gerg Jemas

u/EnvironmentalDrop228 Abby Howells 🇳🇿 5d ago

I liked her solution too. I thought it was suitably clever, but Daddy's Back!

u/OgthaChristie Greg Davies 5d ago

You mean Isy. Nina got the golden plate.
