Ep 7. At Christmas

At Christmas, the seventh episode of season 12 of Would I Lie To You?, features host Rob Brydon, team captains David Mitchell and Lee Mack, and guest panelists Gabrielle, Stephen Mangan, Paul Sinha, and Maisie Adam. The show follows a simple format: each team takes turns reading out a statement about themselves, and the opposing team must guess whether the statement is true or false. The teams earn points for correctly guessing, and lose points if they are fooled by a lie.

In this festive episode, the panelists share some hilariously absurd stories about their experiences at Christmas time. Gabrielle tells of how Santa Claus once visited her house, while Paul Sinha explains why he was unable to attend a nativity play. Stephen Mangan recounts the time his family sat down to their Christmas dinner, only to discover that nothing had been cooked. Meanwhile, Maisie Adam's heartwarming story about her grandpa's homemade presents takes a surprising turn.

The episode also features the popular round known as "This is My..." where each panelist reveals a strange and often embarrassing item from their personal collection. These range from Stephen Mangan's shockingly large collection of Lilliput Lane models to Paul Sinha's retro turtleneck sweaters. David Mitchell's object, a framed photograph of himself in a Christmas jumper, prompts some amusing comments from the other panelists.

As always, the show is full of light-hearted banter and witty remarks, with the panelists teasing each other and playfully arguing their points. Lee Mack's quick wit and David Mitchell's dry humor bring some laughs, while the guest panelists hold their own with some clever jokes and stories.

Overall, At Christmas is a perfect episode to get viewers in the festive mood, with plenty of silly stories and good-natured fun. The mix of old and new faces keeps the show fresh, while the familiar format ensures that fans of Would I Lie To You? will not be disappointed.
