Channel 4’s reliably ridiculous “Taskmaster” returns this Thursday with “Midnight Picnic,” an episode that looks like it brings the usual mix of absurd challenges and unpredictable contestant behavior.
Expect the unexpected as Greg Davies might regret his bold trouser-based claim, Stevie Martin finds herself punching a mannequin, and Jason Mantzoukas gets up close and personal with raisins and a small hole. Meanwhile, Mathew Baynton strikes a pose for the ages, Fatiha El-Ghorri puts on a theatrical performance, and Little Alex Horne becomes embroiled in Rosie Ramsey’s trouser troubles.
It’s another round of “profoundly important tasks” (as only “Taskmaster” can deliver), presided over by Greg Davies and facilitated by the ever-patient Alex Horne. Tune in to Channel 4 this Thursday, 22 May at 9:00 PM GMT for the inevitable mayhem.
