Potato feat named Taskmaster's greatest ever moment

It was a remarkable and unexpected feat by any measure - Joe Wilkinson lobbing a spud into a golf hole from a distance on his first attempt.

Now the achievement - which came with agonising twist - has been voted the greatest moment in the history of Taskmaster.

That's according to fans who voted in a knockout tournament on the show's official Twitter account.

The runner-up involved Bob Mortimer, Aisling Bea and Sally Phillips performing a song for a total stranger, coming up with the diss track: Rosalind's A Fucking Nightmare.

Semi-finalists were  Rhod Gilbert hiding in Taskmaster Greg Davies's wardrobe in a bid to do the 'creepiest thing' and James Acaster ranting about how Gilbert ruined a team challenge to build an extension to the Taskmaster's house.

Here's how the elimination played out:
