British culture has given us many treasures, including Marmite, Greggs, and the iconic TV show Taskmaster. Currently, you can enjoy 20 seasons of Taskmaster on the Channel 4 player, along with the Champion of Champions edition.
If you’re eager for new episodes, get ready for Taskmaster’s New Year Treat, a two-part special to be aired during the festive season. While the exact airing schedule is yet to be announced, the star-studded lineup is already out, with contestants vying for the coveted Golden Eyebrows trophy.

For those traveling during the holidays or residing abroad, here’s how you can watch Taskmaster live using a VPN.
