Did Rhod Gilbert swap his cat for a scotch egg and a Smurf? - Would I Lie to You? Series 9 - BBC

[@jietroraximoff2805]

3:29 Clare says that it's a lie because he didn't show any emotion regarding the cat. The fact that he gave away a cat for a scotch egg and a smurf shows he didn't give a damn about the cat anyway.

I have to congratulate Clare Balding on her ability to instantly remove any comedy from the show the moment she opens her mouth.

She isn't a comedian. She does about as well as you'd do - except if you were on, people would go, "Who the fuck is that?"

[@TheTaterTotP80]

Nah, she just cared about the Cat, which is the right thing to do. If it were true, then it'd be an awful tale. That cat is a living being and a member of his family. But it's funny because it's fake and preposterous.

[@allycattiny]

His life is weird enough for that to be true tho let's face it. "You have changed the sex of that cat at least 3 times".

[@morganstiefvater1693]

tortoise shell cats are nearly always female, so when he said "her," I was actually swayed into thinking it was true.

[@KarstenOkk]

Wait how do they not go extinct.

[@morganstiefvater1693]

It's a coloration, not a breed. The color gene is just on the X chromosome and since females are XX, they can have the orange and black colors, where as males, being XY, can only be one or the other. So if an orange female and a black male have kittens, the females would mostly be tortoiseshell or calico

[@KarstenOkk]

Morgan Stiefvater Ah makes sense. I'm not a native English speaker, sorry.

[@Idarak1]

Now I assume the 'Smurf' was a stuffed toy one, but no-one ever mentions this, even briefly. Is 'Smurf' some sort of strange Welsh term?

[@XRCSgames]

At 2:20 he refers to the cat as a he.

[@foxdk]

Also, you shouldn't rely too much on the footage we are actually shown. As this is a half-hour program a lot of footage has to be cut down, and therefor we are not being told the entire conversations.

[@krashd]

Pointing out non-existant mistakes is a good way to encourage a mistake, she was trying to play the game.

I had no idea what a scotch egg was (being an American), so I looked it up. Let me get this straight. A scotch egg is cholesterol, wrapped in dead pig, breaded and then deep fried. HOW THE HELL DID WE NOT CREATE THIS!? I am sorry to the rest of the world on behalf of all of America. We have let you all down. Thank you Scotts, you have picked up the slack for America.

If you ever go to Scotland you will find out that the food gets much worse then the Scotch Egg. The Scotch Egg is quite possibly the finest example of Scottish food.
