Jackie van Beek

Jackie's trust in Paul leads to a dramatic turn in her breakup; Bree discovers a clue; the comedians try to improve a moment from their teenage years.

The contestants must bring an unexpectedly heavy item, sketch the Taskmaster playing table tennis, and express multiple emotions in just four seconds.

Alice Snedden, Bree Tomasel, Jack Ansett, Jackie van Beek and Pax Assadi are all vying for the coveted gold trophy with a trip to space.

Real life journalist David Farrier (Tickled) is on a quest to find the everyday New Zealander, the stalwart of our community, in this mockumentary series. He meets seven of these so called “Short Poppies,” a diverse group of unique individuals all played by comedy tour de force, Rhys Darby (Flight of the Conchords, Hunt for the Wilderpeople, Yes Man). Meet Steve Whittle. Steveʼs narcolepsy prevents him holding down a job which has gifted him the opportunity to become a full time UFO-ologist after a series of "out of this world" experiences. He holds a support group at the local library for people who have experienced alien contact and runs a hotline through which he gathers information on encounters.

Comedians show off their party tricks, tackle a numbers challenge, and compete in a tense tower-building contest for glory.

Contestants face diverse challenges: presenting their Achilles' heel, escaping prison, filming a climactic scene, completing rapid-fire tasks, and creating a unique sound.
