More Times Alex Suffered For The Task | Taskmaster

[@MossyDoesComedy]

Alex’s commitment to the bit is absolutely unrivalled

[@Ballistic7]

Bro, I found your content hilarious, good job! You earned a sub 😂

[@skrimper]

Absolutely. Most based Celebrity to ever grace this Earth

[@Atsom655321]

The show wouldn’t work as well if Alex wasn’t 100% committed to everything he is asked to do. God bless that man

[@Liltinasmile]

Part of me is convinced he loves it

[@partyrat_]

@@Atsom655321it is alexes show, literally, he came up with it and he writes the tasks! Of course he enjoys it :)

[@abj6920]

We need to take a step back and remember that Alex created the show, comes up with the tasks, is there during every recording day, endures pain, humiliation and the wrath of the contestants and he STILL made the star of teh show someone else. That is a baffling level of humility or insanity and I admire both.

[@Liltinasmile]

Or he's into it.

[@michaelj.beglinjr.2804]

You can get away with a lot more when you're not the main focus of everyone's attention.

[@KaliPark]

@@Liltinasmile LMAOOOOOOOOOO I was thinking the same thing- Like genuinely unless you're some sort of kinky masochist who actually would want to put themselves through the elevl of stuff that Alex endures. Full props to him tho frrrrr

[@Liltinasmile]

@@KaliPark take it from a kinky masochist, I've gone to bed thinking about the kind of things Alex has to do on taskmaster lmao

[@hbk2115]

He said in an interview that he wanted to be involved with tasks but couldn't do that if he was the taskmaster

[@tsherwood8960]

“That’s the water feature closed for today, kids.” makes me laugh EVERY TIME 😂

[@redelfshotthefood8213]

Rhod’s anarchist humour is a joy!

[@Taolan8472]

When asked in an interview if Alex Horne knew Rhod from before Taskmaster, Alex responded "Not well enough, to expect him to do... any of that."

[@speakingwithoutnet]

No one could expect Rhod.

[@riverandromeda6070]

Sally Phillips sprinkling Alex with lettuce, jamming cake into his armpits, and finally waterboarding him, all while laughing maniacally, will never not be funny.

[@Tb0n33999]

I love it when contestants figure out messing with Alex gets them points.

[@Fenrisaconite]

Really enjoyed how Morgana's eyes sort of switched on when she read that task out, and she began actively hunting Alex like an apex predator.

[@dmeep]

You never really expect to be powerwashed by a granny when stepping out of a shed

[@RandomGuyJCI]

Right before the granny does a long maniacal laugh, no less

[@genericname2747]

Speak for yourself, I'm always expecting it

[@lucylayne]

Finding out through Greg in the podcast that Alex will do literally anything for a laugh even outside of the show as well continues to make my every day.

[@ScrambledAndBenedict]

"So I've got to find the little bastard" and "I've just seen him, the little fucker!" has to be two of my all-time favorite Taskmaster quotes.

[@TetraDax]

If I had a nickel for everytime Alex got waterboarded on this show..

[@Unjustly_Confident]

I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it’s strange that it happened twice

[@Friendlysociopath]

@@Unjustly_Confident If you count water-based torture in general- he's up to three or four

[@mloxard]

​@@Unjustly_Confidentmuch more

[@seldom_bucket]

@@Unjustly_Confident taking jokes literally is very clever, you are clearly the life and soul of the party.

[@lizcollinson2692]

And food inserted.

[@typerexc]

"That's the water feature closed for today, kids." is a phrase that has lived in my head ever since I first saw this, ages ago. It never goes away.

[@TheOneAndOnlyTed]

The one where Alex had to sit bare cheeks on a cake still feels like the most violating.

[@luluhasleftthechat5911]

It was in the first video about this

[@AlyJeann]

Someday I hope we get to see the tasks that didn't make the cut...and what Alex suffered for those.

[@thomasdegroat6039]

I LOVED Alex and Sally's dynamic. They seem like they're always having so much fun together

[@ResettisReplicas]

Special Cuddle was the first task of Series 5. It certainly set the tone

[@nicholeayt509]

It was a great season! One of the best

[@elise_fastcar]

Further proof Alex is the artist suffering for his art. Wouldn’t be the same without him!

[@mirrankei]

I love how in almost every shot of the "cuddle", Alex has a different "eye mask"

[@neruneri]

After having played with Rhod before, I'm sure Alex has long since gotten immune to humiliation. I feel like the last vestiges of his pride as far as image on telly goes, went when Rhod did the quick swap task. Really does show what you need to have to make a show like this though - sheer commitment to the bit, dignity be damned. Alex becoming the Taskmaster's Minion despite being the creator of the show was a stroke of genius, because he's therefore not asking anybody else to give up their dignity. He does it because it's his show at heart. Makes you truly appreciate his power level.

[@JoeBleasdaleReal]

You could see how visibly angry the other contestants were at Rhod’s attempt. It was…questionable, legally speaking 😂😂😂

[@IDKndIDK]

That whole season was gold, filled with lots of anger and just... bafflement directed at Rhod

[@Lizzo13]

I think nobody likes Alex suffering for tasks more than Alex, even the Taskmaster. I just wonder if he talks about work when he gets home. "I got waterboarded during a task today." "Again?"

[@Withcare11]

In a sane world Rhod Gilbert would be in the Hague on trial for crimes against humanity.

[@LW-bw8or]

Alex's commitment is one of the best things about the show but I'm not sure suffering is the right descriptive here

[@keithbutler6188]

Well he did create the show. You have to suffer for your art.😂

[@nerdlord2288]

Rob beckett cackling will always be one my favorite moments,along with sally lol

[@ladyflimflam]

I couldn’t tell if Nish and Mark counted themselves lucky to escape Sally’s attention or if they were eager to line up for their turns.

[@lizcollinson2692]

They don't know either.

[@iliketrains3495]

Shame you cut out of one of Greg's best lines from that series: "5 points... and up to £20,000 of my own money for counselling - Rhod Gilbert!"

[@nohandle508]

Not only is Alex national treasure, he's a worldwide treasure.

[@KlaximumSkroeft]

His commitment every time makes the show. He never makes fun of anyone's idea he just goes with it, always.

[@barnaclefelching4079]

Who knows what else he is going to have to go through over the remainder of his existence, I can't imagine he will be delighted by all of it

[@slake9727]

Imagine if Jimmy Carr was on the show.

[@cannibalbananas]

Love how this show allows people to really let their crazy out 😂😂

[@Jorb.]

Sally laughing manically whilst stuffing Alex's socks with cake, fully kneeling on top of him really got me

[@billyeveryteen7328]

I liked Sally Phillips when I saw her on other British telly shows, but Taskmaster made me fall in love with the woman.

[@KaliPark]

Oh 10000000000000000000000% agree

[@lizcollinson2692]

Just when it sounds like she's going to get pervy, it's just a close quarters food fight.

[@jetjohnston8164]

Al this point, a task should just be “who can little Alex Horne as uncomfortable as possible.”

[@michaelj.beglinjr.2804]

I think Lisa and the cake wins that one hands down. Or maybe pants down lolol

[@barneymetcalfe8896]

Joanne McNally sort of did this in S17E03

[@kylekinsey2624]

That was literally a task on the latest episode. I think series 17 ep3

[@christianboehlefeld5168]

Brilliant move by Bridgette, no points, but brilliant.

[@homagetogorto]

1:56 I’m so glad my life never requires me to use the phrase “open up” in this way.

[@SithCode]

The funny thing about the "unexpected thing poking out of the grotto task" is, the second I saw Rhod GIlbert was one of the contestants, I knew Alex's ass was going out of that hole hahaha

[@tilallpiecesfit]

About time Alex’s suffering for our amusement gets some recognition! Even though he does throw himself under the bus sometimes

[@NHT2]

The Sally special cuddle makes me cry every single time I see it. She's so amazing.

[@bootieos7701]

His stomach must be that powerful to withstand the slew of food combinations in a few tasks. Poor fella almost vomited when being fed the multiple flavours out of a blended mixture by Morgana.

[@iliketrains3495]

Alex said the worst thing he ever ate on the show was Lou Sanders' burnt porn mag dust, wonder if that was updated as a result of the dog bags task

[@yellowrubberducky81]

@@iliketrains3495 He said besides from that it was hot toothpaste pie, but I think that was pre-series 12. Also, he often says quinoa is the worst thing he's had to eat.

[@ericajohnson2790]

I knew immediately any task with Rhod Gilbert was gonna pop up and that Tea task from season 9 lolol

[@stuartcarden1371]

I wish Sally Phillips would give me one of her special cuddles. They look delightful

[@nigeljames6017]

Rhod being extremely rude with Alexs’ bottom whilst poking out of the hole was so disgustingly wonderful !

[@yellowrubberducky81]

He's so ashamed of himself in the studio yet he repeatedly takes the mans trousers down!

[@michaelj.beglinjr.2804]

@@yellowrubberducky81 ---I'm starting to think that Rhod may have some unexplored aspects of himself that he's never fully explored, and poor Little Alex Horne is paying the price for it.

[@kbg6070]

Bridget’s basket removal was genius!

[@jochent.6816]

This is definitely missing Liza Tarbuck's cake experience

[@jackwang9536]

I think the infamous "cake sit" got its very own video treatment and has been released on other highlight clips. Deservedly so, of course.

[@serendipitousprincess6142]

That was the best/worst thing he's endured to this point. 😅

[@dmeep]

this is the second compilation and i cant imagine the cake not being in the first one

[@redelfshotthefood8213]

Alex’s suffering makes us sympathetic with him.

[@michaelj.beglinjr.2804]

Not me

[@Customfurball28]

i love how absolutely mental rhod is at every possible instance he does the most insane thing he can

[@KeiondraJohnson]

Sally created one of the most unhinged seasons ive ever seen

[@LawTaranis]

Rhod still stands as the most WILDLY UNHINGED constant this show has ever had.

[@DocAcher]

How it is that Rhod has somehow managed to avoid prison baffles me... 🤣🤣🤣

[@iluvdissheet]

The fact that most of the humiliation came from Rhod is a true testimonial to his character. 😂

[@barnabusdoyle4930]

I love that she was waterboarding him at the end of the cuddle task

[@CrystalisQ]

Ah yes, Alex suffering. The best part of the show!

[@Aprillovesmusicals]

Sally is just my favorite shes so bloody funny

[@MedEvil1c]

reading the title, 😅 feels like we need a 12 part series

[@MedEvil1c]

part 2 water torture.. if we swapped Morgana with Katy Wix egg timer

[@idedudink3602]

ive forgot how mental some of the contestants were

[@danteschrotenboer8992]

Bend down Alex. NO I don't want to open up!! 😂 Taskmaster is great.

[@Stuff_And_Things]

Rhod is a very disturbed person. LOL

[@nettieb7604]

tasks like these make me hope that Alex has a safe word 😅

[@KytusGame]

We love you Alex. All you do for us the fans and all the contestants. Never change horne never change ❤

[@ZombiGhostGirl]

Every time I see a clip with Rhod I just. Start crying with laughter.

[@thomasthomasson2319]

Personally I wouldn't consider having Sally Phillips lie on top of me and put cake into my armpits as "suffering"

[@mjlambert210]

this show is everything. alex is everything.

[@ladyflimflam]

It’s nice for Alex that he has a safe whistle.

[@sidhantthounaojam6427]

In series 6, LizaTarbuck making Alex sit bare ass on a cake should also be a honorable mention.

[@musical3lottie]

It's in the first compilation :)

[@ALTnOtes]

My little brother is going to have a Taskmaster themed birthday party and he’s asked me to be the equivalent of Alex so I’m using this as inspiration 😂

[@bmack5265]

You are an amazing older sibling ❤️. I hope the party went well!

[@fionarangel9486]

Just love Sally Phillips 😂😂😂😂 she's one of a kind

The ducks task is one of my all time favorites

fire coming out of the hole is now a meme with the youngsters

His suits are machine washable M&S suits. A lot of laundry is still much cheaper than keep having to dry clean anything 😄

[@shinybugg9156]

Why was covering Alex in food her definition of special?

Well it was definitely special, it’s called the autism special
