...and there's more than one woman!

The comedians taking on ridiculous challenges in the next series of Taskmaster have been revealed.

They are Hugh Dennis, Noel Fielding, Mel Giedroyc, Joe Lycett and Lolly Adefope.

It's a significant break for Adefope, who's the least well known of the group and it also marks the first time there has been more than one female contestant on the Dave show.

Lycett tweeted: 'I'm going to smash the shit out of these bell ends.'

Taskmaster Greg Davies and sidekick Alex Horne, who devised the series based on an Edinburgh show, will both be returning 

Earlier this month it was revealed that two more series of Taskmaster had been commissioned for next year, each running to eight episodes.

Series 3 of Taskmaster concludes on Dave tonight at 10pm, with Rob Beckett, Paul Chowdhry, Dave Gorman, Al Murray and Sara Pascoe.
