    Assistant Intro

    And now for a man I hate... Oh, I'm sorry, that is the wrong word. And now for a boy with wonky teeth that I hate. It's... little Alex Horne!

    Taskmaster's Sign-off

    What have we learned today? We've learned that if Quentin Tarantino is running out of ideas for his next violent film, he only needs to get a bottle of ketchup and call Paul Sinha's agent. He goes... "Buh-boh, boh, buh!" But also we've learned that Iain Stirling has won! Well done again to him, and I look forward to seeing you next time. I really do! Goodbye!
