Series 16 started last night and off to a great start with five great guests this series.
I only got into this a few seasons ago but have recently binged it and watched most of the old series - all available on Channel 4 now too.
Surprised there's nothing at all here about if but if you're looking to watch some I can heartily recommend Series 5 to go back to...
Basically it's a series where the same guests are in every episode for the whole series and you see how they get on with an insane variety of tasks and challenges - some team tasks but mostly individual. It's filmed over many months and they only get to see how each other tackled the tasks once in the studio... A really clever concept for me.

We will pay the price but we will not count the cost..
Still no-one watching this? 🤣
Back for S17 a few weeks back and brilliant as ever.
A real strength of the whole concept is that, unlike most other 'game shows' where someone can stand out to win because they're good/knowledgeable etc. at a particular thing, these tasks are so varied they can all excel in different things week to week.
This season has Nick Mohammed (Ted Lasso etc.) and Steve Pemberton (Inside No. 9 etc.) as probably the two most recognisable guests but the other 3, and two women especially, are hilarious.
Ep 3 tonight but all available in App/online.
