Taskmaster: Champion of Champions 2024 spoilers follow.
Taskmaster has crowned its winner for the third edition of Champion of Champions, with comedian Dara Ó Briain coming out on top.
The comedian triumphed over fellow past winners in the shape of Morgana Robinson, Sarah Kendall and Sophie Duker, whilst Kiell Smith-Bynoe filled in for Mae Martin after they had to turn down the show due to scheduling conflicts

The Irish comedian was in a close contest with Duker, with the pair only being separated by a single point after the scores were tallied. Robinson finished in 3rd place, whilst Kendall and Smith-Bynoe were tied in last position.
The quintet were tasked with an array of challenges, including a rather amusing one which required them to do the "stupidest thing possible" outside the Taskmaster House. Robinson perhaps had the flashiest submission, which involved dousing herself in several bottles of paint.
