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.

"Very well. Okay then Alex, I shall require some assistance. I want you to locate Greg Davies as soon as possible, shouldn't be a problem, just follow the smell of the largest pastry trolley there is in London. Put a phone in his hand with Skype already turned on, as I'm sure he won't know what the fuck he's doing with it, and make sure he frames himself in landscape mode. The rotund misshapen mound he calls a body will never properly fit in portrait mode to see him as we'll need to. And then... let's see we only had twenty minutes to accomplish the task, right, so... yeah, by then he's settled and ready, tell him to begin performing his so called 'standup comedy' act, and barely five minutes should be plenty to convince the audience he's suffered a shameful and humiliating death. Oh and, my condolences Mrs. Davies. Cheers, Alex!" --Rhod Gilbert

The way you worded this implies that Greg died, and then his corpse somehow formally left the show postmortem.

Don't panic everyone, it's an homage, not a tribute. Greg ain't dead.
Given Josh’s diminutive size and the fact he has Greg’s name on him now he just looks like from Toy Story and he is a toy belonging to Greg Davies

Everyone's talking about how scary the title is but I got a lot more scared by the sudden increase in volume between the clips.
Pray for Greg y'all. There's nothing wrong with him, he just wants more power.
The caption should've been "In memory of the Grand Taskmaster, may he rest in peace...it's midnight and he's asleep shhhh."
greg looked like he was going to cry when he was getting gifts from Wem, very heart warming
Josh and his gift is one of the great moments in television history.
The single that Dave gifts Greg at 5:33 ist from a German artist called Howard Carpendale and the title actually means "whom"
