A non-broadcast taster of Foodmaster is being recorded next week, with the stand-up and Great British Menu judge joined by five celebrity contestants in a competition in which they must use their imagination, ingenuity and lateral thinking to showcase "culinary creativity" rather than cooking skills, as they try to answer the question: "Food is great, but how can it be improved?"

...

In March, Channel 4 committed to six more series of Taskmaster, plus Junior Taskmaster, with Rose Matafeo to feature in the titular Greg Davies role and Mike Wozniak in the Horne role of sidekick.

That same month, BCG revealed that Horne is also piloting the game show People Watching with the channel, and last month it revealed that Channel 4 has recommissioned The Horne Section TV Show for a second series.

They're certainly trying to cash in on Taskmaster, I just don't see anything beyond Junior Taskmaster catching that lightning in a bottle.

This sounds good but I wish they didn't make it a Taskmaster spinoff. It's going to be hard to replicate the success, may have more luck with its own identity.

Ed will be great though
