Taskmaster season 19 star Stevie Martin has won the fashion game with a tribute T-shirt for a beloved American comedian.
Tonight's Taskmaster saw this season's line-up — Stevie stars alongside Fatiha El-Ghorri, Jason Mantzoukas, Mathew Baynton and Rosie Ramsey — do their best to impress Greg Davies and his co-host Alex Horne.
While the Taskmaster is notoriously hard to impress, Stevie managed to win viewers at home with a T-shirt dedicated to Steve Martin.
Making the most of their very similar names, Stevie rocked the Only Murders in the Building star's face for the studio task, for which she won 5 points.

Great choice of T-shirt aside, Stevie was at the centre of one of the episode's most hilarious moments, seeing her jumping in the garden and "inventing a new way for humans to move".
Despite her best efforts, Stevie ended up joint third with Jason and Rosie, while Fatiha ranked second. After winning this season premiere, Mathew won episode two as well, earning a total of 23 points.
Taskmaster airs season 21 on Thursdays at 9pm on Channel 4, and streams on the Channel 4 website/app.
