Susie Dent's tickling injury and Bob Mortimer's home dentistry turn out true, while Lee's CPR tale is a lie.
Susie Dent explains that gargalesis is very heavy tickling, while the light kind is called knismesis. She says both are real dictionary words, although the word could not be found in the dictionary on the desk, which only went from garfish to gargany, a small duck.
Yes. Susie says she was seven, hates tickling, and when she tried to get away on the landing she left her left leg behind; it is still slightly crooked. Lee's team called it a lie, but it was revealed as true.
Bob says he uses Fuji 9 cement mixed one-to-one, a leather maker's drill with sanding fitments to grind fillings down, a gamer's seat on his kitchen island under the big light, and a mirror hung on a curved Indian instrument. He does fillings and crowns but no extractions, implants or root canals.
He says he used to take 17 sugars in a cup of coffee or tea, his crowns kept coming off, and his dentist charged him 300 or 400 quid each time, so after hearing the name Fuji 9 he got hold of some through his TV work.
Jon was Susie Dent's rowing coach. He rescued her when she steered her boat backwards into a tree overhanging the river and got caught in its branches. Stacey's tortoise-birthday story and David's locksmith story were the lies.
“My dad once broke my leg during a particularly vigorous bout of gargalesis.”
“For the past 15 years, I have performed my own dentistry.”
“I used to have 17 sugars in a cup of coffee or tea.”
“This is John and he once booked me to sing Happy Birthday to his tortoise.”
“I'm Jon and I rescued Susie when she got caught in a tree.”
“On route to a meeting at the BBC, I gave CPR to an OAP.”
