Lord Dr. Greg Davies - "Have you got one?"
Little Alex Horne - "I'm getting one in January..."
This video was recommended to me 20 minutes after the one you’re referring to.
Which video is that?
@nijnij3988 The bloopers for the New Year's Special, I believe.
I'm sure the algorithm has sent most of us here from there
he never lies that man
I adore that she introduced him as "Little Alex Horne"! Alex is the bestest! 5 points!
So happy to exist in the Era of Dr. Little Alex Horne. Congratulations!
Little Dr. Alex Horne. Little is more important title than dr.
Genuinely so impressed Alex Horne put these extra restrictions on himself fo no reason and still killed the speech!
I mean, he is 100% disqualified ;) .. zero points to Alex!
Greg would have to disqualify him - said 'f' mistakenly in asides 3x but loved this so much! Downstairs loo it goes. ❤
Oh, way more than 3 f’s. At least a dozen!
@@johnlovegrove9871 Not to mention the blatant manipulation o* the time keeping device. And that a*ter he scolded Noel *or it so *erociously
@@johnlovegrove9871 I guess he was quite *ucky... Oh, I mean lucky :P
I couldn't believe it, I was just going through the campus on Monday and saw Alex Horne! I just went "Is that Alex??" And I asked him for a picture and he took one with me! Legend! Congrats on the degree!
Alex is immensely genuine. Wrote his acceptance speech in true Alex fashion. He may not have properly completed his task with the restrictions set by himself, but it was still great. Well done Little Alex Horne!
Unfortunately, he IS disqualified.
Lets not forget Hometasking during the lockdown. Alex Horn is a treasure.
This is the best honourary doctorate degree presentation and speeches that I’ve ever heard! The presenter’s words were heartfelt and touching, and Alex’s speech was not only funny but meaningful as well. He managed to be hilarious without being trite, just fantastic! Congratulations Alex!
*antastic 😉
Sending a sincere congratulations to Little Alex Horne. I have no relation to this man other than watching him through a screen, but I feel a sense of pride seeing his work be recognized and honored. I hope the degree hangs nicely next to his loo's BAFTA
Ditto to the power of Ditto
Such a perfect tribute ❤
The CZcams algorithm suggested Taskmaster to me early in the pandemic, and I am so glad it did. Alex’s creations have brought a lot of joy. SchoolTasking was news to me, but what a great idea. I tend to think honorary degrees are cheesy, but I understand this is the highest honor the school could give to show their appreciation, and Alex deserves all the appreciation he gets.
"with a bit o* *uck..." 😂 hilarious man. Congrats!
I was expecting him to blow his whistle at the end of the speech 😂
Congrats, Alex! Something I appreciate about him is how generous he is - allowing other countries to make their own format of TM, of School Tasking, of making the show available for free on YT for folks outside the UK.
Very big moment for Very Little Alex Horne 🥲 His speech reminds me of the German book "Der Fönig" (The Fing), where a king decides to swap the letters k and f, it's great!
fing in hungarian means fart :D the more you know
I thought he was joking about the doctorate in January! I think he deserves it.
Excited for this. But I do think we need to review the footage. I'm pretty sure that Alex paused the timer. If that's the case he did go over his time and I do think they need to take his Doctorate back due to disqualification. Greg will have to weigh in
Little Alex Horne you have created something that’s absolutely genius, inclusive, supportive and full of joy ! Thank you the world needed this!
I love this man, he deserves any and all accolades out there. He's such a delight ul and lovely man, Taskmaster was a stroke of genius and I'm ever so grate ul for Dave and later Channel 5 (i think) for putting it on CZcams. I also love No More Jockeys, they're all just such a laugh.
You mean “stroke o genius”.
Also -or Dave and -or putting
I just met Dr. Horne in a hotel buffet coincidently 20 minutes after watching this. What a nice bloke, even his family didn't seem to mind that I briefly interrupted their evening. Congrats on the honour Alex! He did that thing which true gentlemen do, he introduced himself even after I approached him - total class act!
This made me surprisingly emotional. Way to go Alex!
Right? Funny that!
Congratulations to you, Dr. Alex Horne, from one who also has received an honorary doctorate, in Divinity in my case! Your speech was brilliantly suited to the honour awarded you! As a fan of Taskmaster, I am delighted that the University has recognized the quality and value of a show you have created, and that its reach lies beyond my laptop screen to help students learn ways to cope with the insanity that proliferates our world! Thank You for creating the situations that prompt us to laugh, and thank you even more for your willingness to expand your gifts as a teaching aid to a new generation.
This was ucking inspiring to watch. Way to go, Alex Horne!
Please tell me Greg now has to address Alex as Doctor Horne!!! 🤣
Congrats, well deserved! I hope this gets mentioned in one of the banter sections for series 17…
Isn't it already mentioned in the Champions of Champions 3?
@@Snaakie83 I just saw the outtakes video posted ten mins ago on the main TM channel and it’s totally mentioned there, yes (along with Greg already having one). Don’t remember it from the aired episode but that doesn’t mean it didn’t happen there too!
Dr. Little Alex Horne might be my favourite living human.
This caused me to laugh so hard my vent alarmed 3 times during that 4.5 minute speech and my dog came to check on me. 😂😂
Congratulations Dr. Horne. You truly deserve it.
"No more doctors" "Rules me out."
So proud of him :') Very well deserved
He did not look comfortable at all in front of everyone.
But he is a very clever man and the accolades are deserved.
Congratulations Little Alex Horne.
Congratulations Alex no one deserves this more than you, well done!
Alex Horne is a ucking legend.
Antastic. Well deserved. I am trying to start a science and reason education/promotion group here in Ottawa and TM, my favourite show by a light year, has given me inspiration to think about ways to encourage people to think in more creative and logical ways.
I offer my most mightiest bravo in recognition of your well deserved honour. The impact you've had, not just as laid out in the speaches in the video, but as a creative person - responsibile for the format, is immense. So many moments of joy, experienced by so many people, that can be traced back to Alex and his idea. There's no telling the true extent of his positive impact. People who can make us smile are priceless treasures, we love you as such.
Beautiful.
Dr Little Alex Horne!!
Congratulations Alex!
Congratulations to @DrAliStruthers for creating the school tasking program and @AlexHorne for lending his support to such a wonderful project. Thank you for investing in primary school children, especially those from disadvantaged backgrounds. I hope one day I get to engage with those future lawyers, regulators, and policy makers you are fostering to talk all things Space Law.
I graduated on the same day and I’m so sad I didn’t to see him !!! But I’m very happy for our little Alex Horne
What an incredible person!
Congratulations Alex you earned this moment for yourself!
Alex deserves it. I hope he knows how inspirational the show has been for so many people in so many different fields across the globe ❤
What a lovely man. Lovely legs as well.
Congratulations Doctor Alex Horne!
This is where the editing team would splice together the Fs he missed omitting, I counted 2 lol
So well deserved! Congratulations!!!
This made m cry
Heartfelt congratulations from the US, Dr Alex. Now to work on that MBE.
Normally Alex makes me laugh. This time he made me cry ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Congratulations! Such a #abulous speech in #ront o# all the students graduating #rom this #ine institution! 👏👏👏
I love Alex and wish him all the very best in the future. Huge congratulations 🍾🥂 Happy Silver Wedding Anniversary also. A success story all round ❤ 👏👏👏 Edit: Please come to Australia 🇦🇺 🏴 🙏
8:23 "20-ith weddi... oh, that's F(!)ine , 20th"
Disqualified :)
Well done Alex Horne and the team of TM Education! Now lets get that gown and outfit into the show for a future task!
So pleased for him, taskmaster is a delight and he deserves good things. ♥
Super happy seeing him get this doctorate and grinning to myself as he stopped and started his own clock at one point :D
This is so lovely!! ❤❤
need a greg davies reaction video to this where he says NIL POINT (french accent)
That was absolutely antastic :) Bless him. Richly deserved.
The David Coeress dis rap on Taskmaster NZ season 2 episode 6 is legendary.
Uck. No. Luck. I knew this was gonna happen.
Pure genius
Congrats Dr. Little Alex Horn! 📯
This is awesome ! I love Alex
Absolutely deserved! Way to go “little” Alex! 👍🏻
Way to go, Alex!
amazing!!!
Ecpencting s17 to contain "write an honorary doctorate acceptance speech to the taskmaster. You have 5 minutes. Your time starts now"
Alex is just a wonderful, creative and funny person. 👏🏼 from Tasmania. Greg and Alex are both honorary Dr but only Greg asked the question ' can I be called Dr Davies now?'
Sorry to say Alex but you are a great guy!! Thanks for all you do!
never though someone could talk about taskmaster so seriously
God bless Alex Horne.
Wow thank you, actually inspiring
Great little Alex Horne ❤
👏👏👏 Well done and well-deserved❣️ Congraduations. 🎓😄 🎉🥳
Serious question, is it now Little Doctor Alex Horne or Doctor Little Alex Horne?
Tsk tsk Alex! Doubly disqualified. He paused his timer at 11:30 and started it again at 12:20 right before he picked it back up!
I noticed that, we need a slow motion replay. Instant disqualification.
congratulations
Very well done, that boy there!
What a wonderul way to receive your Doctorate o Letters Alex :)
What a ucking legend.
Greg: 'Sorry but you said the letter F during your speech and therefore I can give you no points.'
Top bloke and we'll earned.
Maro Itoje @12:37 . What a lineup
Little Alex Horne
I hope he keeps the hat during the next season
☆ absolutely •antastic, ▪︎unny and spectacular!
☆ Taskmaster is one o▪︎ my ▪︎avorite shows and
Alex is my ▪︎avorite!❤
That nod to Piers didn’t exactly appear to include any endorsement.
brilliant
No whistle at the end of the timer? I'm a bit disappointed.
Awesome job, Dr. L. A. Horne!!!! And if anyone thinks that "with a bit o' 'uck" was an accident, you don't understand English humour at all 🤣 🤣 🤣
I love the out-take in TM when they're all talking about how most of them have honorary doctorates...
awwww dr. little Alex Horne
Very well deserved, (little) Alex Horne 👍😜
Alex trying to open his doctorate on stage😂😭
Edit: also does Alex think ppl don't see how he cheated with his timer?
Noel Fielding meddled with his timing system from behind the podium. Alex has just restarted it. :D
Hard to time the laughs
Dr. Little Alex Horne! Is Greg proud of his little fur ball?
Good on Alex.
In the next series, will we see a task involving a mortar board?
During a work retreat, we had a team building exercise, I trie dto bend the rules a la Taskmaster, arguing that what was not explicitly denied was acceptable.
What I love the most about Taskmaster is arrogant self absorbed celebrities showing themselves at their TRUE worth!!!!!!!
WELL done Alex!!!!!
Your doctorate is deserving! However! I think it should be a Doctorate of AWESOMENESS!!!!!!!
What a *un address 🤍 congrats Alex!
7:56 "You must not use the letter "F"... So from NOW ON, that is what I'm going to do. 8:00 I'm not good at winking UN*F*ORTUNATELY" ~~ Oh, Alex! Just 1 second into the task.
I'm afraid you are disqualified. All the information was written on the Task.
You can check the replay. Heartbreaking.
Not as heartbreaking as the Joe Wilkinson potato throwing replay,
but still quite unfortunate.
what a silly hat. i love it.
