S30E03 – Milk, Italians, Parties, Sound | The Unbelievable Truth | David Mitchell

Welcome back to The Unbelievable Truth, the hit BBC Radio 4 comedy panel show where comedians attempt the impossible:
to deliver a lecture full of lies… while secretly telling the truth.

Hosted by David Mitchell, whose blend of forensic pedantry and growing exasperation makes every episode funnier, this instalment features four wildly entertaining topics: Milk, Italians, Parties, and Sound.

Expect a flood of fabricated nonsense, bizarre but real facts, theatrical attempts to cheat the system, and David’s deadpan corrections cutting through the chaos.

🎧 In this episode you’ll enjoy:

Surprisingly weird truths about milk (and a lot of lactose intolerance jokes)

Outrageous claims about Italians, pasta, gestures, and more

Party “facts” that probably shouldn’t be repeated anywhere

Sonic nonsense about sound — some true, some wildly untrue

Players accusing one another of lying while lying themselves

David Mitchell trying desperately (and hilariously) to maintain order

📻 About The Unbelievable Truth:
Created by Graeme Garden, the show challenges comedians to smuggle truths into lectures packed with ingenious lies.
Opponents must detect the hidden truths to earn points — resulting in frantic interruptions, spectacular failures, and a steady stream of surprising trivia.

A long-running favourite on BBC Radio 4, it remains one of the most clever and chaotic comedy quiz formats ever made.
