I very much doubt this was in the Alan they were thinking of. I suspect they were thinking of Alan Titchmarsh, as in the gardening legend.

Our robot vacuum is called Davros (I’m sure you remember him). He likes to get stuck between chair and table legs, eat cables and throw himself off steps - perhaps he’s trying to tell us something.
