All 3 of those stories were pretty good tbh, usually at least one is very very clearly not true.

[@tonyhaskellful]

agreed I could have believed all of them. Maybe not so much David’s story but still was believable

[@flotinaway7]

I hope Emma gets reunited with her parents ever so soon

[@dielaughing73]

She's having lots of nice adventures on her own though

[@Hugh.Manatee]

If children's books have taught us anything it's that you'll have much more fun if you ditch your parents.

[@rory4605]

I did worry that her parents may have turned out to be dead irl, and Lee's joke would make her cry again.

WILTY is sooooo good I hope it airs for eternity

@@Mollypopithelen oh no worries am already moderately withered but also finer than ever in most ways! The implication (or hearty part for some), could rather be that you don't hate it when it happens to other certain kind of people, as well you shouldn't.

This is a great advertisement for step up to the plate if I get to hear Chris's quips haha.

[@JonasHamill]

I watched the filming of this episode and immediately went home to check out Chris on Step up to the plate, it's honestly brilliant.

[@yasserhayatli1818]

How do you book the tickets for filming of shows?

[@HOTD108_]

Where can I watch Chris on Step up to the Plate? The only clip I can find on KZbin are of Dick and Dom on the show.

[@charlottesdad3327]

I'd have to check, but I believe ever time Chris McCausland has told a story on this show which made it to air, it has been true. The Math pogo stick, the deaf Australian downstairs. He headbangs the time he wants to wake up. He eats an apple from the bottom. And he helped the dude that fell in the hole with the lady who didn't speak English. I cannot think of a single time he has told a story and it was a lie. If that is so I believe he is the only guest to have that honor. Chris has never lied on Would I lie to you as far as I can tell.

1984 I was an 18yr old life guard in Lake George NY, when an old man with ONE LEG, took off his prosthetic leg and hopped into the water. After about 5 minutes of doing laps he began to float face down with his arms out. Thinking he'd had a heart attack, I jumped in, and tried to rescue him. When I grabbed his arm he thrashed around startled and told me he ''liked to float'' after his workout. 40 years ago, and I still think of it!🤣

[@IndomitableT]

Well, it was a good deed, even though somewhat superfluous🏊🏻‍♂️🤭

[@jietroraximoff2805]

Considering the fact that he was face down at the time, I'd probably think the same.

'This is blackbird and, in 1984, I made him think I had died.

Hmm it’s a tough one but I’m I’m going to go with my team and say this is a lie

Could you put the middle finger away please? LMAO. Lee on point as always

[@cockneycolombian]

If you’ve ever been to Lewisham shopping centre you know which lift she’s talking bout

[@MedEvil1c]

I wish Judi said they played Shoe Who (or Guess Shoe from Taskmaster)

[@JLF201]

My first thought when she said "Guess Who" was that bit from Taskmaster!

[@billyeveryteen7328]

I could have sworn they showed the clip of the program when this originally aired.

[@HeatherHotcakes]

Judy was very believable.

[@patscott2868]

Not AH again

[@staneagle1070]

What was the fire brigade mountain rescue joke

[@rinesserin]

Watch the clip of Chris McCausland's Elaborate Emergency that was taken from earlier in this episode, and that joke will make sense! I don't want to spoil the clip for anyone who hasn't seen it, but it was a callback joke to earlier in the evening.

[@samuelhilger48]

she dived???!!! you of all people... she dove!!!!!

[@Jcorry123]

Neither are incorrect.

[@JLF201]

Let me guess: You're not British. What's popular in North America isn't necessarily more correct.

[@samuelhilger48]

Indeed. However, you do realize the past tense used to be "dove", while the past participle is "dived". But as always, if enough people say it wrong often enough, something becomes canon and ultimately legitimized. It just seems that he, being quite meticulous and overly proper at all times wouldn't make such an uneducated peasant-like mistake

[@Jcorry123]

@@samuelhilger48 Do you have a source for that? Because the dictionary suggests you're talking out of your ass. Can find examples of 'dived' as a regular past tense form since the 1300s with 'dove' only appearing in the 1800s.

[@76ToneCrome]

Poor Emma. If anyone is affected by today's events, don't have nightmares, do sleep well.

[@canadianmoth]

What

[@carolynhague7199]

Hysterical. Emma is gorgeous

[@tessarobins2451]

That's a very weird way to describe a child

[@carolynhague7199]

@@tessarobins2451 why?

[@tessarobins2451]

@carolynhague7199 because normally in the context of these videos, saying "so-and-so is gorgeous," refers to an adult, normally a woman, but not always. And it's...well, not explicitly sexual of course but there often is the implication of "Phwoar," behind it. If you didn't mean it that way, I apologise for coming in hot like that. It just read as bizarre to me. And with some of the oddballs you get on KZbin comments, I bristled a bit.

[@carolynhague7199]

@@tessarobins2451 well i would never have guessed that in a million years

[@thedarkness111]

I get that Chris was the correct answer but if he wasn't wouldn't he need audio description of the person? Emma could literally be any age, and any appearance as far as he's concerned, and the fact that she's a little girl is quite significant. But if he got audio description before the show, he'd have an unfair advantage over the other team member who has to come up with a lie quickly, if he got audio description during the round it would give away that he's lying, and if he doesn't get audio description the fact that he's the right answer should have been obvious to the other team.

[@Tjs736]

While the truth or lie segments might be ad lib I think the This is My segment is planned in advance

[@HassaanZone]

He would probably have got something but they'd edit it out.

[@luke-alex]

It's an interesting thought, but he was only questioned after Judi so he would have easily deduced from listening to that that Emma was a young girl. In any case, Chris being given an audio description when Emma walked onto the set wouldn't have given anything away, since they could have done this regardless of whether he was lying or not.

[@nataliedrest5679]

The two fake answers are pre-selected. You can actually see David and Judi glance down to read their replies at the beginning of their stories.

[@insidejokesarelame]

I don’t know exactly how they produce the show but I’m fairly sure the ‘This is my’ section is always pre-organised for both the truths and the lies. That is, unlike the earlier rounds it isn’t a matter of reading an unknown card for the first time.
