Taskmaster Series 7 - Most SAVAGE Insults & Comebacks

 

Taskmaster UK is a comedy panel show where five comedians compete in a series of strange and often deliberately pointless challenges set by Greg Davies, who plays the Taskmaster, with Alex Horne acting as his assistant and overseeing the tasks. Each episode sees the contestants attempting creative solutions to absurd problems, with points awarded based on performance, humour and occasional randomness from the Taskmaster’s judgement. Across a series, the tasks range from physical challenges to mental puzzles and improvised chaos, with the aim of collecting the most points to win the series prize.

Featuring James Acaster, Jessica Knappett, Kerry Godliman, Phil Wang, and Rhod Gilbert.

Comedian MARK WATSON Creates His Ultimate Taskmaster Episode


We're always seeing him do cool stuff - including this. Series 5 runner-up Mark Watson is back at the TM house to make his perfect patchwork quilt of tasks from his time on the show.

Mark Watson is a British comedian and author known for his energetic, often self-deprecating storytelling style and unusually long-form stand-up shows that can stretch for hours with heavy audience interaction. He studied at Cambridge University and began his comedy career at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, where he quickly established himself as a distinctive voice and regular award-nominated performer. Alongside stand-up, he has appeared on television panel shows such as Taskmaster and Mock the Week, and has written several novels that combine humour with observational fiction. His work tends to blend personal anecdotes with reflections on modern life, delivered with a restless, improvisational rhythm that sets him apart from more traditional stand-up styles.
