* HiddenDepths: When tasked with learning Swedish in 15 minutes, he reveals -- to the shock of everyone -- a halting fluency that would have been impossible to achieve in the time allotted and even sings a Swedish drinking song. He reveals that he'd gone on holiday to Sweden some time previously and had made a point of hanging out with locals and trying to learn the language.

Added DiffLines:

* TooCleverByHalf: In the task to put as many rubber ducks into the basket of Alex's bike, she's the only one who realizes she can remove the basket from the bike, and by doing so becomes the only contestant to successfully get every duck in the basket. However, she disregards the stipulation that she can only hold one duck at a time, having come to the conclusion that there must be a trick. It isn't, and she's disqualified for her efforts.

* CloudCuckooLander: One of the show's defining examples. Throughout the season Bridget seemingly has one foot out of reality.



* FunnyWalk: Much mileage is made from Bridget's unique walk during the pedometer task, with Greg even asking if she'd ever walked before.




to:

* VitriolicBestBuds: "Best" is an exaggeration, but she's been friends with the Taskmaster for over seventeen years, and they're prone to bickering over points - most notably in "Having a Little Chuckle", during the prize task (Most Surprising Thing From Their Wardrobes), when she presents an antique kimono she purchased for him as a gift before learning it was worth thousands of pounds. He immediately challenges her over why he never received his gift, with her claiming that she hasn't had an opportunity to give it to him over the past seventeen years and him countering that he lives in London and that she had multiple opportunities to give it to him. Nevertheless he gives her the full five points since, while he was surprised for the wrong reasons, he "was" nonetheless surprised.

* TheGenericGuy: When Alex is called upon to do an impression of all this series' contestants, Sophie is the only one whom he can't come up with a distinctive VerbalTic or tone of voice to imitate - much to her annoyance.

However, she does have her own quirks, such as her fascination with death, sharp wit, and millennial lifestyle. It's more a case of everyone else in her series having a more defined personality.

* SurprisinglyGoodForeignLanguage: The first task in "You Tuper Super" involves learning Swedish in fifteen minutes, and then having a five-minute conversation with Fred the Swede. Ardal demonstrates that he can speak a lot more Swedish than most people can pick up in fifteen minutes, even singing a Swedish drinking song. He then reveals that he'd gone on holiday in Sweden and made an effort to learn the language while there.
