The show is coming back this year after seven years break.”
“The organizers decided to make some changes in the presentation of the show by introducing a Task Master along with the Anchor. I am playing non of the roles above but I will be making celebrity appearances in this year’s show as a mark of honor. So, I’m not totally out of Gulder Ultimate Search.”
