The Taskmaster Champion has been crowned! Season 21 had its final tonight (11 June) and while Joel Dommett won the episode, it was Gavin & Stacey’s Joanna Page who took home the title of Taskmaster Champion with 149 points. <\/p>\n

Following behind her with 145 points was Kumail Nanjiani, with Amy Gledhill receiving 143, Armando Iannucci awarded 141, and Joel coming in last with 127. <\/p>\n

“I am so glad Joanna won! She\u2019s got to be top 5 most chaotic #Taskmaster contestants ever,” a third commented, while a fourth said: “Congratulations to my queen Joanna.”<\/p>\n

While it might be goodbye to season 21, the lineup for season 22 has been announced<\/a> – and it looks like we are in for one hell of a series. Joining Greg Davies and Alex Horne is Matt Lucas, Richard Ayoade, Isy Suttie, Chloe Petts and Nina Conti. <\/p>\n

People at home were also excited with this new cast. One person said they were “really glad” to see Chloe and Isy on the show, while a second commented: “RICHARD AYOADE AND MATT LUCAS FINALLY ON TASKMASTER HOLY FUCKING SHIT AM I DREAMING????”<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, a third wrote: “That new taskmaster line up\u2026 Wowser. Can\u2019t wait.” <\/p>\n

In March, co-host and series creator Horne confirmed that filming for the 22nd season was almost completed. He also dropped a hint<\/a> that an Oscar winner could be part of a future line-up. <\/p>\n

“I could give you a sneaky bit of information for the distant future. We have got an Oscar winner in a future [season].” he told Radio Times<\/a>. He also told Radio Times<\/a> that he was initially daunted to work with Iannucci, but he ended up fitting right in. <\/p>\n

“He’s a comedy legend and a very clever man, you’d think. Not on Taskmaster! It turns out Armando is an idiot, which is so nice to [know],” he said. “I found him quite daunting to meet and work with, but within five minutes, you realise he’s the same as everyone else – he crumbles under pressure.”<\/p>\n

Taskmaster is available to stream on Channel 4.<\/p>\n
