On this week's Taskmaster Podcast we have something a little different! We are sharing an Episode of the English Heritage Podcast which features our very own Little Alex Horne!
This summer, Taskmaster have teamed up with English Heritage to set you silly challenges as you explore 17 of their sites. So, we couldn’t miss the opportunity to discuss some of the more unusual games and entertainments enjoyed in the past.
In this episode, Amy Matthews is joined by Taskmaster creator Alex Horne and English Heritage curator Peter Moore for some gaming nostalgia, stories of weird and wonderful games from our sites and a selection of Lady Braybrooke’s after-dinner riddles to solve.
Our time starts now!
Don’t forget to follow this podcast and leave a review if you love the show.

0:00.0 | Now it's time to thank our partner of this episode of the Taskmaster podcast, Gregs. |
0:04.8 | And you know here in the world of Taskmaster, we love Gregs. |
0:09.0 | One of those Gregs is Greg Davis. |
0:10.9 | And of course, the other Gregs is Gregs, the bakers. |
0:14.6 | And we're talking lunch. |
0:16.7 | Because if your days only seem to be getting busier, finding time for a lunch break and doing |
0:21.3 | something that's just for you can be quite an uphill task. And while we enjoy watching other people |
0:26.3 | do uphill tasks, we'd rather it didn't involve us missing out on a lovely lunch. And that makes Gregs a |
0:32.9 | great choice. Because even when you're ridiculously short on time, Gregs has what you need to make lunch |
0:38.4 | so quick and easy, it feels like you're cheating, or indeed you found a hack to the task. And whilst |
0:44.3 | we encourage thinking outside the box, cheating itself is never welcome. Greg's is a task loophole and a |
0:51.0 | delicious one at that. So take a break from doing a million things a day and enjoy some |
0:56.0 | you time at lunchtime in the company of a vegan sausage roll perhaps, a chicken bake perchance, |
1:03.0 | maybe even a salad or a sandwich or a slice of pizza? The choice is yours and there's so much choice |
1:10.8 | at Greg's. Much like Greg Davis, |
1:13.4 | Greggs is quick, convenient and tasty and great value. Grab a Greggs for lunch and bag some joy. |
1:22.7 | Now it's time to thank our partner for this episode, Villa Maria Wines. Now when I've got time to |
1:28.5 | chill out at home, I love a nice glass of white. And Villa Maria's New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc |
1:34.1 | is a wine I'll definitely be reaching for. It's crisp, vibrant and bursting with zesty and lush |
1:39.3 | tropical fruits. It's a delicious wine that's perfect for every summer occasion. Now, I can't list every summer occasion, but here's somewhere I'll probably be enjoying it. |
1:49.0 | Picnics, relaxing in the sun, barbecuing, watching someone barbecue and letting them know that they're cremating everything. |
1:56.0 | Basically, my favourite summer activities. |
