Taskmaster Mythos
aka why yes, I’ve watched this show more than once
Alex stays busy by doing Greg’s laundry, watering his plants, and cleaning his legs
Every Christmas Greg and Alex play “Conceal the Pineapple”
Greg occasionally lets Alex wash his clothes in the washing machine
Alex loves his wife and Greg equally
Greg told Alex to shave off his beard and then to grow it back because he didn’t like it
Sitting next to Greg makes Alex feel safe
Greg would be Alex’s cutest thing
Greg took Alex camping and kept getting him to feel what was in his sleeping bag
When they’re at home Alex is only allowed to move around like a snake
Greg makes Alex clean himself like a massive cat
Greg had Alex on a No Solids or Liquids diet for four months
Every morning for an hour and against his will, Greg lets Alex take the dry skin off his feet and gives him a cuddle
Alex’s father was a muffin man
Alex brushes his teeth with Primula Cheese
Alex has a chest tattoo that reads: “When a bird is in a tree and the tree is chopped down, the woodsman has moved the bird”
Alex isn’t allowed a catch phrase
Alex misses his children
Greg loves to see Alex physically punished
Alex’s children call him “Little Alex Horne” and call Greg “daddy”
Alex kisses Greg’s portrait every day while wearing his little trilby
It’s feasible that watching Greg sleep would make Alex sexually aroused
Alex got a sudoku grid tattooed on his tummy, as Greg asked
Alex genuinely wishes he was Greg’s son
Alex sometimes wishes he could distill Greg and pop him in a little bottle around his neck
Alex is always mentally preparing Greg’s next meal
According to Alex, his most exciting thing beginning with “G” is Greg’s special spot
Alex usually wears pink underwear
It takes Alex 12 minutes and 51 seconds to prepare Greg’s bed in the evening
It takes 9 minutes and 34 seconds for Alex to wake Greg with his little kisses
Greg makes Alex tie himself up before going to bed and unties him in the morning
Greg has shown Alex all of his see-through clothes
Alex has exactly 30% fewer bones than the average person
Alex comes to work with his sandwiches cut into fingers because he thinks they “taste better”
It takes Alex 19 minutes and 32 seconds to fully clean Greg
Greg’s bedtime routine involves three aubergines
Naked, Alex looks like a weird ill monkey
Seeing Alex genuinely distressed gives Greg a weird happy feeling in his tummy
Greg gave Alex a phone a couple of months back and all he did was download 600 pictures of muscular women
Alex once told Greg that at some point nearly every day he cries
Fishnet stockings make Alex sexually aroused
Alex agrees that Greg is a handsome man
Much like a Roman emperor, Greg has bathed in asses’ milk and had vigorous sexual liaisons with his personal assistant
Alex collects teapots that look like cottages
Alex likes gentle films, gentle music, and to be held by big strong arms
Statistics are Alex’s foreplay and spreadsheets his post-coital cigarette

[ID: Nine screencaps from Taskmaster. Greg Davies announces to the viewer, “Hello, everybody. I am Greg Davies. Come, take my hand and run, as I guide you through the giddy pleasure fields of Taskmaster. Forget about all the bad things in life, let’s rip off our shirts, hold each other tightly and work up a sweat as we glide through my land.” Off-screen beside him, Alex Horne groans sensually, and Greg looks at him taken aback. The audience laughs and Greg turns back to the camera with amusement. End ID.]

[ID: Four screencaps from Taskmaster. Greg Davies looms threateningly and says, “You dare to wear the cape?” Alex Horne, wearing a long black cape, replies, “I’ve had my name embroidered on the back.” He turns to reveal the cape’s back, which reads “GREG DAVIES’ ASSISTANT*” in large letters, with “*ALEX HORNE” as a tiny footnote. Greg says, “OK, you can keep the cape.” End ID.]

every time i write i think about that maya angelou quote where she talks about her editor asking her why she uses semicolons instead of colons and says she has often responded by threatening to never speak to him again

In March, Noel spoke to Paste Magazine about casting Greg Davies in "The Completely Made-up Adventures of Dick Turpin"!
Noel: “There was a part in Dick Turpin of the rival gang leader who’s a much better highwayman than me. I knew that Greg would be perfect for it. We were sort of writing it for him. But then we had to quickly check if he wanted to do it. And he was so busy at that point, because everyone wanted him. He was like, “I’ll do it if I can. I’ll do it if I can.” We just took a gamble and said, “Look, it’s got to be Greg. We’ll write it for him.” Because I’ve spent so much time with him, it was very easy for me to write in his tone of voice. Then, he comes in and improvises anyway. But you can get the gist of how he would be. Greg is just one of those performers that he’s such a big presence, as well as being a huge man. He’s a giant. But on set, he’s so funny. He’s so giggly and he makes himself laugh. And then everyone in the room laughs. That’s quite contagious. He’s always sort of not taking it seriously and there’s something really brilliant about that. He was a joy to work with.”

My overriding feeling watching them is that what I'm watching is a perfectly happy couple on Bargain Hunt.
