Episode synopsis

This single episode Christmas special, featuring the cast of season 6, aired on 25 December 2022.

In this episode, the contestants must find an almond, predict what another contestant will do with an item, give the Taskmaster a surprising Christmas gift, make their own Christmas wish come true, and try to end up with the lit Christmas tree.

Title context

The title is merely a reference to the fact that this was a Christmas special.

Taskmaster Intro

Welcome to a special holiday edition of Stormester. We celebrate the feast of the hearts in classic Stormester fashion, with Christmas task nuts to be cracked by a well-known cast of five. I know you know them, I think you love them, and I hope you will welcome them with reverence and applause.

Assistant Intro

There's no Santa Claus without his little Elf. He's sitting here: Mark Le Fêvre. It's funny that I get to mention this around this lovely holidays: Le Fêvre is French and means 'Porridge Bowl Licker'.

Taskmaster's Sign-off

All that’s left to say is what a bunny once said to me during Easter. He looked me straight in the eye and said, ‘Merry Christmas!’

Winner notes

Eva wins the special thanks to Sebastian Klein who, in the final round of the live task, switches his decision about which tree to take, specifically in order to ensure that she could finally win an episode.

Although she has the same number of points as Martin, after winning the live task, Lasse states that she won the episode based on the show's tie-breaking rule, wherein ties are broken based on how many tasks the contestants have won.
