Task: Alex has to interact with Lucy Beaumont and Bridget Christie for one hour. He has to carry on polite conversation, and every time he says "what?" or shakes his head in bewilderment, he has to dance and sing for 30 seconds.
@@flutter2386nah that's absolutely the kind of question friend would ask down at the pub. The actual truth doesn't matter, its just a fun random question to talk shit about
Funnily enough, they do. Spiders differ from many insects in that they possess a book lung, which is a specific organ for gas exchange. Most insects just breath through pores in their exoskeleton into a network of tubules through their tissues. Though book lungs are very different from a human or mammalian lung.
essentially saying "whatever"? And you call that polite conversation? Sounds like id probably slap you within 10 minutes of us meeting if that's what you call polite.
Well, Alex isn't really counting. Either the crew is, or its done in post, so they wouldn't have gotten anything. Some of them did ask, and Alex just responded with "the meter is broken"
@ravinraven6913 considering he said how many steps were done after checking his pedometer for the 1st person that had finished. He did know but chose to lie on the others. They could have asked to look at it. Anymore stupid replies?
@@ravinraven6913He does know. He says the pedometer doesn't work, not that he doesn't know how many steps they've done. You're a miserable person. Would you like a hug? Some hair play? Would you like a friendly handy J?
I was curious so I looked it up and..... it's complicated. Many spiders have lungs, but many have trachea (hollow tubes that run through their bodies) instead, and a lot of spiders have both. They do not have diaphragms like we do, all their breathing happens passively. Their lungs are also very unlike ours; they are called "book lungs" because they look kind of like the pages of a book, and some spiders have two pairs of them. Thank you Alex for asking, hope this helps. 🕷
since the video is at least a year old...and he doesn't run the youtube account...I am gonna say it doesn't help a single person outside us nerds....the fact you didn't know should show how much you understand about the world outside your tiny lil home... its not complicated, all animals have lungs, I guess you don't know the definition of lung...its an organ that draws air in where it gets absorbed into the blood stream. Even if you don't have the same type of lungs doesn't mean you don't have them...take a type of salamander who breathes through its skin, that means the skin is the lungs......seems like your mind gets stopped by these restrictive words that make you confused? you should probably work on your critical...thinking and logic, what happens to a spider that is put in water...it drowns, why would you need to look up something when the answer is that obvious? Like seriously, big red truck
@@ravinraven6913you are totally wrong and should go back to school. Lungs, gills or trachea are all different things, there are also different ways of taking oxygen for some animals. Being so confident while being so wrong just puts into perspective how ignorant are you
Lung: each of the pair of organs situated within the ribcage, consisting of elastic sacs with branching passages into which air is drawn, so that oxygen can pass into the blood and carbon dioxide be removed. Lungs are characteristic of vertebrates other than fish, though similar structures are present in some other animal groups. - from Oxford languages.

I feel so similar, I was honestly annoyed with Bridget the first time I watched this season because it felt like she was being deliberately obtuse-- but once I'd seen all her tasks & things like this, I opened my mind a bit & appreciated her unique perspective and the insanity it wrought, and this is honestly one of my favorite series/casts now!
@@srahhhHonestly some people are just a bit different. She reminds me of me, “simple” tasks can be hard. It’s really painful so many people are calling her annoying and stupid
@@DeathnoteBB I'm sorry I said I found her annoying at first! The fact that I did a complete 180 on her, IMO, speaks to the fact that the failure to understand was a problem on my end, not hers. When I finally let her break the rules a little bit in my mind of what a Taskmaster contestant is supposed to be, I realized how spectacularly unique and wonderful she is. I'm willing to bet that most of those people started in the same place as me and just never took the time to have that 180 and realize that she actually rocks

Funny how she said she can't talk and count. Apparently she can't even walk and talk. 🤣 I loved how frustrated she was but actually came the closest even though she had no idea what was going on.
This is pure comedy gold and probably the simplest premise for an interview series yet. Move over Hot Ones, get out of here Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee - I'm watching Alex Horne having a pleasant stroll with guests making polite conversation.
Some super intelligent people appear to be foolish because their heads running differently and not at the same speed with others. They stay true to themselves too, not worry about fitting in. I think Bridge is one of them. She's so fun!!!
i would argue alex asking a series of bizarre questions isnt “polite conversation” so I would feel allowed to ignore him in such a sitution without breaking the tasks rules
you would also lose....polite conversation still involves replying, specially to things you have no opinion of or even the opposite opinion...Id question what you find to be considered Polite, and probably find out you're rather rude...so youd lose. your critical thinking is way off dude...if thats how you problem solve then I would love to play a game with you, Id be guaranteed to win because your lack of understanding what words mean...
I got curious about the Mozambique question and looked it up on Wikipedia. The answer is: 6 countries, they are Tanzania, Malawi, Zimbabwe, Zambia, South Africa, and Eswatini. (I got only Zimbabwe and Zambia, before looking it up.)
I don’t think Alex will ever be the same after spending that much time with Bridget, she broke him.
She broke me also.. I didn't know people that clueless could actually get dressed in the morning..
@@ColinRichardson There is nothing clueless about Bridget. Please reconsider your comment.

“My dad used to know someone who likes to go for walks” amazing conversational skills from Alex there
I can’t believe there have been 65 contestants and Bridget is the only one to make Alex visibly annoyed 😂. I love her so much!
And I don't think she was even doing it on purpose - she was just being herself!
And she was still the closest to 589!
The way he utters ‘god’ under his breath 😂
You would think the shit Rhod did to Alex would have Alex annoyed lol.
@@fakjbf3129 if he didn't stop her they would still be doing the interview lol

Everyone going on about Bridget (hilarious yes) but noone praises Sophie for the absolutely perfect "I don't care"? A travesty.
3:51 for those looking.

It happened more times than that :D

There has to be a few from Taskmaster US.
There is, it's called Bridget Christie's best moments on Taskmaster 😂
At first I was surprised Bridgit was at least kinda close but then I realised Alex was the one who stopped I think he just mentally gave up
the mutual annoyance between alex and bridget was born in this task
It’s so good
I would 100% watch a show with just Alex and Bridget in a room together. Absolutely amazing 😂
Alex would kill himself or her after 30mins
I love how genuinely infuriated Alex was with Bridget
The fact she got the closest too
I don’t think he was actually mad, that’s a big assumption
so annoyed is now infuriated?

4:48 slightly awkward pronunciation there and loved Alex's look.
Even the off camera crew was snickering. Every one went foolish this season or something.

"Spain"
"That isn't a number" 🤣
WAIT SHE ACTUALLY GOT THE CLOSEST LMAO
I agree with Judi that this is not a conversation, as alex does not let them talk to him.
I love the NMJ style "Does a spider have lungs?"
Does a spider have a heart?
I also loved it when I saw Alex bringing the tiny trophies to NMJ. I love it when TM and NMJ crossover subtly like that

"I don't like to touch the ground' is said so casually and matter of factly, and Alex just nods along.
