Taskmaster Series 17 (2024)

Joanne McNally, John Robins, Nick Mohammed, Sophie Willan and Steve Pemberton kick off their crusade with tasks involving roller blinds, a floating primate and, as is traditional, eggs.

Nick Mohammed sheathes a water bottle with a sock, Sophie Willan attempts to take flight, and John Robins puts his faith in honey, as Taskmaster Greg Davies sits in judgement.

Will Steve Pemberton's no-vowels gamble pay off? What does Nick Mohammed think is going to happen to those eggs? And, most intriguingly, why is Joanne McNally sniffing Little Alex Horne's beard?

All five contestants are forced to wrangle wild animals, with unpleasant results for Steve Pemberton and Sophie Willan. Plus: pickled onions, and a controversial cardboard tube.

Steve Pemberton experiments with G-force, Sophie Willan splatters a human pigeon and Joanne McNally rocks a traffic cone. In other news, Nick Mohammed gets trapped under a bed.

As the bonce-battle intensifies, Steve Pemberton delivers a timely message of peace. Meanwhile, Joanne McNally invents a catchphrase, and John Robins gets creative with beans.

Sophie Willan shouts the name of a body part in Alex Horne's flustered face. John Robins demonstrates the power of his forearms. And can Joanne McNally act out the word 'beer'?

Greg Davies has witnessed many bizarre moments during his time as the Taskmaster, but this episode ups the ante - from oars for arms to a beatboxing wolf. And why won't Nick Mohammed stop winking?!

Little Alex Horne risks raising Greg Davies' hackles with a task in celebration of himself. Steve Pemberton has an expletive-laden row with a bin. Plus: a novel use for a cow's ear.

It's the grand final! But before a new champion gets the honour of clutching Greg Davies' gilded bonce to their proud chest, Nick Mohammed makes a magical prediction...
