Taskmaster Intro

Hello! I'm Greg Davies. Welcome to a brand new series of Taskmaster. Across the next eight episodes, five comedians, slash presenter, slash actors, will take on a raft of absurd tasks, desperate to win this near-exact replica of my saggy old head and declare themselves the series champion. But who are these people? Well, without further ado, let's meet our shiny new competitors.

Taskmaster's Sign-off

So, what have we learnt today? Well, we've learnt if you're thinking of being Hugh Dennis' baby, it don't matter if you're black or white. We've also found at that the winner of the first episode of series four of Taskmaster is none other than Mr Noel Fielding! Thank you, everybody! See you next time.
