The five stars appearing in this year’s Taskmaster’s New Year Treat have been revealed

Channel 4 has announced the names of those appearing in Taskmaster’s New Year Treat, and only moments after Taskmaster series 20 ended in a dramatic three-way tie, needing a tie-break.

Who is in this year’s Taskmaster’s New Year Treat

Inviting five radically different famous faces from all corners of the entertainment world, the mighty Greg Davies will score the efforts of these stars as Little Alex Horne diligently keeps track of proceedings. The famous and courageous personalities stepping up to the challenge of impressing the formidable Taskmaster are: BAFTA-winning TV chef and musician Big Zuu (Big Zuu’s Big Eats); former footballer Jill Scott MBE; actress, presenter, and children’s book author Rose Ayling-Ellis MBE (Code of Silence); BRIT-nominated singer, songwriter and musician Sam Ryder; and lexicographer, etymologist and presenter Susie Dent (Countdown, 8 Out 10 Cats Does Countdown).

Of these five incredibly special guests, only one can win the annual bunfight for Greg Davies’s coveted Golden Eyebrows trophy.

Dates for this year’s treat will be revealed in due course.
