    Glad to see people watching NZ! So in Series 9 of UK Taskmaster, Rose Matafeo says that every Kiwi has a poster of New Zealands common fish hanging in their shed/out building. She brought one in for the episode 8 prize task “Best thing from a shed”. And then NZ Taskmaster has a fish poster in their outbuilding and the memorable live task: Memorise the names of the fish on the poster in the shed (S03E02).

    My question, American here, is this true? Do Kiwi’s have fish posters? Or is this a Taskmaster fiction NZ is happy to play along with?

    P.s. Paul is such a good Alex, he/taskmaster team come up with some of the best tasks.

      I was so fucking happy when I saw that fish poster in there the first time! “It’s the thing!!” I said to myself, delighted.

        The UK task a couple seasons after Rose’s, when everything was a Red Herring… Wasn’t there a fish poster, in the UK shed that was all red Herrings? Love the ridiculous lore, like Patatas and laminators.
