But now, he's back. Of course he's back. What else would he be doing? He's had literally no other offers. It's little Alex Horne!

Taskmaster's Sign-off

What have we learned today? We’ve learned that natural scientists will be thrilled to discover that the dodo is actually alive and well. It’s smeared in aubergine, and it lives in David Baddiel’s pants. And we learnt that Rose Matafeo has won episode one. What a lovely thing that is. See you next time. Goodnight, my people!
