"Better than a lump of coal" | One Of These People Is Lying 1x01
Was liquorice a punishment, and did Mo Farah really win a sack race? Those are among the questions waiting in The Technical Difficulties' season opener, which remains the channel's strongest daily draw among its featured episodes.
No new videos arrived this week. Instead, the library added about 18,000 views while subscribers stayed unchanged. Daily viewing is close to its usual pace: a modest week for the home of Tom Scott, Natalie Gray, Gary Brannan and Chris Joel, with plenty of improbable trivia left on the shelf.
The opener, "\"Better than a lump of coal\" | One Of These People Is Lying 1x01", has passed 200,000 views. Its description introduces the series as a new format rather like the old one, a fitting invitation from the group behind Citation Needed and Two Of These People Are Lying. The butterfly-orchestra question adds another possibility to sort from the bluffing.
The season finale, "\"I doubt your presidential parrot fact\" | One Of These People Is Lying 1x06", is drawing almost as many daily views. Its questions range from pub etiquette on the Life in the UK Test to whether Eisenhower's parrot saluted. Episode three supplies a different kind of puzzle: an app for timing gigs, hunger in sunlight and ants counting their steps. Two are true, its description promises. Deciding which one isn't is the whole attraction.
