Taskmaster

Taskmaster returns with Al Murray, Dave Gorman, Paul Chowdhry, Rob Beckett and Sara Pascoe all set to do battle for the Taskmaster trophy. Greg Davies is back in charge with assistance from trusty Alex Horne and this series kicks off with vegetable propulsion, an out-of-season snowman called Scoopy and some swede-on-Swede action.

Greg Davies uses his position of power to make the five comics compete in more ludicrous tasks. In this second episode, find out why Dave Gorman has come over all bitey, why Rob Beckett has filled a shoebox with cement and, most importantly, who surprises Alex Horne the most when he emerges from his shed after an hour cooped up inside.

As the series reaches its midway point, Greg Davies's onslaught of tasks don't get any easier. When Al Murray is confronted with an eggcup he goes to extreme lengths to maximise his point potential and Sara Pascoe takes a simple loaf of bread, a few balloons and swiftly becomes one of the greatest sporting minds of our time.

In the penultimate episode of the series, the five comedians try to impress Taskmaster Greg Davies by giving an item of clothing to a passing cyclist, whispering at an old man called Hugh and creating some very special effects. Meanwhile, Paul Chowdhry continues to interpret tasks in his unique way.

It's the series finale and Greg Davies needs several questions answered before awarding the winner with the Taskmaster trophy... Who has the most handsome relative? How much money is Al Murray willing to spend to win? And why is Rob Beckett in such a strop with a melon, some frozen peas and a bag of flour?
