Janette, 38, appeared alongside comedian Sarah Millican and TV presenter Ade Adepitan on the celebrity special of the show.
In the second round, the stars were given a chance to answer questions within a 30-second timer to win counters for the machine.
However - Janette failed to impress when she only answered one question correctly, and even getting a Strictly Come Dancing one wrong.
"Which Strictly Come Dancing judge won the 2021 New Years' special of the game show Taskmaster?" host Ben, 47, asked her.

Prompting her for an answer as the timer ticked, he repeated: "Which judge?" to which a puzzled Janette simply replied: "Pass."
Stunned, Ben came back to quiz her on why she didn't answer the question when the timer came to an end, revealing it was Shirley Ballas.
"Now, look - I can forgive you a few of them, Janette - but do you know Strictly at all?" he jibed, as she insisted: "I do, but I don't know which judge competed."
Suggesting "the pressure" got the better of her, she laughed off: "It's the pressure. If this was dancing I would be great."

Fans at home were left equally baffled as to why the former Strictly professional was unable to name any of the show's judges.
"It's a good job that Janette can dance," one scathed, as a second added: "Strictly Dumb Chancing."
"Oh Janette, it's a Strictly question!" a third said, as a fourth chimed in: "Janette's charity will be f***ing delighted. 300 quid!"
This week, Janette broke her silence on the news of her husband Aljaz Skorjanec leaving Strictly Come Dancing.
The It Takes Two host - who quit the BBC dance competition as a pro dancer last year - said the 32-year-old is "what 'Strictly' is all about".
"He IS STRICTLY and what Strictly is all about; taking someone who wants to learn to dance, and making them truly fall in love with it," she wrote.
Announcing his departure, the star shared a series of photos on Instagram from his time on Strictly and said: "A little while ago I made the tough decision that Strictly 2021 would be my last.
