Series 10 Trailer

Greg Davies and Alex Horne are back for a brand new series of Taskmaster in its brand new home on Channel 4.

Featuring: Greg Davies & Alex Horne.

This trailer pokes fun at the fact that the show was originally developed for Channel 4 before being picked up by Dave where it aired for nine successful series.

The network says: "Holding court on their gleaming thrones for the first time on Channel 4 will be Greg Davies as the incomparable and all-powerful Taskmaster, and Alex Horne as his faithful sidekick and general dogsbody."

Hoping to impress the Taskmaster with their creative ingenuity and be crowned the next champion are: BAFTA winning actress and writer Daisy May Cooper; acclaimed comedian, writer and director Johnny Vegas; BAFTA winning actress Katherine Parkinson; comedian and actor Mawaan Rizwan; and comedian, multi-award-winning podcaster and writer Richard Herring.

"Wax seals will open, dreams will be made and/or broken, and Little Alex Horne will be wrapped around his master's little finger providing stats and moral support in the most ridiculous and ferociously fought game show on television."

Series 10 starts in October.
