Your time starts now.

The exam.

NO cheating.

The exam will last 10 minutes.

Attempts

Here's a brief description of the contestants' attempts. Someone's probably working on writing up some additional detail, though!

  • David and Jo failed to develop any kind of system for determining when Gareth was telling the truth, operating instead by instinct and guesswork. They only got 1.5 answers correct in their quiz. Jo received a bonus point for being the best at recreating Gareth's party trick of making his tongue really big.
  • Ed, Katy and Rose immediately worked out that Gareth lied first, by asking if he was sat on a chair. The truth then always landed on Katy's questions. They got 3.5 answers correct.
