Mrs T and I spent this afternoon in London doing the Taskmaster experience. It was absolutely brilliant.

I expected to win, but I got only 1 point.

Mrs T made the final and came second.

The whole space, the ambience, all of it, was tip top.

Everyone there clearly loved it. Not cheap at £100 a head but so it goes.

I’m doing it in December as a Christmas present to the family, so no spoilers please!

Rotten tomatoes!

Oh, sorry, they do spoil easily.

We did this today. Much like @Harry Wilson's tackle, I expected to win as I’m usually quite good at this type of thing - I was useless! However my eldest daughter did us proud and ended up coming away as a Taskmaster champion.

I didn’t really know what to expect beforehand (other than it would probably at least be a bit like the TV series) as I didn’t do any prior research for fear of finding spoilers that would ruin the experience. So I won’t say much in here, other than it is very good and does feel very much like the TV programme. £100 a head is a lot for this though, particularly for a family of 4 like us.

Fortunately, as we’d booked it for an early Sunday evening slot, it was significantly cheaper at £50 a head, still fairly pricey but it felt like reasonable value and we all thoroughly enjoyed it.

Glad you enjoyed it. I'm pleased Greg Davies has stuck with the TV show. The fact that the format never changes (while the games do) adds to the pleasure for me. Familiarity and repetition, yet different every time, is one of my 'things'. A bit like watching the Albion :lolol:

Just got an email saying I was successful in the £25 ticket lottery which is nice. Do you go with random people if you don't go as a group of four? Trying to figure out the logistics before I book anything!

Appreciate it’s an old post, but avoiding spoilers can you give us a little more on what it’s like?

I’ve been tasked with booking this for work in the New Year.
If in London you can take on GB Athletes in 20+ non sporting and sporting fun challenges for £20-£35 a head.

Hope you caught the recent Junior Taskmaster. It had moments of great hilarity and some of the ideas the kids came up with to win the taks were really smart.
