I have no idea how he comes up with so many tasks for the Taskmaster. He’s amazing plus he participates. He has swallowed tea aft another person spat it into a cup. He ate dog food. I’ve seen his butt more than I saw my husbands.
I agree with her, he said his garden is on a slight incline. I take that as looking at it on floor level from the house, it inclines, as in goes up. Like you wouldn’t automatically assume that’s from the bottom of the gardens perspective. Like if were to say my garden declines, I think most would assume that it’s a somewhat hill and the house sits at the top of it.
incline is synonimous with slope, it can go up or down. To decline means to refuse or to decrease; your garden doesn't declines (unless you mean in a figurative way, as in deteriorates), your garden's *altitude* does though, so maybe you can say that your garden declines in altitude.
I once map a contraption with marbles and card and bits of fishing line that opened a crappy latch on my bedroom door!! Proper Rube Goldberg... I was only 16... it was the 90s, we didn't have phones
When I was in high school, my history teacher, instead of giving us a written final class exam since we had all done a bunch of college entrance exams/etc, had us each build a Rube Goldberg device as a final project. The only two rules/stipulations were that it had to consist of at least three different "elements"/moving parts, and that it had to perform a mundane task. I used a tube with a marble that rolled and offset a scale with a lit candle, which burned and severed nylon string that was holding open a rat trap with a kitchen knife attached that ultimately cut a sandwich in half.

WILTY fans: that makes no sense!

that's exactly what I said when they made a ruckus.

my exact thoughts
Alex reads the cards like it’s a taskmaster challenge.
Alex is perfect for this, naturally awkward so anything comes across as a lie lol
But they believed him.
And he's not awkward at all.
@@nagualdesign Maybe it just seems that way because his character on Taskmaster is a subordinate of Greg who gets belittled all the time. (But really he's an executive producer of the whole show)
@@ex0stasis72 But he purposely hired Greg as the Taskmaster instead of himself so as to have a more commanding personality for the TM
Lee is legendary quick, but cone on David's comeback to AJ's "peak boredom" was fantastic.
Same thought
It gives me SO MUCH joy knowing where Little Alex Horne writes his brilliance!!!!
Love how Joel Dummett doesn’t seem at all interested by this story, and then suddenly perks up at the mention of a metal bin lid 2:15
I can believe that he wouldn't bring a phone or clock of any kind to his shed because sometimes it's nice to write with zero distractions around.
I can believe he built all this because he preferred the distraction of making it to writing!
@@Alexand3ry While being able to tell himself that it was Taskmaster-esque!
I was convinced this was a lie, as it would be much easier for someone to text him.
@@Marklovesdrama, some people don't like having phones when they write exactly because it's so easy to get distracted by them: someone writes a message or you get on the internet to check something and get lost in researching.
@@a_wild_Kirillian That is a good point.
He built an elaborate contraption for lunch, at which point he and Gromit have some Wensleydale cheese.
Porridge today... Tuesday.
There's this show in aware of where contestants have to build contraptions like this to solve tasks. He'd be good on it.
Why on Earth would he ever appear in Robot Wars?
Rob was so quick with that "decline" counter
This story was so Alex Horne it just had to be true
1:30 observe the first time Lttle Alex Horne has used a conventional measurement
What's 60 meters in Baked beans?
* Little *
@@ThatCoalSoul oh thanks mate, I didn't know how to spell little
It’s Little Alex Horne!

Do you sleep in a different room to your husband? 😂
@@theparanoidandroid3583 Yeah, and she lets him know when it's sexy time using an elaborate golf ball and pipe system
@@TCM_Hutchie don't forget the hose
A string attached to a bell going through a PVC pipe would be brilliant in that circumstance.
But it's easier to roll a ball through the pipe than to get a string through it
60 meters?? That's longer than my entire street! Then 8 meters is thinner than my own garden...
thats actually entertaining to do this
keep doing things in life...be it silly... coz it keeps your life lively and memorable
If he had soup for lunch everyday he wouldn't need a ball.
Oh that is *so* Alex! 🥰🥰
Lee: That's sadly how my wife Died.
David: 🤣
I think the show is going fine XD I died

60 meter garden is an actual micro trek! That's enormously long for a garden. haha!
I don't understand this task
All the information he needs is on the card
The task is to send the ball back through the pipe without using magic.
@@ddtsnorter3656or camera trickery
It's peak Little Alex Horne, so I knew it was true!
Alex Is Brilliant
David's wave @ 2:55 "...anyway..."
I can't believe Lee Mack's wife got crushed by a giant snowball.
Didnt know Graham Potter would be so good on WILTY
i think he’d do really well on this show called Taskmaster, idk
Im so sorry I missed this episode
I mean, from what I've seen from fifteen seasons of Taskmaster, He has lots of ridiculous ways of doing very simple things.
Is it me or does it look like the actual pipe runs in the neighbour's garden?
All the information was on the card.
Now make a pasty without using your hands and feed it to me through this pringles container.
Where is the full episodes of new seasons?????😢
All the information is on the task
I thought it was true when he said it was a writing shed. Because a lot of writers turn off their phone and notifications etc when they’re writing
I wonder how he tells her when he's prepared lunch.
He says, "Lunch is ready".
Alex hasn't been allowed to prepare food since the time he made cheesy pasta for the kids and they all vomited
I once map a contraption with marbles and card and bits of fishing line that opened a crappy latch on my bedroom door!! Proper Rube Goldberg... I was only 16... it was the 90s, we didn't have phones
When I read "it was the 90s" I fully expected it to turn into a Henning Wehn joke and how you did something outrageously unbelievable back then.

She should ring a little bell.
Like his wife is taking the time to make his lunch while taking care of the 16 kids
And when his soup is ready she just pours it down the pipe
So its not an elaborate contraption is just a massive bit of guttering
That was not 60 meters. _Maybe_ 15.
I agree, that’s a decline.
I really thought it was a lie
Just have lunch at 1pm every day mate
Rube Goldberg would be proud.
No folks. Not double entendres.
Alex has a she-shed?
👍🙂
First time seeing him without a suit. Looks unnatural
I remember when this program was funny.
Mean a string tied to a can would work
Could blow in the wind and trigger false alarms
You should have made it bigger so she could just slide your lunch down to you
It is a decline.
Lee Mack copying jokes for life 💙
Yeah... Directional wifi antenna or even Ethernet would have been so much more useful.
But also not as fun! Who cares?!
??? This is old... Show something New please 😢
Never thought Alex would be racist but here we are.
…. Point me to when that happened?
Huh?
@KerriEngland please, we just gonna act like nothing happened? Lol white privilege at its finest 🙄
what?
When was he racist?
