Taskmaster Greg Davies has once again gathered five famous faces from radically different specialities for another standalone special on Channel 4 with ‘Taskmaster’s New Year Treat’.

Following the crowning of the latest champion Morgana Robinson, BAFTA winning show Taskmaster reveals the brand-new series 13 line-up featuring five courageous comedians eagerly waiting their turn to step into the Taskmaster’s house and show their mettle in the most hard-fought but utterly ridiculous show on television.
Following last Thursday night's c**k up when C4 aired the edited version of Taskmaster with the swearing bleeped out, the team has put together a compilation of those missing swears.
The incorrect first edition of the new series featured this season's contestants Alan Davies, Morgana Robinson, Victoria Coren Mitchell, Guz Khan and Desiree Burch.
Plus Taskmaster-in-chief Greg Davies and Alex Horne.
Taskmaster returned to Channel 4 on Thursday but faced complaints on Twitter over the swearing - or rather the lack of it.
Viewers appeared to be irate over the apparent absence of expletives, which were dinged and bleeped out during the broadcast, even though it aired after the 9pm watershed.
Producer Andy Cartwright tweeted a brief explanation towards the end of the broadcast: "Wrong version of Taskmaster played I’m afraid. Oops. Ding happens."
The first trailer for the new series of Taskmaster has been revealed.
Welcome to the race. It’s not a race against the clock, that would be far easier. Clocks can be fast, but clocks never win races. It’s nearly always humans. Sometimes horses. Occasionally dogs.
This is a race against your fellow Taskmaster players. You are competing against everyone else who is reading this book.
All you’ve got to do is find The Taskmaster’s Head first.
In the wake of another heroically fought task tournament, BAFTA winning and International Emmy nominated Taskmaster has revealed a new host of comedy minds signing up for a fresh round of surreal challenges, placing themselves under the scrutiny of Taskmaster Greg Davies, and the watchful eye of his obedient assistant Little Alex Horne.
The news arrives as Sarah Kendall was crowned as series 11 champion with Mike Wozniak a very close second.
Taskmaster has become a huge television success. The unique game show in which comedians have to perform increasingly silly stunts such as play golf with a potato or get a random 55-year-old to high five them in a shopping centre has become a worldwide hit. The format, originally created by co-host Alex Horne, has been sold to 170 countries at the last count and nominated for so many awards it is hard to keep up. This Thursday it is back for its eleventh series.
