Rob Brydon would be an excellent shout! Always find TM casts hard to predict because Alex does like to occasionally go quite left field.0
-
Ross Noble would be good (but apparently he's said no), Sindhu Vee too
But to be honest, a load of the people I'd not heard of before have been brilliant, John Kearns, Mike Wozniak, Bridget Christie etc.

Maybe some of the Horrible Histories/Ghosts crew (they've had three already so quite a lot of overlap) - but might be hard to line up the schedules as the 3 already featured are the three who don't do the writing/production bits.0
-
Maybe Sandi tokavig as the "older person", she's good at improv. Paul merton would be good as well for the same reason. Alex Horne really wants jack Dee to do it, he'd be great but guessing he's said no0

Kiell Smith-Bynoe, Charlotte Ritchie, Katy Wix and Lolly Adefope.

Reece Sheersmith would be brilliant too but I'm not sure if it would be his type of thing to agree to.0

A left field choice would be Richard Madeley1

I want Stewart Lee to be on it, mostly just to see what the hell he'd do there

North Lower Neil said:Dara was like that, literally last series.
I don't think Mae has been overly competitive to be honest, just pretty bright in thinking of a way around things (drawing pineapples etc). You need people to think outside of the box and try to get round the rules to make it more fun.1 -
I'd like to see Rob Brydon on it, also Kevin Bridges, Bill Bailey, Richard Ayoade and Jack Dee0

Yeah I saw that. As S16 is being studio filmed now I'd expect her to be one of the contestants when they announce it in 2 weeks.
I love Richard Ayoades work and he's always been one of Alex's top targets with Jack Dee but I do wonder if his style would work on TM?0 -

and Bridget Christie
Matthew Baynton is a possibility, he has the Ghosts connection and played in Alex Horne's charity match recently
Maisie Adam also played in that match so I think is a good shout, she's one you'd expect to appear at some point
I think they should just put KSB in every series, I love watching his facial expressions. This series is right up there as one of my faves; 5 completely different characters working so well together1 -
Maisie Adam feels like a very obvious move. Wouldn't be surprised at all to see her announced on Thursday.0
-
I've seen a rumour that the s16 lineup is:
Julian Clary
Sue Perkins
Lucy Beaumont
Susan Wokoma
Sam Campbell2 -
New cast is exactly what North Lower Neil posted. Massively excited to see how Sue Perkins does.
Mae will be interesting to see in a very strong COC0 - Sponsored links:
-
I'd not heard of Sam Campbell or Susan Wokoma before, will be interesting to see what they're like.

I enjoyed the latest season but never particularly warmed to Mae or Jenny Eclair to be honest.1
-
I wasn’t excited about Jenny eclair being in it but she was my favourite in the end. The potato hat task is quite possibly top 5 tasks ever.Sam Campbell is in Bloods the paramedic comedy set around Lewisham. We enjoyed jt mainly because they drive the ambulances whilst chatting along Lee high road etc.
Susan Wakoma I’ve seen her in something I can’t think of the name of it. Similar comedy show to bloods. Am sure she wears a uniform . (Edited: Porters with Daniel mays)
Am looking forward to Lucy Beaumont. She’s going to be useless.0 -
Lucy Beaumont will be interesting, given I think most of the daft northener thing is a (succesful) shtick. Will she be the same in this, or be more herself?
Apparently Susan Wokoma was in Enola Holmes, which I've seen, but I don't remember her - to be honest I've forgotten most of it, forgot Helena Bonham Carter was the mum too.2 -
Back on Thursday night , very interested to see how this cast does because on paper it seems very strong.0
-
I’ve ditched it now . Getting a bit tedious and far too frequent.0

Watched her interview with Alex and still can't figure out if the daft northerner schtick is all an act or if she's genuinely like that. Think she might be quite polarising.0 -
VERY strong start to series 16.Could be in for another cracker1
-
Thought it was a very very strong start. Feels better than the last series.1
-
Sam Campbell has ridiculous potential this series, completely absurd/irreverent humour but also seems to be the most practically minded of all of them (the final challenge of the show and the “both of them” was almost utterly genius and made me and my wife go “OHHHHH!”).1
