more from same (The Goodies) |
According to an article at

The series will be recorded in March, so watch the BBC Tickets website for details about attending the recordings (and let us know if you spot the info!)
Here's a cut & paste of the article:
Would I Lie To You to return for series 5 this summer!
March 9th, 2011 by Lisa McGarry
Host Rob Brydon and team captains David Mitchell and Lee Mack are to return for new series of Would I Lie To You? on BBC One later this year
Rob Brydon is back in the host's chair for the fifth series of the award winning comedy panel show Would I Lie To You? joined once again by razor-sharp team captains David Mitchell and Lee Mack.
The new series records in March to go out on BBC One later in the year.
Each week a stellar cast of celebrity guests join the trio to reveal amazing stories about themselves and to claim that incredible lies are actually true.
The aim of the game is to fool the opposition into mistaking fact for fiction and fiction for fact. To do so, panellists will need quick-wits and a poker face. Only those who can think on their feet will survive interrogation from the other team.
The critically acclaimed Would I Lie To You? is warm, good natured, and packed with witty banter and tall tales. The stories under scrutiny are always funny, frequently ridiculous, and unbelievably, very often the truth.
Celebrity guests featuring in this series include: Sir Terry Wogan, Chris Packham, Frank Skinner, Mackenzie Crook, Victoria Coren, Gregg Wallace, Nick Hewer, Greg Davies, Bill Oddie, Katherine Parkinson, Louie Spence, Bill Turnbull, Lorraine Kelly and Barry Cryer.
Other guest returning to the show include: Miranda Hart, Dara O'Briain, Charlie Brooker, Kevin Bridges, Rhod Gilbert and Robert Webb.
