It's pretty crazy that we could be getting Champions of Champions 3 about a year after 2. I doubt Sarah's gonna win because 5 points is a big deficit to make up, but I'm rooting for her. Dara does tend to get disqualified and Sarah doesn't, so here's hoping!

Someone posted a photo of him and a couple of the others out filming (I think on a boat?) and people put two and two together. It was a very strong final episode, I felt, and a very worthy winner. Not my favourite series overall, as I never really got the John Kearns love (I found his ineptitude grimly irritating and thought he was bafflingly poor at the studio banter, but hey, comedy is subjective, after all, glad other people enjoyed him). I did like Fern though, and I have found a new appreciation for Sarah Millican. I loved the way she could say such cutting things in such a sweet tone, it cracked me up.

It was also leaked on Wikipedia so it turns out you could always look back at the revision history...

I did warm up to John a bit as the series went on and he got past his early total flops but I'd still put him fifth out of the five here. And Sarah really thrived in the Taskmaster environment, her humour clicked for me much better here than in the usual panel shows. For my money this was the best version of the "pick some items without knowing what they're going to be for" kind of task. That said, the item Dara covered completely wasn't the one he put on the barrel without touching! He should have dumped that cider all over the nice man.

Mae Martin has a pretty good show called Feel Good on Channel 4 in the UK and Netflix internationally. and yeah Boyle is very well-known (if an irritating shell of what he used to be). I don’t know the other three.

Feel Good is rather good, I watched it after the line up was leaked in here a while back. Jenny Eclair is a really old comedian, I feel like she was one of those really vulgar ones like Jo Brand but I could be making that up.

Not a surprising end to a series, but very enjoyable nonetheless. Loved that final house and studio tasks both were a bit more elaborate than usual. Also, going to be nice to see Frankie Boyle maybe have some light-hearted fun for once.

Here for the solidarity hug between Fern and John at the end. Dara really ended up embodying a 'BOSH' attitude stronger than any other contestant. Never felt like he bothered to really gel with anyone in the cast, which is a shame. Just comparing the final shots of this episode where he's going person to person and shaking their hand like "good game, good game" vs. last season where everyone gets up doing Bridget Christies dance. Not going to be among my favorite seasons, but really good tasks this round and the energy from Munya, John, and Fern was an absolute pleasure.

He hasn’t done anything bad I don’t think he’s just a pale imitation of his former self who sold out heavily. Hopefully will still be a fun contestant though

I loved in the prize task when everyone was adding their prize in to the asteroid doomsday scenario all John could say was "we haven't done mine yet". Really good series.

Really good series. it was somehow the perfect capper to that run of jokes too, with everyone playing off eachother and then cutting to john feeling inadequate -- he has genuinely impeccable timing for someone that often seems unable to talk

Great finale, loved the season. My favorite bit of the episode was probably Fern's rollercoaster of emotions when she tried and failed to eat a plastic grape.

I quite enjoyed how when John came in to the first task they filmed he tried to hang his jacket on the door, only for it to fall to the ground. I like how that seems to lead in to him just flinging his jacket away at the start of every other task later on.

Watching Fern feels like watching a young child. You get to see someone who hasn't been conditioned to hide all their weird quirks just reacting purely to whatever is going on. And it's really sweet and endearing.
