First episode of Would I Lie To You? series 18 last night (not including the Christmas special, anyway), and a strong opener for the series - with guests Harry Hill, Kojey Radical, Jill Scott and Stacey Solomon. (The only one I hadn't heard of was Kojey Radical, a musician). Harry Hill was good, as expected - I don't remember him being on it before, though he seems an obvious choice for a panelist. Everyone had their amusing moments though, Stacey Solomon perhaps surprisingly the most IMO.
Stacey Solomon was certainly good for a laugh and won her point with David, which I thought was funny - just a shame she is married to that effin' idiot Jo Squash, or whatever the prat's name is.
And Harry is always good for a laugh, and adequate replacement for when Bob Mortimer is not on.
Tim Vine is a good replacement for Bob though. It was halfway through that I remembered of course Tim was in the early Not Going Outs.
Never heard of that Cush woman though.
Love Tim Vine very funny

Yeah, and even before that, Tim and Lee worked together on 'The Sketch Show' (not the most original title in the world!) in the early 2000's. I only had vague memories of that until seeing some of it again on YouTube recently. Holds up pretty well actually, and also featured Ronni Ancona and others.
It was good to see that Tim Vine was on Lee's team on WILTY last night - and he had some of the funniest moments. (I think Tim even did the last truth/lie bit of the show last night, too, which is often given to Lee).

And Karen Taylor.
The Sketch Show deserves a lot more attention, some of the funniest sketches of the early 2000s.
