'Enola Holmes 3' costars Millie Bobby Brown and Louis Partridge face off in a game of Lie v. Lie where elaborate stories, subtle bluffs, and a bit of oversharing make it surprisingly difficult to tell who's telling the truth. Millie claims the bigger the lie, the better she gets at telling it, while Louis shares an audition story so bad Millie can't believe it's true–"Oh my God... I have secondhand ick."
Did Millie really turn down a chance to act alongside with Martha Stewart? Did Louis's 'Jay Kelly' monologue really bring George Clooney to tears? Did he really steal a pair of underwear from the 'Enola Holmes' set? Between Henry Cavill's reality TV preferences, awkward fan encounters, and inspiring animal rescues, the lies get bigger, the truths get stranger, and the pair keep each other guessing until the very end.

00:00You learned UJC.
00:01Yeah, but that's not unusual.
00:02It's pretty unusual.
00:03Yeah.
00:04You learned how to control minds.
00:06Yes, iconic.
00:11I think I do have a good poker face.
00:13I tend to go quite red.
00:14Right, so that would prove you don't.
00:16If it's a really big lie, I am a really good liar.
00:18That's my job.
00:19My brain just knows to lock in on a lie, and that's it.
00:22Knows to lock in.
00:23Yeah, which I think is the female experience.
00:29Tell your best audition story.
00:31I screen tested with Hugh Jackman when I was, like, 11 or 12.
00:41What was the film for?
00:42The Wolverine movies.
00:43How did Hugh greet you?
00:44Good night, mate!
00:47Oh, my gosh, you've got to be telling the truth.
00:48That's how he greeted me.
00:50After you'd done the audition, how did you feel?
00:53Broken.
00:54I felt like I probably didn't get it.
00:56Okay.
00:56Because I think there was someone else that was better.
01:00I'm going to say that you're telling the truth, because I think if you said the film
01:03was Logan, there was a part in it for you that wasn't you.
01:08I'm going to say true.
01:10It's true.
01:11Yee-hoo!
01:12Yee-hoo!
01:13And it was for Logan.
01:14Yeah, right.
01:14I just thought to throw you off with the Wolverine movies.
01:16Oh, no, you're not meant to throw me off.
01:17Well, I wanted to, because I can.
01:19And I still found out.
01:20Tell your worst audition story.
01:23Well.
01:23I did something recently that I shall not name, and I had to sing for it.
01:29Okay.
01:29And so I spent quite a lot of money, a small fortune on singing lessons.
01:33And when I got into the room, I very much took the Hugh Jackman approach of just belting
01:37it out.
01:37Now, he's a good singer.
01:38I'm not.
01:39But I went for it.
01:40At the end, I had to double over, and I'd gone all dizzy, because I was just, I was shouting
01:46so loud.
01:47I thought loudness might equate to skill.
01:49And I had to excuse myself from the room after my song.
01:53And what, like, were you close to getting the role?
01:55Or was this just an audition?
01:58I was meeting the director and the producer.
02:01Okay.
02:01Can you tell me what kind of song you were singing?
02:03Like, was it a theatre song?
02:05It was a theatre song.
02:05What kind?
02:06What song?
02:09Um, um, um, it was from a theatre...
02:11No, it's live.
02:14You would know the song, off by heart, if this was just a few weeks ago.
02:17I know it.
02:17I was just debating whether or not to sing it.
02:19I'm telling the truth.
02:20No.
02:21I'm telling the truth.
02:22Can I get a rendition of this song immediately?
02:24What song is it?
02:24I know the song.
02:25It wasn't the pause, it was because I was debating whether or not to go for it.
02:28Because the first time went so bad.
02:30It's called Santa Fe from a musical called Newsies.
02:33And did you get, you didn't get the role?
02:34No.
02:35You went dizzy and you left the room.
02:36I went dizzy, yeah.
02:37That is so...
02:37I went all hot, stumbling around like this.
02:41And then I had to hold a water bottle up to my face to try and cool down.
02:44Oh my God, I had the ick.
02:45I actually have secondhand ick.
02:47I think they did too.
02:48Oh my gosh, Lou, I'm really sorry about that.
02:50But I'm sure you sounded great.
02:53What is your favourite memory with Henry Cavill?
02:55Okay, one time I asked him if he would like to watch Love Island with me.
03:00And he said no.
03:02But he did tell me that he likes to watch a certain TLC show.
03:08A certain reality show on TLC.
03:11Um, I'm going to say that's true.
03:14Because you were obsessed with Love Island for a little while.
03:16I thought you were lying to begin with.
03:17But I can imagine that.
03:19I think Henry is someone with hidden interests, hidden debts.
03:23We know he loves Warhammer.
03:25Yeah.
03:25Right?
03:25Yeah.
03:27So I could...
03:28What does that have to do with TLC?
03:29Well, that's something that you might not know about him based upon looking at him.
03:32That tracks.
03:33TLC?
03:34No, Warhammer.
03:35Looking at him, really?
03:36Yeah, like, TLC is like a, you know, it's a very niche reality channel.
03:41Does it stand for tender love and care?
03:43Maybe.
03:45I'm going to say you're telling the truth.
03:47Yeah, I am.
03:48I am telling the truth.
03:50He actually does have a small soft spot, I think, for reality TV.
03:54Just not Love Island, apparently.
03:55What was the moment you fell in love with acting?
03:59Oof.
04:00The moment.
04:02This was quite recent.
04:03I was on the set of a film called Jay Kelly.
04:05And I have to, I had to stand up in front of George Clooney.
04:10I was doing this monologue and I was kind of a bit nervous, you know, first day.
04:14And George Clooney has to be standing there watching kind of like this.
04:17And then at the end, after I do it, it's kind of silence after cut.
04:21I'm like, I don't know how that went.
04:23And I was sort of going away, thinking about what I want to do next.
04:26And George came up to me.
04:28He put his hand on my shoulder like that.
04:30And he said, that was great.
04:34That was great.
04:35I feel like I would know this story.
04:38This was surely, this is like.
04:39And at that moment, I thought, I'm brilliant.
04:42And I fell in love with it there and then.
04:43I feel sick.
04:46One, two.
04:48I do have follow-up questions for this.
04:50Okay.
04:50Where were you when he gave you this compliment?
04:54I was at the corner of the room, sort of in my own world, disappearing.
04:58And was he emotional?
04:59Yeah, did you not see?
05:00Yeah, I saw that.
05:02I just wanted to know the truth.
05:03There weren't tears in his eyes, but his eyes were certainly moist.
05:07And so what was Adam doing?
05:08Did he feel moved by your performance?
05:10If he did, he was hiding it.
05:11I mean, probably.
05:13I honestly do think this is the truth.
05:14Because, like, I've never felt that way about Louie.
05:19I've never gone up to him and said, that was amazing.
05:22Yeah.
05:22But you saw it.
05:24Yeah.
05:25I really want to say this is the truth.
05:27But I do feel like this would be a story you'd like to tell everyone.
05:30Like, this must be something you're very proud of.
05:32Final answer.
05:32But it came to you very easily.
05:35I'm just going to say it's true.
05:36It was a lie.
05:38It was a lie.
05:39Louie.
05:40I did do a monologue in front of George Clooney.
05:42You know, I did think to myself.
05:43Actually, I feel like you wouldn't out George Clooney like that.
05:47Do you know what I mean?
05:47Out him as having bad taste.
05:48What's the scariest thing you've ever seen?
05:51Hmm.
05:52I've had many scary things.
05:54Like, I've felt like I've seen ghosts, things like that.
05:56That's cool.
05:57But, like, recently I read a script that was really bad.
06:04And I felt, like, genuinely I was scared that the film industry was going in this direction.
06:09It was with a certain person that I was going to play with, an older woman.
06:16And she's not, like, an actor.
06:18So it was a bit of, like, a, I'm going to be the only actor in this.
06:21And it was about, like, homemaking.
06:26And that really scared you?
06:27The script was bad.
06:29Like, when I tell you, there was a story, there was a plot within the script.
06:32But, like, I just was like, this is the worst script I've ever seen.
06:36This is quite specific.
06:37So it's a very good lie, if it is a lie.
06:41But one question, I obviously don't want to out anybody.
06:44Tell me what the person does to save face.
06:47She owns, like, companies.
06:48Like, homemaking companies.
06:50I think this is the truth.
06:51The whole truth and nothing but the truth.
06:53This is a lie.
06:54What?
06:55Where did you get that from?
06:56I thought it was going to be...
06:58Oh, really?
06:59Yeah.
06:59Wow, I can't believe that.
07:01Homemaking companies.
07:02I was thinking of Martha Stewart.
07:03I was thinking of Martha Stewart.
07:04Good, I'm glad.
07:05I was going to say, if you were going to ask her, I'd be like, Snoop Dogg is producing.
07:10Have I ever been caught sneaking something off a set?
07:14Yes.
07:14Underwear.
07:15What set?
07:16Actually, one of the films that we worked on.
07:20One, two or three?
07:21Two, but honestly, it could have been one as well.
07:25I take Enola's underwear home all the time.
07:27Yeah, but it's a weird conversation to get caught taking something and then you have to say it.
07:31Okay, but did they say, hey, Louis, are you happening to take these home?
07:35Because we have limited pairs of these.
07:36Kind of.
07:37And I said, I want to wash them.
07:39That is disgusting.
07:41It was after a day of stunts.
07:42No, you're such a weirdo.
07:43It was after a day of heavy stunts.
07:44You don't want to wash them?
07:45It was hot.
07:45No, no, no.
07:46I don't want you to have to wash them.
07:48Oh.
07:48So I'm going to take them back with me.
07:50That's also disgusting.
07:52Caught in a lie.
07:53But then I had to explain why I was taking it back.
07:55And explain that my pants were really sweaty.
07:57This is a lie.
07:57Sweaty.
07:58This is true.
08:01Yeah.
08:03Sweaty pants.
08:04That's disgusting.
08:05Yeah.
08:06Betty Swalox.
08:06And you need to work on yourself.
08:08I heard today, actually, you can get Botox to stop sweating.
08:11Yeah.
08:12Yeah, you can.
08:13You should have seen me after the Kenny Clarkson show yesterday.
08:16I've got a photo.
08:16No.
08:17Yeah.
08:17Oh, Louis, I'm sorry.
08:19It's okay.
08:19What has been your favorite interaction with a fan?
08:22I once had a fan.
08:24This started off as a really, really not fun interaction.
08:27They found where I'd lived.
08:28Oh, God.
08:29And they were probably about 19.
08:30She was a girl.
08:31She was from Moldova.
08:32That's scary.
08:33And she said she was traveling in Europe.
08:35I don't know how she had found my address.
08:39But something about me kind of felt that she was nice.
08:43Felt that she was kind of sweet.
08:45That tracks for you.
08:46Yeah.
08:46Call it what you will, naivety.
08:48And I was at home with my mom at the time.
08:50You let her in.
08:50And yeah.
08:51Oh, my God.
08:52So it was my mom saying, Louis, there's someone at the door for you.
08:55And I went around and I was like, hi.
08:58And she went, hi.
08:59Like that.
09:00And it was like really weird and loud and people were looking.
09:03So I kind of said, well, are you all right?
09:04What's up?
09:05And figured out she was a fan and she'd come.
09:07And it was almost like too awkward to not invite them in.
09:10Oh, this is, okay.
09:12And then for half an hour.
09:13This is ridiculous, Louis.
09:14We sat and we had a cup of tea.
09:16Me and my mom and this fan.
09:17Your mom?
09:18No, your mom's smarter than that.
09:19And she was.
09:20She would never let that happen.
09:21This girl was actually really sweet.
09:22She was a student.
09:23She was studying.
09:24She's also a stalker.
09:26We had a cup of tea and I pointed out that it was pretty weird
09:29that she had come, but that I wished her all the best.
09:31And we had a normal conversation.
09:32Then she went on her way and I'd never heard from her again.
09:40That was such a good lie.
09:42How did you know?
09:43That was such a good lie.
09:45Oh, but I am pathetic.
09:46That's something I would do.
09:47That is something you would do.
09:48But your mother is.
09:50The mom, I should have said dad was.
09:52No, your father's also.
09:54Isn't he a lawyer?
09:55Yeah, but both very smart considering.
09:57Okay.
09:58Very, very smart.
09:59People.
09:59I thought that was.
10:00They would not.
10:01Your mom is very protective.
10:02She would not let somebody.
10:03I thought that was a brilliant lie.
10:05Absolutely not.
10:05Talk about a time you did something amazing,
10:07but no one else was there to see it.
10:08I feel like that's most stories you tell.
10:11So you're insinuating that they didn't happen.
10:12I'm insinuating that you would bring a bunny back to life.
10:15Oh, yeah.
10:16And no one would be there to see it.
10:18You'd have to take your word for it.
10:19You know what?
10:20Okay.
10:21One time I saved a cat.
10:23He was really, really cute.
10:25And I really loved him.
10:26And he was a stray and he had feline leukemia.
10:31And they were like,
10:32he's not going to live a very long lifespan.
10:34And I was like, I'm going to make this cat live.
10:36He had like conjunctivitis.
10:38He had really crazy nasal discharge.
10:40He was coughing.
10:41Like it was, it was a very...
10:43What does it sound like when a cat coughs?
10:46Like they're trying to regurgitate something up.
10:48Continue.
10:49You know, I gave him B12 shots.
10:54Where do you inject a cat with a B12 shot?
10:57Subcutaneously behind their,
10:59like right behind their collarbones.
11:01I thought B12 goes in the bum.
11:03Not in a cat, but maybe in you.
11:06Then I gave him fluids because he was really dehydrated.
11:09And you can tell that when you pinch the cat's back
11:11and it doesn't go down fast.
11:14I also got a bunch of herbs from an online...
11:17Herbs?
11:18Herbs, like herbs, like...
11:20No, herbs.
11:20Oh, sorry.
11:21Herbs.
11:22Herbs.
11:22And I mixed them in his food.
11:24For about three months, I did this,
11:26where I just fully focused on giving this cat
11:30all the support in the world.
11:31I put him in the shower,
11:32like not to get wet,
11:33but to get steam inhalation to discharge everything.
11:37And after three months,
11:38I took him back to the vet
11:39and he tested negative for feline leukemia.
11:44I think this was a very elaborate
11:46and very good lie.
11:48But I think it is still a lie.
11:49It's a truth and his name is Rico
11:51and he's my cat.
11:52So you're telling me you cured cat cancer?
11:54I'm not saying I cured him,
11:55but I actually do.
11:56I think I did.
11:57Because here's the thing,
11:58I don't want veterinarians to come for me
11:59and be like,
12:00no, you absolutely didn't cure him.
12:01It can go away on its own.
12:03Sure.
12:03But at least I cured his cult.
12:07But he tested negative for feline leukemia,
12:09which I think is a bit random.
12:10Do you not think?
12:10Well, you diagnosed him with leukemia
12:13and conjunctivitis and upper respiratory discharge.
12:16I took him to the vet.
12:16I said, what's wrong with-
12:17Well, why didn't they keep him on?
12:18And why were you administering the B12 shots?
12:19No, they said feline leukemia.
12:20It's very sad.
12:21Like, we're sorry.
12:22They said there's nothing they can do.
12:23Feline leukemia and feline AIDS,
12:25those are two things that you just,
12:26they don't treat.
12:27Like, it's just kind of the way it is.
12:29Cats can get AIDS.
12:31Yeah, my other cat has AIDS.
12:33I feel pretty, pretty good.
12:35I think I won in stories.
12:37Do you know what I mean?
12:38I'm just a much more interesting person.
12:40So-
12:41You cured cancer.
12:42Right.
12:42I mean, come on.
12:43Do you know what I mean?
12:43So it's like you won the game.
12:44What have I done?
12:45I've got sweaty pants.
12:46I don't know.
12:47Yeah.
12:48I think you're a bit more complicated
12:49than this matter, aren't I?
12:51I-
12:52It's a line from the film he's in.
12:54I promise to be somewhat honest with you
12:56in the future,
12:57but occasionally lie if I need to.
12:59I promise to be on the whole honest as well.
13:01Great.
13:01Wonderful.
13:02Okay.
