Junior Taskmaster UK

Junior Taskmaster UK is a version of the Taskmaster UK format, aimed at and featuring children aged between 9 and 11, which was commissioned by Channel 4.

The show is hosted by Rose Matafeo (as the Taskmaster), and Mike Wozniak (as her assistant), and is structured as a tournament, with the first five episodes of each series featuring five new contestants, who will compete to qualify for the semi-finals, and then a grand final.

The filmed tasks take place at a different location to the original Taskmaster UK house, and the studio segments are filmed in a different studio, but using the same set.
