We're at the halfway mark of the new series, and Jenny and Jack are left with jaws agape. Questions abound: what’s the vibe going to be like on episode 6 after that lamé duck live task? Why does Jenny have inexplicable beef with jelly beans? Where CAN we see Ania's art? (here).

A new week, and a new great episode of Taskmaster for Jack and Jenny to digest. And this week they're asking whether or not Sanjeev does pilates, if Phil could feasibly be the first person to never win a task, and a dentist finally weighs in on the question about human teeth.

Plus, Jack reveals his ranking in the Fantasy Taskmaster league - have you downloaded the app yet to play?

It's the first episode of Series 20! And an episode of firsts, according to Jack and Jenny's observations; first impressions, first time a contestant has touched Greg (?), first time a contestant has caused £40 worth of damage to the set while their trousers fell down, and first time seeing Greg and Alex really panic in what might be the funniest live task ever.

Plus Jenny identifies which contestant has piqued her sartorial interes...

This week it is, in the words of Jack Bernhardt, the 'big series 20 stats dump' - our seasonal pre-emptive effort to size up the new cast from every statistical angle possible, in an effort to try and predict who will win this next series.

This week we're taking it right back to the beginning, the big bang of the Taskmaster universe, the very first official episode of Taskmaster UK, in an effort to see how things have changed (or not changed) since the beginning of Taskmaster time. Plus, Jack’s had a think about who he’d want to be on Taskmaster with and... has Jenny goofed?!

Next week Jack and Jenny anticipate series 20 with what Jack calls 'his big stats dump'...

This week we're revisiting what is possibly Jenny's most laugh-out-loud episode of Taskmaster yet, including talks about one of the funniest things Jenny’s seen happen under a table, when to call 'the chaps' in for mice, and one listener writes in midway through his first child’s birth to alert us to a goof. 

Plus - should Taskmaster do a one off episode for character comedians? Jack and Jenny offer their dream cast of competit...

This week our homework comes from a listener who wanted Jenny and Jack to re-live Greg's best moments of being angry at everyone, and Victoria Coren-Mitchell's complete misunderstanding of a task assignment.

Also we have a new Jason Mantzoukas vs Nish Kumar comparison, and a new Patatas goof to unpack for next week's homework.

This week Jenny and Jack take a trip back to series 4, episode 4 to find out if Greg and Hugh had beef, discuss the most surprising thing Noel could wear, and debate whether five tasks in one episode is too many.

This week Jenny and Jack are joined by three very special guests from the UK Taskmaster production team: Amy, Andrew and Clarenz! We saw their faces a lot in series 19, but in this chat we get to hear lots of fun behind the scenes stories; from the damage done by a certain 'destroy, dismantle, engulf in flames' motto to bringing the WOW monster to life to the secret behind the number 2851 and which moments the crew struggled most w...

Series 19 may be done, but in Jenny's words it's not dusted! This week Jack brings you his big series 19 stats debrief, including a look at how Mat’s stats stack up against the rest of the recent champions, who is technically the most balanced contestant this series, which historical taskmaster record Stevie broke, Fatiha’s final ‘bruv’ count, a surprising history of the 'high-five' and some musings on the state of Jason's house.
