Ep 4. Episode 4
- November 7, 2019
In Episode 4 of season 13 of Would I Lie To You?, host Rob Brydon invites comedians Lee Mack and David Mitchell, along with actress Amanda Abbington and actor and comedian Tom Allen, to join him on the show. The premise of the show is simple: the guests take turns sharing a story about themselves, and the opposing team must guess whether it is true or a lie. The opposing team then has the opportunity to ask questions to try to determine the truth of the story.
David Mitchell kicks off the episode with a tale about an encounter with a celebrity, while Amanda Abbington shares a rather unusual experience involving her mother and a funeral. Tom Allen regales the group with a story about a former job, prompting questions about his past. And Lee Mack shares a story that is sure to raise some eyebrows. The teams each argue their case for whether they believe the stories to be true or false, with plenty of laughs, debate, and even a few surprises along the way.
Of course, the real appeal of Would I Lie To You? is not so much the stories themselves, but rather the way in which they are told and the reactions they elicit. The banter between the guests is fast-paced and clever, with each trying to outdo the others with increasingly absurd tales. The show also features some recurring segments, such as the "This is My..." round, where the guests must guess the identity of a mystery object, and the "Quickfire Lies" round, where the guests must come up with quickfire responses to a series of questions.
Throughout the episode, there is a palpable sense of camaraderie between the guests, despite their opposing teams. They tease each other, joke around, and occasionally break into fits of laughter, all while trying to suss out the truth behind each other's stories. Rob Brydon, the show's affable host, serves as a sort of ringmaster, keeping the proceedings moving along with his dry wit and quips.
Overall, Episode 4 of Would I Lie To You? season 13 is a highly entertaining and hilarious installment of the long-running show. Whether you're a fan of Lee Mack's dry humor, David Mitchell's deadpan delivery, or just enjoy a good round of guessing games, this episode is sure to leave you laughing and wanting more.
