In this Broadcast Award-winning, BAFTA and Emmy Award-nominated entertainment show, Taskmaster tyrant Greg Davies (Man Down, Cuckoo), with the help of his loyal assistant Alex Horne (The Horne Section and the show’s creator), sets out to test the wiles, wit and wisdom of five hyper-competitive comedians.
Comedians that have risked life, limb, and dignity in the hope of making the Taskmaster proud so far include: Frank Skinner (The Frank Skinner Show), Mel Giedroyc (The Great British Bake Off), Romesh Ranganathan (Asian Provocateur), Hugh Dennis (Outnumbered), Sally Phillips (Bridget Jones’ Diary), Rose Matafeo (Edinburgh Comedy Award Winner 2018), and Russell Howard (The Russell Howard Hour). Unaware of what awaits them in each wax-sealed envelope, only one competitor can become the victorious owner of His Royal Task-ness’ golden head and be crowned the next Taskmaster Champion.

Hugh is arguably one of the most clever contestants to appear on the show, but then I remember that he genuinely pays to be part of that Cloud Appreciation Society, so I’m not sure where that puts him in the terms of cleverness

@Jayk-kz7sh 3 года назад

Tallulah Toms basically Hugh pays 15 pounds a year to be emailed pictures of clouds every day. Even though he can easily look up pictures of clouds, or just look up into the sky for free. For a prize task he bought the winner a year subscription to the Society, which was easily the worst prize to win ever
