Taskmaster 2021 episodes

Episode 1 – 18 March
In this first episode, we meet our merry band of comics, and Alex records the key details as pests are controlled and plates are delivered.

Episode 2 – 25 March
In the second episode, there’s discord between the contestants as rows erupt over facial hair and Jamali Maddix’s driving skills. The Taskmaster is likely pleased that his usual divide-and-conquer tactics are paying early dividends, as he watches Mike Wozniak vaulting a high fence, Sarah Kendall wearing shoes on her knees, Charlotte Ritchie grappling with static electricity, and Lee Mack struggling to see a balloon and a ghost.

Episode 3 – 1 April
In the third episode, Lee attempts an audacious hammer throw, Sarah makes sitting down memorable, and Jamali forgets his passport.

Episode 4 – 8 April
Charlotte Ritchie climbs a ladder with some loo roll, Mike Wozniak tries out a new catchphrase, and Lee Mack terrifies an innocent member of the public. Meanwhile, Alex Horne has greased a lot of bottles this week

Episode 5 – 15 April
In the fifth episode, Lee Mack raises serious questions around the use of cling film, Charlotte Ritchie anoints an insect, and Jamali Maddix nearly chokes on a many-sided dessert.

Episode 6 – 22 April
In the sixth episode, Jamali Maddix decorates the caravan, Sarah Kendall is appalled by a kiwi fruit and, under severe pressure, Mike Wozniak delivers a revelation so visceral that it leaves everyone in a state of horrified delirium.

Episode 7 – 29 April
In the seventh episode, there are fires and alarms – though not at the same time. Little Alex Horne is forced to sup cold soup, Lee Mack attacks a toy vole, and Sarah Kendall invents a sweet dressing for an unusual salad. Meanwhile, Charlotte Ritchie provides surprising sound effects for a set of Russian dolls.

Episode 8 – 6 May
As the final draws closer, the contestants are hoping beyond hope to score points by creatively munching on snacks (Charlotte Ritchie), drawing pretty wings (Jamali Maddix) and being brutally honest about emergency plane landings (Lee Mack). Little Alex Horne watches it all unfold and makes neat notes for his Taskmaster Daddy.

Episode 9 – 13 May
In the semi final of sorts, all five comic contestants still harbour hopes of winning Greg’s splendid gilded head, even if those hopes range from ‘high’ (in the case of Sarah Kendall) to ‘forlorn’ (Charlotte Ritchie). Meanwhile, Lee Mack has a makeover, Jamali Maddix gets destructive with some rubble, and Mike Wozniak warns Alex about some potentially dangerous dairy produce.

Episode 10 – 20 May – FINAL
The most coveted prize in television – Greg Davies’ golden head nestled on a spike – awaits one weary but jubilant competitor. For the other four, well, just a dark abyss where their careers used to be. In the last batch of tasks, Charlotte Ritchie stumbles into some sand, Lee Mack dunks Little Alex Horne, and Sarah Kendall stacks fish fingers. Meanwhile, Jamali Maddix staggers around a bit, and Mike Wozniak staggers absolutely everyone – again.
