Taskmaster Intro

Good evening. Welcome to Stormester. My name is Lasse Rimmer, and I've been looking forward to this evening like a child on Christmas Eve who just heard a man come down the chimney with the words, 'My gift to you this year is a new season of Stormester'. I have brewed on new tasks, and we have five fresh rivals who will dance on the line between failure and triumph.

Assistant Intro

It's like returning home, to sit in this chair next to my faithful companion, Mark le Fêvre. Funny little thing: Le Fêvre is French, and means 'the rat lover'.
