Season 18:
Andy Zaltzman, Babátúndé Aléshé, Emma Sidi, Jack Dee and Rosie Jones search for a seal, hurl yoga balls in a theme park and force-feed Little Alex Horne a bowlful of bubblegum.
Jack Dee has a dramatic wardrobe change, Rosie Jones presents her new baby, and Emma Sidi's got Tamzin Outhwaite on the brain. Plus: multi-headed beasts, and a very dull ghost.
Babátúndé Aléshé almost certainly knows what a rocket is, and Jack Dee's a dead ringer for a famous artist. Greg Davies awards points (some), praise (little) and pity (plenty).
Andy Zaltzman takes a carrot-based risk. Emma Sidi performs some cartwheel tricks. Rosie Jones menaces a member of the crew. Alex Horne rings a bell (or two!)
Greg Davies gags after opening a big jar, Andy Zaltzman makes a robot sing and a blond Jack Dee discusses hedgehogs.
Alex Horne shows off his prowess with pliers. Jack Dee adopts a charismatic New York accent. Emma Sidi enjoys a Taskmaster tipple. Babátúndé Aléshé makes a lovely little otter.
Rosie Jones feels badly let down by her comedy hero Jack Dee, while Babátúndé Aléshé shouts about a fortune cookie. And Andy Zaltzman predicts the end of the world.
Andy Zaltzman dirties Alex Horne's trousers, Emma Sidi reveals a startling belief about socks, Jack Dee does some energetic air cycling, and Babátúndé Aléshé phones a friend.
As the contest goes down to the wire, Jack Dee makes some tense phone calls and Rosie Jones smears brown stuff on a plate. Can Andy Zaltzman shoehorn cricket into another task?
Our five weary contestants compete one last time, in a grand final featuring tiny chairs, giant eggs and a honking Alex Horne. But who'll lift the legendary Taskmaster trophy?
