Series 18, Episode 1 - The Faceless Facilitators
Greg Davies and his faultlessly loyal assistant Alex Horne welcome five fairly fresh bodies for a crack at TV's greatest prize: Greg's disembodied head, painted gold and stuck to a plinth. Andy Zaltzman, Babátúndé Aléshé, Emma Sidi, Jack Dee and Rosie Jones attempt to impress the Taskmaster by searching for a seal, hurling yoga balls in a theme park, and force-feeding Alex a bowlful of bubblegum.
