Emma is among the five comedians taking part.
The latest season of Channel 4's comedy show Taskmaster is upon us, with Greg Davies and Alex Horne returning to host.
Taskmaster season 18 adopts the same formula as previous seasons, with a cohort of five comedians appearing as contestants and taking part in a series of random and ridiculous challenges set by Davies and Horne.
One comedian taking part in this year's line-up is comedian Emma Sidi, who'll be going up against Rosie Jones, Babatunde Aléshé, Jack Dee and Andy Zaltzman.
Following John Robins's win earlier this year, anticipation has been at an all-time high among Taskmaster fans to see who will come out on top.
So could it be Sidi? With season 18 in full swing, read on for everything you need to know about the comedian, her career so far and what else she has appeared in on TV.
Emma Sidi is an actress, comedian and writer who has worked across stage and screen.
Sidi rose to fame after appearing on James Acaster's web series Sweet Home Lahnsteineringa alongside Jack Barry in 2016.
Sidi's solo comedy shows, which she has debuted at Edinburgh Fringe Festival, have seen her take on different characters.
In her 2015 show Character Breakdown, Sidi played a feminist professor who delivers a lecture in Spanish, her 2016 show, Telenovela, saw Sidi play a woman who dreams of a life as a TV presenter, and in 2018 she played a wannabe Love Island contestant and someone on a bizarre blind date.
Her most recent Fringe show saw her play a parody version of Downing Street's chief of staff Sue Gray, earning critical acclaim amid a sell-out run.
Beyond her stage work, Sidi has appeared on a number of television programmes, including W1A, Stath Lets Flats and Ghosts.
Sidi also appeared in Starstruck alongside Rose Matafeo. More recently, viewers have seen her in Death in Paradise as Amelia Templeton and as Olivia in BBC's We Might Regret This.
