Noel actually mentions that on an episode of Taskmaster, but I always assumed it was a joke... until now (5 minutes into Champion of Champions episode 2 for anyone who's curious)
And here I thought that was just a throwaway line on "Champion of Champions", when Josh was complaining about having to sing the Taskmaster theme by himself.
Noel mentioned that on the Champion of Champions. I thought it was just a task they didn't air but he literally hussled some free art. Alex is an evil genius.
“That was like going to work for two megalomaniacs who, if I don’t make good enough products, will make me cry.” I think that is a pretty good bit of irony coming from Little Alex Horne, and I’m sure Katherine Parkinson would agree.
I assumed he was purposely making a Taskmaster joke about himself and Greg. Same with adding politeness to the instructions when it was worded the same way the tasks are worded.
I wish that they would post the full episodes on here and have the Stand Up to Cancer fundraiser linked. I'm sure a lot of people would donate and be happy to be able to see these episodes rather than just clips. It'd be a total win win.
@@jon3048 i love this comment because technically correct is used negatively but now i'm imagining alex always looking proud when he's technically correct, at which point he will not listen to anything that follows.
Haha there are of course more celebrities, but the more popular TV shows know they are popular because of the people, and do like to “keep it in the family” 😅
One of the few times that it's not Alex himself having to eat the gross food that someone else has made. Little Alex Horne is a national treasure. His style of humour always cheers me up on a bad day like today.
Alex always says please to the contestants, though. Plus even though he writes the tasks, it's meant to be from the Taskmaster and would mess up the persona, i think.
for some reason it made me think of when he pointed out to James Acaster that he never says hello to him. "it's not part of the task." "it would be nice though"
@@nomorecensoringme in some culture butter is not used as much, in the mediterrenean region we cook with olive oil, and very rarely with butter, in my daily life i never use it
The comments are absolute gold. It’s also obvious that so many got this recommended because of taskmaster and the comparisons and jokes from that do not disappoint😂😂
A few weeks ago I watched a lot of Taskmaster videos after it was on my home page one time. Never heard of it before. Few days ago, I started getting recommendations for the britisg bake-off. The holy crossover I didn't expect has now arrived
"Santa died 6 years ago, so I buried him. The next morning a fox had dug him up and put him on the front porch so the children had thought he'd risen again. It was after one day - beat Jesus' record!" 😆😆😆

Dude, his story about being on the show was awesome.
Haha
@@elenasullivan4522 I don't think that's how he would have described it...
@@Jojozilla426 Awesome is just shorter for awe-inspiring. Which is exactly how you can describe James's appearance on the show.
@@WarDragon72345 watch cold lasagne hate myself 1999 and you'll know what I mean
I love it that Alex makes the tiniest shocked noise when he drops the biscuit and then STOMPS on it :D
Liza Tarbuck trained him well.
The noise he makes when he drops them cracks me up. I've rewatched it like ten times lmao
Also that they’re the same shoes he wears when he’s leading the Horne Section.
What makes it so funny to me is how he is kind of hesitating for a moment with his foot but then just goes all in.
That and the moment he put flour on his face live rent free in my head
After all the terrible things Alex has had to eat on Taskmaster, you can tell how much joy he got from making Paul eat his cold skate park.
Came here to say this!
Cold mashed potato is pretty tame by Taskmaster standards
@@pineapplesandjellies True, but cold mashed potatoes with congealed gravy has to be one of the worst things Paul has ever tasted on Bake Off and I believe Alex would be very proud of that.
It shouldn't be a surprise that the person who made Taskmaster is the kind of sadist who would make someone eat cold bangers and mash
i JUST watched the episode where Alex at a HUGE spoonful of all the weird ingredients in 4 or 5 bags all blended together. man is a f'in trooper!
It’s so exciting to see him play the agent of chaos he typically has to rein in on Taskmaster.
The Horne Section Podcast is for you my friend if you haven't heard it.
Eh?! But the tasks are his brainchild. They are also _utter_ chaos.
@@Amaranthyne I think they just mean the character of little Alex Horne that he plays on Taskmaster. Everyone knows he's the true brains of the operation, that's why it's funny!
@@reptarien Maybe? But do you see him as something _other_ than an agent of chaos on that show? He is a frequent participant…
Alex Horne operates on a totally different plane of comedy.
I think you mean, "Little Alex Horne"
He's like a (far) less intense version of Lee Mack, both in comedy and wit, and also with a similar voice. I quite like it.
@@writeordie5452 I’m sorry but I completely disagree and would even go as far as to say that’s complete shit. I’ve never liked Lee Mack the guy isn’t funny. Or witty.

It’s amazing how much taller Alex looks when Greg isn’t on the same show…
He's like 6'2 or 6'3, he just pales in comparison to the Almighty Greg
I think Alex Horne's the only comedian that seems 100% like a genuine normal person at all times. He's an asset to Britain honestly.
Mmmm I’d say more of a 100% abnormal person at all times, trying to appear normal but not really managing it. An asset definitely.

Do ya'll outside the UK not have a way to watch these?
“Little Alex Horne!” Ohhh such a delight to see his face. Such a funny guy, going to have to watch this full episode.
I've only ever watched the first 8 series, so seeing him with grey hair was a bit of a shock!
This isn’t the first time Alex and Noel have been on the same show but the roles are pretty much reversed now
Taskmaster wasn't the first either if I'm not mistaken
Noel hosted Montreal Just for Laughs, Alex was on there in 2010.
I know Alex was also a guest host on the old "Nevermind the Buzzcocks" on which Noel was a team captain
HE ACTUALLY HAD NOEL PAINT HIS SHED, I THOUGHT THAT WAS A JOKE!
It’s so interesting to see Noel and Alex outside of Taskmaster together. Also interesting not seeing Alex introduced as “little Alex Horne” xD
It should neither be allowed nor possible for a man in his forties to be THAT adorable
I was thinking the exact same thing
He is SO adorable, I just want to hug him
@@Frogsituation I want to give him a special cuddle.
(Was referencing the task but now that I wrote it down it does sound wrong lol)
"Now, you call these elephants?"
"What do you call them?"
"Uh..."
Alex Horne definitely channeled Greg Davies when he said, “nice big mouthful.” 😂
I would absolutely kill to see the footage of Noel painting that graffiti on taskmaster
All the taskmaster episodes except season ten are online free on their official channel!
They meant when Alex tricked Noel into spray painting his shed and told him it was for Taskmaster.
Ironically, if anyone has mastered the "technical" joke, it's Little Alex
He missed one positive option, "technically correct" which is the best kind of correct.
@@jon3048 i love this comment because technically correct is used negatively but now i'm imagining alex always looking proud when he's technically correct, at which point he will not listen to anything that follows.

@@Kirsten_is_cursed10 I call it the Channel 4 universe. They all seem to take turns. Jimmy Carr seems to host most of them.
silly brits 🍔🇺🇸
But there have been nearly 100 contestants on Taskmaster! :P
“It’s more fun for me than for you.” Alex reveals his true nature…
Greg doesn’t let him get away with the golden shoes and pink jumper usually
i love his gold trainers! so cute!
Wouldn't have let him get away with the sassy "thank you for your comments!" at the end either
I think that might be how he gets punished in the traditional way.
Alex horne making them eat cold mash and sausage...making them feel what its like on taskmaster
He turned the tables on Paul & Pru! 😁
I'm sorry but Alex Horne in a baggy baby pink jumper and gold sneakers is really adorable and surprisingly attractive
Alex has got my favourite type of humour, dry, witty, clever, sarcastic. Its a joy
Noel just standing there smug after what Alex put him through on Taskmaster just delights me😂😂
"It's witty, but it ain't gastronomy." Such and Alex-worthy comment.
Alex Horne is the epitome of Chaotic Good.
Maybe someday they'll convince Paul to do Taskmaster. For Revenge.
As someone not in the comedy arena, he'd suit one of those one off specials they do occasionally.
@@Elwaves2925 I'd like to see a culinary one-off Taskmaster special. Maybe get Gordon Ramsay on there too
@@delightfulmochas Good idea. I think Ramsey's terrible but it would be fun to see him humiliate himself on TM.
You finally get to see how tall Alex really is.
hahaha my first thought, you forget how tall he is cus he's sitting next to Greg all the time 😄
I know, right? Alex’s actually six-two.
@@grahamstrouse1165 He says that he is 6-2 but he's 5 foot 4.

Trust Alex Horne to turn eating his bake into a task.
One of the few times that it's not Alex himself having to eat the gross food that someone else has made.
Little Alex Horne is a national treasure. His style of humour always cheers me up on a bad day like today.
Look at Alex all well prepared with his snail, and his cellphone pic, and those onion goggles that I need in my life......! hehe
I love, how this isnt hectic at all. It is somehow calm, decent, yet hilarious humor
Alex forgot about "technically correct", which is the best kind of correct
I demand all future taskmaster tasks now begin with 'Please' as well. Come on, Alex. Practice what you preach.
Alex always says please to the contestants, though. Plus even though he writes the tasks, it's meant to be from the Taskmaster and would mess up the persona, i think.
for some reason it made me think of when he pointed out to James Acaster that he never says hello to him.

The snail cookies were adorable 🥰
If you get a VPN you can certainly get some past episodes of bake off on channel 4. Not sure about the BBC ones

The world is rather awful, and I do not like it much, but then I remember it had Alex Horne in it. And that makes it a bit better
Hard same. I've adopted Horne, Watson and Key as my parasocial older brothers.
😂😂😂 Funny that Noel is now judging Alex instead of the other way around. And I love that they both seem to be having fun. ☺
In these celebrity versions, the ones in charge are so clearly the ‘contestants’ and the dynamic shift is so funny

You can practically see Alex daring Paul to go on Taskmaster with that Choux Skatepark.
Omg, Alex really did make Noel Fielding paint his shed! 😭😭😭
he's just so likeable
Alex has a sadistic streak. And looks good in pink.
They missed the once in a life time chance to tell Alex Horne "All the information is on the card".
The British shows cinematic universe is the best cinematic universe.
Love when he stepped on the cookie!!!!! That's how ya feel when that happens!!!!
"What does it mean!?" Is a Mood Quote
Seeing Alex on this is such a delight!
"Eat your exotic chooks-stopper." (Also: Alex's gold trainers, Noel's silver boots...yes please, please! 🤩)
All the information is in the recipe.
Like Pauls never eaten a sausage roll or crepe. Cold savory is common.
Yes but not all savoury things work well cold. Mash and gravy being two of them and what he took issue with. It wasn't cold savoury as a whole.

He is such a wonderful, funny man
2:12 alex has very nice hands
something about seeing him in metallic gold shoes is so funny to me
Alex turning it around on the judges, very fitting
Alex tapping a bit of flour on his cheek was underrated greatness
It "warms" the heart when it's all in good fun.
I don’t know who this is but he is my new favorite man
A few weeks ago I watched a lot of Taskmaster videos after it was on my home page one time. Never heard of it before. Few days ago, I started getting recommendations for the britisg bake-off.
The holy crossover I didn't expect has now arrived
OMG YESSSSSSSS I NEEDED MY TWO FAVE SHOWS
You need to release the celebrity one to Netflix USA for your fans please
i hate how much "bakesky" made me giggle
When Alex was changing the recipe, i kinda hoped he would add at the end "Your task starts now".
“Thank you for your comments” is high brit for “give me a fucking break”
Alex is my favorite person.
Also, I've seen those goggles on Sur La Table for $30 and I told my sister I'm in the wrong business
Seeing Alex on Bake Off is the closure we all need after watching Mel and Noel compete in the same season of Taskmaster.
"Santa died 6 years ago, so I buried him. The next morning a fox had dug him up and put him on the front porch so the children had thought he'd risen again. It was after one day - beat Jesus' record!" 😆😆😆
i love that he goes into each bake intending to make these things seriously and still manages to make it even funnier than he probably planned.
