Taskmaster: Champion of Champions, Episode 2 - review

Helped by Josh Widdicombe singing the theme tune (for no points), tonight we find out who is greatest champion of all.

Taskmaster: Greg Davies and Alex Horne interview

Taskmaster is called the game show with a difference - which is an understatement and then some.

David Stephenson, The Daily Express, 17th December 2017

Just last month, Bob Mortimer was crowned fifth season champion of Taskmaster. But now the man who so emphatically demonstrated he could tear an apple into perfect halves with his bare hands must compete in a two-part tournament against previous victors Josh Widdicombe, Katherine Ryan, Noel Fielding and Rob Beckett, all to determine who is the ultimate master of tasks. As ever, Greg Davies both officiates and castigates.

Taskmaster: Champion of Champions, Episode 1 review

The very best people at doing pointless tasks have returned to see who is the best of all.

Man Down review

The end of the fourth series of Man Down had plenty to get your teeth into, with chaos, comedy and pathos all thrown in.

Should comedians change their act for different times?

Should Greg Davies' show have started with a trigger warning for anyone that might have been traumatised by a GP?

Comedy review: Greg Davies at the Eventim Apollo, W6

There is a new coarseness at play in this show, a diminution of the sense of generosity that used to make Davies such delicious company.

Dominic Maxwell, The Times, 21st November 2017

Greg Davies review

Supremely silly stand-up shouts the unsayable. In an exuberant new show, Davies scrutinises his own ridiculousness and goes from outre stories about his mum to a musical tribute to his dad.

Brian Logan, The Guardian, 17th November 2017

Greg Davies review

A strong return for Davies and a reassertion of what a powerful live comic he is, but there's a bit too much filler for my liking.

Paul Fleckney, London Is Funny, 17th November 2017

Greg Davies, comedy review

The 6ft 8in comedian hits the comic heights by being "a dirty boy", writes Bruce Dessau.
