Greg Davies is the "Taskmaster" in this game show that challenges the wit and wisdom of five comics, who are all putting their reputations on the line. Sidekick Alex Horne assists Davies in setting up unique and ridiculous tasks for the competitors, which include painting a picture of a horse whilst riding a horse, and making a portrait of a celebrity using only toilet rolls. The competition is further charged up by the fact that the prize pot is made up of each person's personal possessions, which they lose to the overall winner.

Michael H @RT23193295 07/09/2024 A thought perhaps the show would be getting stale by now, or the quality of comedian would diminish by series 17. Neither was the case, a fantastic season as ever from this great show. See more Vinnyrenzi T @RT98084810 06/12/2024 Hilarious tasks as usual. Great show, great atmosphere.
