New Year's Treat 2024
Episode title context
Kojey Radical utters the word “Huh?” in confusion, after reading the brief for the ‘Make everything pop at the same time’ task.
Special synopsis
The New Year's Treat 2024 special, featuring contestants Deborah Meaden, Kojey Radical, Lenny Rush, Steve Backshall, and Zoe Ball, aired on 2 January 2024.
The studio recording session took place on 27 November 2023.
In this festive special, the contestants must: bring in the most fun thing to carry into a room full of strangers; eat a stack of poppadoms while either complimenting Greg, or insulting Alex; draw themselves on a tablet eating fruit, without touching the screen with their hands; make a bunch of different things pop around the same time; and guess whether a series of objects will fit through a series of holes.
Assistant Intro
And next to me is a man who confided in me that his ritual for New Year is simple: on the 12th day, he takes down his Christmas decorations; and on the 13th day, he takes whatever awful gift his in-laws have bought him to a charity shop.
Special prize
The prize up for grabs in this special is a trophy featuring Greg's golden eyebrows.
Taskmaster's Sign-off
Have yourselves a brilliant year, and we'll see you again very soon. For now, here's the winner of this special night – it’s Lenny!
