That doesn’t inspire me with much confidence. Sometimes though they are the best series.

I'm ambivalent towards Chris, and I don't know Bridget or Sophie, but I love Ardal and Judi. Should be a good one.

Not sure about the Día de Los Muertos theme, though.

Deserved champion but I was hoping Guz would win as he's strawberry floating hilarious.

I too wanted Guz to win.

I think Chris Ramsey will be decent on taskmaster. It seems like his kind of show.

Anyone know if the next champions of champions has an air date yet? I assume it will be around Xmas. Sadly it’s only one episode but does at least have a studio audience again.

I would like to see them do a second chance special, invite back people who didn’t win previously but were hilarious on the show.

I don't think they've announced a date, but it's bound to be between Christmas and New Year.

I'd love a loser of losers episode, but I think they've ruled that out.

Great series from start to finish, absolutely loved this cast. I cant see how the next can match it but Im looking forward to it none the less.

I reckon that’s a good lineup. Bridget Christie in particular can be superbly sardonic, so should be great. The only one I have reservations about is Sophie Duker. She can be very funny, but I saw her on Question Team and she came across as a complete gooseberry fool: obnoxiously dismissive of Johnny Vegas, unwilling to look silly or make fun of herself, and basically the kind of person for whom woke-as-an-insult was invented. I can’t see her being good on Taskmaster.

Desiree’s performance on the drinking task was most impressive. I tried it myself and took 35 seconds.

Interested to hear how you get on with it - I was done after three episodes.

The tasks aren't interesting enough to sustain my interest whilst keeping the cast the same.

I liked it. The only thing that felt weird was doing all of the task assessments together at the end of each show.

Jamali’s camouflage in episode 3 was utter genius. It was so tense, hoping he wouldn’t get found.

And that single point was only because Morgana was rude to Alex at the start of the series. :lol:

Pretty enjoyable show, wouldn’t have been a bad cast for a whole series.

I particularly liked Leshurr referencing Beyblade out of nowhere, and Jonnie cracking the task only to go and knock over the vinegar.

Leshurr deciding to use a task as an excuse to have salmon for lunch was a highlight for me.
