In the very first scene of The Horne Section TV Show (All 4), we are introduced to Alex Horne’s very real lot in life. After all, Horne is best known as the creator and producer of Channel 4’s wildly successful Taskmaster. So it stands to reason that the first person we should see on screen is, well, Greg Davies.
“Imagine you worked for five years developing your own telly show,” Davies announces from the Taskmaster stage. “Someone from telly goes, ‘I’m going to give you your own TV show,’ and, just before you can celebrate, the big telly person reveals that you can’t be the fucking host.” Announced (as usual) as Little Alex Horne, Horne then wanders on stage and is almost immediately sent off on an errand to fetch Davies some bagels.
