Channel 4’s Taskmaster is back with a bang for its 20th season, and the newly announced cast promises a riot of laughs and chaos. The BAFTA-winning show, hosted by Greg Davies and Alex Horne, will feature a diverse mix of comedy veterans and rising stars, all vying for the coveted Taskmaster crown.
 
The five contestants confirmed are:
  • Ania Magliano – Acclaimed stand-up and writer for Frankie Boyle’s New World Order and Chicken Shop Date
  • Maisie Adam – Panel show regular and Soccer Aid star, known for Mock the Week and QI

  • Reece Shearsmith – Co-creator of Inside No. 9 and The League of Gentlemen
  • Sanjeev Bhaskar – Star of Goodness Gracious Me, The Kumars at No. 42, and Unforgotten
While the air date is yet to be confirmed, fans can expect the usual blend of absurd challenges, deadpan judging, and comedic brilliance when the show returns—likely in September 2025.
