Those are very different things and make the statement nonsense on its own, but we can give you a pass here since it's easy to figure out what you probably meant. B. Your previous reply, which you appear to believe was so laden with implication as to be obvious, in fact suggested the *opposite* of both numbers (1) and (2).

In ep 117 of the taskmaster podcast, alex says that this interview was the highlight of the series and that it was "one of the funniest things" he's been involved
They filmed this interview the same day as the Maypole, the shoes, the cup snake, and eight personalities tasks... no wonder Little Alex Horne was broken by this point. I do wish I knew what exact order they filmed them in so we could get a better sense of the descent into madness.
@@edopronk1303 Because they are all clearly at the series 13 special location and, from my understanding, those tasks are always filmed across one day for each contestant.
I also think the task where they had to get the ducks into Alex’s bike’s basket was also filmed there because you could see the maypole in the background. That one isn’t really a Bridget insanity task, but he has expressed hating doing the task in general.
That's what everyone is asking the whole series Greg said on multiple occasions that he thought she was smart (or at least she had a reputation of being smart), and she lost that durring all the task
mwuahahahahahahahah true! well done Alex for being a fountain of creativity. Amazing that after all these years the show still feels as fresh as it does.
Yeah all I can think about now is that was she seriously thinking of parts of the eye during the rest of the stroll or did she just remember the retina is part of the eye and felt that would help with the task
It's incredible because the whole time I kept thinking of eye parts she missed, only for her to inexplicably look up from the task and revisit the question.
Holy shit ... I dont think Ive ever seen Alex so... flustered? ... he seemed to be genuinely confused as to how to deal with some of her answers :D Hope that continues through the series.
Just when everybody (even Alex) thought Bridget is going to be one of those hopelessly clueless ones, she came up with "retina". Soon after picking up the coffee spill on Alex. And the step count so close to the target. There's more to this woman than meets the retina.
"And the step count so close to the target. " I think that was helped by the fact that Alex told her when they were on 410 steps, then ran out of questions, then stood there waiting for her to say the line to end the task because he knew they'd gone over the count. If Alex had kept asking questions they could have been walking forever.
great way of describing it, i've had those conversations with people, like we aren't connecting, even talking about the same thing, like we're talking to each other but having different conversations. not much anymore because i purposely avoid human contact when possible.
After watching tonight’s show with the shoes, I think it’s safe to say we have found the first ever contestant who is capable of irritating Alex and turn his brain inside out and she is sensational.
There is something about the awkwardness and constant low level squabbling I find hilarious. This series has a ton of potential. I adore all the contestants.
This would have been a thousand steps if Alex hadn't gotten frustrated. Taskmaster is so entertaining. She gave up counting so quickly but her guessing was so accurate it seems.
Worth noting that he also got frustrated fairly close to the target number, so it's not like they kept walking for ages after and then got frustrated. Bridget really did a good job on him and fair play to her.
this is probably my 7th time watching this. it's so wild and perfect. i love that you can actually hear the crew laughing at 8:15 and 9:00 absolute perfection from start to finish. what a woman.
I love her business with the written Task throughout the Series: saying “line” and “Taskmaster”, trying to reread the Task after putting her glasses away, and having to hold it at arm’s length. She’s just naturally funny.
each step was supposed to reflect a second from the start of the interview until the end. the solution being that as soon as the last question is asked, you thank Alex and end up very close to the required number. It's also the reason that after several short answers he checks the pedometer and jogs on the spot, to catch up the expected steps at any given point.
Add a bit of Desky Dennis’ litigiousness, and Paul Chowdhry’s surrealism, and you’re bang on. It’s like she was lab designed to be the perfect Taskmaster contestant.
I don't know at what point during the walk Bridget realized she could fuck with Alex, but her little grin at 7:05 is everything. The flusterer becomes the flustered!
"Who will win your series of Taskmaster?" - "I don't know." "Where will you come?" - "That's the same question!" Those are some very clever fighting words!
🎵"Does a spider have a heart? Does a spider have a soul? Does a spider have lungs? Does a spider have a goal?" 🎶 I see that Tim Key's been working hard as the "Task Consultant", but surely Watto should also get that credit.
Although I've watched through Taskmaster multiple times, I've never watched these interviews before, and boy howdy have I been missing out. I love how Bridgette is able to break Alex more than any other contestant. I have to wonder if this interview was filmed on the same day as the "find Alex's shoe" challenge.
when she's cracking up at 3:50 it's so infectious it takes me out every time😭that's the moment which sets the crew off laughing as well😂what an icon. even alex laughs. that's when you know it's good
Bridget is completely and utterly the taskmaster throughout this season and this walk. She is talented. She let him completely exhaust himself, over act, and over react. She made him trip over his own deadpan, controlling persona. Her occasional smirk is the prize here. 7:04 she is clearly proud of herself for a split second. She's very, very good.
Well if you are looking for a competition between two stupid women whose careers exist solely because they were in relationships with woke left wing male comedians who got their work from the BBC and Channel 4. This is why we need to defund the BBC, end the licence fee and sell Channel 4. So we don't subsidise untalented communists
Bridget Christie seems to have made the same decision Rhodh Ghilbhert did and made their own game of the game. Rhod decided he would torment Greg because of their friendship, but Bridget confined her meta strategy to the Taskmaster universe itself, tormenting Alex in homage of the Taskmaster.
Bridget was my favourite going in and this has only made me root for her all the more. I don’t think she’s going to win given how many times she reread this task and still misunderstood, but she’s very entertaining to watch.
I didn't know who Bridget Christie was before TM, but she's amazing. The incredulousness and confusion at simple questions is brilliant. "Do you have a favourite number?" "... ... ...no?!?"
QI. Check out her appearances there. That's where I became acquainted with her. Sadly, there's not a lot of Bridget Christie RUclips that I've found. But I adore her, adore her, adore her.
I love the little "god" under his breath at 7:03. Bridget is by far the best contestant for playing Alex at his own game and getting him genuinely exasperated.
Seems like Taskmaster is showcasing us possible Doctor Who actors. Johnny Vegas (wouldn't even need a script. Just give him a sonic screwdriver and let him run around on set). Charlotte Ritchie (in her dungarees and a carefree attitude), and now Bridget dressed up as Lee van Cleef. All would make excellent Doctors, I think.
Someone on another video said “Bridget flips a coin at the beginning of each task to decide whether to use 0% or 100% of her brain”- this proves that sometimes the coin lands on its edge.
Every contestant is going to fail this task because it's meant to be a "polite conversation" and Alex is barely holding the thread of civility together
I couldn't tell if Alex was exasperated or just very appalled but I enjoyed this thoroughly. Her lack of actual answers and general confusion is impressive.
I'm 31 and this feels juvenile, but I have the biggest crush on Bridget. Extremely funny, sharp, contemplative, incisive, probing and downright beautiful. I can't get enough of seeing her smile. Don't tell my missus.
I've no idea who she is but can't wait to see more of her. This would be a glorious bit of comedy even if it wasn't completely improvised on the spot. This season will be awesome.
The 14 pairs of shoes got translated to 14 pounds of shoes with the automatic captions and that would have been so on point for Bridget I just lost it.
“Do you have a favorite number?”
“No.”

Alex's looks after she says the final "pardon?" and "what?" were the greatest, my favorite of these interviews by far
Bridget Christie is the first Taskmaster contestant to personify confusion. Incredible stuff. I'm an instant fan.
You forget Johnny Vegas was on series 10
“The Task begins when Alex takes his first step Taskmaster”
And the way she says “Line” when reading out every Task.
After watching tonight’s show with the shoes, I think it’s safe to say we have found the first ever contestant who is capable of irritating Alex and turn his brain inside out and she is sensational.
the exhausted laugh and the look into the camera towards the end. alex has met his match
There is something about the awkwardness and constant low level squabbling I find hilarious. This series has a ton of potential. I adore all the contestants.

Really did a good job on him? She is actually just stupid.
The way Alex stops himself from exasperatedly saying ‘yes but have a guess’ and then softens his tone is hilarious!
If this was part of an episode, the episode's title would have to be "There's nothing inside a spider"
Just eyes and legs. And storage.
Or "The retina"

She has to be a different species, a better one mind you
I am absolutely certain that, as soon as she saw this task, she decided "nope, that's bullshit, I'm just gonna take the piss out of alex"
Everybody seems to think she is like this on purpose. I don't think so. She is just a weird, super ADHD woman. Very funny though.
each step was supposed to reflect a second from the start of the interview until the end. the solution being that as soon as the last question is asked, you thank Alex and end up very close to the required number.

I love this so much, by the look on his face at times, Bridget has got Alex wondering if he's gone completely mental
Funniest ten minutes in a while, spilled my drink
I love how they made the interview itself line up so closely with the step count. Fair play
Really? Seems to me like he ran out of questions before 500 steps even.
@@samsprague3158 Most likely because most of her answers were fairly short
@@samsprague3158 That's why he kept checking the pedometer, to stop them and catch up
Anyone coming back to watch this after it was referred to during season 14 interviews? 😁
7:03 I think Alex is genuinely regretting this task , brilliant to watch 😂
Alex wasn't checking for rain at the start, he was asking God for strength.
When she tries to read the task again immediately after putting her glasses away
"I can't see it..."
I hope she's like this all the time
I'm already in love with her. This will be a brilliant season.
This was so awkwardly brilliant
ty for interview link. def worth the watch.
The moment Alex says god under his breath was fantastic.
I couldn't tell if Alex was exasperated or just very appalled but I enjoyed this thoroughly. Her lack of actual answers and general confusion is impressive.
I'm 31 and this feels juvenile, but I have the biggest crush on Bridget. Extremely funny, sharp, contemplative, incisive, probing and downright beautiful. I can't get enough of seeing her smile. Don't tell my missus.
Bridget is really innovative and unique. Loookng forward to to seeing more of her on taskmaster.
I've no idea who she is but can't wait to see more of her. This would be a glorious bit of comedy even if it wasn't completely improvised on the spot. This season will be awesome.
- Eyes and legs. And storage.
- Like an electric car?
- Exactly.
I always forget about this bit.
Update: I don't forget about this bit any more after so many times watching this.
I keep coming back and watching it.
How does a spider breathe?
Through its eyes
😂
These two would make a great double act. She’s so funny.
Ooooooh "Little Alex Horne" has met his match in shenanigans has he? Found my champion for this series!
The quality of this video is awesome, Reminds me of watching a movie
One of my favorite contestants, love her
Bridget has kid energy in the most hilarious way. I get the same sort of answers from my 5 year old.
We're only 1 episode in, and I think I've already found my favourite contestant this series! XD
this video was everything I hoped for and more
Easily the best one of these yet
She's giving slightly more persistant Katherine Parkinson 😂
Very much so, except KP seemed more outwardly composed while I suspect Bridget is a bit more internally composed.
I had the same feeling as well😁
So, so good. She's an amazing contestant.
This is going to be an iconic performance
one of the best things never seen on taskmaster
after watching all of them, this one is by far the best
The 14 pairs of shoes got translated to 14 pounds of shoes with the automatic captions and that would have been so on point for Bridget I just lost it.
this insane woman has stolen my heart and i'm not sure how
Even sitting here and just watching someone do this task, I was genuinely feeling confused by the questions and counting
The, uh, the retina.
Gawd this was silly. I loved it.
This is like an awkward 10 year old and a precocious 8 year old being told to walk to school together. 😂😂😂 she just decided “Not today, pal”.
