Taskmaster season 15: Release date, cast and how to watch

If you’re craving a bit of extra Taskmaster in your life, you’re in for a treat.

Greg Davies and his dutiful sidekick Alex Horne are set to star in the brand-new one-off special Taskmaster’s New Year Treat that returns to Channel 4 this winter for its third installment.

Amelia Dimoldenberg, Carol Vorderman, Greg James, Sir Mo Farah and Rebecca Lucy Taylor (aka Self Esteem), are all also billed to appear in the show.

But, if you fancy even more comedy gold where that came from, you’ll be glad to hear Season 15 is anticipated to air in early 2023, and the live studio recordings have already taken place.

The identities of the cast have also been revealed and viewers are extremely excited.

So who will star in the forthcoming series of Taskmaster?

Here’s everything you need to know.

Who is in the cast of Taskmaster season 15?

As the latest series of Taskmaster comes to a close, the team has revealed a brand-new line-up of contestants who are set to compete in season 15 of the critically acclaimed task tournament.

Davies will resume his role as the formidable Taskmaster, accompanied by Horne who is poised and ready to provide stats, data and any other moral support that’s required.

The pair will be joined by TV host Frankie Boyle, stand-up comedian Ivo Graham, award-winning comedian Jenny Eclair, actor and writer Kiell Smith-Bynoe, and award-winning Canadian comedian, actor, writer and producer Mae Martin.

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.

How can I watch Taskmaster’s New Year Treat?

Taskmaster’s New Year Treat is set to air on Channel 4, on January 1, 2023.
