It's back with season 15 on Thursday, 30th March! Looking forward to it and seeing how Frankie Boyle does and can definitely see Greg mercilessly bullying Ivo Graham. I can't wait! 
Anyone else a fan?  |

Yay! Can't wait. Some seasons weren't the best but it's such enjoyable light watching. Plus Greg Davies is sexy*. In a very inexplicable way.
*look, it's fab. Can't have a thread without some sort of objectification. |

I'm told I bear than more than a passing resemblance to Greg Davies.
Why he wasn't more popular, and by extension why I wasn't more popular on here, when I was single is a rage I get on a regular basis

"I fucking love Taskmaster!
Mike Wozniak is a treasure and should be treated as such!"
Love Mike Wozniak. The smallest changes of facial expression, the way he has of talking. Sheer genius. |

Meli! I'm so disappointed and wish I could say this was out of character for you! But I do agree, he's definitely got that authoritative headmaster look to him |

"Greg Davies is sex on legs.
My favourites are the Ed Gamble and also Liza Tarbuck series.
Not sure i can watch Frankie Boyle but I’ll give it a go."
I haven't seen much of Frankie recently but think he'll be great. I think he mentioned his kids had been pestering him to do it! |

"I binge watched all previous 14 seasons in about 2 weeks earlier in the year when I was ill. Can't wait for the new season!"
That's really good going that! I watched it all during lockdown and one of the few bright spots during that period for me!  |

Mr"
I always thought he was quite popular among women, it may be a recent thing where women have a thing for older men (no offence!  ) |

"Favourite season has to be Rhod Gilbert's, his prize task entries were amazing and just the way he found loopholes in pretty much everything... genius!"
That's my favourite season too! The cast was perfect and all brought their own unique spin to things. James Acaster is one of my favourites and was devastated for his hula hoop attempt  |

Wait, what? What, wait? I loved last season, especially when Dara seemed exasperated by Fearn and John on his team |

That was the first time I came across Mike Wozniak and think he's one of the most loved contestants with so many great moments. Tick tock it's tough guy o'clock, you've got not chutzpah, and my favourite, it's an absolute casserole down there |

None taken 
He might be popular, it's just not having a knock on effect. Or not yet, anyway  |

"I went out with a woman who claimed to have shagged Greg Davies. Apparently he’s all in proportion."
Isn't he 6 foot 8 inches? Those are two measurements btw |

"Just watched the trailer I have to say not their finest line up but I’m sure Greg and Alex will pull it through  "
I've heard of Frankie Boyle, Ivo Graham and Mae Martin it all depends on how well they mesh together. If they do it well, it could be a great season! |

"My absolute favourite show, always improves my mood.
Even got the book
Not overly excited by this year's line up however that doesn't matter as it always delivers! "
I get what you mean, even if you're not a fan of the cast, there will be so many other components betweent the tasks and Alex, and Greg that it will always be worth watching. |

Brilliant show. I think the earlier seasons were better, but there's always something in every season.
I will never shake Liza Tarbuck getting LAH to sit his bare arse in a cake! Or Sally Phillips shagging a water cooler!
Brilliant television. |

On the Greg Davies is sexy in a very inexplicable way, he's back in the Cleaner starting on 24 March - something alluring about him enhanced by his twisted outlook on life.
And when he was on 'Would I lie to You' with his mum as the 'This is Mine' - that was just brilliant (although having said that Bob Mortimer and his relationship with David Mitchell gets me every time). |

Earlier seasons on Channel 5 were better.
I never thought I'd hear myself say this but the move to Channel 4 has seen in deteriorate somewhat.
I'm not jaded. I absolutely love the concept and the team and I can see the marked difference in task and ingenuity in participants.
My GOD i learned to love Munya Chawawa so much but people like Bridget Christie ....... vomit inducing deliberate stupidity ..... Sophie Duker is so sexy ..
Love Greg..... The Cleaner is coming back too ... If you haven't seen series 1 watch it. |

"Bumping this because it's on tonight! Who's watching?
Thanks for the reminder. Though I'll probably watch on catch up "
Nice! Good thing we live in modern times where we don't have to watch it as soon as it comes on |

I think I’ve watched the whole series for the third time now. Listened to the podcast and it probably is my favourite tv show.
Currently watching the gorgeous and extremely intelligent Victoria Coren Mitchell. When she walks out of a doorway and sees a bicycle, admits she’s never learned, well I’d happily give lessons. |

I know the whole line up ...... they are all great ( not personally know them but I know of them from the circuit ) |

"*SPOILER*
Anyone else not get the string task? Even if they had read the back, wouldn't the task on the front still be valid?"
The idea was to see if people found the loophole around the task. Which two of them did xx |

"*SPOILER*

The task was......
Unravel a ball of string.
Leave a neat ball of string on the cushion.
So no. Doing side one was only half the task and not valid on it's own.

Just read through all the comments surprised no one has mentioned
Joe Wilkinson impressing a mayor with 8 cans of strong lager and 17 Calypos
Mike Wozniak farting out a pile
James Acastar's GTA
Bob Mortimer's special cuddle
Al Murray just buying his way through it |

Ahhh I think I got confused because I thought even if they did the back of the task, the front still tells them to unravel the ball of string. But then I guess the wording on the back saying "you do not have to unravel the ball of string" cancels that out. |

"Loved it. I really want to drive a barge now. Mae Martin is so  . They have the same cutesy appeal as you OP. "
Aw thanks Meli, but I would ruthlessly crush everyone at Taskmaster! Driving that barge looked so fun though! When Ivo hugged Jenny, I thought that was adorable and loved Mae appealing to Greg with her 1kg breakfast |

"I’m not convinced with this lot of contestants "
I always think this about one of the group (Frankie Boyle here; I like him, but just couldn't see him working on it, but he surprised me!) at the start of the series, but they usually quickly grow on me... |

"I have never watched it
Alex Horne irritates the fkin life out of me, so I just can't bring myself to watch"
Is it because he is precocious with his nanny silly schoolboy humour and feigned stupidity ? |

They’re lacking a “hot one” but I enjoyed ep1.
I thought Frankie would be smarter. I wonder if he’s just got a library of clever comebacks memorised, and can’t do the lateral thinking thing. |

I watched the last episode on catch up yesterday, so bumping (hope that's ok, Joe) for end of season analysis...
I was pleased Mae won; I liked them, and am now belatedly watching 'Feel Good'. As always, I grew to love them all and each series develops its own unique feel, that you can't imagine them doing it with any other group of people. Like those weird work training courses where you end up bonding with a random group of people through torturous leadership exercises, despite having never met before. |

No worries at all! I loved this series as well and all the contestants definitely brought their own brand of humour with Kiell making the biggest impression on me. The team of Frankie and Ivo was so juxtaposed as well that it couldn't not be hilarious! |
