In this Broadcast Award-winning, BAFTA and Emmy Award-nominated entertainment show, Taskmaster tyrant Greg Davies (Man Down, Cuckoo), with the help of his loyal assistant Alex Horne (The Horne Section and the show’s creator), sets out to test the wiles, wit and wisdom of five hyper-competitive comedians.
Comedians that have risked life, limb, and dignity in the hope of making the Taskmaster proud so far include: Frank Skinner (The Frank Skinner Show), Mel Giedroyc (The Great British Bake Off), Romesh Ranganathan (Asian Provocateur), Hugh Dennis (Outnumbered), Sally Phillips (Bridget Jones’ Diary), Rose Matafeo (Edinburgh Comedy Award Winner 2018), and Russell Howard (The Russell Howard Hour). Unaware of what awaits them in each wax-sealed envelope, only one competitor can become the victorious owner of His Royal Task-ness’ golden head and be crowned the next Taskmaster Champion.

I just looked up Plucka Duck and it is not a kids show, as I assumed, but it's like the Price is Right on speed. l would never have suspected that it is an adult game show with this mascot. It looks like a very weird show indeed, but kinda fun with some very frenetic duck energy.

It was a small segment of a larger show called Hey Hey It's Saturday, a sort of variety show of music, comedy, celebrity guests, like the kid's shows on Saturday Mornings that the UK used to have, but louder and stupider meant for teens and adults.

No it wasn’t a children’s show, but it was a family friendly show on prime time. I loved Plucka Dug as a child. My parents would call me in when Plucka’s segment came on and I would run in to watch. I had a Plucka Duck toy and I loved him. I honestly haven’t thought about Plucka Duck in 25 years.

As an Australian I have no idea where Mr Blobby originates from, I’ve only seen him as a reference in various British comedies. And I doubt Brits know about Plucka Duck - he Is Australian. Actually I doubt any Australians under the age of 30 know who he is. Hasn’t been on TV this century.

According to an interview given by John Blackman in 2009, Plucka was originally played by Mark McGahan, but was replaced by "Sim" for the reunion specials. "Sim" appears to refer to Simon Lefebvre. Also, Plucka Duck had its own show, Plucka's Place.
