Yoghurt-soaked shoes. Unlikely fishing friendships. Downton Abbey fantasies. It can only be Taskmaster. The absurd competition returns to Channel 4 Thursday, 12 June at 10:05 PM GMT with Glass Half Most (Season 19, Episode 7), and it’s shaping up to be another gloriously chaotic hour of pointless pursuits.
This week’s lineup finds Jason Mantzoukas trying his hand at angling camaraderie, while Rosie Ramsey apparently masters the art of trotting. Meanwhile, poor Little Alex Horne finds his footwear on the receiving end of a yoghurt-related incident—one of those Taskmaster moments destined to live on in infamy.
With Greg Davies back in his judgmental throne, expect the usual mix of creative ingenuity and spectacular failure. Mathew Baynton waves goodbye to any last shred of dignity, Fatiha El-Ghorri champions her seductive scent, and Stevie Martin throws her hat in the ring for a role in Downton Abbey – though her acting choices likely wouldn’t pass muster with the Crawley family.
Taskmaster delivers pure, unadulterated silliness. Tune in Thursday to see who comes out on top – and whose yoghurt-soaked shoes end up in the Taskmaster Hall of Shame.
Taskmaster airs Thursday at 10:05 PM GMT on Channel 4.
