Frankie Boyle, Ivo Graham, Jenny Éclair, Kiell Smith-Bynoe and Mae Martin have been revealed as the comedians taking part in Series 15 of Taskmaster.

The news was announced as the fourteenth series of the format concluded on Channel 4.

Producers confirm: "As the sun sets on the latest series of the international hit show, Taskmaster reveals a brand-new line-up of contestants who are set to compete in the 15th series of the critically-acclaimed task tournament. The infallible Greg Davies will resume his role as the formidable Taskmaster, accompanied by his faithful sidekick Little Alex Horne who is poised and ready to provide stats, data and occasional comfort in the most bizarre yet cut-throat show on television.

"The pair will adjudicate, praise and scorn accordingly the efforts of comedian and TV host Frankie Boyle (Frankie Boyle's New World Order), stand-up comedian Ivo Graham (Have I Got News For You), award-winning comedian Jenny Éclair (Older and Wider), actor and writer Kiell Smith-Bynoe (Ghosts), and award-winning Canadian comedian, actor, writer and producer Mae Martin (Feel Good).

"After 10 episodes, one contestant will emerge victorious, and in their humble hands they will be holding the single greatest prize in the history of television: the Taskmaster's golden head glued to a small plinth."

Taskmaster Series 15 will air on Channel 4 in 2023.

Below is a short teaser trailer:

As previously revealed, 2023 will kick off with a New Year Treat special from the programme. The line-up this time will be comedian Amelia Dimoldenberg, presenter Carol Vorderman, DJ Greg James, sportsperson Sir Mo Farah, and singer Self Esteem.
