Калев (2022)

Greg Davies and Alex Horne return for a new series as Ania Magliano, Maisie Adam, Phil Ellis, Reece Shearsmith and Sanjeev Bhaskar compete to win Greg's affection and his head.

Sanjeev Bhaskar rotates around a hill of flour, Maisie Adam's mouth pokes through the Taskmaster's nose, and Little Alex Horne introduces Little Little Alex Horne to the world.

Ania Magliano can't tell snakes and worms apart, Maisie Adam relies heavily on the lyrics to Mambo No 5, and Reece Shearsmith gets irrationally angry in a game of chance.

Maisie Adam and Phil Ellis are repulsed by olives, while Reece Shearsmith's mystified by a voice note. And Alex Horne regrets giving Ania Magliano access to his phone...

Maisie Adam sees red, Phil Ellis strips to his base layer and Reece Shearsmith destroys a valuable treasure. The Taskmaster maintains order, with authority in good measure.

Ania Magliano lassos a weathervane. Sanjeev Bhaskar fails to crush an egg. Phil Ellis's sunny disposition costs him dear. Plus: a chopsticks ladder, and a new low.

Ania Magliano spews up some blue jelly, Sanjeev Bhaskar requests a comfort break and Maisie Adam squawks like an exotic bird, while Alex Horne gets to wear an important hat!

Alex Horne gets to oversee his favourite sort of task: one involving mystery, ducks and annoyed contestants. Reece Shearsmith balances on one leg for an impressively long time.

The scores are tight and the tasks are chaotic as Alex Horne dons his jockey silks, Phil Ellis and Ania Magliano endanger the crew, and Maisie Adam forgets the rules. Again.

The Final. As the closest-ever series of Taskmaster draws to an exhilarating finish, all five shipmates are still in with a genuine chance of bagging the trophy. But mutiny's in the air!
