Luke develops outdated views

Luke comes into the study wearing a top hat, grey wig and beard, and pink Taskmaster bath robe, and carrying a walking stick. He has also applied some make-up to make his face appear older.

He instructs Tom Cashman to ask him about immigrants, so that he can express his negative sentiment towards them (despite, as he notes, evidence that they are "quite good for the economy").

He then also expresses his love of 'negative gearing' (as an owner of multiple properties), Fox, Sky News, and God.

Before heading "back to the bus stop", he offers Tom the opportunity of some advice from an old man. However, when Tom asks him what his biggest regret in life is, he becomes hostile, and ends up answering that his biggest regret is talking to Tom in the first place.

In the studio, Luke insists that "old people wear top hats", and claims that he was about 197 during his attempt. However, Tom Gleeson judges that he didn't seem frail enough to be that old, so decides that he was more like 75, giving Luke a total age difference of 35 years. This secures him fourth place in the task.
