S05E01 – CHILDBIRTH, BEER, SLEEP, SIR ISAAC NEWTON | The Unbelievable Truth | David Mitchell

Welcome to another season of The Unbelievable Truth — the comedy panel show where contestants win by lying convincingly and lose by telling the truth too obviously. 😏

In this season premiere (Series 5, Episode 1), David Mitchell challenges the panel to deliver hilariously deceptive presentations on childbirth, beer, sleep, and Sir Isaac Newton. 👶🍺😴🍎
Each talk is packed with absurd lies — and a handful of real facts waiting to be spotted… if you’re sharp enough.

Expect quick wit, expertly crafted nonsense, and that unmistakably British blend of smart comedy and deadpan delivery.

🎧 This episode features:

Surprisingly strange truths about childbirth

Brewed-up lies about beer (with a foam of real facts)

Sleep myths, mistakes, and unexpected revelations

Newtonian “truths” mixed with utterly ridiculous fiction

The delightful sarcasm and razor-sharp timing of host David Mitchell
