00:23Welcome to a very special edition of previously unseen clips from
00:29series 19 of Would I Lie To You.
01:03We begin with round one, Home Truths, where our panellists read out a statement from the card in front of
01:08them.
01:09To make things harder, they've never seen the card before.
01:11They have no idea what they'll be faced with.
01:14It's up to the opposing team to sort the fact from the fiction.
01:17Mark, you're first up tonight.
01:21Once, during a school football match, I was sent off for a two-footed tackle on Liam Gallagher.
01:30These two?
01:31Wow.
01:32When was this?
01:34It was in the late 80s.
01:36What's a two-footed tackle?
01:39It's...
01:40It is basically...
01:42Do it on Rob.
01:45You go in like that.
01:47Not sort of waist type, but like ankle.
01:51What sort of age were you in the late 80s, if you don't mind me asking?
01:54I was 14, 15.
01:56So you're the same age as Liam Gallagher?
01:59Yes.
02:00Really?
02:00Yeah.
02:04Because one of you looks much older.
02:07He's had a life of much more drink and drugs, so that's why.
02:10I don't think that's what he was saying.
02:13That's not older.
02:15Were you at the same school, at a different school?
02:18No, we were at different schools.
02:20Right.
02:21What was your school called?
02:22Manchester Grammar School.
02:23Where was Liam?
02:25He wasn't at grammar school, was he?
02:28Burnage High School.
02:29You got sent off, was he injured?
02:30No, you didn't really get sent off in schools football in the 80s.
02:35Oh, sorry, I thought you said you were sent off.
02:36I thought you said you were sent off, yeah.
02:38Oh, I was sent off, yeah.
02:39LAUGHTER
02:41APPLAUSE
02:44No, no, no, no, no.
02:45Hang on, hang on, hang on.
02:46This is going to be interesting.
02:49For what, Mark?
02:50Because back then, in school football,
02:53you were just told to leave the pitch rather than an officious...
02:57I think that's what sending off is.
02:59Yeah, but you could still bring someone else on.
03:02Oh, they let you replace you, man.
03:03And how did he react?
03:05He tried to hit me.
03:07Did he?
03:08Yeah.
03:09What, wouldn't you, if I two-footed you?
03:11I wouldn't.
03:12No.
03:13No.
03:13I would go to an authority figure...
03:16Right.
03:16..and seek vengeance through that route.
03:19Right.
03:19So how come Liam wasn't sent off for retaliation?
03:23Because they only had 11 players and therefore he couldn't be replaced.
03:27So in school football, if you only had 11 players available,
03:30they could do anything.
03:32Yeah, yeah.
03:32One of them's done a murder.
03:34Yeah, but we can't have them down to 10 men.
03:36We won't have a game.
03:39Like, the whole of the Burnage team would have been scallywax.
03:42No, that's very unfair to Burnage ball pit.
03:46In those days...
03:47Particularly when I still live in the area.
03:52At that age, did he have a reputation?
03:56Because he's got that swagger and everything.
03:58Not after I two-footed him, no.
04:00Did he play in a coat?
04:04With his hood up.
04:07Lee, you're a big football fan.
04:08I'm wondering if you've had any encounters with illustrious opponents.
04:14If you've gone in hard on anyone.
04:17Bob, Bob Mortimer.
04:18Bob Mortimer.
04:19Bill Duffy from the band The Cult.
04:21Yes.
04:22I tackled him, I took him out.
04:23This is incredible.
04:25Everyone's at it, David.
04:27Tell him about the time you tripped up Allie Jones in a lacrosse game.
04:32LAUGHTER
04:38So, what are we thinking?
04:39Diane, what do you make of this?
04:41Ooh, I actually think it's a truth.
04:44Bob, I think it's true.
04:46You think it's true?
04:47I don't know, yeah.
04:47Yeah.
04:48There's always a sign on this show that something isn't the truth.
04:51And that's when someone's telling the story, they go...
04:55LAUGHTER
04:57He may be giving you a double bluff.
04:59I don't know, how old's Liam Gallagher?
05:01I didn't know who he was for a long time with that conversation, actually.
05:05You didn't know who Liam Gallagher was?
05:07No, I didn't.
05:09You must be doing a lot of Googling on Strictly.
05:11I'm not that I do.
05:12Yes.
05:13If you don't know Liam Gallagher...
05:17OK, well, my team say it's true, so we'll go true.
05:20Right, Mark.
05:21Truth or lie?
05:23It was...
05:25A lie.
05:26A lie!
05:31Right, Yinka, you're next.
05:35APPLAUSE
05:35I once bunked off work but got busted when I was spotted on TV.
05:40All right, David Steen, what was the work and what was the TV?
05:45Um, I used to work at a hotel as a hostess in the restaurant,
05:51greeting restaurant people.
05:53And, um...
05:55Let's call them diners.
05:58I knew there was a reason he was sitting in.
06:00Um, and...
06:02Basically, my best friend's sister was in Big Brother.
06:10And she was up for eviction and I wanted to go to the eviction,
06:15so I went.
06:16When would this have been, Yinka?
06:192010?
06:21And you are a hostess at a hotel.
06:24Swanky?
06:25Knightsbridge.
06:26Now, you say hostess.
06:27What you described sounded more to me like a maitre d'oe.
06:31Barbe from Peckham.
06:33LAUGHTER
06:36Imagine Lee has done well enough to visit this hotel of yours.
06:40How do you deal with someone like him coming into your hotel?
06:44I, uh, I've got a reservation.
06:46Name?
06:47No, I mean your tablecloths are dirty.
06:49LAUGHTER
06:51Um, Lee Mack.
06:53Table for one?
06:54Dining alone?
06:55Yes, she's left me.
06:59We have one right by the toilet for you, sir.
07:03See, I would like to say how dare you, but that's actually quite handy.
07:07LAUGHTER
07:08So what happened then?
07:10So I was working in the evening.
07:12Yeah.
07:12And I said, well, I can't come to the eviction because I'm at work.
07:18And they were like, these are the friends.
07:20Come on, you have to come, you have to come.
07:21So I was texting during my break.
07:23OK, you have to think of some sort of emergency in order for me to get off of work.
07:28Right.
07:28So then my best friend's other sister called up my workplace and told them that my house
07:35was being burgled.
07:37Because you wouldn't phone the police, would you?
07:39I don't, I, I wasn't the one...
07:40There's a burglary.
07:41Quick, phone a random restaurant.
07:42Yeah.
07:43LAUGHTER
07:43Yeah.
07:44How did she know it was currently being burgled?
07:46Well, I didn't answer the phone, so I don't know.
07:48Yeah.
07:48Sorry, did you just say, how did she know it was currently being burgled?
07:51Yeah.
07:51It wasn't.
07:53LAUGHTER
07:56Are you actually following this?
07:58LAUGHTER
07:59So my manager came up to me and said, your house is being burgled.
08:03Yeah.
08:03So I said, I've got to go.
08:05So then I went outside, my friends were in the car and then off to Boreham.
08:09Oh, they were in the car waiting for you?
08:10Yeah, in a little...
08:11Does this story end with you saying to the boss,
08:13you're not going to believe who burgled it, Davina McCord.
08:16LAUGHTER
08:17So you got in the car...
08:19We went to the eviction.
08:20You went to the eviction.
08:21And then I...
08:22They made me a sign.
08:23I think it was John.
08:24Get John out!
08:26So I'm saying, get him out!
08:28Way!
08:29Saved my friend from the eviction.
08:31So, you got another shift then the next day.
08:34Yeah, Saturday morning.
08:35What happens?
08:36So I've gone into work and it was so weird because as I'm walking through the corridor,
08:39everyone's asking me how my house was and I'm like, yeah, fine, yours?
08:42Because obviously I forgot.
08:44LAUGHTER
08:45My house wasn't really burgled.
08:46And then so my manager called me into the office and was like,
08:52what happened yesterday?
08:53And I was like, oh, well, you know that they took everything.
08:55And then he pressed play on the telly.
08:58LAUGHTER
08:58And I was...
09:00One of those tellies with play on, yeah?
09:01Yeah, because he must have recorded it on demand or something.
09:03Oh, my gosh, this is horrible.
09:04Yeah.
09:05This is a good song.
09:05You're on my team!
09:06I know, I'm gripped by the story.
09:09I'm genuinely gripped by the story.
09:10So then I just saw myself, with me sign.
09:16What happens next?
09:17I was like, I'll just get my stuff.
09:19You immediately accepted a dismissal.
09:22Yeah.
09:23You didn't say, I'm sorry, can I still work here?
09:25I wasn't sorry.
09:26You weren't sorry?
09:27No, I'll do it again.
09:29LAUGHTER
09:30What do you think?
09:31Could this be true?
09:32I have one thing that doesn't add up.
09:34Wow, Columbo's in town.
09:37Just one more question.
09:38Oh, my God.
09:39OK, so your boss had a TV in the office?
09:43Yeah.
09:44Oh, they did.
09:46LAUGHTER
09:47LAUGHTER
09:48Thanks, Mr Columbo, I'll let you know.
09:51LAUGHTER
09:52I think we're going to go true.
09:54True.
09:54They think it's true.
09:55Yinka, was it true or was it a lie?
09:57It is true.
10:00LAUGHTER
10:02APPLAUSE
10:05Alistair.
10:08My middle name has three consecutive O's in it.
10:13Lacey.
10:14Your middle name has three consecutive O's in it.
10:17Yours as well?
10:18No.
10:19LAUGHTER
10:20No.
10:21No.
10:22I don't think there's a word for three consecutive O's.
10:24Moo-sh.
10:25What about, er...
10:27Moo...
10:28Like a really long moo.
10:30Like someone's having a suckle on the udder because they've been a good boy.
10:33LAUGHTER
10:35LAUGHTER
10:36LAUGHTER
10:37LAUGHTER
10:38LAUGHTER
10:39LAUGHTER
10:41OK, so, what's your middle name?
10:45Owen.
10:46Now, I'm not a great speller, but even I know that is traditionally spelled O-W-E-N, isn't it?
10:52This is a rare Gaelic spelling, Scots Gaelic spelling of the name Owen.
10:57Have you got Gaelic blood?
10:59Yeah.
10:59I didn't know.
11:01LAUGHTER
11:02How do you spell Owen?
11:03O-O-O.
11:06I want to be like you.
11:10E-I-N.
11:12Owen.
11:13O-O-O-O.
11:14And that's an original Gaelic spelling of what we now know as Owen.
11:18Yes, it was a spoken language rather than a written language,
11:21and in being transcribed into Latin characters, there's a lot of variation.
11:24Right.
11:25But how are you supposed to pronounce it?
11:26O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O?
11:27You're actually supposed to say that?
11:29LAUGHTER
11:30That is great.
11:31I might, because I've got two E's, I might call Carlos Have Lee.
11:34Yeah.
11:36It would be, if you can imagine it, you know, the, oh, you're on the
11:39moors, you're on the highlands, it's Owen.
11:41People have had a lot more time on their hands in history.
11:45Take as long as you like saying someone's name.
11:47Mm-hmm.
11:48That's just, that's a way of killing a really boring weekend.
11:51LAUGHTER
11:53What do you think, Josie?
11:54Is he telling the truth? I think it's a damn right lie.
11:57Did he?
11:59Yeah. What are you thinking, Joe? Oh...
12:02When.
12:06No, I don't think it's true. You don't think it's true.
12:09Josie doesn't think it's true. Lee?
12:10Well, I don't want to disagree with my team, but I think it's true.
12:13Have you ever seen three consecutive O's?
12:15Yes. When?
12:17I dropped some spaghetti hoops.
12:21That's two.
12:23What?
12:24LAUGHTER
12:30I dropped some of the food stuff.
12:32Oh, I'm sorry.
12:33I dropped one.
12:34I did drop a whole tin of spaghetti hoops and go,
12:38there seems to be three O's in this.
12:43What's it going to be?
12:44Well, say it's a lie then.
12:45OK, they think it's a lie, Alistair.
12:48Was it a lie or were you in fact telling the truth?
12:50I was telling...
12:52A lie, sorry.
12:54APPLAUSE
12:59Jase.
13:00Oh!
13:02I was once furious when a theatre performance was ruined by the ringing of a mobile phone.
13:08David's team.
13:10What was the play?
13:11The play was an Irish play about Northern Ireland and...
13:14Who were you in it with?
13:16Irish people.
13:18Do you remember any of them?
13:20There was a Sean.
13:22LAUGHTER
13:23Oh, yeah.
13:24You know, Brian.
13:26Brian.
13:28Dermot.
13:30So what happened?
13:32The end of the play was a big silence and a phone rang.
13:36This is a long time ago, so the phones were on ascending rings.
13:40Can you remember the ring tone?
13:42I can't, but it would have been a Nokia.
13:43It was back in the pre-iPhone days.
13:45So was it like a...
13:46E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E
13:50-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E
13:52-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E
13:54-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-E.
14:06No, it wasn't either of those.
14:13The terrible thing is, I was sitting there thinking, we've earned this silence.
14:16This is a tense play, two-hour play.
14:18And I was about to turn around and say to the audience, somebody switched that off.
14:23And I realised it was in my pocket.
14:25It was my phone.
14:27I know.
14:28I know.
14:29I had brought my phone in my pocket on stage for a play set in the 1970s when they didn't
14:34have phones.
14:35What did you do, Jason?
14:36It's a hell of a twist, the way you've told the story.
14:38Yes.
14:39I would say, honestly, I enjoyed White Lotus.
14:41This is better.
14:42Thanks very much.
14:44So, I took it out of my pocket, I went...
14:47You've not even been invented yet!
14:48That's right.
14:55And then I tried to avoid eye contact with the rest of the cast,
15:00and anybody in the theatre for the next 30-odd years.
15:03So, if you actually answered the phone...
15:06I had to stop it ringing.
15:08Forget the anachronism, I'll use it.
15:10This character is getting a phone call.
15:12Let me ask you, what would you have done?
15:13I would have brought my phone on the stage.
15:17Because I respect the theatre too much.
15:19One of the...
15:21APPLAUSE
15:24Right, David's team, what are you thinking?
15:26You see, I think he's made it more vague than he needed to.
15:29Yeah.
15:30Which is what makes me think it's true.
15:32Yeah, yeah.
15:32But he's agreeing with us, and that worries me now.
15:36LAUGHTER
15:36It's like we're falling into his trap.
15:39Yeah.
15:39But you don't mind falling into Jason Isaac's trap.
15:41I think that's OK.
15:42What do you think?
15:43I think it's true.
15:44I think we're going to say true.
15:46They all think that it is true, Jason.
15:48Was it true or...?
15:50Because it was, in fact, true.
15:51LAUGHTER
15:56It's Bob.
15:58Here we go.
16:00LAUGHTER
16:01Because I drive a lot, I've recently had one of the seats removed
16:05from my car and a toilet installed...
16:09LAUGHTER
16:10..in its place.
16:11So which seat have you had removed?
16:14The rear passenger seat.
16:16So it's diagonally behind you...
16:19Yes.
16:19..as you drive?
16:21Yes, yes.
16:21And what's the flushing situation?
16:24There's no flushing, it's a bucket.
16:27LAUGHTER
16:30LAUGHTER
16:32LAUGHTER
16:33LAUGHTER
16:35LAUGHTER
16:36LAUGHTER
16:36LAUGHTER
16:36I've got to be straight up.
16:39What are you saying?
16:41Just to clarify...
16:44LAUGHTER
16:44LAUGHTER
16:45LAUGHTER
16:46I've got to put a bucket on you and a bucket on the back seat of your car!
16:52LAUGHTER
16:55LAUGHTER
16:56LAUGHTER
16:57LAUGHTER
16:57A bucket for number twos and a welly for number one!
17:01LAUGHTER
17:01No, I was quite proud of it, cos the particular car I've got
17:06has a bench seat, but it splits two thirds,
17:09and the last third, when you lift it up, there is just a void.
17:13So I popped a bucket in the void.
17:15LAUGHTER
17:16And so the seat is still there?
17:17If you came in my car, you'd be sat on the toilet, you'd have no idea,
17:21and I'd be like...
17:23LAUGHTER
17:23LAUGHTER
17:24Because the seat is still there?
17:26At your leisure, sir?
17:29LAUGHTER
17:30LAUGHTER
17:31It's not a bad idea.
17:33LAUGHTER
17:33And when I go to Middlesbrough, I've got a long journey.
17:37I don't like to stop.
17:39Erm...
17:39Surely you pull over.
17:40Well, you have to stop.
17:42LAUGHTER
17:42How long's your right arm?
17:44No, no!
17:46LAUGHTER
17:46LAUGHTER
17:47You just...
17:48LAUGHTER
17:49You just wait for a long light.
17:52LAUGHTER
17:53Right, it's time for a guess.
17:56What's your team going to say, David?
17:58Don't lie, lie. It's probably a lie.
18:00But they think it's a lie. Was it a lie, or were you telling the truth?
18:04I was telling...
18:06LAUGHTER
18:10APPLAUSE
18:12It's Joe.
18:15The other day, I gave my daughter £10 to pass me a bottle of wine
18:20from the fridge, because I couldn't be bothered to get up from
18:23the kitchen table.
18:25LAUGHTER
18:25David's team.
18:27How far from the fridge are you?
18:31About three metres.
18:33LAUGHTER
18:35And was your daughter in the room as well, or did you text her?
18:39LAUGHTER
18:40No, she was down on the coast.
18:43LAUGHTER
18:45No, she was in the room.
18:46And what were you doing in the room?
18:48Just starting to get withdrawal symptoms.
18:52LAUGHTER
18:53What time of day was it?
18:55Breakfast?
18:56LAUGHTER
18:58No, it was respectable.
19:00Respectable?
19:01Respectable.
19:01Four.
19:02Oh, OK.
19:03So, describe the conversation.
19:05I said, oh, I really fancy a glass of wine.
19:08Mm-hm.
19:09And so my daughter just looked at me, like, well, go and get one,
19:13you old hag.
19:14LAUGHTER
19:14And she's a bit arsey, to be honest.
19:18Mm.
19:18I don't know where that came from.
19:21She's...
19:21LAUGHTER
19:22She's like my husband.
19:24And...
19:24How old is she, Jo?
19:26She's 22.
19:27Talk us through the payment process.
19:29How did you come to the £10?
19:31So, we worked our way up.
19:32We went through, kind of, three quid, then to a fiver.
19:35And then when it got to £10, she went and quietly got the wine.
19:39And that's why I've got a Scottish £10 note saved.
19:43LAUGHTER
19:45And was it red or white, Jo?
19:48Uh, red.
19:49So, why was it in the fridge, you barbarian?
19:53LAUGHTER
19:55You can get two, Rudwine.
19:58APPLAUSE
20:01Because I like it that way.
20:04I keep white wine in the oven, obviously.
20:07LAUGHTER
20:08So, what are you thinking, then?
20:10I think you don't keep red wine in the fridge.
20:12There is some red wines you chill.
20:15You barbarian!
20:16Yes, was it...
20:17Was it that sort of red wine?
20:19I've absolutely no idea.
20:22LAUGHTER
20:23We're going to go lie.
20:25They're saying it's a lie.
20:26That's all we're saying.
20:26Jo, was it a lie or were you telling the truth?
20:28It was...
20:30A lie!
20:31APPLAUSE
20:36It's Diane.
20:38To ensure my Strictly dancers go well, I play out the entire performance in the loo before the show.
20:47LAUGHTER
20:48David's team.
20:49When you say play out the whole performance, what does that involve?
20:52Do you do the dance in the loo?
20:55I do everything.
20:56How could you do the dance while being on the loo?
20:59In the loo or on, like, the top of the show, like, walk out, wave.
21:06Oh, really?
21:06I go down the stairs.
21:07Yeah.
21:08That's interesting.
21:08So, it starts for you.
21:10And...
21:11Yeah.
21:11And out you come.
21:18Yeah, that looks like it takes practice.
21:21And then...
21:21LAUGHTER
21:22Then you go up.
21:24Yeah.
21:25And then you go down again.
21:27And then you're on in ten seconds.
21:31Oh.
21:31Ten.
21:32Nine.
21:33Nine.
21:36One.
21:38Blast off!
21:41And then...
21:41I'll do the dance.
21:45LAUGHTER
21:47So, tell me about when you're visualising your encounter with the judges.
21:52Yeah.
21:53So, Chris is my partner.
21:54Yes.
21:54And I'm like, oh, my God, Chris, we did so good!
21:58Why don't you imagine Lee is your partner?
22:00Oh, Lee!
22:01Oh, my God, that wasn't as good as we thought, but it's OK.
22:07We can do better next time!
22:10Jamelia, what are you thinking?
22:12Do you know what?
22:12I actually think this one could be true.
22:15The only thing...
22:16I just wonder why you'd do it in the loo,
22:18and also why you wouldn't do it with your partner.
22:22Oh, good questions.
22:25Um...
22:25LAUGHTER
22:27Well, in the loo, because I can go almost like a demon
22:31has kind of come inside of me,
22:32so I don't like to show that off too much.
22:36LAUGHTER
22:36But I didn't really include Chris again,
22:39because he doesn't believe in it.
22:41OK.
22:42But if he did, you know,
22:43I probably wouldn't have done it in the toilet with him,
22:45but we could have found...
22:47Now, that is the trailer!
22:49LAUGHTER
22:51David, what do you think?
22:52I think this is true.
22:54OK, they think it's true.
22:56Diane, was it true or was it a lie?
22:58It is indeed...
23:00...true!
23:02APPLAUSE
23:07It's...
23:07Giles.
23:08Oh.
23:10I still get royalties for a song I co-wrote that was a big hit in Italy in 1987.
23:19LAUGHTER
23:19Me?
23:20OK.
23:21Who performed it?
23:22A very amusing Italian entertainer who was called Piccolo Marina.
23:30Is that a man or a woman?
23:31We could never decide.
23:33LAUGHTER
23:35How did this come about then, Giles?
23:37I'm a friend of Tim Rice, the lyricist.
23:41Yes.
23:41We were out one evening and I had difficulty in paying for my share of the meal.
23:48Well, hang on, hang on.
23:49In 1987, you were a very well-known TV personality.
23:53Yeah.
23:53Yes.
23:53So why were you struggling to pay for half your dinner?
23:56I was going to become a Member of Parliament and I therefore gave up all my other interests.
24:00My income dropped considerably.
24:02Tim said, what you need to do is write a hit song.
24:06LAUGHTER
24:06So...
24:07There we are.
24:07Problem solved.
24:09LAUGHTER
24:10Did you stand for election?
24:11Yes.
24:11I was elected.
24:13I was a Member of Parliament until the people spoke.
24:16LAUGHTER
24:17By the time I lost my seat, by then I knew I had contempt for my constituents.
24:22It just came as a bit of a shock to find the feeling was entirely mutual.
24:27LAUGHTER
24:27The point was, I was having supper with Tim Rice.
24:31I saw the fortune that he had made out of putting a few words together.
24:36LAUGHTER
24:36So, I actually wrote the song.
24:39It was about Pinocchio.
24:41And the song was called, I Cannot Tell a Lie.
24:44And we were in Venice, Michelle and I, we were in a lovely restaurant,
24:49and she said, you know, we've been married quite a while now,
24:52do you still love me?
24:53And I said, do I still love you?
24:55I'm Pinocchio, I Cannot Tell a Lie.
24:58And I began singing the song.
25:00And she began divorce proceedings.
25:02LAUGHTER
25:03I'm singing the song too loudly.
25:05Michelle's going, shh, shh, please.
25:07I'm saying, no, it's a lovely song.
25:08Ah, Pinocchio, I cannot tell a lie.
25:11I cannot tell a lie.
25:12Oh, no, I cannot tell a lie.
25:15Then the chorus comes in, what about your nose?
25:17What about your nose?
25:18It grows, it grows.
25:20But I cannot tell a lie.
25:21I cannot tell a lie.
25:22I am Pinocchio.
25:25Sorry.
25:27APPLAUSE
25:31I have to tell you...
25:33Can I ask really annoying you?
25:34No, wait for this, mate.
25:35I have to tell you...
25:36LAUGHTER
25:37I have to tell you, that is exactly the reaction we got.
25:42And somebody came out from another table and said, lovely song.
25:46I am composer.
25:48I would like to take your song and put it on Italian television.
25:52No!
25:52So, the bit you sang to us then, is that the chorus?
25:55That is the chorus.
25:56Great.
25:56So, why don't you sing us the first verse?
25:58LAUGHTER
25:58Once upon a time, down by the river, there I was, all of a quiver.
26:06I saw a lovely girl with a beautiful curl in her gorgeous head.
26:12I thought, hey, what's going to happen?
26:15I must love her.
26:18I am Pinocchio, cannot tell a lie.
26:21That was the essence of the song.
26:23Right, Lee.
26:25APPLAUSE
26:26It is time to take a guess.
26:29First of all...
26:30It's not time to take a guess, Rob.
26:32It is not time to take a guess.
26:34It is time to say to Giles, OK, and the second verse.
26:38LAUGHTER
26:38Then we went out to a little cafe
26:42Oh, the fun we had that day
26:45We were married to some
26:48She and me, me
26:51Pinocchio, Pinocchio, I cannot tell a lie
26:54LAUGHTER
26:56Right.
26:58So, first of all, Tasha, what are you thinking?
27:01Is it true?
27:02Never mind what she's thinking, third verse!
27:04LAUGHTER
27:06Is it true?
27:08I think it's a banger.
27:09I like the song.
27:10It's great, but I think it's a lie.
27:12Can I say how wrong you are?
27:13The song was translated into Italian.
27:16So it makes more sense in Italian?
27:17Oh, it's hilarious in Italian.
27:19Well, bang on!
27:20There's one great big problem with this, isn't there?
27:21You didn't write it for an Italian audience.
27:23You wrote it for Tim Rice.
27:24No!
27:24Of course!
27:25I'm sorry, look, look, look!
27:27It doesn't add on the story, does it, Giles?
27:29Can I say, you've been doing this for 19 years,
27:31but tonight you are a busted flush.
27:35LAUGHTER
27:38APPLAUSE
27:39It gets to about number 12 in the Italian charts.
27:42Occasionally we go on holiday there.
27:43I'm exaggerating slightly now.
27:45LAUGHTER
27:46We go on holiday there and I feel I still hear people humming it.
27:50Pinocchio, Pinocchio, I cannot do it again.
27:52Yes, don't do it again, guys.
27:54Don't do it again.
27:55Right, it's time to take a guess.
27:57Is it true or is it a lie?
27:58God...
27:59I don't think it's true, what do you think?
28:00I think it's...
28:01You think that's true?
28:02It has to be.
28:03He's just very good at that sort of thing.
28:05LAUGHTER
28:06But I just know it's a lie.
28:08It's true.
28:08OK, so they're saying it's a lie, Giles.
28:11Was it a lie or was it, in fact, true?
28:15It was...
28:16..a lie.
28:17APPLAUSE
28:21That was amazing!
28:24Well, that's all we've time for on this special edition of
28:27Would I Lie To You.
28:28Thanks very much for watching.
28:29Good night.
