Assistant Intro

And next to me, a man who told me his father has only ever given him one Christmas present in his life: a beautifully wrapped piece of Welsh slate that had one solitary word engraved upon it. That word? Toad. It's... little Alex Horne!

Taskmaster's Sign-off

So, what have we learned today? We've learned that if you want to achieve something in life, use your intelligence, use lateral thinking, use gut instinct, if you will. Failing that, maybe give this a go.

Note: At the end of Greg's statement, an audio clip of Ivo Graham saying "Please. Please! Pleeease!" during the 'Pile the pineapples on the path' task is played.
