Rugby World Cup winner tackles Taskmaster and calls it an unforgettable experience
Yesterday at 03:12 PM
Think you've got what it takes to be a Taskmaster champion? Now's your chance to prove it.
Find your local Greene King and settle in for the 2025 Six Nations!
The hit TV show has been transformed into a mind-bending, side-splitting live experience, packed with bizarre, brilliant, and utterly infuriating challenges. If you've been missing that Greg Davies-shaped void in your life, this might just be the perfect fix.
Earlier this year, Taskmaster: The Live Experience launched in London, giving fans the chance to step into the legendary Taskmaster house and take on some truly wacky and wonderful tasks. England's 2003 Rugby World Cup winner Matt Dawson called it an "incredible family day out"—not surprising, since he walked away as the champ.
Participants can choose between two equally ridiculous challenge routes—Melon Bright and Absolute Casserole—before taking on the final task, where one lucky contestant bags the coveted winner's medal (just like Dawson did).
Every task has been carefully crafted by Alex Horne and the team behind the award-winning show, meaning it's as close as you'll get to the real deal. While Greg and Alex aren't there in person, their holographic video instructions bring all the chaos, charm, and confusion you'd expect.
Once you've completed your questionable feats of genius (or utter failure), you can unwind in the Taskmaster garden, grab a drink, and explore the Taskmaster museum, featuring legendary props like the iconic title-sequence typewriterand contestant artwork. There's even a bar serving themed cocktails, because let's face it—you'll probably need one.

NIGEL OWENS: MY TOP 5 CAPTAINS
Get ready for a surprising revelation from renowned rugby referee Nigel Owens, as he unveils his list of the top five captains he has officiated.
#5. Chris Robshaw (England)
The flanker is a former English rugby union player who captained the national team from 2012 to 2015.
Known for his exceptional work rate and leadership skills, Robshaw was a dynamic flanker who made a significant impact on the field. He enjoyed a successful club career with Harlequins, where he played for over a decade. Robshaw’s dedication and commitment to the sport earned him numerous accolades and the respect of his peers.
Off the field, he is admired for his philanthropic efforts, using his platform to support various charitable causes.
Owens said: “Some people will be surprised at this one to start off. His misfortune was perhaps to be leading England during a difficult time, but he always gave everything for the cause, encouraging others to follow suit, and he was a nice guy off the pitch.”
