For each show, both team captains are joined by two celebrity guests capable of talking funny, convincing nonsense.
Over a series of rounds, each player tells the opposing team a number of amazing stories and embarrassing facts about themselves. The aim of the game is to convince them that what's a lie is true and what's true is not.
This week, talking porkies alongside Lee Mack are ex-EastEnders actress Natalie Cassidy and comedian Dom Joly. They're competing against rival team captain David Mitchell and guests Duncan Bannatyne and Frankie Boyle.
In the tradition of all great parlour games, Would I Lie To You? is a real test of people's ability to talk funny, convincing nonsense while thinking on their feet. And, as well as providing a lot of laughs, viewers learn plenty of fascinating facts about the lives of the panellists.

Tremendous show! While hardly original, I like the fact that it combines elements of Call My Bluff and Have I Got News For You. David Mitchell is particularly good in it, and it's nice to see Angus Deayton again, fronting a strong primetime show. Let's hope there's another series.
