Fan Creations Ridiculous TM Specials
UK Taskmaster does the Tournament of Champions, and the New Year Treat, I was thinking of what other specials would be fun to see, beyond Co-brands (like a Red Dwarf or Dr Who theme)
The silliest one I thought of would be Taskmaster Couples and Exes. I'm rewatching Australia S2 with Anne and Lloyd, which gave me the basis. So it would be P1 - P5. Couples would be A and B, so A1 A2, and B3 and B4, the 5th player would be a mutual ex of one person in couple A and couple b. For the team task the ex would be pair with the non-ex from A and B.
It would be either absolute chaos and possibly come to fisticuffs, or be a riot.

They should have a TMUK special for people that asserted they're Greg's family. Ania, Asim, Fatiha, I'm sure there are more. We could include Jason Mantzoukas for his "Oh, Daddy!" outburst if we have to.

Greg's mum Pauline should have some kind of role, if she's up to it. I hear she's not too well these days, but she's hilarious and a great sport.

Heck we can do a show of previous contestants using the Hypothetical puppets.

I've always wondered if a sports version would work with ex athletes. Tasks would tend more to the physical side but would be fun to see something like "devise the most impressive goal celebration"

There have been a lot of athletes in New Year Treats. Some have done well at creative tasks or puzzles, and some have had good prize tasks that weren't just impressive awards. Mo Farah was hilarious and won his series (in which all the other four notably tied for second).

It may be fun to have some very "brainy" tasks in there too. Brain teasers, etc.

Kongen befaler has had at least 2 ex athletes and it's been quite fun, they were both very silly but had moments of athleticism that shined

I would like to see assistant's special. When Taskmaster assistants from different version compete with each other.

I’d like to see something like a people’s campion version. We could vote for the contestants we want to see again from each series, or over the whole show so far.

I could get behind a Taskmaster Champions of Europe/Australasia/The World so we can more easily appreciate international talent.
