I crave to be a happily married man and then have a wrath-filled, toxic, confusing as hell relationship with a man whom I chose to host the game show I came up with
Greg Davies doesn't make the most convincing sadistic daddy. And Alex isn't the most convincing bitchboy either. If they were, it would be funnier but I think they'd lost the audience after a couplec episodes.
Obviously this has no bearing on Greg Davies and Alex Horne the Commedians because Alex has a wife and for Greg it's rude to speculate, but the personas? The characters? Greg Davies the Taskmaster and Little Alex Horne the Taskmaster's Assistant are in a relationship of intense and firey passion.
I mean, Greg *has* to be bi, right? He so casually says, "I like men, I like women" is such a non jokeish way, like that just felt like he's 'straight' up saying it
I kinda got the impression that to Greg gender is just another attribute, not really more important than e.g. hair color or height, so kinda pansexual I guess. He certainly seems to be happy to put that out there, like mentioning unprompted on several occasions that he doesn’t have children. Feels like he considers himself a role model for being free to express who you are.
And Little Alex Horne is a deeply disturbed man who holds every wrong view in the world, so actually, his big man Greg Davies is doing the world a favour
that part when Alex is called out for having himself tied up - LMAO. It feels like it's not really in character either bc they're acknowledging he's really the one who comes up with everything. and he's just genuinely that flustered. then there's the "special cuddle" task
I had that experience the opposite way around. I have this bad habit of always immediately checking out AO3 for every new book/movie/show/celebrity I discover, not to really read much but just to glance over the most popular tags and stuff, to get a vibe. So I did that with these guys after having watched very little of the show. None of those moments had come up, and I was completely baffled by what I encountered on AO3 and why it was so unanimous. Over the course of watching several full series, I slowly kept going "Oooh... Yeah okay... No right I get it now, it does make sense..."
they're even aware. it gets mentioned on the fucking show. greg describes it as "perverts on the internet" skfndkdn there's even a tag for telling Alex not to read the fic in question lmao
I don’t understand 😭😭 I’ve never seen two men have so much obvious sexual tension and yet just such a genuine wholesome friendship Genuinely confusing 💀
Its hilarious, basically a bunch of their comedian friends competing to do absurd tasks in absurd ways for absurd prizes. There's an official youtube channel with several full episodes. Doesn't necessarily matter what season you start with, so I'll just say the ones with Rhod Gilbert and James Acaster are generally considered favorites.
Sometimes you just get that feeling. I'm 20 and maybe 3 or 4 years ago, I played hockey with my club and on the opposite team there was a really hot woman who I have only ever seen in that match and never spoken to, but I still think about her. And of course, Annie Lennox from Eurythmics was my lesbian awakening.
Oh I have been looking everywhere for more compilations like this and having this pop up in my recommended is a genuine miracle. Thank you for making this. They sure do love just saying stuff on this show huh...
OH I JUST REALIZED YOU'RE ALSO THE ONE WHO MADE THE GAY CHICKEN COMPILATION!! I literally watch that video like once a week, thank you for another banger
@@jsefilms4650 If I may make some suggestions for a possible 3rd installment of these compilations in the future, Alex being introduced as "so servile it's vile" (champion of champions 1) and "obscenely obedient and obediently obscene" (S6 EP2) are definitely.... something...
I find Greg Davies incredibly magnetic, esp in profile with the arteries popping out of his thick stallion-like neck. Yes, I've thought LONG and HARD about this...
there is nothing that makes me happier than this. sorry i mean there is nothing that fills my heart with joy more than- uh i mean this is my favorite- no sorry i mean i am normal about this.
on a real life, doyleian, outside the show level, i want a friendship like that. the trust, the comedy drift compatibility, the easygoing playfulness. on a pretendsies, watsonian, inside the show level, i want a friendship like that for different reasons
Anyone shocked by the gay dynamic of Taskmaster should watch some of the stuff from the We Are Klang days. Taskmaster is vanilla in comparison. (definitely NSFW. Or kids. Or your gran.)
Has anyone else noticed that in the early series, Alex has stretched out ear piercings, yet in later series his ears are back to normal? I think they might be cloning him
gauged ears can return to their normal size after a while depending on what size they were stretched to and how much elasticity ur ear has (source: i have gauged ears lol)
There will be no kinkshaming here, thank you! There is other context, if you're able to look for it. Mostly they're just leaning into each others' weirdness but there is...... *ambiguity* Of course Greg's very first intro to Alex in season 1 episode 1 "I am aided and *fluffed* by my assistant...." so it has been going on long before the fanfiction. No kinkshaming! 🤣🤣
I suspect he's just quite comfortable with himself. He was a Secondary School Drama teacher. The best survival tool you've got is to learn how to twist insults from kids into compliments, because it totally knocks the wind out of their sails 😂
Yes! I have recently decided to radically accept that people who say gay things are, in fact, gay. No "Oh, he's probably just joking" or "she didn't mean it like that lol" anymore. If you say gay things, you're gay to me, until explicitly stated otherwise.It's 2023. When a man says something that alludes to him being attracted to other men, I'm going to believe him. Cause otherwise... what are you saying? Why are we laughing? Is queerness still just a joke to you? No. You say gay things, you're gay, as far as I'm concerned.
If this is anything like the tv shows I've been to, they're probably reading the stuff they say directly into the camera off of a teleprompter. So shoutout to the team - someone has written this and someone else has approved it!
Alex and Greg are not in any sort of sexual relationship. Alex and Greg's TM persona's ARE in a deeply disturbing codependent sexual relationship. Don't ship real people. ❤
Why would one very popular show which gets great viewing figures need to go, to make room for another good comedy show? Why couldn't both exist? They're not even from the same TV channel so one has no bearing on the other. Such a bizarre comment.

Who doesn’t want that relationship with Greg Davies?
@@hotdog8109 honestly!!!
Tom n Greg from succession ???
I feel like taskmaster is just an excuse for Greg to have a confusing sexual affair with Alex Horne, all while on public TV
Greg Davies doesn't make the most convincing sadistic daddy. And Alex isn't the most convincing bitchboy either. If they were, it would be funnier but I think they'd lost the audience after a couplec episodes.

It's so intense seeing it distilled like this, oml.
Yes
Compilations that make you go "oh so my straight friends ARE the crazy ones this is on purpose and often bahahah"
I appreciate Greg being violently bisexual and flirty and Alex going along with it
"I love you and i love my wife, equally" - me when the Interviewer asks a little bit about myself during the job interview
Me when writing my prof an email for an extension

And the one we’re they have to tie themselves or him up to keep him from catching them.
Also known as Sally Phillips sexually molesting him, lol.
At this point I lose my marbles every episode asking whether they have a sub dom relationship or just a fucking insane commitment to the bit
there's being committed to the bit and there's being pliant, docile and subservient to the bit
They have like, a mild commitment to the bit at best lmao.
@@arlopullman4926 Did you not see the ep where they literally kiss
@@yeethittter1285 did you not see the hundreds of times they made it clear they're obviously not in a relationship? Lmao.
....there's a fanfic about them called "commit to the bit"
The way I know in my bones that the A03 page for these two is so atrociously filthy
It is. Apparently 😏

@@wall-e1793 I have read things I can never unread. This will be a mere addition to my collection of forbidden knowledge
**cough-link?-cough**
when i first found the taskmaster youtube channel i thought greg and alex were genuinely married
Taskmaster, or as I like to call it: 5 comedians and a studio audience are invited to our couple's therapy.
Alex sitting on Greg's lap and calling him daddy is by far the best thing to be broadcast on British television
I don’t understand 😭😭
I’ve never seen two men have so much obvious sexual tension and yet just such a genuine wholesome friendship
Genuinely confusing 💀
“It’s not tension”
As someone who has a raging crush on greg davies this is extremely affirming
Never quite realised just how intense they were
alex reminiscing about their daily special cuddle and greg forcing alex to eat sour candies are also great moments
I feel like I’ve gone insane
Understandable
just remembered the part where greg put alex on all fours and then jumped on him im going insane actually
I don't know what taskmaster is, nor who most of these folks are. However, this may be the funniest thing I've ever seen
Then you’re in for a treat if you decide to watch the series
Its hilarious, basically a bunch of their comedian friends competing to do absurd tasks in absurd ways for absurd prizes. There's an official youtube channel with several full episodes. Doesn't necessarily matter what season you start with, so I'll just say the ones with Rhod Gilbert and James Acaster are generally considered favorites.
It’s basically a bunch of comedians being made to preform the stupidest tasks greg and Alex (2 other very famous uk comedians) can come up with
it is, surprisingly, not about these two being homosexual lovers
I’m 22 but there’s just something about Greg. I want him.
me too. even weirder is that i am a lesbian
@@ugh.why.I think it's his bisexual charm

Same. Same...
It's just so funny to me the dynamic they have for the show and then irl Alex Horne is married and has kids lmao.
there is nothing that makes me happier than this. sorry i mean there is nothing that fills my heart with joy more than- uh i mean this is my favorite- no sorry i mean i am normal about this.
the bit from champion of champions "can I use the word that we use" what the fuck

Four minutes straight? There isn't much stuff straight about this video
I love that Greg and Alex play their parts like an old married couple with a Dom/sub dynamic!
I feel like they've ratcheted the rhetoric down in recent seasons
Anyone shocked by the gay dynamic of Taskmaster should watch some of the stuff from the We Are Klang days. Taskmaster is vanilla in comparison. (definitely NSFW. Or kids. Or your gran.)
The only time I’ve ever been creeped out by their relationship is when Greg referred to it as father and son….
I have so many... so, so many questions.
Just a normal British panel show ig
My only question is: is there more, please? 😂
@@peterclarke7240 well here’s part one th-cam.com/video/aITjLKKN-ek/w-d-xo.html
they're so normal
I think "it's not tension" sums it up
people need to use him saying "im not straight enough to understand rap" from s14e4 more tbh
I think he said "street" and not "straight"
"I'm into it mate"
never even realised how much they do it when I watched the show 😂
Their banter is still fantastic 😁
Oh, I've seen this show, and it's more than 4 minutes straight, mate.
Title lied... there's nothing straight here
This is the only thing I have ever seen of taskmaster and honestly I want to keep it that way
Has anyone else noticed that in the early series, Alex has stretched out ear piercings, yet in later series his ears are back to normal? I think they might be cloning him
gauged ears can return to their normal size after a while depending on what size they were stretched to and how much elasticity ur ear has (source: i have gauged ears lol)
I thought it was just one episode, so probably sfw makeup
It was a one off special fx, I think contestants were supposed to bring in something starting with g, if I remember right.
They weren't real lol.
It was a prank for 1 episode in series 7. He was then "punished" in the next episode. *totally* normal, not-at-all-kinky panel show...... 🤣🤣🥰🥰
they literally just get on stage and say words with no regard for anything at all
Powerful homoeroticism, I really enjoyed it
Jesus Christ you really came out swinging putting the g spot one first lmao. Isn’t this on television? Wild.
It IS on television, and they act like this twice in a show and then I go insane when no one ever acknowledges their dynamic.
@@jsefilms4650make more of these, Greg flirts with other contestants.. it's cutee
This is... it just is, isn’t it?
THANK YOU FOR THIS this is it this is the entire mood when watching them thank you for putting it all together hdhhshd
Never watched taskmaster. Very interesting introduction to it
I wish these middle aged british men adopted me, man
I love them so much- this vid captured some of my fav moments and made me lol hahahaha

This is amazing 😆 I love the personas they have
I've seen that thing Alex does with his wrist. All the sexual tension just evaporated in an instant.
OH MY GOD???? OH. MY GOD? I WAS NOT EXPECTING IT TO BE THAT. MUCH. HUH
Greg and Alex Are Brilliant
YAY
I really hope they see this 😂😂😂
Oh my god, this is so much. Fuck, that pet play one??? I’m dead
Does anybody know the name of the stock music at the beginning of the video? I've tried to find it but never could
I can’t remember what it’s called but it’s the always sunny in Philadelphia intro music
I mean when you put it all together like that. Father and son, yeah sure 😅
