‘I was PARALYSED with fear'

Charlotte Ritchie swaps madcap goings-on in a haunted stately manor for, er, madcap goings-on in the Taskmaster house this week!

The Ghosts and Call the Midwife favourite is one of five celebrities (her opponents are Not Going Out star Lee Mack plus comedians Jamali Maddix, Mike Wozniak and Sarah Kendall) taking part in the 11th season of the popular comedy game show, which moved from Dave to C4 last year.
