In this Broadcast Award-winning, BAFTA and Emmy Award-nominated entertainment show, Taskmaster tyrant Greg Davies (Man Down, Cuckoo), with the help of his loyal assistant Alex Horne (The Horne Section and the show’s creator), sets out to test the wiles, wit and wisdom of five hyper-competitive comedians.

Comedians that have risked life, limb, and dignity in the hope of making the Taskmaster proud so far include: Frank Skinner (The Frank Skinner Show), Mel Giedroyc (The Great British Bake Off), Romesh Ranganathan (Asian Provocateur), Hugh Dennis (Outnumbered), Sally Phillips (Bridget Jones’ Diary), Rose Matafeo (Edinburgh Comedy Award Winner 2018), and Russell Howard (The Russell Howard Hour). Unaware of what awaits them in each wax-sealed envelope, only one competitor can become the victorious owner of His Royal Task-ness’ golden head and be crowned the next Taskmaster Champion.

For Paul's doppleganger, it would've been amazing to cameo Little Alex Horne!

[nannyalberte]

My favorite thing about the NZ version of Taskmaster is how wholesome it is and how it pisses off people who still don't understand Taskmaster

[bernardobuffa]

Josh doppelgänger made my day, dude LOL

[JacktheRah]

That Josh and Josh scene had me wheezing. Absolutely hilarious.

[StevenBanks]

I enjoyed the way they structure the “thank you” task reveal. Very well done.

[basils]

Justine was absolutely serving during the live portion of this ep!

edit: i wrote this before the doppelganger reveal, just thought she decided to serve c*nt one show, and i support it.

[Laggerslam]

this stage task, was one of the BEST out of all Taskmaster!

[tehjoch]

that kura doppelganger was surprisingly accurate

[brianm]

For the NZrs out there:

What, the HECK do you try to catch with a torpedo of squid???

[zhuofanzhang]

They're such a wholesome group that nobody thought to sabotage the painting of whoever's being tagged

[homagetogorto]

This is the start of a legendary story arc. So looking forward to watching this unfold again!

[WondrousPurple]

I loved every task in this episode. There's a lot of fun, playful, silly humor throughout -- my favorite kind. :) And all of the winning bits were a delight. (I do wish Justine got 6 points for the doppelgänger task -- it was a standout.)

[fgjhham]

Wow! Justine's studio outfit is amazing. So extravagant.

[littlelistmaker]

This episode begins my favorite set of tasks in the entire series of taskmaster. I love this season so much.

[mysticwolf]

Speaking of Doppelgängers, does anyone else think Jeremy Wells looks a bit like John Cena?

[barrytelium]

This tag self-portrait live task was incredible!

[CristinaB]

I've stopped watching the Olympic Games opening ceremony for this. Best decision ever!

[davidconnell]

I am so glad that NZ is on the other side of the world, because it means we have TM to watch in this time of year! Kia ora.

The best buddy tasks is probably one of if not my favourite task saga in the series. Especiallx the pay of at the final one. Wished they would do more callback tasks in taskmaster

[bobtheskutterbot]

At the start of the episode, I wondered why Josh was dressed as Ray O'Leary. Fantastic. (I watched this series before- I just didn't know who Ray O'Leary was at the time).
