Taskmaster Champion of Champions airs at 9pm, Sunday 14th January on Channel 4
Taskmaster winners reunite to compete for the ultimate prize.
WEBWIRE â Wednesday, January 3, 2024
In the aftermath of a festive celebrity Taskmasters New Year Treat special, the time has come for overlord Greg Davies to beckon previous winners of series 11 to 15 to return to the scene of the greatest triumph of their lives and battle once more in a brand-new Champion of Champions tournament, adjudicated by the PA of PAs, Little Alex Horne. This brand-new one-off special will air at 9pm on Sunday 14th January on Channel 4.
Former champs DaraBriain, Morgana Robinson, Sarah Kendall and Sophie Duker square off in a one-off face off hoping to be crowned Champion of Champions. One of them will cart home the ultimate prize of Greg Daviess buff body forged in gold – unless history is made by late substitute and lucky runner-up Kiell Smith-Bynoe, who could become the first ever non-Champion of Champions.
Much will depend on stupidity, hat-hurling and clapping. Little Alex Horne can barely contain himself.
