It looks like you have already passed task 1.

For task 2, if you just try this code as-is, you'll get a "Bummer" message that contains this hint: "Use the extend method to add all items in one list to another".

Steven Parker I have entered the exact same as the person that has started this thread, but when I click show preview and refresh, it doesn't like something. What am I missing? thanks.

The code above will pass task 1. Task 2 hasn't been done yet.

Steven Parker, I clicked check work and its not passing try it yourself. Theres something thats missing. python '''beatles = ["John"] others = ["George", "Ringo"] beatles.append("paul")''' . I still don't know how to insert the black box with python script.

I copy the words from inside the black box above and then paste them directly into the challenge box, and it passes task 1 for me with no changes.

Note that in your unformatted sample code you spelled "paul" with a lower-case "p" instead of "Paul" as shown above (and asked for in the instructions).
