The highly anticipated finale of yet another season of the beloved comedy show, Taskmaster, has finally arrived. After weeks of side-splitting laughter and nail-biting tension, the new Taskmaster winner has been officially crowned. This season's lineup included the talented Joanne McNally, Nick Mohammed from Ted Lasso, acting legend Steve Pemberton, comedian John Robins, and Sophie Willan from Alma's Not Normal. Throughout the season, we've watched these amazing contestants take on some truly wild and outrageous challenges, all while being hilariously judged by the Taskmaster himself, Greg Davies, and his faithful assistant, Alex Horne.
The 17th season of Taskmaster, which aired on Channel 4 in March, has now come to an end, and the winner has been revealed. John Robins emerged victorious, walking away with the coveted bust of Greg trophy. Nick Mohammed finished in last place with 131 points, followed by Sophie in fourth, Steve in third, and Joanne as the runner-up. Interestingly, Sophie had never won an episode until the final one of the series, where she celebrated her victory by twerking. However, her dress may have twerked a little too hard, resulting in a hilarious farewell moment from the season.
Fans of the show took to social media to express their sadness that another season had come to an end. Many shared their favorite moments and contestants from the series, with one user writing, "I'm gonna miss seeing Sophie on my screen every week." Others discussed the season on Reddit, praising the show's "nice" panel of contestants. "I've really enjoyed it," said one user. "It's lower energy due to everyone being very nice in the studio, but there were lots of very funny moments throughout." Another added, "I went into this series not knowing any of them, but each one has such a fun personality, and I love how they've all been ganging up on poppet when talking about his presents. There are a lot of little gems in the series."
But the fun doesn't have to end with the finale. Fans can now look forward to participating in Taskmaster themselves through the live experience, launching in the autumn. The ballot for tickets will be drawn on June 18th, with general sale beginning on June 21st. Fans can also sign up to be automatically entered into the ballot before the deadline.
