OMG. Hey Alex! Can't believe this is really you because I thought you are too little to comment on TH-cam videos. Be a good boy. Don't suck on your thumb or you'll get a massive gap between your teeth. Stay safe! Never have sex!
That's a long list for me, Taskmaster is a literal rabbit hole. Now I know that Paul from Taskmaster NZ is friends with James Acaster. Yet to find out more of the Kongen Befaler cast, been struggling with the accent.
Tbf, Alex is 33% closer in age to Mawaan, the youngest TM contestant ever, than he is to the oldest, Frank Skinner. Also, Greg is closer to Frank than he is to Alex - although Alex is closer to Greg than he is to Mawaan.
@@sidhackney8831 Funny thing, generational differences. I had an ever so slightly old-fashioned upbringing for someone in their early 30s, as I am now. I’ve seen people wax nostalgically for ‘70s/80s’ artefacts that were a major part of my childhood in the 90s. Yet I definitely am a 90s child in many other ways. I had a Mega Drive! I know when I’ve been Tangoed! I know who Wolf from Gladiators was! I don’t even know what point I’m trying to make. I just hate when my fellow Brits use this ‘Gen XYZ’ bollocks as if it maps exactly onto our culture.
@@kisbie I'm actually an American but knowing the people from Gladiator seems emblematic of the ever so slight generational difference between Mawaan and Alex actually
I feel like Mawan (the real one) got his own back a little on Alex (also the real one), especially with the handshake and putting him on the spot. Great stuff.
Yes Mawaan sems to deliberately like beating people in their own games! Remember with the sneaky pasta snake gate when they turned off the lights he said - "I can play you at your own game". I think it's the chatracter trait of Mawaan. So it'snot that he's good at it, he just for some reason HAS THE INNER MOTIVATION to beat people at their own games.
completely unsurprised that mawaan flips it onto alex. i always enjoy seeing alex break character and giggle and it's hilarious hearing the crew crack up too
Watching the cogs turn in Alex’s head at end trying to think of what Mawaan does was amazing. You could see how terrible he’d be at the tasks just from that haha
@@DisposableLoser i'm crying i just changed my gmail pfp after 6 years and it's immediately acknowledged by day one,, what are the odds,,,, thank you..
He did or at least should win this task! So far, he is the only one who didn't got reeeeally confused halfway through but stayed with the format like a pro. Brilliantly done!
Sadly this isn't a task. Its a promotional thing, they've done it for a few seasons (with tweaks/different themes) but it didn't used to get uploaded here.
Mawaan, the guy who regularly doesn't understand the point of the challenges, completely nailing this mental braintwister of an interview. I seriously think he needs 5 bonus points for this one.
Real Alex was so sweet in this interview. His expression when he said "we're still the same generation I think" 3:45. Such a brilliant idea for an extra/task/bit of fun

Mawaan was one of my favourite contestants that was new to me. And I loved how enthusiastic he was, but also just came across really nice as well. I loved how he turned around the handshake on Alex at the end.
I re-opened the tab after closing it because I realized I did not upvote. Thank you, please keep sharing taskmaster, you are doing such a fantastic job!!!!
Its actually hard to say for sure. Mawaan is a young Millennial (he's my age) but Alex might be an Old Millennial or a Young Gen X. I can't remember how old he is and the cut off date isn't very clear. So they might be.
@@Tamashi88 I cannot forgive Mawaan for being too young to know who Wolf from Gladiators is. Making me feel ancient when he’s only four (and a bit) years younger than me!
@@kisbie I have a secret: I also don't know who Wolf from Gladiators is (but if its a British Thing I at least have the excuse of being from a different country).
I've only just realized the ONE thing wrong with these reversing roles videos. It's jarring which voice says "for more Taskmaster, subscribe now" at the very end. It should be the person pretending to be Alex in the video.
In these interviews its amazing the amount of times Alex tells the contestants that theyre the best contestant thats ever been on the show!!! Im starting to think theres something strange about these interviews...
Can this be done with the past contestants? At least people like Ed Gamble, James Acaster, Nish Kumar and people who are guests on the podcast in general
I wonder if Alex hates Mawaan’s trainers too, if so, is it because Greg hates them and he wants to be cool like Greg, or does he just not like the trainers?
Mawaan himself saying he did really well and then I think back to the time he thought the balls he threw had some major implication in the task afterwards because he forgot he threw them.
Thanks for all the lovely comments and feedback everyone.
Love,
Alex Horne
You played it so well that people still haven't figured out if this is the real you 😂
Alex Horne was so charismatic here, really threw me off

@@FreakingDoomShroom wtf are you on about??
@@VillaDan Playing the game ;)
amazed Mawaan stuck to the "Alex" character when Daisy, Johnny, and Katherine all stumbled upon that bit
Johnny almost made it all the way. I'm glad someone made it through to the end in character.
And Alex almost slipped up at one point too
So simple, yet so complicated. Ha ha.
So simple yet so complicated at the same time.
@@binfacelardgod1906 That should be the tagline for the show - So simple yet so complicated.
If your man is:
- nice to his parents
- loveable
That’s not your man, that’s Mawaan
Mawaan can be my man fo sho
"It's on Dave" - what a troll, I love him
Mawaan nailed this. He also goes a long list of comedians I didn’t know before taskmaster but now love.
Ikr, did not know Jess Knappet, before the show, now I want to marry her.
That's a long list for me, Taskmaster is a literal rabbit hole. Now I know that Paul from Taskmaster NZ is friends with James Acaster. Yet to find out more of the Kongen Befaler cast, been struggling with the accent.

"That's where I go raving... me and my wife and my kids." LOL
interesting to see the helium egg man calling himself too humble immediately after predicting he'd win the series.
? Don't you mean Alex Horne, the creator of Taskmaster, calling Mawaan too humble after predicting he'd win the series?
"Often, you let your ego get the best of you."
"You're too humble. Have some confidence."

damn.. he actually was less mixed up then Alex. Deserves points for that.
He was so much better with staying with the format than everyone else, with Katherine being a close second.
I would say Johnny Vegas was a little better at it than Katherine
@@bean7938 I feel like Johnny Vegas belongs in his own category with that therapy session.
@@krablord Johnny Vegas is actually the manifestation of a voice in Michael Pennington's head, so I guess it's slightly easier for him?
Watching the cogs turn in Alex’s head at end trying to think of what Mawaan does was amazing. You could see how terrible he’d be at the tasks just from that haha
lol Alex does make up/write all the tasks though! So you'd hope he would have some idea how to do them!
the only person to grasp the idea of these interviews
Disappointed Mawaan doesn’t have his nail varnish on for this! Orange to match his top
He should have insisted that Alex 'Mawaan" complete the full look!
I have been waiting all series for Alex in mawaans outfit
I wish they did this for earlier season. Mainly because I would have loved to see Noel Fielding do it
That would be great.
OMG yes! And Alex in that yellow skeleton suit! OR PHIL WANG'S OUTFIT!
I would love to see Bob do this it would be bonkers
@@blorp.1956 Would Alex survive that?
@@lwaves i dont think he will
watching "mawaan" flounder a bit at the end brings so much joy
can't believe he forgot his signature high ten classic
This is the 5 point interview so far. Mawaan killed it.
The team laughing in the background is just brilliant.
Great task!
alex's expressions alone make these interviews the best thing to brighten my day.
You mean Mawaan's
Had no idea who Mawaan Rizwan was before taskmaster and have been falling in love with him throughout this whole series.
So far, the only one that's managed to turn it around on Alex by the end!!
We need Richard Ayoade on this. We just do.
omg yesss
He's not in Series 10
@@2nd3rd1st We meant it as in 'we need him on the show'
@@mrdewarion Was he not? He's Season 1 material
Robert Webb, Richard Ayoade, Lucy Beaumont, Sindhu Vee, Sandi Toksvig. I feel like that would be a killer line up
Mawaan didn't even come in, he was already there.
I feel like Mawaan really caught on to the task for this interview - he hardly tripped up at all on the questions compared to the others 😄
my brain is so slow rn it took me the entire first minute to understand how the hell this interview works
Now watch the same task with Daisy May Cooper and your brain will melt.
@@1969Kismet daisy's brain melted more than mine, i believe

He's handled the format the best so far.
This is the best interview series I've ever seen.
The way Mawaan absolutely held Alex down and said SAY UNCLE with the handshake thing was amazing! High ten lmao
He did or at least should win this task! So far, he is the only one who didn't got reeeeally confused halfway through but stayed with the format like a pro. Brilliantly done!

"it's on Dave..."
MARRY ME MAWAAN.
Please upload the ’saying the most words’ task. Watching Daisy swear incessantly was a joy
Mawaan, the guy who regularly doesn't understand the point of the challenges, completely nailing this mental braintwister of an interview. I seriously think he needs 5 bonus points for this one.
He missed the opportunity to get Alex twerking :/
He tried to get him to do the ketchup song, which would've been so funny had 'Mawaan' done that.
He... Talks to himself and consistently has mental arguments about nothing.
Too good at this.
The more I watch Alex Horne do anything, the more I realize that the awkwardness is less of an act and more so his entire loveable being.
That was my favorite interview!!
Real Alex was so sweet in this interview. His expression when he said "we're still the same generation I think" 3:45. Such a brilliant idea for an extra/task/bit of fun
Can we get Claudia winkleman on series 11 of taskmaster her chaotic energy would be so funny to watch
Invite not get. Unless you just want to bundle her into a van.
Yes yes yes please!
NO!!!! She irritating AF.
5:38 is the first time we’ve seen Alex accidentally break persona..
Or was it Mawaan ?
Mawaan didn't skipped a bit!
He seems to deliberately like beating people in their own games!

I mean he's right, he is very lovable
Incredible! Well done Mawaan! This is the best one yet purely for how he kept composure throughout.
He was so much better than the rest!
It really is a very bingeable show!
There's a twinkle in Alex's face when he does the 'high 10'.
Mawaan is so loveable. My favourite this series!
I re-opened the tab after closing it because I realized I did not upvote. Thank you, please keep sharing taskmaster, you are doing such a fantastic job!!!!
"You're too humble" - LOL right, that's the impression I've got of Mawaan...
This had me in tears. The last couple minutes just killed me.
That's where I go raving... me and my wife and my kids
This gave me very much mock interview at secondary school vibes
Honestly one of the best interviews
Mawan is correct. I am currently binging the show
Mawaan has been pretty ordinary at some of the tasks, but he NAILED this one.
Would you ever consider releasing a box set with all of the episodes uncut? The outtakes are some of my favourite bits!
I'd pay good money for that extra footage, I'd love that!
Absolutely blown away by the fact that mawaan in 28. Wouldve guessed like 19 or 20
He does look quite young, but as someone who's 21, I'd say he definitely older than that, lol
I’d never heard of him before this season but I love Mawaan
I wish Alex as Mawaan would have done his nails.
Absolutely loving Mawaan
loved the very up to date reference to the ketchup dance.
He's the only one that hasn't been confused by the reversal
Alex and Mawaan actually wouldn't be the same generation - Mawaan would comfortably be a Millenial, while Alex just skirts into Gen X.
I’m not fond of importing these nonsense American terms. As far as I’m concerned, your ‘generation’ is your school year, and that’s the end of it!
"We're still the same generation I think"
Well, in the same way I'm 20 and have a cousin that's 45 xD
Its actually hard to say for sure. Mawaan is a young Millennial (he's my age) but Alex might be an Old Millennial or a Young Gen X. I can't remember how old he is and the cut off date isn't very clear. So they might be.

omg I love these reverse interviews so much 😄💯
Mawaan as Alex did better in his role than Alex as Mawaan, kudos!
Aah.
Love Alex keeping the Alex character underneath the Mawaan character.
I only know Mawaan from Taskmaster but he's one of my favourite contestants ever. I really wanted him to win and got upset when Greg picked on him!
ok but he crushed this
"i said that too quick"
Been a fan of mawaan's since 2014. So happy for him.
These are brilliant. I need more of these Horne interviews.
Could you bring Bob Mortimer back just to do one of these? That would be brilliant.
The title is wrong, this is clearly Mawaan interviewing Alex
Superbly funny interview, seriously could watch new episodes every day! 😆
i love mawaan. justice for mawaan. mawaan is a bad bitch. his points book should have won 5 points and that's that on that.
I'm really loving this style of interview. Mawaan did an especially great job.

That bit was already pre-recorded by (real) Alex Horne.
I've watched all five and my brain has melted.
I love the crew cracking up in the background 😆
In these interviews its amazing the amount of times Alex tells the contestants that theyre the best contestant thats ever been on the show!!!
Im starting to think theres something strange about these interviews...
9:10 that WHEEZE 🤣😂🤣
Mawaan has got so much potential. He just needs the right vehicle.
"You're very thorough"
"That's what she said"
That ending- superb messing with someone's mind.
❤️ Mawaan's awesome! I love these interviews in general, but Mawaan's my favourite so far. I'm looking forward to Richard's as well.
Can this be done with the past contestants? At least people like Ed Gamble, James Acaster, Nish Kumar and people who are guests on the podcast in general
and Noel!
Stand-Ups and others who performed well
