Talking 'porkies' this week are fashionista Trinny Woodall and League Of Gentleman and Psychoville star Reece Shearsmith on David's team; and West End star Michael Ball and acerbic critic and TV presenter Charlie Brooker attempt to lie their way to victory for captain Lee Mack.
Are a well-known, high-street chain store's mannequins really based on Trinny's body? Did Charlie lie to his girlfriend about being deaf in one ear for six years? And does Michael have a three-part ritual that he must adhere to before going on stage?
