We’re super different but we did genuinely get on, even though we were at each other’s throats. There was a mutual respect! I loved sitting next to Kiell the whole time in the studio, he is hilarious. And I loved getting to know Jenny. Her laugh is so contagious and joyous, she made me laugh a lot. Ivo I’ve known for years, and Taskmaster is just the perfect format for his brain. He’s so verbose that he could take a mad task about an egg and distil it into some beautifully constructed aphorism about life. I don’t have that skill.

I particularly enjoyed your reaction whenever you first heard the task. There’s always a real confusion. The task where the contestants have to find out a stranger’s profession but he can’t speak, he can only shake or nod his head incorrectly. Just nice to watch a pleasant old man nod his head at comedians as they silently curse him. 87 Meat feastG: It’s sort of what I thought being a comedian was. I thought we were supposed to make people laugh. There should be a space for pure silliness, and we both like mining that. Was there any particular moment where you caught yourself in the middle of doing the task and thought, “What are we even doing here?” G: I think that’s a perfectly reasonable thing to be surprised about. He’s on it because his children like it.
