  • The Taskmaster is a mischievous one, isn't he? Not only does he love setting the comedians a challenge, but he also finds joy in tricking them into hilarious solo tasks. The twist is, they don't know they're the only ones taking part!
    Featuring Joe Lycett, Mark Watson, Mel Giedroyc, Tim Vine and Josh Widdicombe.
    The comedy game show Taskmaster, where contestants are challenged by Greg Davies to complete a series of weird and wonderful tasks! Be glad you're not a comedian (or little Alex Horne) facing his wrath! Watch more compilations from the series here: • Taskmaster | Channel 4

      Although the small team that work behind the scenes on the show (only around 15-20 people in total) come up with “a few”, it’s Alex Horne who thinks up the majority of the weird, wonderful and hilarious tasks. “Alex is basically a superhero in terms of his humour and wit,” said Andy.

    I Russell looking at Alice like: wtf, I don't remember this! & notice how she & asim spelled stationary differently. Also all of his photos getting that sort of tick mark noise, except the one getting that gold ball hitting metal/a window (without breaking) noise

    Is it considered a solo task if one of you has to sabotage the other teammates in a team task? Cuz that was the best, if so. Dara and Fern's disgust was so... verbal. 😂

    I would've seen if there was a way to deflate the ball without damaging it or blindfolded the person trying to find the ball.
