Taskmaster's Champion of Champions has tribute to missing Mae Martin
Spoilers for Taskmaster season 16 and the New Year's special in 2024 are about to be discussed.
Taskmaster has offered praise to ex-champion Mae Martin, just before the upcoming launch of its third Champion of Champions edition.
The champion of series 15 won't be able to participate in the upcoming spin-off owing to scheduling issues. As a result, Kiell Smith-Bynoe, who came in second place, will take his place.
Even though the comedian wasn't physically present, the show which won the BAFTA award succeeded in featuring the comedian in a sneak peek picture advertising the upcoming season.
The popular TV show Taskmaster is soon releasing an authorized video game featuring Alex Horne and Greg Davies.
The photo displays the actors with the hosts, Greg Davies and Alex Horne. One of the Ghosts stars was seen wearing a sweater that has a Canadian design and printed with Martin's face.
Martin spoke out about being unable to take part in Taskmaster's Champion of Champions in a statement released before the show aired. They expressed their anger and frustration at the situation.
I really want to compete for the championship title and endure another week of Greg's teasing. But I believe Kiell is the best choice to represent me. He's quick, loves to win, and he's way cooler and funnier than me, so we have a good chance of winning.
The comedian continued to joke about including "unexpected things to make sure people notice" them in every episode, then ended with "Best of luck, Kiell. I'm eagerly anticipating your success all the way from the United States."

Smith-Bynoe humorously commented about his upcoming appearance on the show, saying that it would be a challenge as he previously represented black Britain on Season 15 and now he has to represent the whole nation of Canada in the Champion of Champions. He admits that he has never even been to Canada and he did not even emerge victorious in his own series. Nonetheless, he will do his best to succeed.
The upcoming program will feature past champions of series 11-14, namely Dara Ó Briain, Morgana Robinson, Sarah Kendall, and Sophie Duker, competing to become the newest Champion of Champions.
Taskmaster has had a lot going on lately. In November, funnyman Sam Campbell won the season 16 finale. Last night (January 2), actor Lenny Rush came out on top in the New Year's Treat special.
The television program, Taskmaster, is coming back for its 17th series and another edition of Champion of Champions later this year, which can be viewed on Channel 4. You can also access past series by streaming them.
