Alex Horne: The Giant Inflatable Duck
Alex Horne joins Dilly Carter with three suitably quirky items 鈥 his Taskmaster socks, a relic from Anfield Stadium and his 鈥渉orn鈥 trophy.
On this episode of Sort Your Life Out Unpacked, Taskmaster extraordinaire, 鈥楲ittle鈥 Alex Horne, shares his big dreams for his new home to be filled with noise, colour and chaos 鈥 but admits it鈥檚 currently overrun with builders and ladybirds.
Alex brings in three suitably quirky items from home for Dilly Carter to unpack 鈥 from socks he鈥檚 kept from each episode of Taskmaster (that is, if someone hasn鈥檛 already bought the worn ones鈥), to a relic from Anfield Stadium, and what he proudly calls 鈥渢he horn of the Horne Section.鈥
From pockets turned inside out on his bedside table to a cherished Chesham pub he hopes to recreate inside his own home, Alex explains how his living space reflects 鈥渢he funniest job in the world鈥 鈥 dreaming up ridiculous tasks for comedians to carry out. He also opens up about how he separates his role on Taskmaster from being a dad, while still taking inspiration from family life.
Dilly puts her football knowledge to the test and she鈥檚 left seriously impressed by Alex鈥檚 inventive upcycling of his many vacuum cleaners 鈥 but can she convince him to declutter his home before his children have to?
