Add Taskmaster’s New Year Treat to your watchlist
How do you feel about Christmas cracker jokes?
Greg You’d expect me to say they’re awful, or be angry about them. But I quite like going through the motions and the family reading them out!
Alex I like the challenge of making them funny. I’m going to say something slightly arrogant: I will back myself in a family situation, even with a bad joke, to make it funny. I reckon comedians can still deliver it. I’ll do it, whatever it takes.

Alex We have a genuine tradition, where after dinner there’s one pineapple, and everyone guesses the amount of leaves on the top of it. The oldest person in the household has to count the leaves.
Greg What a surprise that your family would have a weird tradition that no one else in the whole country does.
Alex They keep going. They get really small. You’re looking at triple figures. You’re looking at 100-plus.
Greg So in the Horne household, it’s like, “Oh, gather round, now we’re going to count the leaves on a pineapple?” It’s like you’re lost in some Victorian time loop.
Alex Well, we’re not the ones banning our children from opening presents until it’s dark…
