Angus Deayton and a host of guests return this Friday at 9pm with a second series of Would I Lie To You? the comedy panel gameshow that constantly evokes memories of the Charles and Eddie hit from 1991.

Accompanied by team captains David Mitchell and Lee Mack, this week sees Rob Brydon and Robert Webb, Gabby Logan and Krishnan Guru-Murthy join in the fun. If you haven’t seen it before, it goes something like this:

Two teams compete head-to-head with each player revealing incredible facts and (at times woefully) embarrassing personal tales for the consideration of the opposing team. Some of these yarns are true; some are not, and it’s down to the panellists to separate the facts from the fabrications. Think Call My Bluff without the archaisms and with laughs.

June 15 has been announced as the day when Radio 4 will broadcast a series of tributes to Humphrey Lyttleton, jazz trumpeter and star of I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue, who died recently.

Shows on the day will include a new tribute documentary, as well as repeats of his Desert Island Discs appearance.  There will also be a repeat of his programme about jazz, The King of the Swingers.

A newly commissioned profile of I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue, with extracts of the best programmes, will be presented by Stephen Fry.

No decision has been announced over the future of the series; Rob Brydon recently filled in for Humph while the presenter was in hospital.
