Taskmaster Intro

I’m Greg Davies, and welcome to Taskmaster. It’s episode six, and, unlike any of the meals my mother served me throughout my childhood, things are really hotting up. They’ve proved themselves to be resilient, clever, and, unlike any of the food fed to me up until the age of 18, they have just the right amount of spice. Even some salt would’ve helped, for god’s sake, old woman. Put some salt in! It tastes of nothing!

Assistant Intro

And next to me, a man who told me privately that for him, sex is like Christmas: once a year, and involves the death of a turkey. It’s little Alex Horne!
