After Dinner Speech with Special Guest Ania Magliano
Q: Can we go back to the beginning then? When you were first phoned, texted, emailed, and asked to be on Taskmaster, what was your initial reaction?
I was so surprised and delighted because it seemed like something that wouldn't happen for years.
Cheeky Boy Tim - S1, Ep.1
Q: What noticeable differences did you see in the first episode of Taskmaster compared to now?
The hosts noted the lack of props and how the bones of the show were strong yet different in terms of structure, audience engagement, and presentation style.
Demolition Takes a Little Bit of Time - S19, Ep.4
Q: Are you over in the UK at the moment? What have you done in your time? Have you done any Taskmastery things?
