Get ready to channel your inner comedian, because Taskmaster is coming up north.
Well…sort of.
The beloved (and hilarious) show is bringing a family-friendly version to Scarborough Castle as you are invited to try your hand at the wacky tasks yourselves.
From Saturday 19 July to Sunday 31 August, visitors can take part in the ridiculous challenges inspired by the hit TV show.
In partnership with English Heritage, it’s appropriate for all ages and a fantastic day out for all the family.
Contestants will pick up their score card on arrival before exploring the site and getting involved in tasks along the way.
Whether you’re a die-hard fan or a complete newbie, it guarantees a hilarious day out in the Yorkshire air. And don’t worry, Greg Davies and Alex Horne won’t be judging your efforts along the way – phew.
Beth Stone, Head of Visitor Engagement and Experience at English Heritage, said, “We are delighted to be collaborating with the Taskmaster team this summer. From tasks such as becoming a monarch and making your own laws to creating your own solstice our visitors can expect a host of fun with a history twist at many of our properties and of course, plenty of rubber ducks!”
Alex Horne, creator and star of Taskmaster, said: “From the unusual position of being both a parent and a Taskmaster’s assistant I feel confident that this relationship will be a positive one for kids, grown-ups and general fans of heritage. It’s nice to go to nice places but it’s even nicer to do fun things in those nice places and this should ensure you can do just that for this summer at least. And Greg agrees with me, so this is official.”
