Taskmaster

Series 11, Episode 2 - The Lure Of The Treacle Puppies

There's discord between contestants Charlotte Ritchie, Jamali Maddix, Lee Mack, Mike Wozniak and Sarah Kendall as rows erupt over facial hair and Jamali's driving skills. Taskmaster Greg Davies is likely pleased that his usual divide-and-conquer tactics are seemingly paying early dividends, as he watches Mike vaulting a high fence, Sarah wearing shoes on her knees, Charlotte grappling with static electricity and Lee struggling to see a balloon and a ghost. As usual, Alex Horne offers the intrepid contenders moral support.
